Delicious Food & Wonderful Stay!
We had a fantastic time at this hotel! The food was absolutely amazing, with a whooooole lot of varieties to choose from. Everything we tried was delicious and well-prepared.
The rooms were fine—comfortable and equipped with plenty of facilities to make our stay enjoyable. While they weren’t extraordinary, they were more than decent.
Overall, the stay was wonderful, thanks to the excellent food, great facilities, and welcoming atmosphere. Would definitely recommend it!

Just got back - certainly 5 star for location and staff. Food also very good when you found the a la carte menu. Le Shack fish restaurant is probably the best seafood we have eaten. You choose, they cook. The staff in all locations were superb. Genuinely honest, caring and kind people. Too many to mention!
The hotel is a little tired in decor, but certainly nothing to complain about.

Taj hotels are fabulous places to stay. One of their charms is that they carry a certain old-world elegance. This is sometimes a little faded in places, which is the case here. Having said that, it's only round the edges of the fabric of the building & grounds. If you appreciate top quality service from staff who have a warm smile, look no further.
We had a recently refurbished room with a sea view, which was just lovely. A little extra storage space for a 9 day stay would have been perfect. The new bathrooms, however, are divine with a gorgeous rainfall shower.
The room was kept spotless by the staff whose astonishing efficiency is something to behold.
The pool area is very pleasant, the breakfast buffet is sumptuous, the bar is charming in the late afternoon.

Excellent hotel, felt very luxurious and safe. Great friendly staff, very welcoming. Sam from the Palms restaurant was super attentive - thank you.
It's so easy to go surfing and 1 hour surf lessons are great fun.l! Super relaxing.
Room service excellent!

Had a great stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, though some areas of the hotel are a little worn and could use an update. However that shouldn’t detract from an enjoyable stay. The sea view from our room was stunning. Service was excellent, with a special mention to Sampath from Concierge who very kindly helped us pack/box some of our oversized fragile souvenirs. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel.
