Hotel is great, but be aware of the jewelers called See N Smile outside the hotel to the left. Bought 2 bracelets supposed to be silver, are not, BS about if any problems email them. Guess what email does not exist. Not thee until next season, but be on your guard. Con men.

All the rooms are in bungalows set out like a village with the most beautifully tended gardens all around. Rooms were clean and fresh towels and bed linen provided each day. There is direct access to the beach, where loungers were... More

The DS is a great hotel, plenty of room around the resort....you don't get pushed at dinner due to the amount of space.

The beds and pillows are extremely comfy and very clean, they change... More

We went on a last minute deal with Thompsons, never having been A/I to Goa before. We had e-mailed ahead asking for a room with a private terrace or balcony, and that is what we were allocated after a short wait in reception upon arrival. We had room 115, and it was very nice with beautiful views of the garden... More

Two things to bear in mind regarding this hotel, firstly, in comparison with others in the area it is less expensive, and secondly it's located in Goa not St Lucia. The rooms at the hotel are adequate, not great but not bad, the swimming pool is decent, it has a 6 1/2ft deep end which usually means kids stay at... More
