Sea Shell Port Blair

I researched many hotels in port Blair and narrowed down to Sea Shell and I was glad I did. From the time we arrived till the time we left, everything was up to par. Breakfast was excellent especially the thosai. Salt and Pepper restaurant has outstanding food and we had lunch there with fresh crabs and fish. The rooms are very clean, AC cold and good water pressure. The icing on the cake is Amaya the roof top bar which serves excellent cocktails, chilled beers and super food. The view of the Andaman sea from Amaya is amazing. The singer every night who is from Calcutta croons out english and Hindi songs. The place gets busy in the evening. Finally, sea shell staff are the stars. From the hardworking and always obliging GM Subaia to staff Dolerich, Swetty Mery, Shekar and the rest of the Amaya team, nothing was too difficult and they were all accommodating. True it’s not sea front but it’s a 15 min ride to the corbyn beach. We booked a room which unfortunately faced the city and was not much of a view. Asked for a sea view but they could not oblige. All in all a good stay and a super hotel.

The best things about this stay 1. Top-notch service from check-in to restaurant to room service to check-out 2. Closely located to major attractions such as Cellular Jail and Jetty points 3. Tasty food 4. Clean and Hygienic. What was missing was pool and gym.

I wish I had booked Seashell earlier. The hotel is just 10 minutes from the airport and 15 minutes from the Cellular Jail, making it very centrally located. The staff went above and beyond to provide excellent service, and the hotel had a warm, welcoming ambiance. The balcony and its view were particularly enjoyable. While the in-room dining could use improvement, the breakfast was delicious, with a buffet offering a good variety of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. Perched on a hill, the property offers a lovely ocean view from the rooms, adding to the overall experience.

Place is good & clean, however the food at the restaurant was not great for the price below average vegetarian food. Cellular jail is very close by 20mins walk from the hotel.

Neat and clean hotel, good quality food. Spa is not available at this property however mentioned on board. Presently we are at swaraj deep.

Hotel was rooms are very small restaurant ambience is below average roof top is bar only that should be resturent space and hotel is quite fixate on timings
