Taj Holiday Village Resort & Spa, Goa - Candolim

Room cleanliness was disappointing and unacceptable.

Fantastic, wonderful hotel, there's great pool and location is fantastic to fort aguada which was very nice of them. Very hospitable and respectful staff right from the reception desk, everything is perfect. The poolside bar is fab, greatly enjoyed this place. Must say thank you, would stay here again and again.

We booked well laid out room with wonderful housekeeping and could use wake-up service, available in it.

easy strolls to beaches and nearby attractions added fun

The fabulous hotel features beautiful scenery and friendly staff. It's just a short walk of around 500 meters to Sinquerim Beach and less than a kilometer to the historic Fort Aguada, perfect for soaking in fine views and rich culture.

Beautiful resort with great views, a nice beach, a swimming pool and swimming pool bar, a nice selection of restaurants including one serving traditionnal Goan food where we had an amazing dinner... I could go on and on... Just such a fantastic place! Housekeeping surprised us one day with lots of special romantic treats all over the bedroom and bathroom which was such a thoughful and lovely surprise and made our stay even more special and unforgettable!

The only negative experience we had was that we had booked an independant bungalow (completely detached) with a sea view. But when we arrived they gave us an appartment that was part of a 3 appartment bungalow, and we couldn't see the sea. We complained and they moved us to another bungalow which was independant but we still couldn't see the sea! We complained again, and finally they gave us what they should have given us in the first place and what we had paid for, because we had decided to treat ourselves and to splash out, and had paid considerably more money for the added luxury of privacy and a gorgeous sea view. The duty manager wasn't very sympathetic and told us that we hadn't booked a private bungalow specifically. (We had! That's what our Booked.net confirmation email says and we had picked the most expensive option available). So instead of apologising he told us that we were wrong and there had been no mistake. Which was frustrating! Apart from that incident, everything else was great which meant we quickly forgot about the upsetting incident and were able to have an amazing time (in our private bungallow with amazing sea view ;-))

The location of the hotel is excellent and the best thing is super excellent food.The staff is corteous .

Pathetic service.The service is real bad,doesn't do justice to vivanta property.Lack of knowledge is second problem-all staff are ill educated about local knowledge,they guide you wrong-again-not a Taj standard

A surprise, made our trip

The staff surprised us with a complimentary cake for our anniversary. The room was spacious and well-decorated.

The breakfast spread was a bit limited, especially for our taste. We were hoping for more variety during our mornings.

everthing, the staff, location, the food where all brilliant

Staff very professional, friendly and helpful in all areas of the hotel. Lovely setting with well kept gardens and nice pool with swim up bar. A lovely touch was being sung to as you arrived, the singers were very good.

Apart from the pool bar there was no other bar just to relax in.

Taj Holiday Village Resort & Spa, Goa boasts gorgeous gardens, charming terracotta cottages, and well-maintained walkways that make it easy to navigate. The staff were accommodating.

More seating areas would enhance comfort for seniors.

The scenic beauty of the Taj Holiday Village with the natural landscape and lush greenery is a welcome respite from the busy city life we are used to! The beach front and the accessibility to this was the best aspect of the property.

The fact that there was only a la carte menus and no buffet spreads was the only disappointment! Otherwise everything else was fantastic.

nothing really, too busy having a great time,

The dining vibe was electric, especially during the afternoon tea! A massive shoutout to Melvin at Caravella for his stellar service. The amazing beach view complemented the lush gardens. The hospitality was great too-big kudos to the staff for making us feel right at home!

Neat room plus climate control and coffee/tea making equipment. Location - awesome, not far from the nice beaches, nearby bars and a mini golf course. For shots visit Fish hut, nestled within 15 minutes' walk of the hotel;)))

We were travelling with our seven month old baby and the hotel was extremely infant friendly . There was an infant menu as well . Also the staff were very courteous and friendly
