At the outset, let me say, I have been always been in awe of the 'Taj Group' given that they are known to be India's best, when it comes to 'Service attitude'. I haven't been fortunate to visit their properties but had the good fortune of visiting the 'Taj Exotica' in Goa, about 6 years ago. Taj-Fort Aguada, is definitely... More

Stayed at this hotel with my wife and 3 year old daughter for 3 days. The trip from the airport to the hotel itself was very tiring and we got further delayed as there was a fallen tree on the main road. The coach driver tried to go through another road but as it was very narrow the coach got... More

After a really stressful journey into Goa (flight to Mumbai, delayed internal flight to Goa, 80 minute coach to resort) the calmness and serenity of this resort is what struck me first. Quiet, calm, lots of staff on hand, sound of the sea - just as well, considering my stress levels from the journey! The lobby (important to me and... More

Just back from a lovely vacation at Taj Fort Aguada. First on the hotel - its an old property so looks bit dated in some areas but still beautiful, the lobby is old-world and very charming with amazing views of the never ending beach. Pool is nice enough and restaurants are good. We had a room called 'Premium Indulgence Cottage'... More

This was my second visit here. The location is amazing overlooking the Aguada beach & the historic fort. I stayed in a hill top villa & the landscaping is truly beautiful. Sunset point is breath taking. The only thing they need to do is ramp up the rooms interiors to the contemporary style. The new villas that are coming up... More

Great view of the water and you can hear the waves from every corner of the hotel. Excellent food... Service: Good. But stops short of the usual Taj service. Baga beach and other buzzing places about 20 min drive... Did not venture into the adjoining holiday village...which i hear works well for families with kids. It's a dated property and... More

Lovely hotel pure luxury for a very good price. Stayed with daughter, patents, sister and her new husband. Staff couldn't do enough for you. Pool lovely. All restaurants served really good food. Would recommend for everyone. Only downside is taxis taking you into the main area will charge you double as they know you are staying at the Taj. More

Overall a good property. Front desk is professional and helpful. The restaurants are busy all the time and may not cater to requests outside the menu (I only say this because other Taj's do!) Now for the more detailed review. Stayed here for two nights in mid Jan-2012. Overall a nice big property along the fort. It connects to the... More
