We stayed there for three days in Feb 2013 along with my wife. This was my second visit at the property. I like its location in the North Goa. The hotel does not have private beach but being situated at the end of the Beach Line, it is not very crowded and there are available water sports at the beach.... More

This is a hard review to write because there is so much to like here, and so many issues that need to be mentioned. In all fairness the overall experience varies depending on the perspective. For someone like me who has been to India but never to Goa, I knew that I would be visiting a more "laid back" part... More

I had read a dozen reviews on tripadvisor and settled for Taj Aguada for our family holiday...with a few apprehensions! The apprehensions disappeared quickly as the Taj experience I had read about became a reality. Airport pickup: The transit was smooth and we were well taken care of Checkin: The process was superquick, no time wasted...we were asked to have... More

This was the fourth time we came back to Taj Fort Aguada in almost as many years. And to our pleasant surprise we got an upgrade to the Presidential Villa right on top of the hill near the sunset point. Needless to say, it was a fabulous week long stay. And the dinner at the Banyan Tree in the neighbouring... More

Being Taj its expensive but still worth it when you have the overall experience , the hotel staff is excellent and very very helpful. Food is good but... More

We enjoy our stay at the Aguada in Goa so much that we keep going back every year. There was one year when we were at the Aguada four times! The hotel overlooks the wonderful ocean and the sound of the waves is so calming, so enriching. The hotel has three restaurants and one outdoor restaurant has live music in... More

From the second we checked into this hotel we loved it. The location is spectacular. Great for beach walking. And the fort as sunset made for stunning photos. The staff was great, the rooms were spotless, the grounds tropical and beautiful. Great pool and cabanas. Safety gate guards at entrance and at beach made we women traveling alone feel very... More

This was my fifth stay at the property and as always because of its unique location it was fully satisfying. This was a first time I took the all meals package.... Though had no intention of putting it to full use... But sad to say that the meals provided in the package did not do justice to the Taj name... More

This hotel gives an excellent Panoramic view of sea. The perfect sea view can be seen from lobby or from the rooms. One can enjoy the serenity of sea in the day time and can enjoy the sound of sea waves at night. The sunset point of hotel which is located at the top of the hill or you can... More

The location is the USP of this property with all good beaches in north goa very close by. And offcourse the sea view...though it lacks a restaurant on the beach to complete the experience. Otherwise my expectation was much more from this hotel. Somehow it lacked the grandeur of a taj property.
