Beach does not have loungers or seats - no licence
We came for a beach holiday to relax - the beach was great but there are no seats or loungers because hotel does not have a licence for them. They asked us to sit behind large mesh wired boundaries. Nowhere on their websites or travel web agents does it tell you that you can’t sit in their beach on loungers or deckchairs. They need to inform on their website and booking platforms so customers can make an informed choice.

Average beach resort!
Too many house flies across the property. Not the best beach resort in Goa. Breakfast wait time was quite long. Not good value for money.

My friend and I enjoyed our 3-night stay very much. the hotel’s staff and services were helpful and generally great. We specifically enjoyed our one-hour customised cooking session organised by Narmin and a couple of the hotel’s chefs. Delicious food and great fun. If I were to suggest an improvement or two, I'd ask for more activities for adults. Also, it might be easier if different taxes were not excluded from the price lists…

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Staff was excellent save for one individual at the reception. We arrived late to the property at midnight or so we lost about most of our first day experience there. So. We asked during checkin if there is a possibility for a late checkout. They said if there is a possibility they will accommodate us. Come checkout day this person at the reception said they don’t have availability and wanted to charge us an extra 4 grand. The money is not a big deal given what we paid already, But we did not appreciate the dishonesty here. We knew for a fact that they had availability and that the people checking in to our room were coming after our checkout. When we talked to someone else at the reception we were able to resolve this quite easily. Overall everyone else at the property were really kind considerate hospitable and helpful.
