Hotel Review of Soul Vacation
Comments: the thought 'goa' brings to me the promise of sea, sun, sand and seafood. no matter how many times done before, its always great to go again. similarly, we set out this time too on this long weekend of independence day hoping to live it up the beach bum way!
the hotel booked was 'soul vacation' and pictures on the website promised a gorgeous getaway. we got there and were immediately disappointed. the maintainance and upkeep of the place is very sadly lacking. everything looks old and splintered. however, we were going to let nothing get in our way and promptly hired bikes, wore shorts and headed out into the lushness that is goa during this season. we luckily missed the worst of the rain and though we did get wet in the occasional drizzle, we were glad for it. after all, who has the time to ever drive a bike through the rain along the sea and actually enjoy it. we got wet in the rain and then dried off in the wind.
goa is and always will be a prime destination though one needs to be careful in selecting the places to stay. hotels and tour operators often con you with promises and deliver not a fraction of that.
Best Experience: the saving grace of the hotel was its pool and the shower. and the fact that they have electric kettles that sometimes work.
Worst Experience: everything else about this place is at best, average to poor. this includes facilities, food, service, rooms, linen, front desk and anything else you would associate with a hotel.
the photographs on the website are misleading and they are not at all flexible to help customers with regard to anything. service moves at snails pace and there's no motivation to make it an enjoyable experience for their guests.

The ambience of the hotel especially in the evenings was really good with soft music at the back.The food at the restaurant was really good.One thing that seperates them from others is their staff.They are extremely energetic being young and very polite.It was a wonderfull experience staying there....

Hotel Review of Soul Vacation
Very nice place to stay, provided you don't settle for their deluxe rooms as these rooms don't have any view and are not that spacious. We had booked Deluxe room, but at the time of checkin got it upgraded to Luxury one. Overall stay was comfortable. The place was very clean and staff was very friendly. Food was great, but because of the off-season they didn't have many options available in the menu....
