My stay in the resort was overall wonderful, thanks to the stunning beachfront location and friendly staff. The rooms offered a fantastic view and were comfortable, although they did get quite warm during the day. The dining experience was generally good, albeit with room for more local dishes. The facilities were mostly impressive, especially the pool area, making it a great value for money. However, there were a few hiccups with service that could be improved upon.

I had a memorable experience during my stay; the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, going above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our visit. The gardens and pool area were beautiful, and the access to the private beach was a dream come true. However, the dining options were a bit repetitive, and some cleanliness issues in the rooms made it hard to fully enjoy the stay.

My stay at this resort was a mix of positive and average experiences. The beautiful sea-facing room and private beach were definitely highlights, creating a fantastic atmosphere. The staff were friendly, particularly Nikita at the front desk who always had a smile. However, I found the dining experience to be a bit lackluster, as the food did not quite meet expectations. Overall, it's a nice place, but not particularly distinctive among other resorts in Goa.

I had an incredible time at Cidade De Goa! The beach was just a stone's throw away, and I was treated like royalty for my spouse's birthday. The staff went above and beyond, even organizing a special celebration for us. The in-room service was responsive, especially for baby food. However, I noted that the hotel could consider replacing the water bottles used throughout. Overall, it was a fantastic stay, and I can't wait to return after renovations.
