Candolim hotels near Sinquerim Beach

Pros: Cleanliness and hospitality of staff members

Cons: This was by far my best ever trip to Goa in 36 years and I have been to Goa at least 15 times. To start with , a BIG thank you to Preeti from the reservations team for all the assistance, assurance and guidance. We arrived at the property with our 9 month old son and were a bit nervous considering it was his first trip to Goa but the TAJ hospitality experience at other properties gave my wife and me comfort. At the reception we were given a brilliant warm welcome and Aditi, Bhagat, Rucha and Valenco are to thank for that, their helped us and made sure our son felt comfortable. THE VIEW FROM THE LOBBY IS BREATHTAKING, ESPECIALLY THE TWO MINI-LAWNS THAT WATCH OVER THE ARABIAN SEA. We were booked in the Garden View Cottage and the drive up to the cottage was giving me butterflies(I was excited like a baby), the view got better with every meter and the walk is rustic with all the plants around. The cottage was WAY BEYOND what I had expected with our own lawn and hammock. They had already placed a cot with balloons for our son and he had a super time in it. The cottages are huge and comforting, they spell luxury in every inch, the mattress is  extremely comfortable and makes for a cozy nights sleep with the powerful AC blazing. The bathroom is well designed and the bath tub was my favorite area. A cake welcomed us and well it was delicious. Coming to the cleaning and house-keeping, a special mention to Vishal Singh who made sure our room was cleaned no matter what time we asked and every amenity was refilled, at one point I was like "don't spoil me so much". This was by far the best I have every stayed in; the cottages are a little far from the the reception but that is the CHARM of the space, walking on the steps along the uphill trail amidst chirping birds, butterflies and squirrels. Making the stay even more memorable was Abigail and Nupur, these two ladies were alert, warm and hospitable to the other level.

Pros: The property is simply amazing right from the rooms to its view to it's delicious food and also the staff. The staff is very helpful and friendly. I simply loved the fresh mornings. The beach is also very much accessible from the property and is also less crowded. The cottages are simply awesome and well maintained.

Cons: There is nothing which I didn't like but If you are booking here I would recommend to go for cottage than the basic room.

Pros: breakfast was awesome, location was mind blowing

Cons: nothing

Pros: Your staff, surrounding, views, campus.

Cons: Too high prices.

Pros: Our villa was fabulous, breakfast is amazing. Tanmay, the manager at the restaurant was super - professional, highest levels of customer service.

Cons: We were given a really bad cottage - when we protested we were given a great villa. Not sure how anyone can stay in that cottage with no views of anything and a really small room. Restaurants are freezing as the air conditioning is too high.

Pros: Location. Staff. Garden. Sea view.

Cons: Hotel facilities old. Needs change of furniture and renovation. Breakfast ordinary. Pool old and too small.

Pros: Staff were attentive and friendly and any concerns were addressed immediately

Cons: Paid for a premium sea view room. Our view was partially obscured by trees. The room overlooks the staff work area below which was covered but still spoiled the ambience. A lot of renovation was being done and the main bar was closed. This was not mentioned in the website which we were looking forward to going. Our room was constantly cold because of a draught through the windows and there were many insects that came into the room every night. This was cleaned by staff when asked but there were hundreds of them. Felt it was highly overpriced compared to other hotels with much less to offer. Wouldn’t stay there again.

Pros: Excellent Location, so calm and serene. Greenery, Sea & World Class services, what else can one demand for a relaxing soul pleasing trip. Loved every minute of my stay at Taj Fort Agauda. Very helping and proactive staff.

Pros: Overall stay was excellent.sanjeev (swimming coach) was very cordial and made swimming easy for my son.

Cons: Windows had mist because of which view was not clear. However staff wiped them off but due to inner and outer temperature variations it was frequent.if a team can be dedicated to clean from outside it will be convenient.

Pros: On the bright side, over the years I have stayed at this hotel and it's still as beautiful. The layout and the privacy which guests get is excellent. It's location is perfect. Not too close to the crowds of Baga and Calangute but still pretty close to the hustle of North Goa.

Cons: The hotel needs to provide its guests with more than just two small bottles of water a day. To charge for any additional water that guests might use in their rooms seems a little absurd to me. Secondly, the amount of plastic that is used in this hotel in times when tourism is becoming so much more eco friendly is sad. Start keep flasks in guest rooms or jugs of water. Use cloche covers on food that is being served in the rooms. These are small changes that will actually help the environment. I was shocked at the amount of plastic that the hotel used. The quality of food has definitely gone down since the last few times I was here.

Pros: very good location, excellent service and clean hotel. Was lively and very welcoming. Breakfast was excellent and so was the food at the restaurant.

Cons: Can't think of anything to dislike. Loved the place

Pros: Breakfast was quite fine,However on weekends it should be extended up to 11 am

Pros: Room: The rooms were spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The reception also upgraded our room to a Suite. Property: The property is huge and beautiful. There are little fountains and gardens all around and places to sit and relax. The Calamari Bathe and Binge restaurant was also a good place to eat and drink. The reception also provided a loyalty card giving 15% discount on the bill. Location: Awesome. The location was right next to the beach so it was less than 5 minutes walk. Just walk out of the back gate and you are on the beach.

Cons: Room: 1. Electrical Plug Points in the room were in a flimsy state with some of them not working properly. 2. The TVs provided in the room were very small compared to the size of the rooms. It wasn't even a 32'' TV. Should be at least 32" or higher. Property: 1. Breakfast options were very limited and could have been better in quantity and taste. 2. I had driven down from Mumbai and it was always difficult to find a place for parking as the Hotel's designated parking was always full. 3. The property is big so walking from the reception or the parking lot near the beach back to the suite was at least 5 minutes.

Pros: I want to come once in a year..excellent experience ..

Pros: Entire Property

Cons: Parking Arrangements

Pros: Staff is friendly

Cons: Rates were high compared to the facilities offered. The resort is spread out and they don't even keep umbrellas for guests in case it is raining. Service is slow. No food available after 10:30 pm

Pros: Excellent location near the beach and market Very clean pool and surroundings Very well maintained

Pros: The property is beautiful. They have a cool sunken bar. The deluxe rooms are well equipped with basic amenities and comfortable bedding and clean toilets. The resort is well maintained. Nice tiny gardens along the way to the rooms. The staff is extremely warm. They accommodated our early check in and check out requests without much hassle.

Pros: Breakfast was very good, location is perfect, cleanliness is very good and given priority.

Cons: The staff at the reception however could have been more polite, they need to be customer centric as that adds a feel good factor to the guests. Resort menu apart from breakfast should have few more options for indian food apart from continental. There are more of Indian guests compared to foreigners in the resort and it will add value if there are more options for Indian food, it doesn't look good when guests spend quality time at the resort and order food through swiggy as there are not much good options for Indian food.

Pros: We stayed at 2 otheer hotels and one other resort during our visit and this was our absolute favorite. The staff was beyond warm and welcoming. Everyone we encountered some enough English to communicate with. There were security guards at each entrance who were friendly and helpful. Everything was so clean. Service was good and fast. They always secured a taxi for us that was way cheaper than the ones we got on our own. The best part was how helpful and concerned the staff was when I got food poisoning our last day. They even let us check out late with no hesitation or extra fee.

Pros: The food was excellent. The location in the middle of town and 2 minutes walk to the beach was perfect. The evening entertainment was varied and very enjoyable.

Pros: Food

Cons: Location

Pros: Breakfast was ok .

Cons: Bathrooms no ventilation.

Pros: Overall hospitality is excellent!

Cons: Nothing that we didn't like!

Pros: Breakfast was very good, plenty of selections of both european/english and indian fare. Location was very good only 5 min walk to the beach and hotel provided towels to take to the beach. Also similar 5 min walk to centre of Candolim were numerous shops, restaurants, bars and entertainment are close at hand to choose from. As the sun beds around the pool were always taken very early we were lucky to have a ground floor terrace room with patio doors leading outside into the garden with two sun beds for our room, very picturesque, pleasant and quiet.

Cons: All the sun beds situated around the pool area were taken up very early by people placing towels on them, although often no one was using the bed. I think this hotel mainly caters for all inclusive residents. The bar drinks and restaurant food/menu other than the breakfast was just about OK. Food menu selection was poor, the beer was not very cold and other drinks did not come with an offer of ice or lemon/lime etc without requesting this after the drinks were served. In addition although the prices in Goa are very good, the price of drinks was more than many many other restaurants and bars to choose from. We were on room and breakfast basis, so as such (above comment) never ate at the hotel other than breakfast and only had evening drinks there with friends on one occasion early on during our stay.

Pros: Confortable bed and bathroom

Pros: Your reception staff is amazing. Especially the kid, Gautam Rauta. Caiji is cool and friendly, yoga is warm.

Cons: Housekeeping guys are stern. The madam in buffet section who makes eggs to order could use a little smile. She is serious like a hostel warden.

The location is great, it's tucked away from the hustle and the beach is barely a two minute walk. The Candolim main road is full of different bars and eaterie.

Cons: They don't have to pick -up from airport The Restaurant staff where extremely unprofessional, Specifically Restaurant near the Pool, The treatment to local Indians was not respected, As it looks an old age home for Other country nationals, hopefully, we too pay the same price as others so expect the same treatment, Bathrooms are small and smelly, Maintenance guy visited almost alternate day of our stay, Need to call several times for housekeeping,

Pros: Comfy beds but very basic room nothing but a fridge but very clean

Cons: The bar closed at 11pm and if we wanted to sit and chat with friends we weren’t allowed and could definitely not take our own drinks even though they had stopped serving? I didn’t understand their reasoning over this?

Cons: Food is not good Continental breakfast didn't met with my expectations Chicken biryani is very worst,I never had this kind of biryani in my life time Tooth kit is not available
