Fontainhas Hotels, Panaji

"Beautiful resort with luxurious buildings to roam and relax in. Room was very clean, staff (especially Vijay from the resort centre) were exceptionally attentive. The pool was a good temperature, and there were multiple sections and seating areas. There's even a shopping area within the resort! Multiple restaurants with a different cuisine meant we didn't eat the same meal twice during our 2 day stay!"

"very nice staff and polite service by everyone. Thanks for making our stay comfortable and enjoyable. "

"Great hotel and staff were very friendly and helpful "

"In the matter of cleanliness it is worst based on the standards really poor"

"Excellent property, especially the location. We were in the spacious club room with a lovely view of the beach and sea. Two well kept infinity pools. Didn't try the restaurants (except for breakfast), gym or spa. Housekeeping though is a bit sloppy. Forgets to replenish or replenishes different items on different days randomly. Also cleaning of washroom areas wasn't the best. Reception and restaurant staff also weren't very supportive or aa attentive as those at most other Taj properties are. "

"Beach view from villa was obstructed. In general, the property was clean but looked dated,. The main pool area, in particular was kitschy and not commensurate with the star rating and per day charge (average of $700 per night). I had to ask for newspapers everyday and staff didn't ask if I wanted one delivered every morning . At dinner at one of the restaurants, cheese was added to our vegan pasta and another day, I had to remind the waiter 3 times to get me a beer. This last item is not something that can be controlled but there were too many families with unruly kids so if you are hoping for a quiet time, perhaps this is not the best option. "

" We have been staying at this property since its Hyatt days, which makes this February visit even more disappointing. Four families travelled from different cities to celebrate an 80th birthday. Despite sharing all booking details in advance, there were repeated lapses. I received an incorrect airport pickup call meant for another guest, and the response from the front office was a routine, mechanical apology with no ownership. More seriously, although all four rooms were booked under my ID and secured with my credit card, the staff asked my father-in-law and sister-in-law for their cards and charged ₹50,000 to my sister-in-law without authorisation. Even after raising the issue, the amount has not been reversed 12 days later. On checkout, I was again asked about collecting payments from others, forcing me to settle everything myself to avoid further confusion. The property is lovely, but the front office operations are deeply disappointing. A milestone family celebration was overshadowed by preventable errors and poor handling."

"Clean room and friendly satff"

"The rooms were clean, the amenities were good and the food was great. All the staff from receptionists, cleaners, servers,cooks, bar people were amazing and went out of their way to make our stay a pleasant one. A big thankyou to Samishka, Sangtea, Faki and Mona Lisa for taking their time to ask us about our day and a general chat. Thanks to all."
