The restaurant at The Dunes is where we ate many evenings during our stay at Mandrem Beach. There was often live music and we were even entertained one night by a local birthday party. The food was always excellent, especially the spring rolls that come with an amazing sauce and the tandoori chicken that was finger licking good! There is... More

Pros: Amazing value. Holiday village is brilliantly set up. Clean, simple but functional rooms. Great sun loungers (although there could be more). Pretty, atmospheric restaurant. Crazy but exceptionally helpful male receptionist (always running around the village on some errand or another). The 'corner shop' on the edge of the village stock all the basics and the old lady who runs... More

I stayed in a larger beach hut as it was the last one available. The location is excellent-a short walk down to the beach where there's free to use sun loungers. The beach is clean and huge when the tide goes out!! Dunes is in a quiet location, probably a 15 minute taxi ride from Arambol. The food in the... More

Short of words to describe one of the most amazing holiday experience i have ever had. We had stayed in a cottage with a very rustic ambience. Anthony and Ram at the reception would make sure that your all needs are taken care of...right from guiding every thing about Goa to arranging all your travel needs. Going out of the... More

Dunes had been recommended to us by dear friends and so we booked ahead. Located about 30 mins from Pernem station it is far away from the circus that Calangute and rest of touristy Goa has become. We mainly chose it because of its proximity to Ashwem which we have been visiting from past 7 years. Unfortunately Ashwem is no... More

Located right on the dunes behind the beach, with clean, comfortable beach huts (the beds were a little hard after 5 nights!!), I thought it was THE best all-round beach resort in all of Goa (we've been as far south as Palolem, and north to Arambol). Compared to all those glitzy, touristy places mentioned in the brochures such as Anjuna,... More

The dunes is set a midst coconut trees on a long strip of sand leading to the restaurant..then there is a bamboo bridge going to the sea..The huts are all pretty and comfortable and the restaurant has great food and a chilled atmosphere. It gets quite busy though but the service remains good. The staff are helpful and will serve... More

This was one of the best places we stayed in Goa. We were here for 4 days and the hut was very clean, service was good, beach was pristine and the restaurant was quite good with a gorgieous view. There isn't much to do in Mandrem so it is important to find a place with a good restaurant and a... More

I stayed here with my boyfriend for 5 nights and we absolutely loved it. We had stopped by Vagator and weren't too impressed by the beach as we were looking for something a little idilic.. and Mandrem beach where Dunes is located is just that! There are lots of beach huts right on the beach which provide basic but clean,... More
