Henry Lawrence Island Pet-friendly Holidays

Property is clean and rooms are bright and clean. Enjoyed the beach, there is a tide that goes out, cant swim, when the tide is in its beautiful like a large warm pool.

Beach side is the best catch for this place

Animal and Environmental harm caused by employees I recently stayed at Silver Sand Resort on Havelock Island and was deeply disturbed by what I witnessed. Several times, I saw resort employees throwing rocks at stray dogs that were calm, friendly, and non-aggressive. The island dogs are well accustomed to tourists, and Havelock Island is also widely known to be rabies free. In one shocking incident, an employee hit a harmless dog with a rock as it walked past the property. The dog cried out in pain, upsetting everyone nearby. When I asked the employee to stop, he said the resort manager had instructed staff to do this. If guests are uncomfortable around the dogs, there are far more humane ways to handle the situation than hurting innocent animals. This behavior reflects very poorly on the resort and its management. To make matters worse, employees were also seen littering on the beach and throwing garbage into a neighboring lot (photos attached), showing a serious lack of environmental responsibility. Future guests who value animal welfare, ethical tourism, and environmental care should be aware of these practices.

Beautiful expansive property with the most welcoming and helpful staff. Taj never disappoints.

very badly kept property, not value for money at all for an ITC property and so exhorbitant, the curtains were falling, room aesthetics were very poor, hair all over the bathroom and room, cats and street dogs inside the property outside our room, very bad experience
