Just returned from an amazing stay at the Taj Exotica Resort and Spa. This hotel is absolutely amazing. The hotel itself is wonderful, set on 56 acres, beautifully decorated, only 2 stories high, very stylish. But what makes the hotel is the staff. From the moment we arrived until we left they staff were absolutely wonderful.
We went for breakfast every morning and by the third morning our coffee was waiting for us, when we finished a second cup arrived then we were offered a coffee to go. Indra and his staff made our day. They always met you with a smile and could not do enough for you.
The staff round the pool were so kind and considerate, not only giving you towels but placing them on the sun bed and moving the sun bed to wherever you wanted.
Water was always readily available and in the heat and humidity it was a necessity.
Our room was spotless and kept that way by the cleaning staff who came twice daily to clean and check if anything needed topped up. I can't quite believe it, but not only were our sheets and bedding changed half way through the holiday but the curtains as well.
The gardens are beautiful and well tended by gardeners.
I like exploring the area, which we did, but if I was told I had to stay in this hotel for two whole weeks and never leave I would be delighted.
I cannot say how amazing I thought this hotel was. We will definitely be back in Goa but could not return without staying at the Taj Exortica. Thank you for an amazing time.

Great beachside location. Wonderful views and bars facing the ocean. Terrific breakfast buffet. We had to change our first room as it was smelling of cigarettes.

We came for a beach holiday to relax - the beach was great but there are no seats or loungers because hotel does not have a licence for them. They asked us to sit behind large mesh wired boundaries.
Nowhere on their websites or travel web agents does it tell you that you can’t sit in their beach on loungers or deckchairs.
They need to inform on their website and booking platforms so customers can make an informed choice.

Too many house flies across the property. Not the best beach resort in Goa. Breakfast wait time was quite long. Not good value for money.

My friend and I enjoyed our 3-night stay very much. the hotel’s staff and services were helpful and generally great.
We specifically enjoyed our one-hour customised cooking session organised by Narmin and a couple of the hotel’s chefs. Delicious food and great fun.
If I were to suggest an improvement or two, I'd ask for more activities for adults.
Also, it might be easier if different taxes were not excluded from the price lists…

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Staff was excellent save for one individual at the reception. We arrived late to the property at midnight or so we lost about most of our first day experience there. So. We asked during checkin if there is a possibility for a late checkout. They said if there is a possibility they will accommodate us. Come checkout day this person at the reception said they don’t have availability and wanted to charge us an extra 4 grand. The money is not a big deal given what we paid already, But we did not appreciate the dishonesty here. We knew for a fact that they had availability and that the people checking in to our room were coming after our checkout. When we talked to someone else at the reception we were able to resolve this quite easily. Overall everyone else at the property were really kind considerate hospitable and helpful.

Terrible experience,mattress quality was horrible got back pain;requested for hard mattress but no help with that too.food was below average.wouldn’t recommend anyone to visit.expect far better from India’s premier hospitality chain.they are just running it on brand value and the fact that it’s a great location
4.0
Lovely place, grounds all kept very well. Easy access to Lovely beach. Food is excellent, also definitely something there for everyone.
Downsides sorry to have to say but some, only a few, of the staff could use some advice on hygiene, wash or deodorant.
They messed up our bill, charged us correctly but gave us someone else's bill, totally different room number, signed as paid.
3.0
The setting is unique - While being guided to the room by reception staff at check-in, my wife slipped because mopping was in progress and floor was wet - there was no signage to indicate this - hopefully the management will use this as a learning activity - it is reduced enjoyment from our 2 night stay as my wife sprained her ankle - Staff were very helpful to address the problem - but could only do limited things afterwards.

We have stayed at many Taj properties and their excellent service, warmth and hospitality is what stands out. Taj exotica Goa outdid our expectations. We made a short, unplanned stay here because of a Air India flight reschedule and it happened to fall on the day of our 7th wedding anniversary. We didn’t even mention it but Mr Abdullah at the check was generally chatting with us and found out about it. He went to all lengths to make our short stay very special for us… there was a surprise cake, some wine, fruits and exotic chocolates in our room to make our day more memorable ❤️
The staff across the property was also exceptionally warm and friendly. It’s people like Mr Abdullah and the staff at Taj exotica that make their hospitality the best in class.
The property is generally lovely, the beach pristine, the landscapes lush and the rooms spacious and comfortable. Just what you need on a relaxing holiday. I was a little disappointed with the quality of food this time though. Not that it was bad but usually Taj food is exceptionally delicious so it’s a high benchmark anyway 🙂
This was a short stay and we definitely plan to come back with family next year and get to enjoy some of the activities we didn’t have time for in this trip like the spa, yoga, photoshoot and sunset rituals

We had a wonderful and relaxing week at the Taj Exotica end of November 2022. Comfortable big rooms and beds. And most importantly, great staff. Our special thanks go to Gaurish, Chef Kamel and Srinivas Reddy, who all contributed to making our stay a most memorable experience. Despite a big wedding taking place on the premises, we were not negatively impacted but instead enjoyed the show. Well done. And try the amazing Lobster Village restaurant by the beach.

Great breakfast buffet with many many choices. Ala carte menu was reasonably good. Lounge was great
Didn't like the expensive quote of Rs 1600 for cab ride of ~ 10 km, when the comparable GoaMiles app was Rs 350

The hotel structure is not beautiful and poorly decorated. The is no beachside activity. The beach is something beyond the fence. For western visitors it is not what someone would imagine a sea side resort or town. Very little heritage of the cuisine from Portugal.

What an absolutely amazing experience we had at Taj Exotica! I flew in from dubai and My flight landed really early (5am), and the staff was kind enough to arrange a room for me to rest since our actual check in was at 3pm.. I was so relieved to get those few hours of sleep and not wait in the hotel lobby for our actual room. Big thanks to the staff, who are so friendly and helpful at all times.. special mention of Ujwal, Rashmita, Vishal, Vinay - everyone so professional, prompt and super helpful. This truly breaks or makes ur stay at any resort.. apart from this the property itself is gorgeous, clean , beautiful beach and great views! Perfect for unwinding for the relaxing holiday. Definitely my go to place, everytime I’m in Goa!

Very good stay. The hotel is very good and comfortable. My young daughter didn’t want to come back she thoroughly enjoyed the property. Food was the only downer a lil since I had opted for alacarte the menu was pretty avg. but once I brought the concern to the chef he personally made sure that he cooked special dishes for me so that was mitigated. The staff is very courteous and friendly and allowed late check out which was really good as I had a late flight. I recommend everyone having meals there to call the chef upfront and put your request. The stay was really good and I highly recommend. PS - the golf course is good recommend all to take coaching lesson.

Tajness is something you won’t forget. Amazing ambience, location, service, food, activities. What more can you ask for. Big spacious and clean rooms. Even kids club was amazing with the great staff engaging children every day. We had no need to even venture out of the property.
