Independent, Henry Lawrence Island hotels

"The staff are outstanding and the location is beautiful. The food is very good and they have a good range of alcoholic beverages. The Settlers experience is excellent. Everything is kept very clean. Things they could improve, the villa we stayed in (12) could do with refurbishing. It is comfortable but for example the bathroom floor is slats and you can lose earrings etc through the gaps. It also creaks loudly! The only other thing is that the food delivery can be slow at times. "

"Wonderful luxury resort in quiet location situated on an idyllic beach. Staff were all superb, very friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. Food in the restaurant was great! "

"Prices of food and beverages.. exorbitant… Breakfast… very poor… and disorganised…the client composition not compatible with the room prices… client profile needs improvement… to make the facility more up market niche… if that is the management objective… prices indicate the clients will be more up market but on ground that’s not so.."

"Beach side is the best catch for this place"

"Beatfully designed rooms nestled in the jungle! Food was top notch and the staff were great. The bar and pool table is an added bonus. The location is a blessing - a really quiet location set back from the road toRadhanagar - but be prepared to get a scooter to get around. "

"5 mins walk to radhanagar beach. The staff at the hotel are on top of requests and are attentive. The property is clean but for the price, rooms need a bit of a revamp to brighten up the space. Room service menu too needs an update. "

"Outstanding hospitality by every member we interacted with, right from the reception to the wonderful people who served us, the marine biologist, the chef and the singer at the cafe. Very appreciative of the prompt response and kindness that we experienced."

"After a disastrous stay at Silver Sand Sea Princess I was dreading this stay just as much! I really missed a beat when checking in as I hadn’t paid for the room so should’ve just cut my losses and stayed elsewhere. Unsurprisingly the WiFi wasn’t working when I arrived (same as the other Silver Sand Sea Princess) yet they have WiFi to take payment! Staff on reception couldn’t care less that you can’t get online. The woman even laughed when I said all I wanted to do was send a message to my husband to let him know I was ok (travelling solo). It took for the general manager to let me log onto his personal WiFi to send the message which I appreciated- thank you. I had requested a high floor room and this is what I was allocated. Sadly I wasn’t informed I would be sharing it with pigeons ratching around in the roof all day and then when they went to bed the bats came out! Sad to say sleep was extremely deprived that night 👎 Next day I requested to move to a ground floor room which I don’t like when I’m staying alone but at least I could have a decent nights sleep. My request was accommodated and that room was much quieter. 👍 However I did decide to move to another hotel for my last night as there’s not much to do in that area and I was bored stiff. On a positive the beach was nice and relaxing, food in the restaurant was good and staff (apart from Reception) were smiley and friendly. The 3 stars are for the food, staff and accommodating my room change."
