Hi, I have been to Chennai a couple times in past one year. I always stayed on ECR (East coast road) on the other side of ocean in this resort called "The Only Place". I particularly liked that whole area. There is a lot to do like beaches, Amusement park (Mayazaal, VGP and MGM). Few nice restaurants and whole of ECR to drive of course. Main Chennai would be around 20 km from there. Marina beach would be around 10 km (if you care about it). Take a drive on ECR up to Pondicherry via Mahabalipuram. (the drive is abut 50km to Mahabalipuram and another 90 km to Pondicherry) Trust me you would love it. Stop whereever you feel like and you will find a beach around. Crocodile bank (nice activity for kids) in on the way around 40 km from VGP. You can spend an hour in there.
