The Dune Eco Village and Spa

An icon of coastal tranquility, The Dune Eco Village and Spa graces the Coromandel coast of Tamil Nadu, South India. As you arrive, the warm sea breeze mingles with the scent of tropical flora, setting the stage for an unforgettable escape. The lobby captures attention with its seamless blend of traditional aesthetics and contemporary design, characterized by earthy tones, local artistry, and bamboo features that whisper of sustainability. Signature elements, like the impressive wood-carved sculptures and expansive views of the azure waters, evoke a sense of both luxury and place. Beyond the inviting entrance lies a multitude of experiential gems: fresh seafood grilled on demand at the Seafood Bar, diverse culinary delights at Fun Restaurant, and a soothsayer of wellness at the spa, where Ayurvedic treatments like traditional Indian massages beckon. From the inviting warmth of the poolside bar to the tranquility of the heated chlorine-free pool, every corner promises relaxation and rejuvenation.

Explore the Local Area

Conveniently located along the popular Pondicherry-Chennai ECR Road, The Dune Eco Village and Spa is perfectly positioned for travelers eager to explore the charming coastal landscape. Just a short 15-minute drive away, Auroville Beach offers sun-kissed sands and a vibrant community, while the serene vistas of Serenity Beach and the bustling Pondicherry Promenade are nearby attractions. For those considering cultural exploration, Matrimandir is 9 kilometers from the hotel, making it an easy venture into architectural awe. Further enjoyment awaits at the nearby Sri Karaneswar Nataraja Temple, overlooking the horizon of the sacred city. The Puducherry Railway Station and the airport are both around a 30-minute drive, providing seamless connectivity to the broader region.
