Chapora Fort is right next to the hotel and highly recommended for sunset views.

Just outside and perched above the hotel is chapora fort, which is great for a short trek, go early around 9 am to avoid the crowds.

It’s bang on vagator beach below chapora fort.

Located towards the Northern part of Goa, near Chapora Fort Market.

The BEST thing about this hotel - it nestles beautifully below Chapora Fort and merges almost seamlessly into the natural greenery of the hillside.

One has to sit here in the lobby at sundown toll rut understand what it does to some beautiful views of the valley to one side and the Chapora fort to the other.

The location of this place is right next to the chapora fort and vagator beach.

Chapora fort was not even 10 minutes walk, anyone would love to visit once.

Excellent location, on top of the hill, right next to Chapora fort, Vagator.

It is located at the vagator beach and very close to the Chapora fort.

Located near chapora fort hidden among hills, the hotel is located probably at the most beautiful and scenic places..the restaurant was on top of a hill ..lush greenery all around and the distant view of the ocean made it worth it ..The drive itself was amazing.

Around the hotel - u can walk 400 metres to the Chapora fort if you fancy great views. Scooters.

It is located next to the Chapora fort (or as mostly people know "Dil Chahata Hai" movie fort).

Location - the hotel is located at the base of Chapora fort and has direct access to the beach.

Next morning, Sharukh also took us on a small trek on the Chapora fort.

I was especially looked after very well by Shahrukh at the gym who also took us for a beautiful trek at the chapora fort and nearby .

He alongwith Diptesh Naik organised Chapora Fort trek for us which we really loved.

Almost a 1.5hrs drive from the Airport,right at the Vagator Beach is W Goa.Just next to the Dil Chahta Hain aka Chapora Fort lies this super 25 acre lush green property.

Staffers were attentive and friendly as usual.

but amazing service, facilities, and very friendly staff.

excellent service, friendly staff,
don't want to name anybody here as it all of them are excellent.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the W. The staff was brilliant; extremely friendly, courteous and warm.

Hotel is too good and the staff members are too friendly House keeping staff Laltu and Yuvraj ( Housekeeping staff)
Wow villa 2 great view in front of beach vegator life experience take in Goa thank you

From front office to the housekeeping all have been very friendly.

Dipti is really great at providing a friendly environment and suggests great drinks

Loved the hospitality, hotel staff were very friendly.

While each staff member we interacted with was extremely friendly, Atif deserves a special mention.

Was pleasantly surprised by how friendly everyone was.

Vikas from housekeeping was always friendly in refreshing the rooms and helping us out.

Number one  hotel in Goa.clean friendly staff.

The best has been all the friendly employees, who made us always feel special, like our room-service Roy Laltu.

Llltu and nikhil were great at service, everything was soo prompt and fast,staff was very helpfull and friendly.

The staff is extremely friendly and efficient.

Best experience was dhr for two days with friends.all staff are too good all are friendly specially intern chahat. .

Ajay Sharma - Director, FnB was extremely hospitable, friendly and indulgent.

Me and my wife spent 4 nights recently, we were very well looked after, extremely well appointed rooms, excellent food and friendly staff.

Thank you to your fabulous team for the most efficient management combined with warm, friendly service.

Each and every staff is so friendly, accommodative and professional that I wont hesitate to place them in top position.

Keys get discharged locked out doors get blocked and what not.

They claimed to be a technical glitch, they gave fresh key which also did not work.

but unable to send a 2nd key in few mins.

Being locked in due to the pandemic for over 5 months, this place was everything you needed for a little R&R to get back to work.

We had to wait outside our room for 45 mins after we had left our key inside the room, inspite of calling them several times, they do their job on their own sweet time.

If that was not all the cleaning chap who came to clean the dressing room at night locked the door from inside god knows why.. We were sitting in the bed side area only to wonder why he had to lock the door.

Key disappointment for us was that our rate was non-cancellable 14 days out and 13 days out the rate dropped significantly.

The power in our villa kept going on and off, the technician came to clean the key sensor and went away saying it was fixed.

Despite requesting a late check-out, they locked me out of my room and we're quite unapologetic about it, blaming it on the system instead.

The reception staff came by while we were having breakfast and dropped off the key and our luggage was in the room when we got there.

but he refuse and told us we are sold out.Then we booked through Makemetrip and its conformed.There is guy on reception name gaurav he told us no rooms  not available and now he trying to test its sales capability and trying hard to sell their wow villas which was not worth.He keeps forcing us to take villa.We called makemytrip they said ur room is available there sir.worse part of the hotel is we have one room they are not giving the key of the room and gaurav guy in reception is most third class person i haven seen in this industry.Finally we  shouted him then he said sir room is available and we got room near around 7 o clock we reached there around 3.W for worse in india because of this person gaurav.

It is indeed a shame that a classy property such as the W is unable to sort key maintainence issues and what makes it worse is that they have the nerve to give such rooms to full rate paying holiday goers such as my wife and her 2 friends.

If you are out and come back after the check out time, the key would not work and you need to go all the way back to the reception to get it activated again. 7.

But overall the service lets the whole experience down.. To top everything off, when we were moving out, I handed over my valet tag.. And was surprised when the valet handed over my key, and pointed me in the direction of my car, which was at least 100 metres away.

but nobody informed us that the keycard will stop working.

My W stay = Damp moisture stinking rooms,spider webs around, broken washroom latch n curtain shield, no hot water in taps, cold + delay inroom dining services, staff begging for a tripadvisor review,helpless manager, GM missing.

Connection to the reception takes a long time n they also take a long time to connect us to rhe required person.amd the room service guy was stinking n down with very bad cold.

Further to harras me more during the program Nikhil.S came to lobby and gave angry stares and also at the time of leaving They also followed and made disgusting sounds in order to tease me .my overall experience was very appealing and left me in tears .

Room given to us was not clean (smelly) and we escalated to get it fixed on day 1.

Initially we were allotted a room which had strange stink.

My parents reached the property and were ushered into a dirty room where the bathrooms were filthy!

but the W staff made sure that our stay there didn't turn out to be a damp squib.

Even if it is not a proper restaurant, it is perfect to have lunch and take swim when the sun starts to burn.

but the rug and the carpet need replacing (there is an iron burn in the carpet) and the light couch in the living room needs cleaning or replacing.

Even the glasses at the kitchen restaurant were stained, smelly and chipped.

The first room we got for the early check-in was really stinky because of the water.

There was a smell of sewage, in the property, maybe that was due to the nearby construction on the property.

After changing two rooms due to musty smell, foul drainage odour, drilling work right outside the door, AC breakdown in the peak of summer not to mention clogged bathroom sinks we were exasperated and looking to get some relaxation anywhere

One of the rooms 3217 is stinking of dead rats.

If things could get 
worse we didn't like the room it looked run down and had a strange smell to it on citing the same to him he suggested I don't have any other option

but there are unfortunately NO umbrellas, so there's absolutely NO shade during the day - therefore unfortunately no option to lounge unless you want to get burned.

She was very informative and approachable.

It is an amazing place with an amazing and co-operative staff and delicious food.

And thanks nikil for arranging tha cake and balloons .

Amazing hotel ,very courteous n helpful staff.Allip and Ajay in housekeeping department were extra helpful and sweet.Karan in restaurant was very cooperative and courteous 👍👍👍Even Mayank at Restaurant was very helpful

I booked this as a surprise birthday celebration for my partner and the team delivered and some more!

although with occasional murmurs of dissent from the staff.

Will start off by saying that the W Goa staff was very welcoming and courteous.

First and foremost, I need to give a shout out to all the incredible staff across this property.

W’s hospitality team is the best I have seen so far!

The hospitality and food was delicious 👍 it's a great day spent with the staff of the The kitchen table the food was lipsmacking and

Service - 10/10
Food - 10/10
Rooms - 10/10
Hospitality - 10/10
Kids Play Room - 10/10
Staff - 10/10

Mr.Shivam was our host and it was a great experience interacting with him.

I should call out that the staff serving is rather kind and helpful.

Karan ,mayank Jose they all are the true asset of the hotel .

A special mention to Ali and Kaushal for personally assisting us.

First time experienced the kind of hospitality from W spa  that I absolutely can't forget !

Only suggestion would be to cut back the vegetations which significantly block the sea view from balcony.

The restaurant was located at a lovely part of the hotel with views of the Arabian sea and the associated breeze at night in the open terrace.

And let's not forget the views of the trees and sea, your instagram and friends will thank you for blessing their phones.

Woobar is a small good bar with Sky View at reception area where we had chilled beer for 3 days with good music.

It was literally amazing feeling, Actually it was our first time been there ,beautiful views and we are really pleased with service from Seema ,excellent service really appreciated and thank you so much for giving us great service ,looking after us.

but the balcony view is little disappointing 
Management is very nice
Level of hospitality is moon way high
Mr Akash babu is very nice guy treated us more than home side 
We really want to visit this property every time in our vacation’s 
Thanks

Had a wonderful experience with stunning sunset and tasty food.

The seafront villa was good views, the food is amazing and it's very near to the beach.

I had taken an upper grade balcony rooms thinking of a good view and a place to sit out in Solace.

The views, tropical greenery, and, architecture was astonishing!

The location of the hotel is Fantastic, the views from the rock pool are some of the best in Goa .

Food was yummilicious ,we were in one of the best chalet 016 facing sea ,supposed to be favorite of all bollywood personalities 😃.

Though the view wasn't really great from the bedroom, the big balcony compensated for the view.

The hotel will leave you stunned with the best services and breathtaking views , kudos to The entire team at W Goa for their hospitality.

Hotel is great stayed in room 008 great view best service.

Large windows overlooking the greenery made one enjoy the mornings over a cup of tea.

The Staff is so friendly and attentive that i remembered all the names with my experience.

From friendly front office and concierge staffs to amicable food & beverages options.

So calm and patient and friendly:) 

A beautiful property aside, it is these small things that make a hotel, a 5 star property. More power to you guys:)

The staff throughout the hotel were very professional, friendly, and extremely helpful.

- I thank the staff especially during morning breakfast buffet, they were very courteous and friendly.

The staff were friendly and helpful and clearly aiming to make the experience a 10/10 from the start.

Everyone from the front desk staff to the concierge to the house keeping staff, restaurants and the activity center were very friendly and humble.

A few names to mention, Aditya - Duty Manager, Virendra and Gregory from housekeeping,  Tilak from the hermitage lounge were super attentive and friendly.

The resort is lovely, well maintained and the staff (as always in all Taj hotels and affiliates) are helpful, friendly and go over and beyond, to make the stay comfortable, memorable and happy. !

Fantastic Housekeeping, Very children friendly and willing staff at Taj Village Resorts.

The staff was extremely friendly and helpful full marks to them , special mention to Rabiul from HK who kept our rooms clean and Lokesh at the restaurant who ensured that non could go back hungry from the breakfast .

Kids loved the activities, specially high rope activities near sunset point, team was so caring and friendly that kids loved to go there each day and did all activities again and again.

The staff at reception were extremely friendly and supportive!

The property is superb .Rooms are very well maintained and the beach view sit out area was relaxing .The staff is very friendly and polite.Restaurants offer variety food.SFX was our favourite with awesome ambience and live music.My kid enjoyed thoroughly in pool.Mr Sanjeev near poolside was very helpful.The playarea giggles is a great activity Center for kids.My kid made cards,tried pottery and painted it too.The taj village is huge and very peaceful.Taj agauda is cozy and lively.Overall an amazing family vacation.Thanks team Taj for the relaxing stay.Will visit again

The staff at reception were friendly and were so keen to know about experiences traveling around and various stories that we have captured.

The morning staff in the breakfast room are friendly and accommodating.

Jerry or Jeremaiah's warm, friendly and delicious food reccos were a highlight, and I'd go back just for the staff like him !

Nisha as extremely friendly and courteous, she gave us first hand information about the resort and the services offered (appreciate this!).

They recommended us Grand 7 casino which was very close to hotel.

We had to call the housekeeping multiple times during our stay to get spiders, worms and lizard out of the room.

But again we had to call the center and make this Fortaquarda booking at a higher cost.

In the end, it closed by itself and we had to call in a mechanic.

Service was prompt & didn't have to call twice for any reminders.

Taj Fort Aguada doesnt quite deliver for the following reasons
1) Our room with a garden facing sitout..room looks like any mid- level hotel room,with a slightly musty smell..the sitout has no privacy..loud neighbour chatting on mobile on one side and smoking neighbour on the other.

Check-out billing process, rude call to check out the room at 12:30 PM, small cockroaches in the room at the ground floor, no light on the pool table were a few of them.

Had to call the tech who fixed it promptly

The phones and watch plugs just couldn't get connected to the power supply to get charged.

It keeps ringing after the operator connects to the concerned desk.No reply is the most frustrating aspect of the service.

The response of house keeping is lethargic, the person answering the calls require training.

Valini for taking my "distress" phone calls at 3 am and being there to fix things .

Finally received the call Sindya Fernandes 
She was very rudely spoken.

This happened over multiple phone calls!!!

but cannot call it a five star property .

So,After a long wait of 4 days of without power,water,internet and even phone signals.Me n my husband checked into this beautiful Taj property called Taj Aguada resorts and spa for a day n kept extending our stay till the time things got normal back at home.

Very poor experience from Taj fort aguada bed linens are very dirty spoting on bed linens
Someone hair lying on room phone and dust as well dust all over in room
In Breakfast again hair lying in upma and on pickle pouch we told chef all this

These type of experience we don't expect from Taj group 
Kids experience they don't want to stay again in any Taj group of hotels 
Very disappointing experience

Repeated complaints to the front desk went unanswered and we were forced to stay in these conditions for the entire duration of our stay.

He used to check with us if we needed anything and he always stocked up extra in our room so that we never had to call for anything.

The telephone helpline was a disaster, though.

Also room size is relatively small especially bathrooms and the overall furniture also needs some renovations.

When we arrived checkin in #136 we have booked for four nights it has lot of mosquitoes and sewage smell as well as washroom is very small.

but the rooms are not well structured as the bathrooms are very small and a lot of space is wasted just for the balcony.

The TV is sited so that only one machine faces it.Nothing like other Taj gyms
Rooms are ok. We had a premium King sea facing which would have been better if we could have seen out of the dirty window to see the sea
Bathrooms are tiny and poorly designed.

Bathrooms are small in comparison to the room size.

The bathrooms are too tiny and even the room felt cramped for space.

The rooms are rather small in size and bathrooms are very small.. being the taj property it is very luxurious!!

The bathroom was rather small and in need of renovation/uplift.

Extremely tiny bathrooms, small pool, poorly maintained breakfast area, Mediocre quality food (Breakfast) despite shelling out 15K.

Rooms are old and bathroom is really small.

but the bathroom was a bit small with an over the bath shower.

I like to thank Mr Ahluwalia Ji, Ms Sanchita, and the entire team the Taj for taking all the efforts to make our stay a memorable one.

The staff is very courteous & goes all out of the way to make your stay extra special .

I had a really good time , I had the most amazing service at taj , the stay was more beautiful then my expectations , mr Dave at reception was very humble gave us amazing response and services and mr prajyot at the pool was really awesome and the drinks were amazing , we had a lot of fun at the village 
My girlfriend had the most amazing birthday , thanx to team taj for such a brilliant services , your team is really amazing 
We would love to visit again !

Our departing day was also made memorable with the staff (Kalpesh) bringing us a Bon Voyage cake.

Their hospitality would amze you with genuine care for guest and extend every possible support by going beyond just commercial boundaries.

We would like to thank Babli, Abigail, Carol and Hilary for their prompt, cordial and attentive care. Thank you : )

Staff is very Courteous and helpful especially Miss Jessyl , Miss Cynthia & Mr. Hilary .

Special thanks to the team Abigail, Bhaskar, Bijoy, Huzefa , Barmo,  Chef Lee and Suresh.

The manager Abigail and housekeeper Pradip were so kind, loving and pampering that our stay became the best one so far.

yummilicious food by chef Dibyendu, Gautam & Team.

The staff is polite, housekeeping at its best, buffet is wonderful.

Comfortable stay And Very co operative staff 
wonderful location ,
Nice food and Hygiene rooms
You can use Taj adjoining property Breakfast ,Beach and swiming pool too
it's great Thing 
 And For that they provide transport service too

All the staff were very accommodating and warm.

The chefs were approachable and very flexible too.

Taj fort Aguada …what can I say about this hotel.. have been coming here for the last  35 odd years and still feels nothing has changed in terms of their hospitality .. the food , the rooms and most importantly the courteous nature of the staff.. 
it’s always been the Taj n it will always remain like that.. 
the meal we had in the Banyan Tree restaurant was outstanding .. the lunch that was prepared for us by Chef Debyendu and his team was out of this world.. 
the breakfast we had in the village was fantastic.. 
all in all it was a fabulous holiday which we didn’t want to end..

If you reach for breakfast in the peak hour of 9:30am expect the staff to forget your order or to get it wrong.

grand-7-casino

grand-7-casino proximity

a slip resistant rubber matt could be placed in the tub.

Bathroom fixtures are not fresh, bath tub fixtures are not proper - when enquired we got an answer that this was a 40 year old property.

The rooms had serious maintenance problems - from TV not working to the bath tub to the room fridge leaking!!.

Also becomes difficult for senior citizens to use a shower by climbing into a tub!

On reaching the room, we found that the bathtub was clogged.

There was 
 a muddy/dirty water flow in bath tub / shower area and sink taps.

The room was perfect, only thing lacking was a bath tub - something my three-year-old missed.

It was the worst thing that you had to stand in the tub bath and have a shower like a old fashioned local Indian hotels.

The bathtubs need to be removed as its completely out of style.

Along with that, they covered the tub with red roses.

Unfortunately, the bathtub was not operational in this room and hence we had to move again to another room.

Excellent experience overallSuggest the following:1.Spillage of water from bath cubicle should be avoided,, as there is risk of slippery floor and falling down, bath tub can be removed and improvements made.2.Cottage 1099 is facing west with direct sun in the afternoon;Providing a rolling screen in the front area will be helpful so that one can sit out and enjoy the breeze bereft of glare and heat;3.Locate TV at a lower leel4.Plan fruit bearing trees to attract more birds5.Reorient the bed in a such a way in Cottage 1099 such that while sleeping head  position is not north facing5.TV reception of NDTV and TImes now channels were getting interrupted at times;Pl look into

but charmingly decorated from inside, bathtub included.

Rooms are NOT updated (we were in 1076, 1078, 1079)
2) Bathrooms are small, and the tub is also the shower area - no segregation
3) The Holiday Village - despite it's size - has limited dining options (although you can use the restaurants at the Taj Aguada next door) 
4) Toiletries - reputed brand Forest Essentials used -

They have 3 restaurants Caravela(Multi cuisine, Coco beach n Banayan Tree( Thai).

Other activities: near to resort u can find a boat ride which takes u to see dolphins n other attractions can also be seen from here like aguada fort n jail, Coco beach some bungalows of rich people n a very nice view.

If you are looking for leisure vacation must visit.staffs are very friendly n helpful.

The staff was so friendly and helpful that we felt at home.

Place was great and got warmth of brand taj.. staff was friendly and polite.. always smiling.. chefs at caravela restaurent was kind enough to always be there for us.. lived our stay and food was equally amazing..

All staff were always helpful and friendly.

As parents of a little kid we found the property as well as staff to be quite friendly.

Lovely, friendly staff from the lobby to the spa, the executive chef to the restaurant manager, the wait staff to house keeping.

the staff were friendly and very accommodating.

the staff was very welcoming and friendly.

By the end of the trip, all the staff members knew the kids names and were so friendly with them.
