I had a very relaxing stay here. Vasanthi and her mother made me feel very welcome and the accommodation is excellent. Everything you need is there, with all the facilities including a comfortable bed. The location is great so I was able to walk to the beach, shops and restaurants very easily. If you are looking for a comfortable home from home in a quiet area of Chennai, I would certainly recommend this homestay.

I spent a wonderful two weeks in Chennai, and Vasanthi and her husband helped me a lot to make those two weeks just so. They are both very helpful and caring to their guests. I felt really comfortable and at ease in their home. The room was very well prepared, I had my own bathroom, washing machine, refrigerator, AC, 5g internet, etc. I also had a simple breakfast included in the price. The neighborhood is very quiet, with many restaurants within walking distance. There are also stores nearby where you can buy all the things you need, and a great Elliot's beach. There is a bus stop not far from the house where you can find connections to most places in Chennai.
Thank you and see you next year! JakubDecember 2016

Lovely family, so kind and hospitable! The apartment is beautiful, very clean and the neighborhood is green, peaceful and safe. Was really happy staying there and I will definitely opt for this place again next time I visit Chennai.

Really enjoyed the stay! Vasanthi, her mother and husband were very helpful with quite a few things I had to do in the beginning of my journey (Indian sim, post sending, arrange taxi, showed me around, etc.). Happy, that I found this family. Also had some good talk! Really appreciated it! I will come back before I leave this beautiful country. Regards, Moritz
