About this stay
Hornbill Nest Resort stands as a peaceful sanctuary in Port Blair, the gateway to the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Set amid dense tropical greenery and just a short drive from the azure waters of the Bay of Bengal, the resort is designed to harmonize with its natural surroundings. The architecture draws inspiration from traditional island dwellings, using locally sourced materials and open-air layouts that invite the breeze and bird song. Each room and cottage is equipped with modern comforts — air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and private sit-outs — while retaining a rustic charm that reflects the region's cultural heritage.
The resort's commitment to eco-tourism is evident in its waste management, rainwater harvesting, and solar energy initiatives. A highlight for guests is the guided hornbill and endemic birdwatching walks led by knowledgeable naturalists, offering rare sightings of the Narcondam hornbill, Andaman woodpecker, and other avian treasures. The multi-cuisine restaurant serves freshly caught seafood, coconut-infused curries, and tropical fruits, all sourced from local fishermen and farmers.
Beyond the property, guests can arrange day trips to historic Cellular Jail, the colonial ruins of Ross Island, and the coral reefs of North Bay. The resort also organizes sunset cruises, mangrove kayaking, and visits to indigenous community villages for a deeper cultural immersion. With attentive staff, personalized service, and a focus on sustainable luxury, Hornbill Nest Resort delivers an authentic Andaman experience that lingers long after departure.
