WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL
Just steps away from the blue waters of the Bay of Bengal near Mamallapuram lie Isles Luxury Beach Villa (adjacent to its sister property Cove Luxury Beach Villa) waiting to welcome you. Isles Luxury Beach Villa was built around the large swimming pool, which has been preserved for over 20 years. It takes inspiration from Moroccan designs, with rooms spread out so the pool is always just a step away.
Many skylights around the property open the space out even indoors. Isles welcomes couples keen to book individual poolside luxury rooms or families who want to book the whole villa.
Only 15 minutes from Mamallapuram, a hub for delicious seafood and home to many UNESCO heritage sites like the Pancha Rathas and Krishna’s Butterball, Isles and Cove offer a beach holiday for you to remember.
Isles can be booked together with its sister villa Cove Luxury Beach Villa as an 8-bed property.
THE STORY OF ISLES
Over two decades ago, near Nemmeli Beach off East Coast Road, stood a clubhouse shared by six families. They spent many weekends here, splashing around in its vast pool and playing on the beach. But, after a tsunami in 2004 left the area in disarray, the clubhouse stood vacant. Eventually, the land was divided up and bought by one of the families, who yearned to inject life back into their childhood beach house. This was the birth of Isles and Cove.
Isles Luxury Beach Villa was built around the pool, with four rooms so people could renew the bonds of togetherness and have a celebration.
The clubhouse became Cove Luxury Beach Villa, the adjoining villa, which has been kitted with a party terrace and gaming lounge, giving every member of the family something to enjoy.
Visit Isles and Cove, either individually or in combination as a big group, to enjoy a unique ECR beach house experience that adults and children alike will love.
