Chaukhat Bed & Breakfast

Chaukhat Bed & Breakfast Chaukhat is not a hotel- it is a comfort

able and classy 6 air-conditioned bed room accommodation ‘Chaukhat ’means threshold, or doorway in Hindi.

Traditional Indian homes used to have a distinctive doorway, called the Chaukhat through which visitors would enter the dwelling. We have named our Bed & Breakfast ‘Chaukhat’ because we hope that your stay with us will be your entry to the lovely Andaman Islands, which is home to a unique eco system including virgin tropical forests, mangrove creeks and rich underwater life. Located just five minu

tes from the airport, Chaukhat is only ten to fifteen minutes from most places of interest in Port Blair including the jetty, Water Sports Complex, museums and the famous Cellular Jail. Your stay with us comes with a choice of Western or Indian complimentary breakfast. We also provide a simple homely pre-booked dinner to those not planning to eat out, for a nominal charge. All meals are served in the dining area. A refrigerator is provided in the common area for guests’ use.

‘Chaukhat’ also has an elegant and well-furnished living area with a library nook containing books and magazines. There is also a computer area with complimentary internet and a printer. Facilities:

• Air conditioned rooms with balcony.
• Complimentary tea/coffee making facility in rooms
• Ensuite Western Style bathrooms with hot showers & amenities.
• Cable TV in rooms.
• Ethnic crafted King size beds in teak with superior spring mattresses.
• Power back up.
• Choice of Indian and Western breakfast.
• Option of pre-ordered dinner.

Hi everyone-possibly our last review, our 163rd one on TripAdvisor-Thanks to P. Krishna of Chennai for writing it. We end our operations with a BANG, a Five star review as in most cases. Thanks to all our guests, friends and supporters who were with us on our three year long journey- and of course, our staff. Without you folks, we couldn't have remained No.1 on TripAdvisor's category of Port Blair B&B/Inns ever since we commenced operations, three years ago.

“Very Homely Place.Liked the most.”
5 of 5 stars.
Had to Extend my Andaman trip for a day and found this hotel for a night stay.Should not say Hotel ,Should say "Home".Almost stayed in 3 hotels(Shompen,..) in Andaman and the best was Chauket. Staffs were so courteous.Felt like my home in Andaman.Breakfast was decent.

Hi folks! Cannot believe that we have got our 152nd review! Has it really been so long since we started? It seems like yesterday when we were so excited about our very first review in Oct 2013!!
Thanks to Vegnesh for the latest review-he had to reschedule his program due to the floods in Chennai but somehow he managed to reach here and it was a pleasure to host him and his wife.

Awesome Experience with Chaukhat Bed and Breakfast, Port Blair. I visited on Dec 2015. One of the best property in portblair where u will feel like u r in a home. It is a perfect home stay in portblair. Mrs.Virundha is an excellent person who guided us properly to visit Andaman. I made my own itinerary and she guided to have a visit to cover all the places in Andaman.

I am from Chennai and i cancelled my first trip as the flights got cancelled in Chennai due to flood on Dec 2015. As the rooms where already booked from my side, I was in a mood swing to drop my trip. In fact she accepted to swap my journey dates on the same month which made to re organize my trip and made a succesful & remarkable one.

People are very friendly and the food you taste u will experience like you are living in ur home. Manager Arun helped in getting the jetty tickets and arranging vehicles etc. They have proper contacts to help you all, if you ppl prepare your own itinerary like me. Rooms are very neat and clean and the place where this property is located is very safe and it is located inside an Army and Naval Quarters where tress passers are restricted. In one word, this place is wonderful if you ppl are looking for a homestay."

“Hospitality redefined - Chaukhat, U r unparalleled”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed today NEW via mobile
The funniest part of our travel plan always is, we start finding best available resort within budget to stay, relax, unwind ourselves rather than searching for tourist attraction. But this time by sheer God grace we gave a thought to check b&b segment of trip advisor & could nt resist ourselves to think of checked in chaukhat. So booked 3 days at chaukhat & for rest of the 5 days we booked 3 dif resorts at dif places at Andaman. After checked in & gathering 3 days experience in chaukhat all I can say forget choosing travel agent, forget choosing hotels, resorts, restau at port blair, just book chaukhat & forget thinking abt anything as everything ll fall into its place!!!!! WHY?
Inform abt ur arrival at Port Blair, u ll b escorted to chaukhat from Airport.
A warm welcome ll b awaited as u r coming to a place of ur near ones.
U ll b taken to a spacious clean room filled with all required amenities along with a lovely balcony with lush green view as ours was.The place has immediate calming & peaceful effect. The interior of every nooks & corner of the property is so subtle & has feel of personal touch.
Manager Mr. Arun is there to plan, arrange ur all day long trip even tickets for cruise to travel to other islands. I must mention though Sunday is his break but he assured us to extend his help over phone which he did like anything to book our cruise ticket on Sunday itself !!!!
Breakfast, Dinner have essence of fresh, home cooked. For lunch u ll get best advice of restaurant ( home service available).
I must not forget to mention abt all the boys of chaukhat whose smile, way of communication, way to offer help is so not trained & artificial but so genuine.
That might because they have got such a gracious, ever smiled, open hearted Captain of ship of Chaukhat, Mrs. Vrinda. I must acknowledge, u have taken chaukhat to a different level. Chaukhat can not be fallen into any regular category like hotel, b&b etc. It is exceptional, unique, has its own charm, own beauty, own way of hospitality.
Pls be remain as u r chaukhat so that we can come again & again at Port Blair to spend some beautiful moment in the lap of warmth of urs.
