My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. On one hand, the location is great and the staff is very courteous, making me feel welcomed.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the property is beautifully landscaped with coconut trees and serene Buddha statues, which lends a peaceful atmosphere. The room I stayed in was spacious and provided good value for money. However, the service left much to be desired, with some rude interactions and cleanliness issues that really affected my stay.

The resort is ideally situated on Calangute-Baga Road, just a short stroll from the beach, making it a convenient spot for vacationers. The dining options were delightful with good food and breakfast. However, the property is quite dated, and some maintenance issues need attention, particularly in the rooms. While the pool area is nice, overall amenities could improve, especially regarding the bathrooms and room furnishings.

5.0/10

Our stay at this resort was quite an experience, but not in a good way. The issues we faced with unkempt conditions and inconsiderate behavior from other guests made it an uncomfortable visit. On the brighter side, the location is decent for exploring nearby beaches, and the room size was satisfactory for a family. However, the inadequate service and cleanliness really detracted from our overall enjoyment.

Rooms

The location is alright, situated close to Calangute and Baga beaches, but not really within walking distance, especially with kids. It served well for renting scooters or booking day trips, though.

Dining

5.0

Dining was a letdown; the food was below average, and we often chose to eat elsewhere rather than at the hotel.

Facilities

5.0

While there was a play area for kids, the overall facilities were not well-maintained, contributing to a less-than-ideal family-friendly environment.
