Andaman Castle

The owner made things easy for us, with thoughtful help arranging everything from a doctor on call and food delivery to an airport shuttle, two-wheeler rentals, cabs, autos, ferry bookings, and sightseeing tours. The service and attention to detail really stood out. The resort itself is a lovely place to relax. The beach is right in front, the view is breathtaking, and the spacious rooms were spotless and well maintained. The food was delicious, too. Highly recommended for a comfortable, convenient, memorable getaway.

We enjoyed the sea view from our spacious, airy room, and there’s a garden out front with room for kids to play. Staff were helpful and well behaved, and the in-house restaurant served excellent food in a shared dining area, generally used by four rooms and furnished with a dining table. Choices included Bengali, North Indian, South Indian, and Chinese dishes. It’s far enough from the city to avoid the chaos, and Flag Point is nearby, but you’ll need a car. The property is uphill, so walking is a bit tough, and public transport isn’t readily available. You can talk to Amir about two-wheelers, and he can also arrange a cab, auto, or tour. The stay had a homely feel.

We booked both properties for our wedding stay, and nearly 50 guests fit comfortably. Every guest was happy, and the sea view made a lovely setting. The homestay is clean and well maintained, with major places easy to reach. We even used it for our bridal reveal and pre-wedding photoshoot, and it was the perfect backdrop. Aamir, the owner, was patient and hospitable, and the staff were just as helpful. He was always ready to arrange what we needed, so everything felt hassle-free. The price was very reasonable, and we were highly satisfied. We’d choose this homestay again without hesitation when we visit Port Blair.

We booked sea-view rooms and enjoyed the balcony view, plus the open space outside where you can sit and look out at the sea. The food was excellent, and Flag Point is about a 1 km walk away. An evening stroll and a try of the roadside eateries could be nice with family or friends.
