Sea Shell Neil

The location of the hotel is very convenient, only minutes by car from the ferry jetty. The property is very well maintained and has access to a rocky and mangrove filled beach, so swimming is not an option. Like in Port Blair and Havelock, check in and out were smooth and efficient here. Our room was specious and really well maintained. Room had tea/coffee facility, electronic safe and TV with lot of Indian channels. Attached bathroom was large with a big shower cubicle. Water heater worked perfectly and all necessary toiletries were there. All rooms have a covered seating area in front. Please note that the hotel provided free wifi really didn't work and we had to depend on our own connection. Hotel has only one restaurant where breakfast also gets served. Room service is also available. Like other hotels of the same group, breakfast had decent Indian options but western options were limited. Egg and Dose could be ordered as per one's own choice. Overall food quality was good. Staff attitude were very good and cooperative. The housekeeping even provided a multiplug upon request. Like in Havelock, a third party provides activity options for hotel guests. We wanted to do the star gazing option but due to overcast sky the activity got cancelled both evenings. Please note that the activity costs are high. Overall we had a pleasant stay at this hotel and do not hesitate to recommend.

Located close to to the jetty, this hotel is beautifully designed. The rooms are spacious with good beds and amenities. Just a few feet of walk in the backyard takes one to the rocky beach and mangroves. The restaurant and services were good. Top of my list is the activity center, Habitat institute of eco tourism. Hershal and Aditya manning the center were our educators and guides for the star gazing and early morning reserve forest walk and talk. Both these activities were liked immensely by all of us in the compact groups. I would love to go back and strongly advice any one planning a trip to Neil island to visit the center and participate in the well curated activities

Very prompt and neat housekeeping and service. Good hygienic food. Spacious rooms with dim lighting. Near to Bharatpur jetty. Courteous staff with great SOPs. They also have a inhouse dive centre great for fun dives. One can enjoy mangrove beach view from the property.

Lots of good things to say about this place *check in was efficient *staff were always helpful and courteous *the room was spotlessly clean with an extremely comfortable bed *the aircon and ceiling fan are very quiet enabling you to get really good sleep *good shower *nice balcony *well tended grounds *extensive breakfast buffet Things to be aware of *it’s not possible to swim here, although there are two beaches relatively near by *we found the evening meal menu offerings to be a little bland when compared with local restaurants, however, the service is excellent

"Had a wonderful stay with great service and a well-maintained facility. The food was fantastic, and the staff, especially Urmila, were very polite and attentive. Their hospitality was commendable. However, the coffee and milkshakes didn’t meet expectations. Overall, a pleasant experience, and we truly appreciate the team’s efforts."
