Rooms were not clean, we changed room 2 times but still when you walk into the room the leg becomes full of dust!. Lots of insects comes in to the room becouse of the greenery around
The rooms are spacious & the property is great but you can see its too old and not maintained properly
Food were average in the restaurants both (Indian & Italian)
Overall services was very average

We were a family of 4 with 2 boys aged 9 and 11. The restaurant staff went out of their way to cater to the foods the boys liked(both have very different tastes). We lost some swimming trunks at the pool. The pool manager found them and they were returned to us the next day. The room had a wonderful view to the ocean and a balcony where we could relax while watching the waves. Ultimately it was the staff that made this place so lovely.

I had 4 rooms booked for 2 days in sea view cottages.
I had family emergency with hip fracture needing emergency surgery.
They would not understand it and adjust or give credit or reimburse.
Such poor humanity.
I am visiting from California.
Never seen such human insensitivity in USA.

I had an exceptional experience at the Taj resort.
The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, happy and received anything we desired. They even went out of their way to mail back an item I left in the room after I checked out. Wouldn't even consider staying anywhere else if I travel to Goa again.
5.0 / 5.0
Property was well laid out and actively. A short walk from the room were the dinner venues, swimming pool, and a little further down some sets of stairs, the beach.
It was very peaceful and the staff are very helpful.
Guest services were happy to ensure our stay was brilliant including little personalised gift for the kids.
Anish Naik was fantastic in their restaurant. He was very attentive and helped ensure that everyone had something they would enjoy for dinner. Including those on a strict diet. Helpful and very patient meant that we came back a few times for dinner here. They had a great selection of veg and non veg.
Overall a brilliant stay and would recommend without a doubt for couples, young families or extended family trips.

Overall good. Not too happy about the restaurant service. Plus the rooms would often stink of the sea algae/sewer, not acceptable for a resort of this calibre and this cost.

Property is heritage as such it is quiet dated. I personally not a big fan of such hotels. Services were good otherwise.

Great stay at the Taj Fort Aguada Goa. Thank you to all the pool guys who kept us well looked after with cold water and shade particularly Sanjeev. Thank you to Vincent in Kokum restaurant the food was great as was the service at breakfast and dinner
The grounds of the hotel are beautiful and well kept and the views are amazing. It’s also nice and quiet all the time no horns or loud blaring music. However the room we had tired and not up to 5 star standard at best this was 3.5 star room, the shower screen was mouldy and the chairs were also mouldy/damp. In our view this isn’t a 5 star hotel as such is over priced for sure but we had a nice time and enjoyed our stay overall. But would we go back not likely.

Vincent was an amazing host at kokum restaurant on Feb 22 evening dinner

Our stay was amazing from start to finish. From the minute you enter the beautiful lobby with open views of the beach and landscape, you are immediately transported to a place of calm and relaxation.
Breakfast every morning was fresh and delicious with many Indian and continental options. Sanjiv took great of us at the pool and the staff was extremely attentive to all our needs. I especially enjoyed the carnival experience the Taj put on for us. So much fun! A special touch were the daily gifts I found in our room from the staff. This hotel is a must visit!
5.0 / 5.0
The property is located next to a fort (on a cliff) overlooking the sea. It has beautiful view of the sinquerim beach and the Arabian sea. The property is open and hence it has beautiful breeze in the evening.
The SFX lounge is an a great place to hang out in the evening during sunset. One can also go up the hill to get a beautiful view of the bay and the sun set.
The konkan restaurant also offers great buffet option with lot of options and high on taste.
3.0 / 5.0
The property is old and very tired. However, the prices are quite high and clearly not worth it. Regardless of price I would avoid. More like a very tired Holiday Inn. Honestly, I don’t think I will ever stay at another Taj property because this one is so poor.

I am thrilled to share my review of the Resort in Goa. Without a doubt, this resort is the ultimate destination for a perfect stay. The location is absolutely breathtaking, offering a wonderful ambiance that will leave you in awe.
The resort boasts a vast and beautifully landscaped garden area, which is meticulously maintained. From the moment you step foot onto the premises, you will be greeted with a sense of tranquility and serenity.
The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that your every need is met. The accommodations are top-notch, providing a luxurious and comfortable experience. Whether you are looking to relax by the pool, indulge in delicious food, or enjoy the various recreational activities available, this resort has it all. I wholeheartedly recommend the 5-star Resort in Goa for an unforgettable and remarkable getaway.

Amazing property and location and the access to the adjoining Taj resort was a big bonus.
Rooms are dated and small and we managed to change to a cottage which was spacious and beautiful. Many Thanks to the manager Mr Shubham for helping us make the change with minimal fuss, and for always checking on us.
Food was delicious but variety was limited and after 4-5 days it could be an issue. More variety and cuisines required.
Lastly, maybe more recreational options required especially at night.
Overall a great stay with fantastic staff. Also special thanks to the superstars cleaning our cottage - Arjun, Pancham and Sadashiv- for being so helpful and pleasant.

We stayed at Taj Fort Aguada in Dec 23 for new year. The stay was very pleasant with good food options and very nice service. I want to convey my special thanks to Mr Vincent who served us nice drinks during New Year Gala Dinner. Also, I want to mention Mr Sanjeev (swimming coach) who was very warm in receiving us at swimming pool and also made sure that our experience at pool remain pleasant. Thanks a ton! I would also like to mention that the property is almost 50 yrs old but is maintained very well with all the staff contributing equally.

Everything was excellent about this property. But the thing stands out is the care and service by the employees. In particular Vincent and Sunil at the Kokum restaurant and Sanjiv at the poolside made it memorable for us and our kids. Best wishes and a wonderful 2024 to the wonderful people at Taj Fort Aguada

Sanjeev by the pool was our make it or break it. The service he provided was top class. He remembered the names of all the children and genuinely seems to care about the guests. Can’t give him enough stars.

Friends of few adults (having a night party in nearby room) came banging on his door more than once. They had to be told that party was in the nearby room.
Also, despite telling guest mgmt team personally about the special occassion for which stay was booked, there was no initiative taken from them.

Excited to be in Goa, we thought we would take a day away from friends and go spend it in a Suite at Taj Fort Aguada, having spent part of our honeymoon here.
If nothing else, it made us realize that we should never go back, perhaps we were chasing a dream.
Arrival was uneventful, and we were shown to our room.
Room was tired looking, floor tiles were cracked and broken in several places.
My wife thought she would have a soak, surprise no bath tub! Happens I guess.
Showered, went out for a drink to the Hotel Bar, the whole decor was so uninspiring, had not been changed for perhaps 4 decades.
Went out for dinner, came back to find that Inspite of having left the sign to make the room, it had not been made up. A phone call and in 5-10 minutes had 2-3 guys cleaning and making the bed up and changing the towels etc. Disappointing, not expecting this to happen at The Taj.
Then you start looking at the small things, and several disappointing things:
Slippers and shoes out in the corridor !
Clothes hanging out to dry !
Room service tray taken away, without bothering to clean the food which had dropped !
Bottle of wine in the Suite, with only one glass !
Second glass brought , which was different to the one in the room !
Wardrobe door which never shuts !
One or two would have been unacceptable at the Taj, all together it makes you wonder what has gone wrong at this Grande Dame ?

This was our first time to Goa and wanted to ensure we stayed at a proper and clean property as we had 2 young children. Taj Aguada did not disappoint. They exceeded expectations. There is not a single complaint I can write. The staff was very friendly, from Abhishek in the kitchen to Sanjeev at the pool. They went above and beyond to ensure our needs were met. The kitchen even specially made mild food for our kids at no extra charge. The hotels free shuttle service was convenient to get us to Tajs sister resort and also the sunset point. Food was great, room was clean and service was impeccable. The service was so above and beyond that I had got loose motion and we called the front desk, within 30 mins they had gone to the pharmacy and got me medication again at no charge. I will be visiting Goa again and will not be needing to look anywhere else but Taj!
