Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers modern amenities in a comfortable setting, but the lack of shower screens was a downside. The staff showed great care throughout my stay.
The hotel has a stunning location right on Cavelossim beach surrounded by excellent restaurants. The rooms are in very horandous condition but include common amenities like toiletries and a refrigerator. The service at check-out is attentive to customer needs. The dining options are limited to grilled sandwiches, and the facilities are basic but adequate.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was excellent, right on Cavelossim beach surrounded by great restaurants. The rooms were disappointing, in the worst condition ever. The service was exceptional, with a staff that truly cares about customers. The dining was satisfactory, and the facilities were decent.
