Laxmi Continental Resort Andaman and Nicobar Islands

The average rating for the Laxmi Continental Resort is 5/10. This is situated in Neil Island, 2-3 kms from the Neil Jetty. Check your room amenities before unpacking your bag. Our AC and fridge was not cooling so we had to change our room. First thing first, you won't be able to enjoy internet or mobile tower for any other network except BSNL or Airtel. WiFi network is very poor on the entire island. Don't go for taxi's or auto rikshaw's. Otherwise, you'll end up spending lot of money on conveyance. Get a scooter on rent and roam around. There is a monopoly of auto drivers. They all will charge high and same amount. But, since you won't be having network in your mobile, you won't be able to roam around freely. Carry some cash always as you would not be able to make online payments at most of the places. Never ever try to book Nautika or Macruzz jetty for tranfer between the islands otherwise, you'll end up vomiting during your entire travel as they jumps a lot on the ocean. Always book Green Ocean jetty. Their seats are very comfortable and travel is smoother and stable. They don't have a bar available inside. You'll have to go to the nearest bar for drinks and fun. We went to Samsara for dinner on both days. We ordered Veg Noodles, Biryani, Paneer Pakora, Paneer Butter Masala, Mix Veg, Tawa Roti during our stay which was of 4/5 rating in quality and 1/5 rating in quantity. So, don't be fascinated by their menu prices, as their portion size of every dish/food item is very small (less than half plate). However, we did breakfast in buffet as we have opted for that. No point of taking the buffet from the restaurant as their food items in the buffet were not upto the mark. Always get your breakfast packed when you're checking out from the hotel if you've opted for it. The check-out time for all the hotels in Andaman is 8am.

The location of the hotel was very good, the rooms and the whole complex was neat and clean, the dining area was nice, breakfast was very good and the staff were courteous. It was a very pleasant stay in the hotel.

Considering the remoteness of Neil Island and considering that there’s not much to do or see, a one day stay is sufficient. The hotel works for this purpose. If I have to be nit-picky, I’d complain about a half broken toilet seat. But since it didn’t cause any trouble, I’d let go of it. The food is Okayish, neither great, nor bad. It is just a good enough stay for one night.
