Our stay at Barefoot Resort on Havelock Island was truly exceptional and exceeded all expectations. Nestled in the midst of lush tropical nature and just steps away from one of the most beautiful beaches in the Andaman Islands, the resort offers a perfect balance of comfort, tranquility, and authenticity. What stood out most was the outstanding service. The entire team was consistently warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly, making us feel welcome from the very first moment. Every request was handled with care and professionalism, creating a relaxed and effortless experience throughout our stay. A particular highlight was the cuisine. The food was simply excellent — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The variety and quality of the dishes were impressive, and every meal became something to look forward to. The kitchen clearly operates at a very high standard. The beach and the sea are another major highlight. The ocean is perfect for swimming, with clear, inviting water that makes it easy to spend hours in the sea. During the day, the beach remains pleasantly quiet and uncrowded, adding to the sense of exclusivity and relaxation. There are also plenty of sun loungers available, so everyone can find a comfortable spot without any hassle. The atmosphere of the resort is peaceful and immersive, ideal for those looking to disconnect and enjoy nature without sacrificing comfort. The well-maintained surroundings and thoughtful design contribute to a unique and memorable stay. The only minor downside is that some of the huts and bungalows are starting to show their age and could benefit from a bit of refurbishment. However, this does not significantly detract from the overall experience. We can wholeheartedly recommend Barefoot Resort to anyone visiting the Andaman Islands. It is a place where hospitality, quality, and natural beauty come together perfectly — and we would return without hesitation.

Barefoot havelock is set in a stunning jungle beachside location. With a pristine white sandy beach, it is safe for swimming in the warm waters. The spectacular sunset is not to be missed. Top notch service, beautiful wooden cabins and large menu of delicious food to suit all tastes. The chef visits each table and shares his passion for his work. The staff are friendly, professional and efficient. Nothing was too much trouble. Some of the highlights of our stay were the guided nature walks with Prathamesh - an extremely knowledgeable natural historian who was not only an expert on the wildlife but had also been involved in the scientific research on the animal’s ecology. We did the birdwatching tour, the night time wildlife tour and the intertidal walk. As an Eco resort, the ethos of sustainability and care for the environment is strongly evident in the way the resort is managed. We were celebrating a special anniversary and the biggest highlight was the opportunity to renew our vows in the romantic location of the beach at sunset. Customer care manager, Nikki, created a delightful experience, including garlands to exchange. This was followed by dinner by candlelight on the beach - an indulgent luxury involving many courses. Having consulted us on our general preferences beforehand, each dish was a wonderful surprise. The chef came down to the beach to tell us how he created the highlight dish - prawn curry served in a coconut shell. After a selection of five deserts, a stroll on the beach and stargazing rounded off a perfect day.

“The Best Beach Location”

This has to be THE place to stay if you want a beach stay on these islands. It is perfectly located in a forest a couple of minutes walk away from Radhanagar Beach. I'm rating this as top five beaches I've been to. Away from the busy end (at sunset) the private stretch of beach here is virtually un… lisää

This has to be THE place to stay if you want a beach stay on these islands. It is perfectly located in a forest a couple of minutes walk away from Radhanagar Beach. I'm rating this as top five beaches I've been to. Away from the busy end (at sunset) the private stretch of beach here is virtually unoccupied. The sea is very swimmable, no stones just pure white sand. We stayed six nights. Food is very good and not overpriced. We got a taxi over to the other side of the island to purchase some drinks for the room. Downsides? We arrived on a dry day which is fine but for a few days the resort was completely without beer. I enquired at the bar for three days and they said 'maybe tomorrow'. This never made sense as they supplied a bottle to the room. I think the bar manager could have been a little more proactive here. Other staff were superb
