Taj is my most favourite host in India. I love the class of service that they maintain pretty uniformly across all their properties. Taj Holiday village has an edge over others due to its long boundary that it shares with the Arabian Sea shore. Though the beach in itself is mediocre compared to the likes of Varca and many others... More

We stayed at the premium indulgance sea facing cottage, in May, 2013. Thanks to the proximity of the property to the beach, we didnt feel hot at all. Its the best palce to relax , by the poolside in the day, and on the beach in the evening. We loved the food, the quiet zone, the pool, the pool bar,... More

Fantastic location and view of the beach from restaurants. But, rooms were outdated and in serious need of renovation, they were not even 3*. We stayed in premium indulgence cottages. The pool was small and old-fashioned but was very impressed with the kids play area and sports complex, which was very well-maintained and had quite a few options. We had... More

We last stayed here about 5 years back and its in shambles. Its definitely not a 5-star rated any longer. - the rooms have a... More

We stayed here for a friend's wedding in December 2012. If you have stayed in Taj properties before you won't be surprised by the world class hospitality and really good food. The little cottages are too cute and very comfortable. Though others did mention climbing too many stairs. But I don't think that's a problem that can't be solved. The... More

Our first experience of Taj in Goa was simply superb. The rooms were all designed as Portuguese Villas. The grounds were superb..they are huge and Taj provides buggies to move around. We let our boys (aged 2 n 5) run around (of course in site), knowing that they were safe and help was always around. The staff was extremely helpful....we... More

I was told that this is one of the first resorts of Taj..so i am not surprised that the resort is bang on the beach..and it has plenty of land.. so you will only find cottages and still there is plenty of space available to have a mini-golf course. Each cottage is done up in a very elegant manner and... More

We stayed at the Holiday Village on our honeymoon 17 years ago and chose this hotel again for sentimental reasons. Everything about Goa has changed including the Taj -- now called the Taj Vivanta. While the façade of the cottages are still quite charming, there is not a trace of anything remotely Goan in the room décor or public places.... More
