We stayed at Taj Holiday Resort and Spa, North Goa for 2 nights. And it was my wife’s first experience of Taj hospitality. She was simply in awe of it and on leaving when I asked her her experience, she just kept on saying that it’s something that can’t be explained and can only be felt. Also, we were on our baby moon and the surprise that they planned for us in our room and especially the handmade card by the whole team was very overwhelming for us. Overall the stay was wonderful and they made sure of our every comfort. In the end one does end up saying.. Waaaah Taj!!!

Hospitality of the hotel and the staff was exceptional

Abhishek India

The best in Goa ever since I started visiting 30 years ago — However Beach has eroded in front and Sand needs to be pumped on it — The Candolim Baga strip has gotten too crowded and now very pricey — obvious premium for the best spot in Goa —
