Reception Venues in Port Blair

Port Blair offers 8 reception venues spread across the Andaman archipelago, ranging from island resort properties and hotel banquet halls to open-air lawns and pool decks. The city's venue stock skews distinctly towards intimate to mid-size celebrations — a reflection of the island setting — with options located across localities as varied as Carbyns Cove, Marine Hill, Aberdeen Bazaar, and as far as Radhanagar Beach. If your post-wedding grand celebration is planned here, the choices are genuinely scenic and architecturally diverse.

The Venue Mix Available

The 8 reception venues in Port Blair span a notable variety of space types: conference halls, restaurants, open decks, pool decks, garden lawns, and even a garden of forest trees. Taj Exotica Resort & Spa, Andamans and Welcomhotel by ITC Hotels, Bay Island, Port Blair represent the premium resort-hotel tier, while Peerless Sarovar Portico and Clarks Exotica Island House, Port Blair bring established hospitality infrastructure. For a more relaxed island-style reception, Barefoot at Havelock offers a distinctly different character, while Hotel Aparupa, Hotel NK International, and J Hotel round out the city's offering with more accessible hotel-based venues.

Capacity Guidance for Your Guest List

Port Blair's reception venues are best suited to intimate and mid-size guest lists. Capacity across the available properties runs from a minimum of 16 to a maximum of 175 guests, with most venues comfortably accommodating groups in the 40–100 range. All 15 capacity configurations across these venues fall within the under-200 bracket — there are no large-format reception halls exceeding 600 here. Couples planning a reception for 50–120 guests will find the widest selection of suitable spaces. Those expecting closer to 175 guests should prioritise venues with lawn or outdoor deck arrangements, which tend to offer the greater headroom in this market.

Where Venues Are Located

Reception venues are distributed across several distinct localities in and around Port Blair. Marine Hill, Goalghar, and Aberdeen Bazaar hold venues well within the city's core, making guest logistics straightforward. Carbyns Cove and Chidiyatapu offer a more coastal, scenic backdrop for evening receptions, while Lamba Line provides another accessible urban option. Radhanagar Beach — situated on Havelock Island — is the most destination-like setting in the list, suited to couples who want the reception itself to be part of the island experience.
