This was my second visit in Santana resort just because of a very delightful experience on my first visit. Everything was excellent, breakfast was awesome, property ambience was very nice, sea walk just 0.3 km from our room. Reception guys was very supportive and good gentlemen. I would prefer to stay in Santana resort on my next goa visit.

Beautiful hotel, room spacious and cleaned daily. excellent choice of menu. Breakfast had vast choice but difficult to keep warm so cold beans and bacon. Excellent proximity to beautiful beach. Pool at breakfast area not clean. needs a deep clean and some filters. Badrindra and Subal were excellent. Always helpful and friendly. Drinks at the ready when we returned from the beach . on the whole ..EXCELLENT

The Santana hotel has direct access to the beach and is very close to local shops and restaurants. The hotel is located at the point where the big lines of beach chairs finally end and between the Santana and the Taj resorts at the southern end it is much nicer, quieter and far cleaner than further north. The hotel itself is split in to lots of two storey villas with rooms top and bottom. The rooms are quiet simple and some of the furniture is a little old, but everything works and is kept very clean. My only complaint is that the water heater for the shower is rather small. The hotel grounds are very nice and really well looked after. Please note that there is no hotel shuttle to the airport, but the hotel has its own taxi stand outside the entrance and a trip to the airport costs Rs1,400.

The hotel is oddly shaped and the distance from the reception to the rooms is a bit high. But the rooms are well maintained and the property is well developed. A bit expensive for the amenities.

Stayed at the Santana Beach Resort in Candolim for a night. Good property, the rooms were well appointed and very neat and clean (the wallpaper is a bit tacky). The rooms are spacious, with a separate kitchenette area. They should have a sliding door for that area, which would make the aircon more effective. The room I stayed had two balconies, which is very unusual, but a bonus.It is very close to the beach, there are shacks nearby, if one is keen.Food is good too. Breakfast spread is basic, but sufficient. Overall a great VFM deal.Ask for renovated rooms!Will go back there for sure.

Everything was nice. Only issue is that the pools close as early as 7pm in broad daylight in summers. All other good hotels and even our society pools are open till 8:30 or 9pm daily, and here we come for vacation. So either you be in the pool in afternoon sunlight, or you have to choose between the beach or the pool in evening. And yes, WiFi is not free.

it was very nice. except note that very little choice of veg. foods

Rooms are big, airy, well-lit naturally, usable wide and big balconies (two per room), ent.very green with thick vegetation all around.Breakfast spread needs improvement in terms of quality, variety and taste. Adding 2-3 live stations would add spice to the event.Clay-tiles ceiling of the restaurant needs repair and replacement of the broken ones. The ceiling leaks during rains. The Awnings are mispositioned. They should be installed from inside the ceiling and open out to keep the rain water away from the tables set up.During rains, the breakfast spread becomes total and complete mess. Kitchen is far away from the tables and service- stations causing messing around during refills, especially during rains.

The best part about it was the location, bang on, on the beach. The rooms are spacious, but the position of the old AC needs to be changed. A good backup during powercuts is required
The breakfast is good. There is a poolside bar in the resort.
The Calamari Beach Shack is a bit overpriced, but worth taking one candlelight dinner there.
The roadside cafes are good. Cafe Piazza has great pizzas worth the price.
Shopping is a tad bit costly in Candolim.
I would definitely go back to the resort. Good value for money.

We did not stay here. 1st the driver was rude and late to pick us up and he yelled at us when we told him we had been waiting for more than 20 minutes. When we checked in the staff didn't speak to us properly. They gave us the keys and we had to carry our own bags. The hotel room had a mattress on the floor and there were mosquitoes everywhere. We left within 10 minutes.

The hotel is very well maintained, and is very convenient to the beach because the exit from the property goes straight to the beach and the Calamari shack. This hotel does not have rooms directly facing the beach, but was so close that it was fine. Other facilities such as the AC, tv, and wifi (not free 300 rupees for 24 hrs connect time) worked well as well. We took advantage of the free breakfast which was also good. Hotel staff was good.Our room was quite nice, bathroom good, and there is a extra small room with a fridge, sink, small table and tea making accessories. Our room was on the ground floor .. my wife would have preferred one on the 1st floor (ie not ground floor) because that would have had a slightly better view .. esp if it overlooked the pool etc.The hotel staff helped us get a driver for a tour that we wanted for Goa. There were some specific places we wanted to visit and we wanted the driver to also know some english and be a bit of a guide. The driver the hotel found for us (Nitesh, +91 9158912988, 2500 for 1 day of driving)) worked out very well and we used him to drive us back to the airport (1300 rupees).

We have been to Goa on many occasions and stopped in many different hotels there. The Santana is without doubt our favourite. The hotelIs very well located in Candolim and has direct access to the beach. The apartments are very spacious and thoroughly clean, the grounds are beautiful and the staff are fantastic. It has a great swimming pool with bar and the food is very good. You will not be disappointed if you stay here!!

Well, two things that jump in my head are:
1. Wifi was charged! Very strange service cause even shacks maintain free wifi...
2. Check out time was non negotiable which left a bitter taste. One hour up n down is acceptable.
After the issues comes the good part... Nice poolside bar, breakfast included, sunny lawns n proximity to the beach. Loved the room as well...

This is one of the finest resort in Condolim area. This almost touch to sea and having been designed beautifully. Beach attached to resort is very clean and peaceful and having very good crowd.
Quality of food is good though very less options are available for vegetarians but what ever is available is tasty.
They have clean swiming pool.
Location of resort is excellent and Calangute and bagha beaches are closedby. You can hire Activa from Hotel itself at reasonalble rates.

I really enjoyed my stay in Santana. The resort was lush green and peaceful. The nearby Calamari beach was the bonus. I travelled with my family so it was really pleasing for us. I would definitely recommend this to all.

We visited the hotel during the low season but we had a very good accomodation. Compared to the price, the room are very good, the peoplestuff very pleasant and kind. Breckfast was ok.
