Not the best, not the worst
Pros:

The location. Our room did not have a functioning AC and when complained about it, staff did not make a fuss about changing rooms or bothering us into believing that AC still works.

Cons:

The property looks much newer in photos but it is not. It is worn down.

Water pressure in the bathroom was weak, hence the shower experience was poor. AC was not working in one of the room. Power cut in the night every 5 mins.

Too good
Pros:

Property is well located and very close from most of the places. Hotel is very aesthetic and clean. Rooms are huge especially the bath area. Food is too good even the breakfast was healthy and delicious . I liked the bakery section they serve one of the best cakes, must try any cheese cake. All the staff members are very helpful.

Cons:

Pool can be cleaned regularly as there was flies and some things from trees floating on the corners.

Lovely stay
Pros:

The café being open till 3 am was honestly a game-changer — after late-night drives or long beach evenings, we never had to scramble for food outside. Just came back, settled in under the fairy lights, and ordered dessert and coffee like it was the most normal thing in the world. That kind of unhurried, late-night vibe is something most hotels simply don't offer.

Amazing stay
Pros:

Honestly, the garden at The Tamarind was an unexpected highlight — mango and jackfruit trees, a charming little wishing well, and quiet pathways that make you forget you're at a hotel. It feels more like a cozy old Goan estate than any concrete resort. My morning walks around the property with a cup of coffee were something I genuinely looked forward to every single day — sometimes even more than heading to the beach.
