Amazing view, living by the Ocean. Sunrise by the sea on the tarrace is priceless. Rooms totally clean, staff is so lovely and welcoming. The distance to Pondicherry and Auroville is at hand. I could not stay at the better place. Everything is perfect. 💛

Wonderful quiet place in the forest. Surrounded by nice people. I really spent a beautiful Christmas time with those guys. There was cacao ceremony and estatic dance event on Sunday, powerful and meditative journey. I want to stay longer next time. Thanks Devansh, Art Forest team and guests 🙏

The staff is friendly and helping. Though it was 6 bed dormitory but there was no disturbance at all. The food is also very light and tasty. Got a chance to had some conversation with Vijji akka(cook), she is awesome.

Not comparable to an actual backpacker hostel. This was my first (and last) one in India. I must have stayed in hundreds of backpacker hostels by now, but none like this before. The staff was unmotivated, I couldn’t even get bed sheets or a towel on check in and I had bed bugs in my bed too. All that for a whooping 25€ per night in a 6 bed dorm. Not again… at least not for me.
