“The private beach and tranquil surroundings were simply good!”view full review

A beacon of refined contemporary opulence, Fortune Chariot Beach Resort is an iconic retreat perched along the pristine shores of Mahabalipuram, just steps away from the UNESCO World Heritage sites of the Five Rathas and the Shore Temple. Upon arrival, guests are greeted by an inviting lobby adorned with tasteful art pieces that echo the rich heritage of the region. The scent of luxury mingles with the refreshing sea breeze, creating an immediate sense of calm. Beyond the lobby lies an expansive resort that seamlessly combines modern elegance with traditional charm. Picture-perfect ocean views from the suites become the backdrop for tranquil afternoons, while the soothing sound of gently lapping waves provides the perfect soundtrack to any stay. The sumptuous dining options include Paanam, where guests can indulge in a culinary journey, savoring both local and continental delights in an elegantly chic atmosphere. The resort's expansive grounds cover 45 acres of lush vegetation, perfect for leisurely strolls, and the exclusive access to a pristine 1 km stretch of private beach makes it a true coastal paradise.
