De Alturas Resort Goa

We took the package of 4 days/ 3Nights. This hotel is Nice and comfortable to stay. Food is Good and comparatively less spicy. Our premium room was specious. Housekeeping service is up to the mark. I will recommend that go for fixed meals plan otherwise menu card charges is too high. WiFi service is not good. Room Mini bar is OK. Staff is cooperative and punctual in giving service.

Resort De Alturas is wonderful resort in Goa. The hotel is Good and rooms were very neat & cleaned. All Hotel staff was very co operative & friendly and helpful, I would like to thanks to all Staff Thanks- B L Surya

My first visit to Goa was an spontaneous holiday. Opted not to stay in a four-star hotel but to experience the country we travelled so far today. We stayed in a TUI “small and friendly hotel”. Positive’s Beautiful clean spacious bedrooms and cleaned daily. Staff professional, respectful and friendly. Very attentive in a positive way happy to help with any requirements you have. Our first morning we woke up late for breakfast. The manager kindly offered to make me coffee and toast which I thought was so kind. The cost of drink and food is cheap for English standards. And example cocktail was Rs.250 (£2.50), a sandwich or hot lunch £2.80, a pint was £1, soft drinks 50p. Location to the beach is 10 minutes walk and taxi’s outside if you want to use them. You need to haggle with everything over here. I managed to get a taxi for 200 Rupees but he asked for 400 originally. The shops along my street or a better option if you want to browse without being harassed and again haggle is the key to buying any products. Try not to bring in the big notes as they struggle to find the change. A lot of injuring people do not like giving change due to the currency.

Try not to bring in big notes as they struggle to find the change. A lot of Indian people do not like giving change due to the currency. Breakfast was pleasant but basic we had apple and orange juice, omelettes and request, lots of different curry dishes, spicy baked beans and toast. Negative’s Evening meals are traditional Indian dishes. What you would expect coming all the way to India. The food was beautiful, variety of dishes to try with Nan bread and rice. On some occasion they had a small pot of ice cream and that was the only desert available. No other meal choices apart from curry. There was soup available as a starter. After the second evening with a buffet style food we went out. The limited choose of main meal meant going out but that was a good thing. Food was cheap and delicious in Restaurants and would sudjust B &B basis. Food off the bar or lunch time menu was awful. Clearly locals have put English dishes but have never used or tasted them before. The pro cocktail prawns were solid, a chicken sandwich had hardly any chicken in it. Chicken Caesar salad was an experience. The Saturday market which is recommended to go and see wasn’t a pleasant one for a group. The intensity of stallholders harassing you to buy items prevented you from enjoying the experience and browsing at their beautiful items. With poverty everywhere it is very distressing and your advice is not to give any rupees as you’re hounded. I bought some nice handbags and spices. In hindsight I would’ve been enjoyed more shopping in the town rather than this market and would never go again. The porters in the airport were Hideous horrible creatures. As I walked into the airport with my party of five a gentleman in a yellow T-shirt and ID whipped my suitcase bag out of my hand and rushed me to a different part of the airport. I desperately chase this man demanded my case back and he was having none of it. I discovered he wanted rupees for the service of which I strongly said no. The queues in the airport are unbelievably long due to their security. I have a condition which means I can’t stand for a long time. Asking for any special assistance meant dealing with these supporters. One man Grabbed me and put me in a wheelchair and wheeled off leaving behind my group. It was very scary and demanded he wait for my family. We cut the que but again realised that “special assistance” comes at a price. If I’d know I’d paid as did shorten my time and would have given him £3 but it is frightening when your wiped away with no Explanation.
