Our stay at Fairfield by Marriott Benaulim was absolutely wonderful! The team went above and beyond to make our experience memorable, starting with an early check-in, which was a lifesaver as we were traveling with two young kids. This thoughtful gesture was deeply appreciated.
They also offered us a discounted breakfast package, and staying for almost five nights, we must say we thoroughly enjoyed it every single day. The breakfast experience felt more like fine dining than a typical buffet—the team was incredibly attentive, serving everything directly to the table. They even surprised our kids with special treats, which made breakfast even more delightful.
A special mention goes to the Executive Chef, whose presence was felt daily as he personally interacted with guests, including us. His warm gestures, like offering pastries to our kids, made us feel so cared for.
The housekeeping manager was proactive and quick to address our room needs, even ensuring we were moved to a better room to make our stay more comfortable.
Overall, the hospitality, attention to detail, and genuine care we received during our stay made this a truly unforgettable experience. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay so special. We can’t wait to return—see you soon!

After a wedding in Pune we decided to go for a break at this hotel. I can't praise enough the staff. Especially mentions for Arun,always taking care of you, Nikita and Dellinton always smiling and nothing too much trouble. The Senior Chef Pranjal Gogoi always wanted to know if everything was OK if not let him know any requests you have and he will deliver, never in my life have seeing a Executive Chef asking clients to see if everything is OK. Food plentiful and to suit all tastes,with free water In the PR I must mention SRUTI she was fantastic. We had a small problem with the booking which she resolved very promptly and without any fuss. Sorry we couldn't say goodbye to Sruti as she was having a day off and once again saying a big thanks. The hotel rooms have everything you need, plenty of bottled water, tooth brush and paste, air conditioning free safe, iron and iron board etc. It's situated about 5 minutes walk from the beach however the hotel supplies free transport. The swimming pool is good and supply with many towels as you need. There is a bar by the pool. Round the corner there's a taxi rank with very reasonable prices. My favourite food was Chorizo Pao give it a try!

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveller reviews.
Just arrived back home after 5 nights at this excellent hotel. This is a 4 star with 5 star service which was impeccable. Some reviews say the rooms are small so we went for a family studio which was modern and big enough and also we could walk from our terrace to the pool which was a good size, very clean and not too busy. The location is good with a few minutes walk to a fantastic beach with shacks serving great food and low prices and you get a bed free if drink and eat there. Great points- Beach and pool towels everywhere. Even at the back entrance to the beach along with free water. Room service was quick and affordable. Great breakfast, mainly indian but could order fresh bacon, fried eggs etc and even eggs Benedict. Pool bar offered Great service and brought drinks to your sunbed, of which there were ample when we were there Room cleaning top notch. They do have weddings there and corporate events but the hotel manages them away from the main guest areas. The dinner buffet is very indian which I mentioned on check out and within a minute the executive chef came over and had said they would have made me more European options if I had asked. So my fault really. He even offered us a free packed lunch. Overall the service was definitely 5 star and highly recommend this hotel. There are beach restaurants within a few minutes walk but only open for part of the year due to the monsoon season. . There are other shops and restaurants in the village 10 mins walk away. The area is very quiet and relaxing. No Uber here so taxis are quite expensive but not hotels fault.
We would definitely return but only if beach shacks were open on the glorious beach. Thanks Fairfield.

Dear Guest, Thank you for choosing Fairfield by Marriott Goa Benaulim and for sharing this fantastic review! It sounds like you had an exceptional 5-night stay, and we're thrilled to hear it. We appreciate you acknowledging that our service surpasses our 4-star rating. We take great pride in our team's dedication to exceeding guest expectations and providing genuine hospitality. Knowing you found the family studio spacious, modern, and convenient with terrace access to the pool is wonderful. We offer a variety of room options to suit different needs, and it's great that yours perfectly accommodated your family. The beautiful Benaulim Beach with its beach shacks is a definite advantage of our location, and we're happy you enjoyed the proximity and amenities like complimentary towels, water, and sunbeds. We strive to create a comfortable and relaxing beach experience for our guests. We appreciate you highlighting the positive aspects like quick and affordable room service, delicious breakfast with options to customize, attentive poolside service, and immaculate housekeeping. It's fantastic to hear you enjoyed all these aspects of your stay. We apologize if the dinner buffet options weren't exactly what you were looking for. It's commendable that you brought it to our attention at checkout. The chef's willingness to accommodate your preferences and offer European options upon request demonstrates our commitment to guest satisfaction. We're always looking for ways to improve, and your feedback is valuable. Thank you for understanding that weddings and corporate events are sometimes held at the hotel. We take steps to ensure minimal disruption to our main guest areas. We're happy to hear you would consider returning, but understand your preference for having the beach shacks open. The monsoon season does impact their operation hours, but many reopen during the peak tourist season. Thank you again for recommending our hotel! We look forward to welcoming you back whenever your travels bring you back to Goa. We'll be sure to keep you updated on the beach shack seasonality if you'd like. Sincerely, Vinayak Patnekar General Manager

A Charming Beachside Escape with Room for Improvement
Fairfield is a charming hotel nestled close to the beach, offering a delightful blend of relaxation and entertainment. The location is perfect for those looking to enjoy the sun and sand, with easy access to vibrant beach shacks and a lively evening atmosphere that’s perfect for unwinding.
Despite its cozy size, the hotel impressively houses all essential facilities, including a well-maintained pool and a variety of recreational options for both indoor and outdoor sports enthusiasts. It offers a great value for money, being budget-friendly while still associated with a big brand, which adds a touch of reliability and comfort.
However, there are a couple of areas where the hotel could improve. The food, unfortunately, did not quite meet expectations, and I found myself hoping for more variety and flavor in the dining options. Additionally, the room sizes are on the smaller side, so I recommend booking the highest category family room for a more comfortable stay. All rooms are equipped with queen-size beds, which may not be ideal for larger groups or families.
Overall, Fairfield is a delightful choice for travelers seeking a budget-friendly beachside escape with all the necessary amenities, but it could enhance its appeal with a few improvements in the dining experience and room accommodations.

he Fairfield Mariott are the 4 star mid range level resort/hotel offerings from the Mariott group.
The resort is situated in Benaulim ,south Goa and about 500 meters walk from the benaulim beach. The property is well planned and. centered around a big size pool. Innerside rooms face the pool while the outer side have the fields view. The resort offers 140 plus rooms from standard to family rooms. Size of the rooms are small as compared to 5 star resorts. The resort is built in 2020 and all facilities are well maintained. However we still had repair work going on during our stay. For kids and families , it has a kids room (Though small in size) and outdoor games areas including the trampoline, basketball area, small football playing area plus cricket pitch. For our 3 night stay in Goa we have booked the family room which is the biggest in size. Room offers all the standard facilities as normal. Bathrooms don’t have tub. Pool is well maintained and is a delight for families visiting during summers. The bar next to the pool offers all drinks and starters for everyone to relax around. Live music is played during weekends.
Being a 4 star, Fairfield Mariott offers only one restaurant Kava which serves all the 3 meals. Breakfast spread is good especially the South Indian fare and parathas. Service is quick and staff very courteous. Please avoid the Italian offerings especially the pizzas as they lack the authentic taste and flavours.
The special thali as publicised and only made on prior request is also average. But we truly relished all their Indian fare. In room service is fast.
Food in the resort is very light on your wallet.
While I feel the benaulim beach does not offer privacy as compared to other resorts in south goa, it do offers very good options for food from very good shacks especially Johncy’s and southern deck.
Also , unique is their small store next to lobby to buy some essentials.
Appreciate the conservation efforts put in by resorts to offer water in resealable glass bottles and doing away with plastic bottles.
For travelers and visitors preferring a good options in south Goa keeping their budget , one can surely go for it.

Our stay at the Fairfield Benaulim was our second hotel stay during our visit to Goa this season. We were looking for a property to enjoy the monsoon rains whilst still being close to the beach and this property definitely met these two criteria.
The Benaulim beach is a 5 min walk away and unlike the beaches up north was clean and soft - ideal for when you have kids.
We primarily ordered room service and were very much satisfied with the quality and timeliness of food served. Breakfast was good and they had plenty of live stations to support any taste bud.
The team was overall courteous and polite. Special mention to Chef Mudasir who was eager to accommodate our child's special dietary needs. The other team members at the restaurant - Rohith, Aaron, Rohan were also very helpful. At the front desk Ms. Shruti always had a smile on her face and was very helpful.
The property as such was relatively new and well maintained. We were very impressed with their mosquito management system which was very effective considering we were close to so many water bodies. Even though this is a small detail it really did enhance the pleasure of our stay. The property also bottles their own water glass bottles which is commendable as it supports the environment.
The other amenities worth mentioning are their Kids Club (Ground Floor) and Games Room (1st Floor). We however do wish they had an Activity Board at the lobby which would detail any activities planned for the next few days. We almost missed the pottery activity that was scheduled in the late afternoon.
It was an overall great stay and would recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a family friendly, peaceful beach abode when their travels bring them to South Goa.

Dear Guest, Warm greetings from Fairfield by Marriott Goa Benaulim! Thank you for taking the time to write such a fantastic review! We're delighted to hear that our property was the perfect peaceful oasis you were hunting for during your monsoon getaway. It sounds like Benaulim beach was exactly what you needed.

We're glad you enjoyed our room service and the delicious breakfast options, especially the live stations. Our associates always try to ensure every guest is comfortable and has a relaxing time with us. A big thank you for mentioning Chef Mudasir, Rohit, Aaron, Rohan, and Shruti for their dedication to providing exceptional service. They truly value your shout-out and would always love to have you and your family back at the hotel. We're also glad to hear our mosquito management efforts were effective. Thanks to our housekeeping associates, those pesky critters could not put a damper on your vacation! And we couldn't agree more about the importance of eco-friendly practices, so we're glad you appreciate our reusable water bottles. Thanks for the feedback about the activity board. We'll definitely look into implementing one in the lobby to keep guests informed about upcoming events. Overall, we're so glad you had a great stay and would recommend us to others. We hope to welcome you back to Fairfield Benaulim again soon! Sincerely, Vinayak Patnekar General Manager

Our 4-night stay at the Fairfield Marriott, Benaulim, was absolutely delightful. Ms. Indu Singh from Club Marriott went above and beyond to secure our reservations, even after previous cancellations, for which we are incredibly grateful.
The staff at Fairfield Benaulim, from security to housekeeping, were outstanding—consistently attentive, helpful, and engaging. The team at the coffee shop stood out with their prompt and impeccable service, with a special mention to Aaron for his outstanding hospitality. Chef Pranjal Gogoi and his team amazed us with their exceptional culinary skills, turning every meal into a delightful experience. The General Manager, Mr. Vinayak Patnekar, was a true gem—jovial, approachable, and dedicated to ensuring our experience was nothing short of perfect.
We were equally impressed by the housekeeping team, particularly McKenzie, who kept our room in pristine condition. Four nights simply didn’t feel long enough, given the incredible time we had. We eagerly look forward to visiting Marriott Benaulim again for another unforgettable experience.

Location is very good as it's just walking distance from the beach but the property does not have direct access to the beach.
Food: breakfast typical taste of 5* resort (mildly spiced) but buffet spread is excellent. Lots of ites from local cuisines, North Indian, south indian, maharashtrian, continental spread , live counters for eggs. Parathas, dosa and waffles and pancakes.
Service: impeccable. Each and every staff member is enthusiastic for making your stay most comfortable and memorable. Especially hous keeping girl name Ms Quincy was very perticular for cleaning beds, linens and entire room to make sure that there is no particle of sand is left anywhere.
Dinner: The Buffett was in service but we ordered various snacks and some Thai dishes with extra spice. So the chef has to make special recipe which would take some time. So the supervisor served us some complimentary veg and non veg starters and papads to keep us occupied from getting bored. It was very thoughtful of hime and very nice gesture.
Swimming pool: great size , crystal clear, ample quantity of towels for pool as well as beach.
Spa: small but cosy and comfortable. The measure from Kerala (forgot his name) treated me very well with deep tissue massage. I was so relaxed that I just fall a sleep.
Room: bit small but bed was too small to comfortably fit 2 adults.
General upkeep: excellent

The resort is good in most areas but lacks in a few areas . Not a 5 star based on the room size and cleanliness of the bathrooms . The bathrooms are very small , the water comes out of the shower and makes the whole floor wet after a shower . The bathroom walls not cleaned well and had mould and mould on the bottom of the shower door ,the glass door of the bathroom was not cleaned . We asked the housekeeping to clean the walls one morning ,they tried. Room was clean but very cramped . No space to put the luggage only for 1 suitcase . No balcony in the room and we booked a balcony queen room for 2 adults and a child but were give a twin room because we had a child and they had to put a rollaway bed which made the room even more cramped . The pool area , games room etc was very good . Good resort for families with young kids . It gets really hot and there is no air conditioned Lounge where you can sit and relax . When we wanted to cool down we had to sit in the restaurant. Restaurant was one of the highlights great food ala Carte and buffets . Breakfast manager was very good , great sevice including all staff in the restaurant. Breakfast was good many options and delicious. Sundays they have a brunch buffet but we were not informed about it on checkin so we just finished breakfast buffet and then we saw the brunch which looked amazing but we were too full to have it, if we knew we would have not rushed to have the breakfast. Spa just has two treatment rooms no other facilities so opted to go for spa treatments at a nearby 5 star hotel . If you want to be near the beach this hotel is not ideal. It is near the beach not even 5 min walk but to walk from the hotel to the beach the area is very dirty and smelly with stray dogs everywhere. This is not a beach hotel . After checking out the walk to the beach once we did not go Back but rather took a taxi to a cleaner beach area where we could walk to the beach comfortably . If theses few things can resolved it would be a really great location .

Dear Guest, Thank you for the feedback shared in regard to your recent visit with us. I recognize that your time is valuable and appreciate the feedback you have provided. Receiving warm and friendly service from our staff sets the tone for a great stay. This was not your experience, and I sincerely apologize for failing to meet your expectations. I have shared your feedback with the Housekeeping Leadership, and as a teachable moment, we have discussed our service standards and reviewed improvement opportunities in the service they provide. I am confident that these necessary steps will ensure your experience with housekeeping in an isolated incident. We fell short of meeting your expectations for dining options. Though we do spend a lot of time training our team to deal with situations, I have made a note of these and am addressing them internally. Regarding concerns relating to the design of the rooms, we have very little control, but when it comes to the service quotient, that is the essence of a resort, and for that service, you become a loyal patron. We are a young team, and we have taken your feedback as an opportunity to re-train ourselves and emerge as better hospitality professionals. Thank you again for your candid feedback. I hope you choose to stay with us again whenever your travels bring you back to the area. Warm Regards, Vinayak Patnekar General Manager

Didn't see any beach shacks or sunbeds on the stretch of Benaulim beach next to Fairfield. This could be due to the monsoon season as we were there in August. A very popular beachfront place is The Southern Deck. Good food, great location with view of the sunset and great atmosphere!! The day we went, there was a live band and the atmosphere was electric!!
There are more places to choose from in the Benaulim area.
