The entire facility was just so pleasant and well maintained. The rooms were generous and clean. They were not over the top but very adequate. The staff was outstanding! Always polite, always ready to help and went out of their way to accommodate requests. The food was uniformly good and the breakfast buffet was standout. As a family, we went to Taj Holiday Village and Resort for rest and relaxation and that is what we achieved.

I is a great place family holiday, staff is very friendly , food is good
I had a lovely stay at Taj. It’s a great resort, conveniently located and good facilities. The room was beautiful and well serviced. All staff incredibly friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend a stay here.
One of the nicer properties in Goa, plenty of area for kids to run around, fantastic pool and beach access. The staff hospitality has remained one of the best I have experienced.
My only grievance would be with the room - though amply sized, I found the bathrooms to be a tad outdated and in need of repair. Disclaimer - I did not raise this issue with the management as I was more intent on having a good time.
Excellent “beach” hotel
We could only get the lowest level rooms (which I rarely choose) but they were perfecly comfortable and well maintained

Room was not satisfactory. Bathroom had a leak. Beds were smaller than shown in picture. Beds were not separated and were made into one big bed even though I had stated that there were 3 adults staying in the room. Staff (Manthan - Manager), in particular, was very helpful. He accommodated us as best he could. But, there were no other rooms available, even when I offered to pay for an upgrade.
Our stay was fantastic! The ambiance was amazing, and one of the best perks of booking the Taj Village Resort is that you also get access to both Taj Fort Aguada and the Village Resort. The property is expansive, well-maintained, and impeccably clean. The direct access to the beach is another major highlight. The staff was incredibly friendly and always helpful, ensuring we had a wonderful and memorable stay.
Amazing stay .. property is beautiful .. huge and sea facing with access to the beach .. food is something which needs to be worked on .. over a period of time have felt that taj catering is not what it used to be ..
Wonderful property right next to Fort Aguada. The room was excellent. The restaurant and food options are amazing. The staff and service was extraordinarily warm!!! Had an awesome 4 nights with the family.
Taj experience, excellent everytime. Staff was great, polite and helpful. Rooms are small/ stuffed. Breakfast is really nice. Dinner buffet is limited, i think since a lot of people choose to eat outside due to so many options in Goa.
Again super services by the staff. Bar at the pool is a good add on. Private beach is also really good. Their food is really good especially at the Banyan tree Thai restaurant), the staff again excellent. Highly recommended.
The property is spread out. Some of the rooms are in a four plex building, while some are single chalets or duplexes. Dining restaurants are quite far from the majority of rooms, requiring walking or taking a golf cart ride.
The buildings are generally well maintained as are the grounds and landscape. The rooms are spacious but the bathrooms ( relative to the square footage) are small.
The resort has plenty of staff, but there is no sense of prompt customer service. From the room if one calls for service there is no one at the other end to answer or concern. One has to take the trek to the lobby, only to get an apology.
We arranged a ride into Pajim to get there at a specific time time; however, the ride didn't show up on time, and finally did after much complaining. Again all we received was an apology.
The much-touted Caravela was a disappointment. Old and very dark, and the service rather slow. Food was okay, but not befitting the Taj standards.
The sister resort next to the HV has better restaurants, and one in particular - Paper Moon ( Italian Specialty) had the best service offered.
What we didn't appreciate was that kids were allowed into a fine dining restaurant. One already gas to cope with kids in the pool and public spaces. Fine dining restaurants should a reprieve for guests to enjoy meals and drinks in a quite and serene space, following an hectic and chaotic day out and about.
So for couples and those travelling in an adult group be cautious booking.
We have just finished a 10 day stay at the Taj Village Resort and cannot recommend it enough. The entire stay was well beyond our expectations. Shubham, Uma and Salonica at reception were welcoming and always helpful. Sudedh at the travel desk always on hand to organise transport. Prajot and Saeel at the poolside bar were always so kind and went out of their way.
Sahhoo the lifeguard was amazing. Always making sure our sun beds were arranged such that my children were sheltered from the sun. Prakash and Devanand at the Caravela were always on hand to ensure we were taken care of at the restaurant. We did have a blip with 2 groups of Ill mannered students checking in and making 4 days rather unpleasant but that cannot be held against the hotel or staff in any way. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for a hotel in Goa and you are travelling with children.

Bad Value for Money stay
This is one of the Taj’s flagship property in India and one of the most expensive hotels so one expects extraordinary service from them especially on Christmas holidays. Surprisingly they only have two restaurants, one is coffee shop offering buffet breakfast and lunch and dinner and the other one is a Thai restaurant- Banyan Tree. We have stayed at this property many times but this time food at coffee shop was very much below average- minus 10 on a scale of 10. Tasteless with bad to look at presentation on table made us hunt for food outside the hotel though we had paid for a meal plan. There are so many great choices outside the hotel for food that is much reasonably priced like Second House, Hosa, etc. Rotten bananas coming on the table and such food not only in buffet but also in ala carta menu escaping professional eyes is a serious RED FLAG. We informed all the concerned people and they promised to look into it.
Secondly the cabanas were all dirty. Despite bringing it to their knowledge no one cleaned it up for five nights of our stay. This is not what you expect after you pay $800 USD for a night.
Amazing and very beautiful resort. Nice staff and very nice cottages

The location is superb, but it’s a dated property which is crying out loud for renovation! I slipped on the foot mat almost twice because it’s slippery, just outside the main door. Pool area will make you wait for 20 minutes even to get a coconut water which felt like I bought from a roadside vendor, it was hot and covered with foil ? Never seen a five start property charging 250 dollar a night in such a shabby condition!

We didn't get the room we'd requested and paid for. We were very disappointed with the room we got.
Bathrooms and rooms definitely need to be renovated. Over rated as a 5 star hotel.
Only positive was the good staff they have.
