Comfortable, hassle free experience!
Pros:

The stay was nice, very comfortable and peaceful!!

The manager Mr Susmit made everything very smooth for us, from booking pickup cab to all activities in Havelock for 2days, we didn’t have to manage these things on our own. This made our stay in Havelock and our experience quite comfortable and hassle free.

Great service and location, but very small rooms.
Pros:

The location of the property was very good, and the breakfast was enjoyable. The staff was polite, helpful, and always ready to assist with whatever we needed. They even provided a complimentary pickup, booked all our activities, arranged scooty rentals, and helped with cabs, which made the stay very convenient. Overall, the service was excellent.

The only downside was the room size—it was quite small, with hardly any space to open our bags comfortably. However, the property does have access to a private beach. We went there to watch the sunrise, and it was a lovely experience.

Cons:

The rooms were very small, with not enough space to open bags comfortably.

Had a comfortable and pleasant stay at Senses Hotel Havelock with clean rooms, good service, and exceptional help from M
Pros:

I had a pleasant stay at Senses Hotel Havelock. The room was clean, well-maintained, and comfortable, though a bit small — but that wasn’t really an issue. The network connection was decent, and overall the facilities were good. The staff were very polite and helpful, always ready to assist with a smile. A special mention to Manager Susmit, who was exceptionally kind and went out of his way to make our stay comfortable. Really appreciate his hospitality. Would definitely consider staying here again!

Cons:

Room size and some construction work going on pool side

Good stay at Senses in havelock !
Pros:

I liked the swimming pool even if it’s not maintained
I liked the crew , they were incredible and very attentive to us. Especially Shiva who was really attentive, and is able to individually contribute to the quality of this hotel.
I liked the clean of the reception and the rooms
I liked space where we can have the breakfast and also food during the day. I was even able to remotely work there during my stay.
I liked the breakfast that we got every morning, Shiva was always presenting everything and able to serve everything extra we needed : omelette, coffee, tea, toasts, … even I get that served into my bed when I was too sick to come to the dining room!
We did a snorkelling session at Nemo beach, the Crew there was fantastic !! Thanks very much to them.

Cons:

I heard multiple times a dog sparking during the night.
There are work in progress around the swimming pool and the facilities around that area are in a mess state.
