The Hut Style Rooms will appeal a lot to some and be a negative point to some others. Rooms are clean and well maintained. Rates are a bit high when compared to similar hotels in elsewhere- but this is Havelock. Everything needs to be brought in via boat/helicopter. Check-in was smooth. Restaurant had good food, well-cooked and enjoyable. They have... More

My overall experience was very good. Fantastic location, good ambience and excellent service. Best Experience is definitely the extremely thoughtful and helpful staff. Very accommodating. The rooms are pretty neat laid out with no frills attached. The beach is a few yards away. Though the approach to the beach is to be ironed out, the breach makes up for all... More

We stayed for 13 nights at The Wild Orchid, and had been prior to our stay with them to eat a few times and found 9/10 of the staff very friendly, they all speak fantastic english and are generally speaking a really nice team with exception to maybe one guy who worked in the restaurant who quite frankly was lazy,...

Wild Orchid has nothing special about it other than the restaurant wild snapper they have which serves great food. The rooms were small and the walk towards the beach is very bad, there is some construction going on next to the resort which is also one of the negatives of this resort. The food is just one positive of the... More

Its a little bit overpriced, but I... More

The accommodation is average but overpriced for what you get. - The room smelled like urine and many areas of the hotel smelled like sewage as there is an open sewage running from the hotel to the beach. - The hotel is not directly on the beach but you have to walk through a construction site to get to the...

The property is small but pretty. Its very near to the beach, inot too good for swimming in my opinion as it is... More

We stayed here in February 2013. Wonderful place. Quaint cottages. Fantastic service. Location is good (the sea is a couple of minutes walk away) but there's no view of the sea from the resort. The same folks run another resort call Emerald Gecko very close by - some of the cottages there are right on the beach. The resort's restaurant... More

We stayed there two nights in the older huts - to the right of the lobby. Definitely try to book the newer huts. The older ones had old mosquito blood stains all over the wall, AC outdated and loud. We had a look at the newer cabins and they are worth the 500 rup extra per night. The restaurant is... More
