One day for a proper temple visit.

One day for visiting konark.

One day for Dolphin sights slightly off puri.

Early mornings and evenings on days set aside for Konark and Temple visit can be spent on the beach and any further days the group wants to just chill out and enjoy local cuisine.

So, I would recommend 4 to max 5 days would be just fine.

Hotel Hans Coco Palms is a nice hotel since it is very close to the beach and not too far from the temple and good restaurants.

We stayed at Victoria Club Hotel and would definitely recommend it. You have a Monginis and an ATM in their campus... and excellent view of the sea from most of the rooms....

Regarding stay at puri I think 5 days is enough considering that you are reaching by the morning train and leaving by the night train.

Places of Interest: Sri Jagannath Temple, one day chilka tour , one day bhubaneswar +konark tour. All tours can be booked from OTDC booking center beside Kamat hotel (near Victoria).

Lunch and dinner can be done at BHOJOHORI MANNA in the Pulin Puri (hotel) campus.

Puri itself would take a day. Bhubaneshwar-Konark-Nandan Kanan would take another day. I would suggest you to spend a day for Satapada (Chilika Lake). In Puri, you can easily spend 4-5 days for relaxation and sight seeing. Ideally to cover all the places as mentioned, 3-4 days is advicable.

You can look for Hotel Victoria Club. Location is awesome. Tariif is reasonable and so is the food. (P) 06752222005 / 06752222920.

3 days are enough.
One day for Chilika Lake (Dolphin) tour.
One day for Konarak
The last day for visiting the temple.
Evenings you can spend on the beach.

Victoria Club, Dreamland, Srihari, Sonar Bangla - all are good
