I stayed in the property with my wife and my 3-year old daughter from January 19 to January 21, 2025. We were accompanied to the room by Ms. Shaheen, the front desk manager. The room was spacious, clean and was the best among the ones we stayed at in the Andamans. The private beach was a major highlight and was very well maintained. There were two different swimming pools that were also well maintained. The property overall was managed very well. However, the main laggard in this entire experience is the restaurant. We had a candlelight dinner by the beach on the 20th. of January. The starters were nicely made but the chicken tikka was very dry inside. We observed the same trend across different chicken dishes where the chicken was overcooked and was not moist at all. Chicken Dijon tasted a lot bitter than expected. Towards the end of our meal, we were told that the restaurant had run out of caramel custard which we ordered at least 7 hours before our meal. Surprisingly, the Greek salad (a vinaigrette based one) appeared just before the dessert whereas these types of salads generally appear as appetizers in the Western world. The restaurant here needs serious improvement and it's important considering the few choices of eateries outside the hotel. I will specifically mention Mr. Ravi Chhetri for his impeccable service throughout the dinner. He also took some good photographs of us and strived hard to make the dinner experience enjoyable for us. While checking out, I was initially asked for the payment of the candlelight dinner which I had paid even before arriving at Havelock. Hence the billing system needs an upgradation too.
