Radisson Resort Pondicherry Bay, Maraimalai Adigal Street, Manavely Revenue Village, Puducherry, India
Fewer than a dozen resorts in Puducherry sit directly on the Bay of Bengal shoreline — Radisson Resort Pondicherry Bay is one of them. Spread across a landscaped coastal property in Manavely, roughly 10 kilometres south of the Puducherry town centre, this four-star Radisson-branded resort combines beachfront access with purpose-built event infrastructure, making it a credible option for planners who need both leisure accommodation and a functional event floor under one roof.
The resort's primary event space is the Samudra Banquet Hall, which accommodates up to 250 guests in a floating or cocktail setup and can be configured for theatre-style or hollow-square arrangements to suit corporate off-sites, leadership conclaves, and team-building retreats. A dedicated pre-function area adjoins the hall, providing a natural breakout zone for delegate registration, high-table networking, or pre-dinner cocktails. Outdoor lawn areas overlooking the bay expand the usable event footprint for MICE groups who prefer open-air general sessions or themed social evenings, with the sound of the surf as a natural ambient backdrop.
The property handles two dominant event formats with meaningfully different setups. For destination weddings and social celebrations, the beachfront lawn allows mandap or altar installations with the Bay of Bengal as a natural visual anchor — a setting that genuinely distinguishes this location from inland banquet halls in Puducherry. For corporate retreat bookings, the enclosed Samudra Hall provides climate-controlled comfort with in-house audio-visual support and Wi-Fi connectivity. Planners should note that the resort's maximum capacity of 250 guests makes it best suited to intimate or mid-scale events; large conference formats exceeding this threshold would require a different facility. In-house catering covers multi-cuisine menus with prior customisation available on request.
Radisson Resort Pondicherry Bay offers on-site guestrooms and suites, giving corporate retreat planners and destination wedding groups the ability to consolidate accommodation and event logistics at a single property — a meaningful operational advantage over standalone banquet halls in the region. The resort's dining options include a beachfront restaurant where delegates or wedding guests can move fluidly between event programming and leisure. Proximity to Puducherry's heritage French Quarter, approximately 10 kilometres away, also provides a ready excursion option that event planners frequently use to add cultural value to multi-day programmes.
For planners evaluating this property on Spalba, the listing includes verified capacity figures, space configurations, and direct enquiry tools that allow RFP submission without a phone call. The Radisson brand's standardised event protocols mean that coordinators working with the property for the first time can expect a documented pre-event walkthrough, dedicated on-site event staff during the function, and post-event feedback processes consistent with the group's service standards. Whether the brief is a two-day leadership off-site for 80 delegates or a destination wedding ceremony for 200 guests, the property's coastal setting and consolidated infrastructure make it a considered shortlist entry for mid-scale events in Puducherry.

The resort's outdoor lawns are well-suited for beachside destination weddings and evening cocktail functions, benefiting from the Bay of Bengal backdrop. Puducherry's tropical climate means outdoor events are most reliable between October and March. For monsoon-season bookings, the indoor banquet hall provides a sheltered alternative with comparable capacity. Enquire via Spalba to confirm current outdoor setup options.

The resort is located in Manavely, approximately 10 to 12 kilometres south of Puducherry city centre along the East Coast Road, a straightforward coastal drive. The nearest commercial airport is Chennai International Airport, roughly 140 kilometres away, with Puducherry Airport handling limited scheduled services. This coastal resort location suits destination event planners seeking a retreat-style Puducherry venue away from city traffic.
The resort property in Manavely offers on-site parking to accommodate private vehicles attending weddings and corporate events. Valet parking assistance is typically available for large-format events at Radisson-brand properties, though planners should confirm this for their specific event date. For outstation guests travelling by road from Chennai or Bengaluru, the East Coast Road provides direct access. Confirm parking logistics through Spalba's enquiry feature.
As a branded resort operating under Radisson standards, the property is designed to accommodate guests with mobility requirements, including ramp access and accessible room configurations. Ground-level event spaces reduce accessibility barriers for large gatherings. Planners organising inclusive events should specify accessibility requirements at the time of booking so the resort team can confirm available accommodations. Submit specific accessibility queries via Spalba.
For destination weddings at this Puducherry beach resort, booking six to twelve months in advance is strongly advisable, particularly for peak season dates between October and February when the coastal climate is most favourable. Corporate events and smaller social gatherings may find shorter lead times workable, though key weekends fill quickly. Spalba's live enquiry tool allows planners to check real-time date availability and initiate a hold.

Start the planning conversation by sending an enquiry through Spalba.
The resort generally permits external décor vendors and event specialists subject to prior approval and compliance with in-house safety and operational guidelines. This allows wedding planners to bring preferred florists, lighting designers, and entertainment vendors. In-house coordination support remains available regardless of external vendor involvement. Planners should disclose all third-party vendor requirements when submitting their event brief through the Spalba listing enquiry form.
As a branded hotel property, Radisson Resort Pondicherry Bay issues GST-compliant tax invoices for all corporate event and accommodation billing, supporting company reimbursement and input tax credit claims.
