“Lovely and relaxing”

It is a very friendly hotel. The staff say hello to the guests everytime they see you. The hotel has many complimentary activities which make the stay even more fun. The rooms were amazing, huge and clean and have everything you might want. The pool is enormous too! It is very green and pretty.

“Fabulous”

This hotel was absolutely fabulous. The amenities and service were all top notch. Total white glove treatment. Free chaufeur pick up from the airport with only a minimum of a one night stay requirement. You stay here for access to the private beach. Sand is perfectly soft and white! Nice beach shack restaurants within walking distance on the beach itself. Wished I could have stayed longer.

“Very Impressive - But your paying for it”

The Taj is wonderful but lets be honest - it comes at a price. I was there in Dec 06. Hotel is truely amazing. Its so big you will definately need to catch a ride on the golf carts that are provided to ferry you around (not self drive). I stayed in the Villa's and 1 night in a Superior room. The Villa's are cheaper than the Superior roon but are much better. The Superior rooms are in the main hotel and apart from the Jacuzzi there was nothing extra. We decided to eat at the hotel restuarant one night. Very dissappointed as the food was cold and was on our table in under 10 mins from ordering. Cleary not freshly made. Eating out is more fun. If I go to Goa again (which I am already planning) then the Taj is a bit OTT for my wife and I as we were mostly always out and about. If you want to stay and enjoy the hotel then there is lots to do. Staff are ALL 100% fantastic.

“Can't wait to go back”

From our arrival to our departure , our experience was truly sublime, the friendly staff were ever helpful , the resort itself was a tropical haven with every 5 star amenity and beyond! We loved the breakfast place and Lobster Shack in the evenings sipping our cocktails at sundown , watching the sky and sea do magic right in front of our very eyes ! Truly cannot wait to get back ...our thanks to all at Taj Exotica for making us feel so pampered and at home!

“Great hotel, cheap booze, but eat elsewhere!”

A lovely hotel, fantastic staff, lovely grounds and glorious beach. The restaurants had little atmosphere, so eat at the numerous beach shacks nearby. Top tip! Despite its luxury status the hotel bars had cheap booze!!! Happy hour decent beers for about 50p and wine for a couple of quid. Excellent!!!

“Taj Exotica Hotel, Benaulim, Goa, South India”

If you're looking for a holiday staying in a first class hotel, situated in a quiet resort (village) perched on the edge of a beautiful and endless white sandy beach (its about 20 miles long); if you're looking for a holiday to unwind where your every need is catered for in a civil, respectful and friendly way - as best you can expect and hope for from the service industry; if you're looking for a hotel which makes absolutely every effort to meet your needs, without being overly starchy or austere .... This is the place for you. Cheap - it isn't. Worth it - it is. Hope you enjoy it.
