Taj Holiday Village Resort and Spa Goa

Authentic vibe of Goa, I wish I could stay there more. It was great experience, the rooms were clean and kept well. The true local vibe was on spot. Everything was really thoughtful from bathroom toiletiera to Sofa and Table lamp. The patio outside the room gives a relaxing experience. There were some fun activities for guest including paid or free. all you need to be prepared.

After staying at various Taj properties, this was a huge disappointment. The room service is very slow, they fail to remember and take note of your food allergies and often serve you the food allergens, you have requested them to avoid!!!!! You keep on waiting for the house keeping staff to pick up your call and once literally had to try calling them 9 times!!! Even to confirm my reservation, the front desk failed to pick up my first 4 calls!!! They don't even revert. Luxury has nothing to do with them! The extra beds are smelly and stinky! The balcony is often laid with thick layer of dust. Food is lacking a taste! The lay out of food corner is very primitive, having a dessert corner right near an entrance, during monsoon is sure to have flies hovering around!!! A little thinking and planning is all it takes!!! It's a resort but every activity is a paid one! Often wonder staying in a hotel would have been better than opting for resort like this, where activities are not inclusive, even after paying this high price!!! Over all not so good stay. This is not Tajness!!!

Exceptional Stay at Taj Village, Goa – A True Five-Star Experience I recently had the pleasure of staying at this stunning five-star hotel Taj Holiday Village Spa and Resort, in Goa for three days, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations in every way. From the moment I arrived, the reception staff made a fantastic first impression — quick, efficient, and incredibly helpful. Check-in was smooth, and they ensured I felt welcome right away. Here I would like to mention names of Manthan Mishra, who assisted us during check - in and efficiently sorted out the issues we had with our room and Yash Gupta who helped us with check - out, billing and departure most efficiently, in a professional manner. The housekeeping team was equally impressive. Raja looked after our villa for all three days. Every request was handled promptly and with a smile. My room was always spotless and well-stocked, and he was just a call away whenever I needed anything. The dining experience was another highlight. The restaurants were nothing short of amazing — offering a great variety of cuisines, each dish crafted to perfection. The chefs are clearly masters of their craft, and the serving staff were professional, well-trained, and always ready to assist with genuine warmth. Here I would mention the names of Kim, Shant and Jagdish, who served us during various meals at Caravela, with a smile and were most helpful. What truly added to the charm of the place was the ambiance. The hotel is surrounded by expansive green lawns dotted with coconut trees, creating a serene and tropical vibe that made it a perfect escape from the daily grind. Overall, this was one of the most memorable stays I’ve had. The service, food, and environment were all top-notch. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Goa and looking for a luxurious and relaxing experience.

We stayed at Taj Holiday Village, Goa to celebrate my daughter’s birthday, but the experience was far from what we expected — especially from a Taj property. I had emailed the hotel well in advance, clearly mentioning the birthday celebration. There was no response for several days. Only after I followed up again someone replied, asking for a family photo and assuring us that a cake with a birthday message would be arranged. However, nothing was done. No cake, no acknowledgment at all — despite their promise. It felt like the communication was just a formality with no intention of following through. Even when I informed the staff during our stay that I had arranged my own cake and requested help to keep it for a short while, I was told “we will see and call you in a minute” — and then no one got back to me. The lack of basic courtesy and follow-up was very disappointing, especially when you're celebrating something as special as a child’s birthday. The servers in the restaurants were good and did their best to make guests feel comfortable — polite, attentive, and respectful.Buffet menu lacked variety.we expected more options and creativity, especially in a resort of this standard. The activity centre team deserves special praise — they were truly warm, engaging, and made an effort with the kid. They were the only reason we had some good moments during our stay. Overall, it was not the special experience we hoped for. If you’re planning a celebration or expecting the usual Taj hospitality, this property might not meet expectations. Rather would suggest looking at other options where guest emotions and experiences are truly valued. We left with more disappointment than joy, which is not what you want from a birthday trip.This stay felt cold, careless, and honestly not worth the hype.

We had a truly relaxing and memorable stay at Taj Holiday Village. The children thoroughly enjoyed all the activities, and we were delighted to see them so engaged and happy. The staff was exceptionally helpful and went out of their way to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. We look forward to returning soon!
