Neemrana’s Coconut Alley - Tranquebar, Tamil Nadu

Tranquebar in Tamil Nadu is an amazing seaside destination that Neemrana opened for the world. Most naturally because this ‘land of the singing waves’ is all about history. This land of the mighty Thanjavur royals was sold to the King of Denmark in 1620 because Danish ships wanted to protect their merchandise in the Dansborg fort which they built and then ship their coveted Coromandel pepper to Europe. There, it served as the best preservative for animal meat through the winters, when no greens remained to feed them.

All Neemrana properties are ‘non–hotel’ Hotels, because they were created or adapted to be different. All efforts have been made to maintain the charm of the local architecture and tropical plants in the very natural surroundings of Neemrana’s Coconut Alley. Guests will enjoy more than the basic comforts appropriate for a rural, coastal village of Tamil Nadu, touched with the Danish influences of colonial India. Neemrana’s Coconut Alley offers a unique stay experience at this Tharangambadi beach resort of seeing and ‘living’ history along with a range of local excursions that help our guests discover the true marvels of South India: Ranganathaswamy Temple, Trichy, Brihadeeswarar Temple, Thanjavur, Sarangapani Temple, Kumbakonam, Thirunallar temple in Karaikal, and Chidambaram.

If you so decide to savour it fully, nothing about the Neemrana experience is ordinary. Soak in the sun. Feel the sea breeze as the magical night lazily settles in. Watch the stars overhead and the sea below. Neemrana’s Coconut Alley, Tranquebar resort also hosts reunions, birthdays, anniversaries, and other memorable occasions both in indoor and outdoor settings. The Nets is air conditioned while The Palmyra is a rooftop, coconut-shaded sea-view terrace.

Nostalgic beauty

 

It’s one of the most breathtaking properties right on the calm serene locale, right on the beach. It’s an absolute stunner. It literally transports you to the Dutch era. The hospitality is just too warm and comfortable. Really well mannered and hospitable staff...
