If you dream to wake up to the sound of waves softly lapping against your door, with endless azure ocean and pristine white sands in front of you. If you are looking for an unforgettable Thinnakara Island stay, this quiet little paradise in Lakshadweep has exactly what you are looking for—minus the crowds, of course!
Why Thinnakara Stands Out
Thinnakara Island is one of Lakshadweep’s quietest islands, making it the Best Place to Stay in Lakshadweep for those who look for peace and quiet. Unlike more commercialized destinations, this island still has its natural beauty intact while also providing quality service.
The whole resort experience here combines eco-friendly architecture and utmost comfort. The accommodation consists of various unique cabins—some are shaped like a cocoon or a snail shell and located among palm trees and on the beach.
Accommodations That Feel Like a Dream
Praveg Atoll's Lakshadweep resort on Thinnakara features 100 well-furnished and air-conditioned rooms meant for relaxation. Each room is equipped with:
- Private balconies adorned with ocean or garden views
- Separate sitting areas furnished with a dining table
- 42-inch smart TV with cable channels
- A private hot tub inside the room
- Free high-speed Internet
The cocoon rooms have about 46 square meters of space, including king-size beds, and there are bigger snail-formed rooms with around 56 square meters of area for the people who wish to have more space.
Pure-Vegetarian Dining with Island Flair
Cuisine is one of the many highlights of the resort, where all the food served is vegetarian. Varieties of dishes are made from organic farm produce, including:
- Fresh salads made from local farms
- Indian curries and specialties
- Creative desserts inspired by island culture
- Outside dining at the lagoon
The Nemo Bar offers mocktails and cocktails to be enjoyed alongside the vegetarian fare.
Services and Experiences Beyond the Room
A Thinnakara Island stay isn't only about where you're sleeping. Rather it is about what you do after you have reached your location. It offers a variety of services and experiences during your Thinnakara holidays.
- Water sports: snorkeling, kayaking, sailing on traditional outrigger canoes, and glass-bottomed boat rides
- Diving: There is a PADI-certified diving center for reef diving and certification
- Wellness: yoga sessions on the beach and spa activities
- Entertainment: beach cinema nights
The host is a well-trained host and knows each and every detail.
Exploring Thinnakara and Beyond
Even though the resort may be a tourist destination itself, the area surrounding it offers numerous amenities to enjoy. Thinnakara is connected to Bangaram Island, which can be reached in a 10-minute ride.
Some of the most interesting activities you can enjoy are:
- Snorkeling directly from the shore among colorful corals
- Deep sea fishing expeditions
- Visiting the nearby Parli Island for some alone time at the beach
- Walking along the unspoiled beach at sunset
The island is very small so you can cross it in a short time and find hidden huts along the way.
Getting There and Practical Tips
Reaching the destination requires some time, but this takes a bit of preparation. Most people traveling to Thinnakara will land in Agatti Island first and then take a helicopter or a boat to get to their destination. You will need a permit for your trip to Lakshadweep; get the help from your hotel or trusted tour operators to receive this.
Keep in mind:
- There is only Airtel and BSNL mobile connections available there
- The resort offers full board service (including breakfast, lunch, and dinner)
- Check-in is usually around 1 PM
