1 km from Promenade Beach, Blue Waves HomeStay is a recently renovated property set in Puducherry and offers air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and parking on-site. There is a private entrance at the homestay for the convenience of those who stay. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, a shared kitchen and luggage storage for guests.

I loved everything about this property. It really is like a home from home. If I was to come back to Pondicherry, I would definitely want to come back here. You get an apartment within the owner's house. There is a kitchen with fridge, kettle, stove etc. and the room is decorated beautifully! The bed is really comfortable, and the aircon worked really well. Viji, who manages the property, was super friendly and helpful. She assisted me with everything from renting a moped to getting my laundry done. (If you need laundry done, seriously, get it done here, by Viji's father; he did an amazing job for a bargain price). The location was down a nice residential street, 100 yards from the beach, and a short stroll from the edge of White Town. Netflix & YouTube on the TV if you need an escape from the bustle of travelling.

    The homestay, 15mins away from the beach, 5mins from the railway station and the bus stand, is a steal for a humble abode. We took the Triple AC room amidst the summer and it did not disappoint. Expect all the amenities listed to be available along with good connectivity in the roads and safety. The landlady is quite understanding and very helpful. She is always available for any help that you need. The rest will be made up for Pondicherry's beauty! Hope you enjoy your stay!! Safe Travels.
