"It's quite luxurious liked the place. <3"

"We actually had plans to celebrate my birthday in Bangkok this year, but at the last moment we changed our minds and came back to W Goa. The reason was simple the experience we had here earlier had stayed with us. Two years ago, during our first birthday stay at W Goa, we met Lima, who was our stay ambassador. She had made that birthday incredibly special with the little things she arranged from the Rock Pool sundowner celebration with cake and champagne to the beautiful birthday décor waiting for me in the room. Those thoughtful moments stayed in our memories long after the trip ended. So when my birthday came around again this year, coming back here just felt right. This time too, Lima managed everything so thoughtfully. She had even cancelled her own trip with friends when she heard I was coming because she wanted to personally manage my stay again. That really touched me. From the birthday welcome to planning little experiences during the stay everything flowed beautifully. One of my favourite moments was the pickleball session with Raman Sood, which was such a fun way to start the day. There are thoughtful touches everywhere, little surprises, and a team that genuinely pays attention to what makes guests happy. It feels like the whole place works with one simple intention: to make your stay memorable enough that you want to come back. And honestly, it works - because we did. My room Chalet 16 with its beach view and private garden was stunning. I loved my quiet beach time, the evenings at Rock Pool, the food from the chefs, the bartenders, and the warmth from everyone around the property from the restaurant teams to the shuttle staff. Luxury hotels can give you beautiful rooms and views, but it's the people who make a place special. And that's exactly why we came back to W Goa."

"We had a disappointing start to our evening at W Goa after booking a sunset dinner at Rockpool directly through the hotel. The reservation had been accepted and even reconfirmed the day before, so it was frustrating to arrive and be told the venue was closed for a private event. Had we known in advance, we would have made alternative sunset plans elsewhere rather than scrambling at the last minute and ending up watching the sunset from the crowded public beach. The situation was made more uncomfortable when the security guard took my husband’s phone from his hand without asking in order to speak with a colleague about the reservation, and later did the same with his ID card. This felt inappropriate and poorly handled. To their credit, the hotel manager did try to recover the situation by offering us dinner at Spice instead, along with a complimentary cocktail, which was appreciated. Spice itself deserves 5 stars. The food was genuinely excellent, service was attentive, and the team handled food allergies very well. The decor is nice and the restaurant is a hidden gem for Chinese food in Goa. The only downside was that the ambience felt slightly flat as there was no background music and the air con was quite cold, but overall the quality of the food made up for it. Overall, I am giving 3 stars due to the poor handling of the original Rockpool reservation, although the dining experience at Spice was very good in the end."

"Nice food and very courteous staff. Special Appreciation to Nancy and Mihir"

"We booked long weekend at this property The garden view Villa they gave us had a beautiful garden in front and a nice sit out facing the garden where we enjoyed our morning tea The outstanding feature of this property is their rock pool bar overlooking the vagator beach, on two evenings we enjoyed the ocean view over drinks and watching the sunset, the vibe there is truly amazing, Like to mention that we had a most efficient Resort Experience Manager Pritha assigned to us who looked after our needs and was guiding us through the stay for anything we needed, she also suggested these two places for dinner Kiki by the Sea and Bastian Reviera , Bastian was truly amazing again located on the banks of the Mandovi River, we want to thank Pritha for making our trip so enjoyable and going beyond her call of duty"
