We chose the hotel for its proximity to the beach and price (up to 75.000).
First time in India and second time in a 3* hotel. If I am going to India again, then only in 5 *.
1. location: close to beach 5 - the hotel is on the 1st line, Varca beach is clean, there are few people, the sand crunches, the waves are strong enough after 12.00, to swim you need to swim away, in the morning the sea is more or less calm. The sea is shallow, especially at low tide. The nearest necks are 200 meters to the left from the hotel, there are necks to the right, but much further.
In proximity to civilization, 3 - to the nearest shops in Varka (very modest) on foot about 40 minutes, by taxi - 5 minutes. Many different shops in Cavelossim - by taxi about 15 minutes.
On the beach near the hotel there are hotel sunbeds - free, but there are few of them - 15 pieces and our tourists go to take them at 7 in the morning. We lay either on a towel on the sand or on sunbeds near the shakes (free of charge if you order something in the shake).
2. Meals - compared to other hotels that other tourists told us about, breakfasts are very decent: cereal, scrambled eggs, watermelon, some drink (cold cocoa, milkshake, etc. ), buns, toast, pancakes, jam - so-so, butter - aka maragarin, several types of local dishes (cous-cous, spicy peas, potatoes in various forms, unleavened cakes, stewed vegetables, chicken offal). Everything is periodically replenished so that those who come later get it.
We ate quite well for breakfast, especially when there were few Russians in the hotel, as Russians were brought in en masse - jam, butter, rolls, etc. , disappeared. they fill to the eyeballs, and do not have time to replenish, and food is still a limited amount.
We dined in necks - very cheap (average bill without wine for 2 - first or second and compote - 1000 rupees - 500 rubles) and quite tasty, especially seafood dishes. The cleanliness is of course relative, but these are beach cafes, there were no disorders. We liked the food in the "Sunset Paradise" neck (to the left along the beach from the hotel exit) and in the necks to the right of the hotel about 1 km (I don’t remember the name, but the prices there is lower than in the necks that are next to the hotel). I didn't like the food in Capricorn - like in a canteen, not professional and not tasty.
3. numbers - just awful. We had a Garden villa (we ordered the most expensive room right away, because we were warned that everything is very modest in India at 3 *) - dirt, although they clean it every day, windows, frames in dirt and mold, broken-down furniture, all tattered, stained, curtains on the windows like doormats. The bed linen is washed, in stuck spots, the towels are just a nightmare - stained (it feels like they are washing the floor), washed out, there are holes in them, poorly dried - the smell of old mustiness - bue, it’s disgusting to wipe yourself, we brought our beach towels from home - wiped them off.
In the room - 5 l bottle of water, tea-cafe, sugar, kettle, cups, soap, we didn't have a refrigerator - we tried to demand, they said that it was not provided. Although in some other rooms it was.
And the most terrible thing for me is the humidity and the stink of old moisture in the room, the fan and air conditioning do not help, they constantly open the door and window (so that there is fresh air).
All clothes stink like from a barn-cellar.
In general, as a Soviet camp site, only amenities in the room.
In our room, behind a curtain, there lived 2 gigons, apparently of different sexes, because. at night, for 4 days, they "shouted songs" - they got sick of their trills. Were in Tae in 3 * - there were no gigons in the room.
there were mosquitoes in the room, but we took fumitox.
4. The territory of the hotel is normal, small, greenery / flowers, clean enough, chipmunks jump through the trees, benches along the road to the beach.
5. service - beach towels are given out by the pool, money was changed at the jeweler (the rate is good - 61 rupees for 1 buck), the reception has a small shop for souvenirs, rags, teas (there is nothing to take except for men's T-shirts, rags are like in the cheapest Vietnamese market, tea with an expiration date), and a jeweler's shop - carpets, gold, silver (there are beautiful rings - the prices are normal, the jeweler is generally a very nice person).
The territory of the hotel is rarely cleaned - bottles, gobies and candy wrappers lie on the lawns for weeks (while they periodically move from one lawn to another).
there is a small swimming pool, they clean it every day, the children flounder there, but the adults are at sea.
On Mondays they have a party next to the beach with live music - admission is 100 rupees.
There are bike rentals.
6. We took long-distance excursions from the guide, you can take a taxi from the hotel to different beaches and sightseeing tours - prices are 1.5-2 times cheaper than the guide.
7. general impression - the hotel is always full, the guests of the hotel are mostly adult couples - from 40 and pensioners, there are few children - therefore it is quite quiet and calm. I will never go to this hotel and will not recommend to anyone. I’m also unlikely to return to India - only if I see the Taj Mahal.
Attention: there are fleas in India (not lice, namely dog-cat fleas), we did not understand where we caught them on the beach or in the room, but they bit us decently. Their bites are very itchy and heal for a long time - they swell with blisters and, if you pick it open, ichor oozes. Upon returning home, everything slowly healed.
