The Making of a Legacy


Dew Dale Resorts is a pioneer property that was set up under an Indian Government Scheme of setting up Tourism related facilities in the Rural Areas of Andaman and Nicobar Islands.

The Andaman and Nicobar Islands, located in the Bay of Bengal, are quite isolated. Flights from Mainland India take at least a couple of hours to reach these Islands.

As the Islands are a Union Territory of India, and salaries of Government servants quite high, there is a great divide between the haves and have nots. It is very difficult for those without Government jobs to survive in the Islands.

As there are not many other options available the Tourism Industry is the main job generator. We feel proud and at the same time humbled that we are able to help some of the populace earn a living through our Resort.



The land on which DEW DALE Resorts was set up was purchased from this old couple who were childless and wished to return to their native place in Mainland India. 



Notice the date palm tree?


The date palm of Dew Dale Resorts today...a mute winess!

And so history was made.
