Tilar Siro, Andamans - CGH Earth

The 23 Best Places to Go in India in 2023

"For the longest time, a trip to the Andamans meant picking between homestays or the only premium boutique hotel on the island. That’s changed in the past few years, with resorts like Taj Exotica Resort & Spa and Jalakara. The most recent entrant to the mix is Tilar Siro, a CGH Earth outpost on Havelock Island (now, Swaraj Dweep). The 25-key property is breezy, green, and immersive. You can learn about the island’s history and food, take scuba diving courses, and enjoy guided walks through the dense rainforests. There’s a lot to do beyond Havelock, including sea safaris at Cinque Island and kayaking expeditions with stargazing thrown in. Take a day trip to Barren Island to visit India’s only active volcano or take a ferry to Little Andaman Island for pristine beaches and lagoons."
