Top Goa Velha Hotel Reviews

Heritage Village Resort & Spa Goa

8/10 Good

"Enjoyed the stay, Good place Close to a clean quite beach"

Ronil Goa, JdV by Hyatt

8/10 Good

"I spent a week here in September 2026. This hotel is handy enough to all the local night life but is quiet enough to be relaxing. There are a lot of good local restaurants within the vicinity. It’s great to just try new foods. A first for me was a Xacuti. Very spicy. Very good."

Taj Fort Aguada Resort & Spa, Goa

8/10 Good

"The resort has beautiful views and is in a great location. Access between the two Taj resorts nearby is a plus to have access to additional amenities"
