Andaman Bliss
This is the story of Pravin and Navin Kumar — boys from Andaman who turned a lifetime of roaming these shores into a company that still meets you at the ferry.
A letter from the founders
Nobody books an Andaman trip dreaming about ferry codes and hotel confirmations. They dream of turquoise water under their feet, of a child seeing a reef for the first time, of evenings that feel slower than the mainland allows.
We have lived those evenings. We have also watched travellers arrive excited and leave exhausted — not because the islands failed them, but because the trip was pieced together by people who had never stood on the jetty in the rain.
We started Andaman Bliss so you would never have to put your holiday on hold for confusion. Like the founders who write patient letters at Ro, we are writing this as hosts who have been on both sides of the journey: the ones waiting at home, and the ones arriving with a bag and a hope.
If you come to these islands, we want the first person you meet to feel like family — because for us, this place already is.
— Pravin & Navin Kumar

Chapter 01
Long before Andaman Bliss had a name, there were two brothers growing up on these islands — Pravin and Navin Kumar — for whom the sea was not a holiday backdrop. It was the walk to school, the weekend ferry, the smell of salt on a bicycle ride to Corbyn’s Cove.
Like the Collison brothers who built Stripe from a quiet Irish village, they grew up somewhere most of the world still points to on a map. That distance became their advantage. When you are raised between Port Blair’s jetties and Havelock’s reefs, you learn the islands the way other people learn streets — by heart.

Chapter 02
They did not discover the Andamans as tourists. They wandered them — Radhanagar at low tide, Neil’s lagoons before the crowds, Baratang’s limestone, Diglipur’s quieter north. Ferries cancelled. Monsoons arrived. Plans changed. The brothers learned that beauty here is never a brochure; it is a living place that asks to be read carefully.
That wandering became the curriculum. Every itinerary Andaman Bliss writes still carries those years of roaming: which beach empties after three, which jetty needs an earlier boat, which sunset is worth the longer drive.
Chapter 03
They had left mainland careers in Chennai and come home. Friends across India kept asking how to see the islands properly — and too often came back disappointed by trips planned by people who had never stood on these jetties. That gap became the company.
In 2017 they started with almost nothing romantic about it: one boat toward Ross Island, handwritten bookings, and a belief that travellers deserved hosts who actually lived here. Like Warby Parker’s founding honesty — a clear problem, a personal stake — the answer was not another catalogue. It was presence.

The one who will still stand at Veer Savarkar Airport at dawn to make sure the first handshake of your trip feels like home.
Chapter 04
Every guest is someone’s hard-earned leave. The brothers built the company around that fact — and still hire people who treat a late ferry like it was their own family waiting on the dock. Care here is not a script. It is the same instinct that once made them plan friends’ Andaman trips for free.
A delayed flight at midnight, a child who needs a quieter room, a last-minute Neil hop — someone on the islands picks up, because the islands are home.
Itineraries are written the way the brothers once planned their own weekends: honest about weather, generous with time, never padded with filler stops.
Hospitality here means protecting what made them fall in love with these shores — reefs, villages, and quiet beaches that still feel like themselves.
Still writing the next chapter
From one boat in 2017 to a forty-person in-house team, the heart of Andaman Bliss is unchanged: two brothers from these islands, and a promise that your holiday will be held by people who love this place as much as you hope to.
