STORY

Claytides

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Pool View Room

A serene ground-floor sanctuary anchored by a custom king bed built directly into the architecture. The suite opens up to views of the temple-tank pool and includes a signature open-air shower. Vintage Kodak prints and smooth red floors complete the calming, meditative vibe. The room can accommodate a maximum of three guests.

Garden View Room

Bathed in sunlight and immersed in greenery, this garden-facing room offers two single beds, making it ideal for friends or family. Textured stucco walls serve as a gallery for expressive street photography, while the en-suite bath and ample storage ensure a comfortable, nature-filled stay. The room can accommodate a maximum of three guests.

Terrace Room

Perched on the first floor, this light-filled haven combines rustic charm with an elevated ambience. The room features a comfortable king bed and unique patterned art inspired by travels through Spain. With the breezy terrace just steps away across the corridor, it offers a private and tranquil vantage point. The room can accommodate a maximum of two guests.

Central Octagon Lounge

The heart of the villa - an octagonal gathering space with red oxide floors and handcrafted ceilings. Styled with coffee-table books, curated décor, and comfortable seating, it’s perfect for reading, conversation, or unwinding in the quiet geometry of the home. On one side, a small nook is filled with Raja Ravi Varma prints and houses the antique wrought-iron staircase leading to the first floor.

Living Room

A warm, inviting space with relaxed seating, and a smart TV with OTT access. Ideal for family downtime, movie nights, or simply enjoying the soft lighting and earthy ambience.

Informal Dining & Games Nook

Set within an arched alcove, this versatile room features a 4-seater games table, and a variety of board games, children’s toys, and books. It functions as both a cosy dining corner and a playful family game space.

Dining Room

An intimate dining space with a 6-seater table and the owners’ collection of antique utensils displayed across the room. The warm materials and soft lighting create a nostalgic, homely dining atmosphere.

First-Floor Terrace

A peaceful open terrace with views of the gardens and palms. Ideal for sunrise coffee, reading, or evening conversations. Accessible from the first-floor corridor, offering guests a private outdoor nook.

Entrance Veranda

A charming, shaded wrap-around veranda that welcomes guests into the villa. With seating and views of the gardens, it’s a perfect spot to pause, enjoy the breeze, or sip morning tea.

Temple Tank–Inspired Pool

Modelled after traditional South Indian temple tanks, this distinctive pool offers shallow edges for kids to play and two levels of wrap-around seating in the water for adults to unwind over a drink. Its covered design makes it comfortable to use even during hot summers or rainy weather.

Entrance Portal & Gardens

A lush lawn framed by swaying palms, flowering plants, and open green space for children to run and play. Stone benches, quiet pockets of shade, and gentle breezes make it a beautiful outdoor extension of the villa’s calm. Together with the Tamil-style entrance portal and thinnai, the outdoor spaces lend itself to events which involve intimate events.

Air-Conditioned Hall & Events Kitchen

Set apart from the main villa, this serene, air-conditioned hall is ideal for intimate celebrations, small weddings, creative retreats, and focused meetings. Its peaceful setting beside the palms makes Claytides a perfect place to both stay and host meaningful gatherings, blending comfort, privacy, and quiet elegance in one destination.
