The Leela was named one of World's Top 100 hotels in a recent Conde Nast review - and I can see why. We always stay at 5* hotels and are used to South / East Asian hospitality - but this place set a new benchmark in quality of service. Even the check in - so annoying in so many otherwise fine establishments - was handled in the comfort of your armchair in the lounge, with drinks and coconuts served and without the need to ever come closer to the reception desk.

Great property , a little walk to the beach, but amenities make up for it. Food was excellent. Lots of restaurants nearby for food options. They also call Taxi service for you to go anywhere within Goa. Pool was great. Massage Spa was great.

My wife, father-in-law, and 1yr old son stayed at the Taj for six nights. We were very impressed with the grounds of the hotel, and the service was impeccable. The beach area was clean and breezy and the options of activities at the hotel were numerous. The staff members loved our son and there seemed to be many other families. Anil, Flavian, and Inas were three staff members that really went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable; they were personable and shared a lot of good...

They wait on me hand and foot in all aspects. Plenty of staff to always have you takem care of without any complaints or even a worry. All the food was great I cleaned my plate almost everytime and that is rare at a buffet because you are trying so many different things. Legit five stars.

The property was amazing! It truly defined a heritage hotel ā every corner felt authentically Goan. The staff were wonderful and the food was amazing too, though a bit on the pricier side as expected
