The service is great, and the staff is quite welcoming. The food was excellent - we ordered noodles and manchurian and Kushal and his team were able to adjust the food to our liking of it being less oily and spicy and loaded with veggies.

Deluxe Rooms are small for which we paid more compared to Standard rooms, No garden area in the hotel. Food is nice but Restaurant service is pathetic, they cannot serve 2-3 families sitting and eating together with required pace. Every time we waited for the Roti's and lost appetite after sitting idle for 10-12 minutes. I think Restaurant is short staffed. ITC welcome at a 2 min walk is recommended for food and stay and sea views. If you are staying in this hotel by chance I would heavy recommended eating dinner/lunch buffet in ITC welcome which we did last day and to our surprise was less priced and a better seaside sitting area with fresh breeze where you can spend hours. For our Bartang Trip we asked for a packed breakfast and asked for real Juices with some extra cake slices. Tou our surprise Rel juice were replaced with frooties of 10 INR each, 1 cake slice per member and sandwich and banana. If the hotel can serve Juice in free buffet breakfast, why can't they pack as per customer requirement. I think this was very cheap on behalf of hotel. We asked Some apples with Bananas which they gently refused.…

Dear Guest, Greetings from SeaShell! Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you experienced during your stay. We value your insights; hence, we investigated your issues with our team and would like to clarify a few things. All the details about our room, amenities, hotel amenities and space are clearly mentioned on our website. We are very transparent about our offerings and are always available to our guests for any clarifications. Secondly, you have expressed disappointment about your dining experience with us. We would like to clarify that, during your travels to the Havelock Islands and back to Port Blair, we did accept your request and provided you with a buffet breakfast available at the respective hotels even after you arrived after the breakfast hours. We value our guests requests and are very accommodating. The delay in roti was only for a few minutes since the kitchen was closed and preparing for lunch service. I hope that you can be understanding towards our staff. All our guests are provided with a standard packed snack box, not breakfast, when travelling to the Baratang Islands. The Baratang Islands trip starts in the early morning at 3 a.m., when the kitchen is closed. This snack box has a sandwich, muffin, banana and boiled egg (if requested), along with a tetra pack of juice. The choice of tetra pack of juice is always subject to availability, but we have noted your feedback and passed it on to the F & B team. If you have any further grievances, please feel free to reach out to our Guest Relations team directly. We are committed to addressing your feedback and ensuring that your future experiences with us exceed your expectations.
