Smoking friendly vacation rentals in Auroville

Great stay, Sandip was an amazing host and was super responsive. He made sure to give us a call beforehand and had a great conversation with him before check in itself. The check in process was seamless and personally monitored which made it great. The host has a very good flair for hospitality considering his background in the luxury hospitality industry. Great stay overall.

offers what's exactly is described and promised. Location is bangalore on to the beach. Great accommodation location for building memories..

Nice spot in white town. Sanath very helpful and responsive.

We had a great stay at Ajith's place. It is situated on a street away from the main road and is very private. It is walking distance to all the shops and restaurants as well as Auroville Beach. The place was clean and easy to maintain. We did a lot of cooking and Ajith provided the gas and basic cooking items. The outside space is still under construction and I'm sure it will be even more useable in the near future. The wifi is great for remote workers and there is a very good power back up. Ajith is a very responsive and friendly host and his family were very kind to us also. All in all, we highly recommend this place to other travelers. A real gem and good value for money.

Our stay at The Coast - Ocean was wonderful. The rooms are spacious and designed for comfort. All the rooms, including the living room are on the top floor, so yes it did get hot but that wasn't a problem because the ACs were fantastically fast-cooling. The bathrooms are spacious and brightly lit. In fact, the entire property is devoid of any dingy corner. Checking in was smooth, thanks to Sushma, who was prompt, efficient, and accessible while respecting our privacy. While the comfort of the rooms may discourage you to step out, step out you must, because the beach, the iconic cafes and the restaurants are all so close! I'd definitely recommend this for a group of 4 to 6.

This place is at very good location and is the best you can get at this price point. There was a lot of privacy to us. Host was always responsive even at 4am. I will describe it a good place to stay.

I had a wonderful stay at Jumah's place in Pondicherry. She was incredibly kind and accommodating from the start-allowing me an early check-in which was a big help. The room was clean, cozy, and perfect for a relaxing stay. Unfortunately, my phone was switched off during the night and I missed my alarm, but Jumah was so understanding and even allowed me a late checkout without any issue, which I really appreciated. She also went out of her way to help me plan my trip-suggesting must-visit places around Pondicherry and even sharing contacts for bike rentals. Her hospitality really made my trip smoother and more enjoyable. Highly recommend staying here if you're visiting!

Great property, close to Promenade Beach (2 mins) in the White Colony, legit everything is a mere 5-10 mins walking away. The property was also very good, and offered a comfortable stay.

Beside the narrow street, we loved the property and it each rooms were aesthetic and properly maintained

Our stay at Mansion Natraja from 16th to 18th May was truly unforgettable. The property is easily one of the most beautiful and well-maintained heritage homes in Pondicherry, offering a perfect mix of charm, comfort, and serenity. What made the experience even more special was the warm and thoughtful hosting by Venkat Raman. From the moment we arrived, Venkat made sure we were comfortable and felt at home. He is incredibly kind, understanding, and always ready to help with anything—from local tips to personal requests. It’s rare to find a host so dedicated to making his guests feel welcome. Every corner of the mansion is aesthetically pleasing and maintained with care. Whether you're visiting with family or friends, this place is ideal for a peaceful getaway. We truly appreciate Venkat’s hospitality and highly recommend Mansion Natraja to anyone visiting Pondicherry. We’re already looking forward to coming back!

We rented the private hut space in the property and I must say, we felt home instantly! The Hut was so cozy and welcoming and it was exactly and more than what we expected. I wished that the ceiling of the first floor was even higher as we had to crawl every time we had to move. however, we got used to that too quite soon as it brought us all more together. We were allowed access to the common areas of the property. It is extremely well-maintained and it's heaven to be there. The kitchen had everything we needed and it's great we could cook ourselves, make ourselves some tea. Vignesh was a very kind and generous host. He showed us the other rooms which I'm looking forward to booking the next time I'm in Auroville. if you're looking for a place that's away from all the noise, amongst nature, economical, functional and feels at home, this is the place.

Rizas is an amazing host — warm, responsive, and thoughtful. The house is perfect for families, with all the comforts you’d want for a relaxed vacation. It’s conveniently located, with plenty of restaurants nearby and the charming French Colony just 1 km away, which made exploring the area super easy. The kitchen was well-equipped, making it great for those who enjoy cooking or just need a quick meal. Most of the main attractions are within close proximity, so getting around was a breeze. Highly recommend this stay for anyone visiting the area — it truly felt like a home away from home!

Very responsive and helpful host. Clean home which met our needs more than adequately. Due to our limited time and hectic schedule we could not spend time with the host family. We will definitely return in the cooler months and spend more time and explore the lovely city. Thank you guys!!

The home was very neat and spacious. And, the host, Jeyanandan was very friendly and responsive. The supervisor Eswar was also helpful in local navigation. Overall, we had a good and peaceful stay. Thank you.

The place was really clean and exactly like the pictures. It was curated really well. Even loved the beach so close to the property.

The place is an apartment away from home and centrally located to walk to all the sights and attractions. The apartment is private and secluded away from the noise of the city. All my requests were responded to and anything I needed help with, I was responded to promptly. Thank you 🙏🏼

Great Place! Friendly host, and scenic view

I had a wonderful stay at Nasreen’s place! This is my second time here. The location ie perfectly close to white town markets, and major tourist places, and the neighborhood felt safe and welcoming. The space itself was exactly as described: clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything I needed, including like a cozy room, fast Wi-Fi. Check-in was smooth, and communication with Nasreen was quick and helpful throughout. They evenflexibility with check-in/out. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Pondi white town!

Lovely property as advised in a peaceful, accessible neighborhood. If you're looking for a cozy and clean homestay in the center of the city, this is the place to go to. Kash was a wonderful host. She gave great instructions on everything we might had to know. We never had to ask for anything as it was all taken care of. Highly recommend.

The stay was awesome.. cute place in the heart of auroville.. close to the famous food joints and the beach as well Would definitely recommend this bnb!

My stay at this luxurious 1BHK retreat in Auroville was nothing short of spectacular! The private swimming pool was a highlight, offering the perfect spot to cool off and soak in the serene surroundings. The modern interiors were stylish and impeccably clean, creating a cozy yet upscale vibe. The bedroom was a haven of comfort, and the living area was ideal for unwinding after a day of exploring. The complete privacy made it a dream getaway for my partner and me, and the tranquil setting truly lived up to its promise of exclusivity. The hosts were gracious and ensured every detail was perfect. I can’t recommend this stunning retreat enough for anyone seeking a peaceful, luxurious escape!

Pros: 1) Covered Car Parking. 2) Responsive and thoughtful host ( she kept some eatables for us during check-in) 3) AC even in the living room . 4) Necessary amenities 5) Lift 6) Far from the hustle of the crowd but still located within walking/driving reach of the happening places. Improvement points: 1) In-house RO facility ( 10L can was provided and host did fill up whenever needed) . 2) A door peep hole will help in knowing who is knocking the door before opening it to strangers. Suggestion to reach location: Please take the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Road (which takes 1 -2 mins more than Google suggested route) as the access road in between is very narrow and roadwork was going on. Overall, definitely a place to visit for a pleasant stay in Pondicherry. thanks for the nice memories. 😃

It was an exceptional stay ; felt like a second home .Great value for money , service was good ,rooms were well equipped and comfortable . I was very pleased with my stay. I hope to be back for a longer vist in future. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting puducherry. A truly memorable stay .

Dheepa's home is centrally located and very easy to access. My family and I had a pleasant stay here. The property was exactly as described in the listing and matched the photos. The neighborhood was nice, and most major tourist attractions were within walking distance. It's also just a short walk—around 500 meters or less—to the beach and the vibrant French town. The house was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Dheepa was friendly and always available to offer support.
