Havelock Island Vacation Rentals

"Animal and Environmental harm caused by employees I recently stayed at Silver Sand Resort on Havelock Island and was deeply disturbed by what I witnessed. Several times, I saw resort employees throwing rocks at stray dogs that were calm, friendly, and non-aggressive. The island dogs are well accustomed to tourists, and Havelock Island is also widely known to be rabies free. In one shocking incident, an employee hit a harmless dog with a rock as it walked past the property. The dog cried out in pain, upsetting everyone nearby. When I asked the employee to stop, he said the resort manager had instructed staff to do this. If guests are uncomfortable around the dogs, there are far more humane ways to handle the situation than hurting innocent animals. This behavior reflects very poorly on the resort and its management. To make matters worse, employees were also seen littering on the beach and throwing garbage into a neighboring lot (photos attached), showing a serious lack of environmental responsibility. Future guests who value animal welfare, ethical tourism, and environmental care should be aware of these practices."

"The Bathtub water was extremely dirty, and staying here felt like a complete waste of money. From the time of check-in, I reported issues with the Wi-Fi, TV, and telecom services, but none of them were resolved properly. The maintenance staff stayed in the room until almost 12 AM trying to fix the issues, yet the Wi-Fi and TV were still not working. I also spoke with the manager regarding these concerns, but unfortunately, I did not receive any proper support or assistance. Overall, my personal experience was horrible, and the service was very disappointing and unprofessional. If you are looking for a peaceful and enjoyable vacation, I would strongly recommend considering other options."

"Beautiful expansive property with the most welcoming and helpful staff. Taj never disappoints."

"Hotel con spiaggia, pulito e con piscina, molto tranquillo. Le stanze sono ampie e lo staff è sempre disponibile, gentile e cordiale. Il cibo del ristorante è buono. La colazione è principalmente indiana, ma c’è sempre qualcosa per tutti i gusti. Consigliatissimo!"

"I had a wonderful experience at this hotel from start to finish. The check-in process was smooth and the staff was extremely welcoming and professional. The room was spotless, spacious, and very comfortable. The bed was cozy, and everything from the linens to the bathroom amenities felt high quality. The location was perfect — close to restaurants and shops, yet still quiet and relaxing at night. Housekeeping did a great job, and I appreciated the attention to detail throughout the property. Overall, it was a stress-free and enjoyable stay. I would definitely come back and recommend this hotel to anyone looking for comfort, cleanliness, and excellent service. "

"Lovely staff, lovely property. Even the food was amazing. Can't wait to visit again"

"Jacuzzi didn’t work. No hot water as their heating system wasn’t working. It was a horrible experience with service staff as well. "

"The setting with its own private beach is very nice. Radha nagar beach is absolutely beautiful. Food was really good. Very clean."

"Beach side is the best catch for this place"
