Hi all. So we went to Goa. We rested at the Kenilworth 4 * hotel. I am a husband and our 5 year old daughter. cool. Fly around 8 hours. Daughter took it just fine. There was a night flight from Domodedovo. Everyone was asleep. I read before the trip that the Indians are slow and it takes a long time to wait for clearance at the airport. Nothing like this. Everything is fine. There is a line, of course, but it moves quickly. documents are drawn up by several people (customs officers). Arrived. Representatives of Pegasus met us. The first impression is, of course, dirty. They put us in a small bus and took us. It doesn't take long to get to the hotel. minutes 15-20. Hotel Kenilworth is normal, pulls on 4 stars.
1) -Cleaned every day. But (horror) I found out at night that something was crawling over me. I told the cleaners this morning. The whole day the staff was engaged in killing cockroaches or some other disgusting thing. After that, I never saw a single insect. This was the only downside.
2) -Breakfast is good - you can choose hot (fried potatoes, hot beans, bacon, sausages and some other Indian food) and an omelet with any filling to choose from. and the egg will be cooked if you ask (for my daughter she asked, they brought it in a special stand). and a dry breakfast for children of 3 varieties. oatmeal muesli toast and jam with butter. buns. Tea or coffee is served by waiters. For breakfast everything is very good. After breakfast, you either need to go to another beach, or you can walk through the hotel and go to the beach. There are a lot of cafes there. Immediately left on the beach is better not to go. that they gave us a lot of money there. but to (already the legend of GOA) in the CAFE AT UNCLE KOLI GO MANDATORY. Very tasty and whatever you want. This cafe is (if you go to the beach from the hotel and go left) about 10-15 minutes walk along the beach. Doesn't stress. Of course, sellers of scarves and all sorts of nonsense pester. Don't pay attention to them, they'll leave.

You will come to a cafe (there are two nearby), go through the first one, but the second one with a yellow advertisement with green letters (THE REAL CAFE AT UNCLE KOLYA) is the same cafe. You will be met by guys in yellow T-shirts. Lunch for 4 adults and 2 children costs approximately 3500 rupees. (with beer with fresh juices and any Coca-Cola)
3) - Go to the market for souvenirs
(night arpora-specific place. open on saturdays. advertised price can be knocked down a lot. ) Take rupees with you. In dollars, they announce several times more expensive.
4) -The pool is large. There is a hill. Jacuzzi (you have to ask to be included)
5) - In the evenings, every other day, holidays are held on the territory of the hotel (as they call it). It's a buffet and some average fun. All this costs 1000 rupees per person. We went 2 times. Not interesting and not particularly tasty.
6)-Beaches. There are several. They are all different. even the sand is different. The ocean water is so warm and clear. I didn't see any living things.
Waves all the time. Not big. Cool.
