I stayed at this property because of its 5 star rating and chose the room based on a “10” review on Expedia. The room was old, tired and looked like it hadn’t been maintained. The ocean view was obstructed by dirty windows with dirty curtains. The room did not look anything like the pictures. The lower common areas were not maintained. This property needs a lot of work to be a 5 star hotel. I would never recommend this place to anyone. The breakfast buffet was overcrowded and noisy. This was NOT a 5 star hotel experience and we felt ripped off

Great resort with excellent customer service. Food is good and caters to the clientele. There is no Goan food for those of us who cam Outside the resort is terrible with lack of approach road and order. Too many people walking on the road in absolute unsafe conditions. Lack of taxi cabs make travel very very expensive.

We were a family of 4 with 2 boys aged 9 and 11. The restaurant staff went out of their way to cater to the foods the boys liked(both have very different tastes). We lost some swimming trunks at the pool. The pool manager found them and they were returned to us the next day. The room had a wonderful view to the ocean and a balcony where we could relax while watching the waves. Ultimately it was the staff that made this place so lovely.

Property was well laid out and actively. A short walk from the room were the dinner venues, swimming pool, and a little further down some sets of stairs, the beach. It was very peaceful and the staff are very helpful. Guest services were happy to ensure our stay was brilliant including little personalised gift for the kids. Anish Naik was fantastic in their restaurant. He was very attentive and helped ensure that everyone had something they would enjoy for dinner. Including those on a strict diet. Helpful and very patient meant that we came back a few times for dinner here. They had a great selection of veg and non veg. Overall a brilliant stay and would recommend without a doubt for couples, young families or extended family trips.
