But the staff were friendly, the place was kept clean, and the vegetarian restaurant had incredible food and service! ##### Luna Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### RICKY 8 Jan 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Overall Experience was not at all Good because first of all Check in was not at all smooth we have to wait for 30 Mins to get our rooms and after 30 mins i have got 1 Room and 1 room after 30 Mins and staff was not at all good and coperative and Later We have visited pool and the pool tiles were broken and we got injury as well. And Service is third class. Buttler comes after 30 Mins ice and glass comes after 30 mins and air conditioning, fridge is too old in the rooms. We have booked ultra luxury room but we are not at all satisfied as we have paid 15k approx and the room doesnt have a good views as well. The room approx cost 7.5k Max and breakfast got over 15 mins before and no hospitality nothing. I have stayed in more than 50 plus 5 star luxury properies i will never recommend you to stay here. Thanks ##### RICKY ### 8/10 Good #### Pudur 27 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Not elderly friendly bathrooms otherwise everything else is fine and a nice and clean beautiful resort they should not perfume the bath towels ##### Pudur Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Dirk 28 Nov 2021 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Not a 5 star The actual Resort Rio was booked by some football federation until the end of March 2022\. We had to stay a lower category property by paying the 5 star price. Food quality /taste is below subpar. We informed the hotel that we were celebrating our anniversary they said they will arrange some cake but they never did. This hotel may have seen nicer days when it was new, but now it’s more like a run down property. The tub was dirty and did not have hot water. Closets are old and rusty. The pool was not clean properly you can see the green stuff on the sides. Spa is not 5 star quality at all, it’s clean and the staff is friendly but untrained. The most positive side of this hotel is, nice big rooms and staff is very nice but this Rio delux property is not 5 star and more like a 3 star service. ##### Dirk Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2021 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Deepak 26 Nov 2021 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities TERRIBLE MANAGEMENT which doesn't listen to guest needs. Have converted into a bio-bubble. Refrain from staying here. ##### Deepak Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 3 Jul 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Everything about Resort Rio is attractive. Highlights were the huge swimming pool (which unfortunately we couldn't use due to Covid, however we did click loads of pictures around the entire property), the staff, the food and ambiance. Coming back here on every special occasion as the staff here makes it much much more special. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 28 Mar 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### My Favourite Resort in the World ! Amazing People Resort Rio: we love you ! Thank you very much for the most amazing stay and hospitality. Beautiful resort, superb facilities and our Rio Suite was simply palatial. We loved the space, the views and the most luxurious marble bathroom with a marble tub we have ever seen. We enjoyed and appreciated the very warm and genuine hospitality from all staff members. Vaman and Sumitra: thank you for the housekeeping. Shubham and Akash, we appreciate your friendly service from F&B. Thank you for the amazing food at Pickled Mango and at Jalsa, the pure veg restaurant. And what can we say about Aagor? Probably the most amazing place to be each night- a typical goan beach shack by the pool with its very own beach ! We loved Aagor so much that we spent most of our time there and you must try the fiery Feni ( nothing like the feni you would have tasted anywhere- they distil their own and its smoother than fine cognac.Thank you Roy and Agnelo for amazing cocktails. Zaara spa therapies were relaxing and we enjoyed the couple massage. What i loved about Zaara spa was the beauty and peace with fine aromas and soothing music as the masseurs gave the most relaxing massage ever followed by a rose petal bath, a relaxing steam and then rainwater shower. Both my wife and I came out of Zaara different people- pure bliss. Thank you Kazi and Mumtaz at Zaara spa. Thank you also to Stephen and his team at the front office for all the care that was taken.Fatty Francis, please keep our usual table reserved ! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 12 Mar 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Amazing resort and great hospitality ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vijay 12 Oct 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Perfect Couples Retreat Most amazing resort for a relaxing getaway. ##### Vijay Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Arun, Redmond, wa 17 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Enjoyed my stay at hotel! Food is delicious! Wanted to try jalsa but the hotel didnt had enough reservation for jalsa dining so the restaurant was closed. Thats the only thing was not satisfactory because i genuinely wanted to try jalsa because they have won award for 7 years. ##### Arun Stayed 1 night in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 11 Feb 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very clean and tidy through out the property , found the drinks very costly ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Tony, Washington, DC 30 Jan 2019 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service If you're from America do not stay here -This is not a 5 star hotel - It just has really nice decor -Staff is not trained well and many first line staff were interns that struggled to speak English - I have a team of over 300 staff in India and I know the difference and I am very forgiving on this matter. This staff was mostly comprised of those who are not up to par. -Wifi is a joke there. it was slower than dial up from the 90s Management said they would look into it but nothing changed. It was a total joke and probably purposely throttled. -There are two pool bars which got me excited but no one goes to them. Only twice there were two other people than me and my friend. Kinda kills the experience. This was during a time when they were fully booked. -Their food is pretty decent and really good if you like Indian food. Mama Mia is an Italian place with good food - They had several large events hosted by companies who were staying at the time and as a result would close some of their venues. I thought this was unfair to others. -They prohibit you from bringing your own alcohol -They prohibit you from having guests in your room -They accused me of trying to leave without paying even though I prepaid for this stay and I had a Credit Card on file for incidentals. This happened because I tried to have my bag loaded into my airport transport before checking out. This could've been avoided if I were allowed to check out from my side of the resort but that was not an option. ##### Tony Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 21 Dec 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities All good.

The hotel is remote and not in walking distance from the beach. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 9 nights in Nov 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### manga 6 Oct 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service #### Will not be back They charge way to much for food and drinks, plus to many rule to have to obey like ladies have to wear certain types of clothing in the pool, and you can not bring any item of food or drink back to the hotel or allow any visitor up to you room. The free wi fi is crap it is way way to slow as they want you to pay more for the better high speed package. Also the ratio of single man to families and couples is to high with these man just sit by the pool look at the ladies a bit creepy made my partner uncomfortable. WILL NOT BE BACK. ##### manga Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 20 Sept 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Goed Was schoon hotel personeel heel vriendelijk en goed ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Vicky 24 Aug 2018 #### bad experience water lickge in the room, it's gets wet whole floor while rain ##### Vicky Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 18 Aug 2018 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Location is not great and hotel is fairly dated.

We were restricted using many facilities due to events like Indian weddings. Staff was very uncooperative. manager was rude. We were over charged. Almost double than regular charges. Terrible, uneducated staff. They cared only for corporate and wedding events and their guests. We were robbed. It was day time robbery. I demand full refund what we paid. I will never recommend this hotel to any body. ##### AG Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### David 2 Feb 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Expensive to eat and drink Drinks and food far too expensive for Goa.
