The staff was very friendly and the room was nice and clean. Really worth your money. Quiet place to take some rest. It is better to come with a 2-wheeler, to reach easily Mahabalipuram if this is your goal. I liked it a lot.

The Mahizh Home

Mahizh Home is a two storey villa with two bedrooms and a shared living area on each of the floors. The ground floor was all ours for the 24 hours we stayed over. The place is airy and comfortable, with marble floors suited to the environment. But what made our short stay special is the 5 stars service delivered by Mani, the caretaker of the property. This is a cream of a person who has been really helpful in all aspects of our stay (providing accurate advance information (easy to join on WhatsApp), sending a taxi in the wee hours of the morning at the Railway station to pick us up, ordering food (dinner and breakfast and delivering it), allowing for early check-in and late check-out. Not very often in almost 50 years of travels, we have met such a kind and dedicated person. Whenever you travel to Mahabilipuram consider Mahizh Home first. Note that this villa would be ideal for friends / family groups of up to four couples.

Great host who speaks English and arranged a well priced tour to the amazing archaeological sites for us. The room was clean and everything worked. The location is well away from the noisy streets and only steps from the beach. Plenty of restaurants within easy walking distance, including local ones on the main road. Good value for money
