In a word fabulous! Great room, particularly the bathroom facilities, with a splendid view over the exclusive pool and gardens.
The Diwa Club is well worth the extra cost. In its own separate area and with only around 30 rooms it has its own exclusive pool and restaurant and has a very quiet relaxed feel. However you also have the benefits of the larger hotel facilities a short walk away through the beautiful gardens.
The hotel is in a quiet area within the back lanes of Majorda and is a 15 min stroll to the beach however there is a free on-demand buggy service that only takes a couple of minutes. Outside the resort there are a couple of good local restaurants, some shops and a supermarket across the road from the entrance gates and many more options at the beach. The local bus service to Margao stops outside and makes for a fun outing to the large covered market in the town. Taxis are available either from the hotel or talk to the local guys outside the gate for best rates.
However its the staff that really make the difference here. They are courteous, friendly, attentive and genuine and always make you feel like you are their number 1 VIP guest - many thanks to them for a great holiday experience.
