The Part Nobody Warns You About

Most of the stress in an Indian wedding is coordination — the hall, the caterer, the decorator, the parking, and four phone numbers that never agree. Here the lawn, the kitchen, the cottages and the parking are all ours. You call one person.

Before you call

Will It Fit

Tell us the occasion and the headcount and we will tell you which setting suits, where people sleep, and whether you should be taking the whole property.

Everyone attending, not only those staying the night.

The Event Lawn

Open ground, steps from the sea

  • All fourteen cottages sleep 38, so the wedding party stays on site and the rest travel in from Ongole, thirty minutes away.
  • At this size we would recommend taking the whole resort, so no other guests share the property.
  • Parking for cars and buses is alongside the lawn.
  • Catering is our own kitchen — one vendor, one contact, one invoice.

The practical part

Parking, Power and Timings

  • Parking for cars and buses immediately alongside the lawn
  • Power and lighting run to every venue
  • Music until 10pm, in line with local norms
  • Guests arriving from Ongole, Guntur and Vijayawada by road
  • Ongole railway station is thirty minutes away — we will collect
The whole resort from the air: fourteen thatched cottages in two rows, the pool and event lawn behind them, and the beach and the Bay of Bengal beyond the coast road.
