The Andaman Islands, are India’s best-kept secret: stunning beaches, aquamarine coral lagoons, lush green rainforest, active volcanoes, swimming elephants, and giant fish.

‘Barefoot at Havelock’ is located on what ‘TIME Magazine’ rated as the best beach in Asia, the resort is set in tropical rainforest and fruit trees behind a pristine 2 km stretch of white sand at the quirkily named Beach No 7 on Havelock Island. Conde Nast Traveler thought that the beach was one of the 30 best in the world.

The resort consists of 19 beautifully designed and environmentally sensitive cottages hidden in the tropical foliage. The resort and cottages are spread over 8 acres, thus giving an uninterrupted feeling of nature and privacy. The barefoot philosophy propagates the use of only natural indigenous materials in the living and recreational spaces.
