“Great location but........”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 December 2011

WHATS GOOD: Located 350m from a fab beach with loads of shacks where a curry is £1.50 and a beer a quid. Rooms big clean, free aircon, sheets changed every day, towels for pool. mini bar.

WHATS OK: Pool looks a bit murky (never see anyone swimming in it) and its not as big as it looks from the hotel website). The waiting on staff are quite simply miserable, getting tea and coffee off them for the average breakfast is a chore. Food in hotel no better then the shacks but more expensive. Better hotel than A la Goa hotel 300m away

THE BAD: The bar is unmanned half the time so difficult to get a drink. Signs up saying its unsafe to go on the beach after 8pm. (B**LOCKS!) Its just to get you to eat in the hotel. At £80 per night its a bit pricey for what is a basic hotel with no facilities.

“Great Location but Restaurant needs improvement”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 November 2011

person found this review helpful

I stayed at Coconut Grove Resort on a Business Trip. Location of Resort is excellent and has nice lawns. Rooms as nice and clean. Beach was not at all crowded in morning and just a short walk away from Resort. But the key issue of Resort is it's Restaurant. I shockingly found a cockroach in my breakfast plate; With that one can gauge cleanliness in Restaurant. The Resort Manager apologized to me after Check-Out. Breakfast options were also limited.

“Great time”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 October 2011

A pretty good place, if you just want to unwind and relax. The beach is just a stone's throw away and is very serene. One can easily spend hours just walking along the sea for 2-3 kms in either directions, or even roam in the Suru trees along the beach.

The rooms are nice, and 1st floor rooms have a balcony - which is a nice place to relax, watching the sun go down. Great service, all staff were very helpful and prompt.

Things to look out for:
- Small swimming pool
- Be wary of the sight-seeing package. It promises quite a few things, but you will fall short of time if you start at 3pm. You must start around 11am to visit all places properly. The car however is quite comfy (a Innova) and drivers as well as Mr Mark the manager are helpful.
- No restaurants close by. Unfortunately, you are solely dependent on the in-house restaurant, which is not consistent - even with the buffet course changed! On our second day, the a la carte menu was not available because they had some big group booking!

Room Tip: Ground floor rooms to not have balcony, but you can sit-out in the lawn enjoying the moonlight

“Excellent Place to stay in South Goa”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 August 2011

Had gone to this resort on recommendation of a friend. One of the finest resort i have seen in South Goa. It consists of individual studio rooms instead of a tall building. The beach is just a 5 minute walk at the back of the resort.

The food available for breakfast, lunch and dinner was excellent. The silence was heavenly and the whole resort was maintained very well.

If you are going to stay in South Goa then this is the resort to be.
