Resorte Marinha Dourada

This hotel was the very 1st hotel we ever stayed at 10yrs ago. And to be truthful nothing has changed.Having said that we enjoyed every minute.The rooms are in need of a lick of paint desperately, the bathroom could seriously do with a upgrade. Wifi is not available in any rooms, only reception area and bar area. Wifi is very important to most of us, so this really needs addressing. All the staff are brilliant, the reception staff go that extra mile to help you, many thanks to Selwyn and the young lady ( sorry never asked your name ) for helping me print some paperwork from Tui. Great restaurant just down the road call Nick's, money exchange next door call Mr Veen, who is a great guy and very knowledgeable and it's worth sitting down and having a good conversation with. As we had a late return flight it cost 3000Rs to keep our room on. The important question is...would we stay at this hotel again ?....most definitely Its brilliant, thank you Pravin.

1. Location is good - the resort is at a peaceful location with just 10 mins driving distance from Baga beach and walking distance from the famous Arpora Night Market 2. Property - The only good thing about the property is the ambiance. It is a widely spread-out property with two swimming pools and two lakes adjacent to the pools. The serene atmosphere is only good thing in this resort 3. Rooms - Poor. Initially they provided us the old rooms which were very small and had just been painted. We had issues with the foul smell of the paint. Upon my request, they moved us to the new rooms which are spacious (only plus point with the room). We had asked for rooms on the lower floor since we had a baby with us however they said that ground floor rooms are full (although they were not) and gave us rooms on second floor (they have no lifts). There is no tea-coffee maker in the room. Also, they do not provide toiletries. The bed is extremely small and very uncomfortable. We really struggled to get a proper sleep in the bed. There were lot of mosquitoes as well in the room for which it is better to carry a mosquito repellent because they don't have that in the room. We requested for a spray - a rude guy came and sprayed the mosquito repellent in the room but it did not help. So, we went out and bought All-out from a nearby store 4. Breakfast - Average. They had limited options although the taste was good. Worst part is the staff mannerism (or the lack of it). We had a small baby and we wished to carry breakfast for him to the room as there were many mosquitoes in the dining area. However, the manager (I do not recollect the name but guess it was Thomas) asked us not to carry it to the room despite knowing that it was for my baby. Later, when we argued with him, he allowed us to take it to room.

Hotel staff are fantastic they could not do enough for you, from our lovely smiling security guard at the entrance to the hotel to the cleaners bar staff and reception everyone was so nice. The hotel is under new management and they are working so hard arranging seafood nights and creating very romantic evenings. Food and drinks are very reasonable prices. Rooms and hotel is spotlessly clean pools are clean and gardens are well maintained. Overall a beautiful hotel in a quieter area of apora.

we had best of time in Goa at this beautiful resort. Relax calm breath taking view and much more.. We recommend hotel to improve their breakfast but everything else is just right. It is value for money

My lifes very bed experience in this hotel. Very dirty room and pool. Sticky pool. And all staff are like owner i visit last week with family they gave me 3class rooms. Like slams. And come rain water floor. And mosquito and insect. The receptionists told me brings your luggage by your self. Food like testless we stay 4 day all day breakfast same. I suggest to all dont go in this resort thats not resort theats slums. But location is very good. But only location. Not resort. Its call 19 century resorts
