Perfect stay, beautiful gardens, very clean hotel, the staff work meticulously to keep it all looking at its best. The food was delicious throughout all restaurants, and excellent service from the staff in those restaurants, in particular Renolta in the lobster village bar, she remembers our drinks each time & gives excellent service.

I stayed here with my wife and it was a wonderful experience for us as a couple. The room was excellent and the property itself is beautiful. We especially loved the ocean view room, which had an amazing view. The beach was also stunning and very relaxing. Overall, it was a great choice for our stay and we truly enjoyed our time here.

Lovely hotel with great facilities, including a large pool and access to a clean beach. My only small criticisms is that there is no evening entertainment at the hotel and everyone disappears after dinner. There are now few western tourists staying at the hotel and so the food (very spicy!) and limited activities are aimed at the domestic market.

The property is immaculate with fantastic amenities for families. The pool is fantastic. They have a regular large pool, kids pool, open air heated pool different from regular pool and open air jacuzzi and indoor jacuzzi. They also have cycling, cricket, Golf, badminton and host of other activities to keep kids and adults busy. The property is overall very beautiful and great for morning runs or just a stroll. They also have direct access to benaulim beach. The food overall is great in taste but I believe the breakfast, lunch and dinner buffet lack in variety for a properly of this class. Almost every other property in this class had a larger spread. No complains on quality, taste and service though. The extra bed is exorbitantly priced at ₹ 4000++ per night. The kind bed is big enough though.

The surroundings were magnificent and the service is excellent. It is a pity that the food and the event’s programme (things like yoga & gym) do not match these high standards. Overall is it worth the cost - I ask myself?

I have been traveling with my mother for 15 years. Taj Exotica is without question one of the finest resorts we have stayed in. The staff are fantastic, the kitchens are superb, and the hospitality and conveniences are world class. Bravo!

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…

Thanks to Staff members, service was awesome. It os to note that Miss Aishwarya was excellent and very responsible. Particularly thank her and staff for helping is with our daughter birthday celebration. Her hospitality made the difference for our feelings. We thank her big time.

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.

Taj Exotica in South Goa is a beautiful and quiet property. Clinston a staff in the restaurant ,front Manager and the gentleman working in the travel desk were also kind and bent backwards to help us. The staff were welcoming extremely helpful. The only issue we had was the transport back to the Airport at GOI on the way we wanted to visit the Birla temple ,unfortunately it was closed ,the opening time was not known it was only a short detour as it was on the opposite side of the road ,we could not get down from the car but still we were charged Indian Rs 600/=. we were told that we needed to pay the driver extra for the visit it was on the highway to the airport . As we could not visit the temple as they do not open until 1700 in the evenings

Great Resort with a few minor issues

This is an amazing hotel. We booked a villa with private pool and it was well worth the upgrade. On a whole the stay was wonderful apart from a few minor points: 1. The staff at the Lobster Village are absolutely miserable. Every else they are fantastic but the team at the Lobster Village are amongst the most unhappy I have ever come across. 2. The bar next to reception is really overpriced. A local larger is 500 rupees yet at all the other bars on the resort its 275 rupees. 3. The hair Salon prices are out of date on the website. a wash and blow dry was advertised as being 1200rupees but was actually 3600 rupees. As stated these are all minor points as the resort and hotel are outstanding.
