We traveled to Pondicherry a couple of weeks ago and stayed at one of the more unique places we have found during our time in India. We stayed the Dune Eco resort, which I highly recommend. The resort offers quite an array of different types of rooms. They vary from fully enclosed and air conditioned to down right primitive. We chose the latter and stayed in a hut constructed of bamboo lashed together with rope with a palm frond roof. Of course this was not the least bit airtight and we could see the ground right through the floor and the sky right through the ceiling. I slept like a baby both nights, lulled to sleep by the ceaselessly crashing waves on the nearby beach. The beds came with netting so mosquitoes were not a problem. Anything else that might get in, we just didn't think about. After all, we KNEW there was a rat waiting for us back in our house in Bangalore.
