Reviews of the hotel Alila Diwa Goa 5 * (Alila Diwa Goa) South Goa India

We love GOA, we love to stay in Alila Diwa, having arrived for the fourth time, we were so disappointed that we don’t want to come again. We arrived early in the morning, we were brought to the hotel and then it began. Chadwick and Kasuga were on duty at the reception, I have never met such a disgusting attitude in any hotel. Kasuga was very arrogant and didn't want to talk to us at all. She categorically did not want to check us in earlier, although the hotel had free rooms, we wanted to pay extra, there was none. At the same time, no one offered us, as in previous times, neither to go to have breakfast, nor to wait for check-in near the pool, nor the Wi-Fi password, nothing at all. Several times she came to the reception and asked us to check in, because. I felt very bad after the flight. The last time, this person just threw m...

4 days passed like 10. Lovely hotel. Beautiful rooms, excellent cuisine.

After a tiring flight, a surprise awaited in the room - a bath filled with rose petals.

Food. I never thought that Indian cuisine could be so varied and delicious.

The hotel staff is impeccable. There is nothing to add.

Despite the fact that the hotel does not have its own beach, we did not experience any discomfort. Relax and enjoy by the pool.

The spa deserves a special mention. Beautifully decorated rooms, relaxation areas after spa treatments.

I want to come back here again and again

Check-in: immediately upon arrival, early in the morning. It was autumn, by the way, after a night flight. In correspondence, the Hotel said that early check in is a matter of avalibility, but
Number. We had room w251, in the west building, at the very end, by the theater. On the one hand - well, far from everything, on the other - one evening in the theater there was a corporate event with a very loud sound.
Room: very pleasant. We had a terrace room on the 2nd floor. On the first floor, the terrace is larger and overlooks the lawn, but the second floor was quieter in terms of creeping reptiles. The room has a bath and shower. The wet area is separated by thin sliding doors: perhaps this may confuse someone. Great bed, two pillows. Coffee, tea, sugar, kettle. The minibar fridge gave out 15 degrees, not too cold. On the terrace there are two couches...

we were very pleased with the trip, the hotel, cuisine and service did not disappoint) a large and regularly cleaned room, a variety of breakfasts, the availability of shuttles ready to take you to the beach and back at any time, live music and cocktails in the bar after dinner) attentive and helpful staff

Everything was on the level, nice staff, clean rooms, albeit old ones.
There are decorative pools on the territory, they are practically unmarked, several have lighting, for 2 days of my stay two people fell into these pools. Be careful! The staff is friendly but very slow. You can drink drinks by the pool for 30 minutes. At check-out, we waited for luggage from the room for 46 minutes.

Good afternoon everyone! Rested with my wife from 21 to 29 December 2018. I think this hotel is the best in this area. Everything is very clean, tasty, beautiful, before that we were in many other countries, this hotel is in the top 3 of our visits. As for the staff: all employees are responsive, and always ready to come to the soak. There was such a situation, we went on an excursion, we forgot both phones in the car, there is a Russian-speaking girl Cindy in the hotel, she helped us a lot during the whole holiday, helped to rescue our phones, entering into disputes with the taxi driver, who delayed the return of the phone for more than 4 hours, with whom the phones were transferred, many thanks to her, such kind and sympathetic people on vacation have not yet been met. Thanks again! The beach in this place is the best in Goa, I advise everyone! I am attaching photos from the women's blog ...

For a long time I could not decide on a trip to India, having seen enough of various programs. But here it is. I stayed with my wife at the Alila Diwa hotel. The hotel is wonderful! Purity! Cleaning and linen change daily. Every evening a compliment from the hotel - fruits and sweets. A trifle, but nice. Moreover, no fuss, carts in the hallway with dirty laundry, as is usually the case. The staff is very pleasant, smiling. It was very nice that we were settled immediately, even though we arrived at 5 am. It's good that the hotel has a Russian-speaking administrator Cindy. Many thanks to her for her advice and recommendations on many issues. The hotel is excellent. Vacation was a success.

South Goa. Beautiful grounds, wonderful rooms, cool balcony-terrace. Caring staff! I especially want to mention Cindy, our guardian angel, who helped us in everything! Thanks a lot! The breakfasts are delicious, I really liked the system when you order an omelet and do not wait for it, but simply call the table number and they bring it to you when it is ready.
There are almost no shops near the hotel, we took a taxi and went to a small supermarket 7-10 minutes away. Beach. The beach itself and the sea are clean, but the cafes around (necks where you can take a sunbed and not pay for it if you order something) are average. The food there is tasty and inexpensive, but the sunbeds and tables themselves are far from 5 *. Very annoying sellers of all sorts of nonsense. So tired of them that the last 2 days stayed in a hotel near the pool. If we talk in general about Goa, then soon ...

The hotel is great! Very beautiful. The breakfasts are very decent.
The minus is the companies of guests from India entering every Friday. They don't behave modestly, to put it mildly). Very noisy all night long! A huge plus is the Russian-speaking manager at the Silvia Hotel, he is a very caring person who cares about Russian tourists! On call 24 hours a day. We were behind her like behind a stone back! Sylvia, thank you

Rested with my husband in November 2018. Quiet calm hotel for relaxation, without parties and discos. We had breakfast at the hotel, everything is very tasty, clean, a large selection of European and local dishes. The sea is not far away, you can ride a shuttle, we liked to walk along the road to the beach, they perceived it as exercise, the sea is clean on the beach cafe, umbrellas are not hotel, but all the amenities are there. Recommended hotel for a relaxing holiday

We have been staying at this hotel for several years and always at the same time. Despite the remoteness from the sea, civilization in the form of shops, we were satisfied, first of all, with the service and the wonderful attitude towards the residents from the administration and employees, alas, this is all in the past. You can, of course, in a 5-star hotel not pay attention to the fact that in the bottles with the inscriptions Shower Gel, Shampoo, Conditioner, the same kind of liquid was poured - well, employees joked, it happens ... Mosquitoes are poisoned not at night, but in the evenings when they accumulate living who are forced to run through a dense veil of an unknown chemical - this is probably also funny to watch from the outside. But the fact that they did not consider it necessary to congratulate their regular client on their birthday, which they did repeatedly before this year - ...

We rested with my wife and a child for 3 years, lived in the main building in a standard room, the child was brought a crib, the room has everything you need, the breakfasts are just wonderful, there is absolutely everything you need and even more. There is a free shuttle to the beach, we have never waited more than 2-3 minutes, it is also 2 minutes to go. There are two necks on the beach, prices and quality of food are about the same, you can bargain. The beach is of course super, but we were in India for the third time, before that we were even further south on Benaulim, the beaches are very similar, there are only much more shakes on Benaulim. If you leave the hotel, then there will also be two cafes opposite, both quite decent, there are dishes of Russian cuisine. I definitely recommend the hotel, but it has become much more expensive.

Wonderful hotel As soon as you get to the territory of the hotel, you understand that the rest will be wonderful. Beautiful, well-groomed hotel, all surrounded by greenery. Terrace rooms are great. You go out onto the terrace and you immediately find yourself in paradise. The pool is very beautiful. The hotel staff is friendly. All our problems were immediately solved by Cindy. We forgot half of the things near the pool. They remembered about them after 2 days)))) they brought everything, saved it. That. That the hotel is not on the 1st line is not a problem at all. More than 3-5 minutes we did not wait for the car to the beach. . On the beach, a shake - "our Masha" - sincere guys: they will feed you very, very tasty and lovers of chatting. They know several languages ​​very well and, therefore, they have their own approach to all. The only downside is that there were very noisy neighbors in the hotel. Went out n...

were at the hotel from 8 to 18 November 2018. We are very satisfied with the food, comfortable rooms, the staff is attentive, quickly respond to requests, polite and smiling. I especially liked Sindija Pinhero, the hotel's Russian guide. Attentive, surprisingly sensitive to every tourist, She told us a lot of interesting things about India, traditions, people, You will not meet such an intelligent guide in every hotel, I wish the hotel prosperity!!! Sindija, we hope that next time you will meet us!!! We will come here for the sixth time!! Thank you

Good day to all In fact, we just booked this hotel, according to our friends it is a very good hotel, there is a shopping street, restaurants, aurveda. In the past, we rested them at the Hollywood Hotel near Colva, there was absolutely nothing there. The hotel is far from entertainment. We eat for service, we want to try something new that the hotel has to offer. Reading the reviews did not disappoint, apparently there is something to offer. I'm waiting for a big plate of shrimp, sea bass)). What I like about Goa in general is good food, different European, Indian. And not far from the hotel they say there are two access to the beach. The beach is not a seal, which is a very big plus. We don’t eat in shek, and this time we chose the hotel based on the walking distance of a restaurant and small cafes, including a store. Everything is fresh and tasty and cheaper. Near the hotel there is a Tap...

really liked this hotel. beautiful, clean territory, polite staff, excellent rooms. there is not enough evening entertainment for guests - in the evening you can only sit in a good restaurant.

All liked it. We first checked into a nearby hotel. They could not stand the wretchedness and fled a day later to Alila Diva. Fortunately, the discount was 38%, since the beginning of the season, there are few tourists. Level 5+, the staff is super, they try very hard to be helpful and attentive. The area is a fairy tale compared to the rest of Goa. There is no direct access to the beach, so it turned out not to be needed when there is a beautiful pool. Although we went to the beach on a free shuttle in the morning. Back from the beach too - you tell the guard that you want to the Hotel, he calls the shuttle. I liked that the hotel does not need cash, you leave a deposit, then you cover all expenses with a card. We had an early flight and didn't have time to eat breakfast. They prepared lunch boxes for us, very tasty sandwiches, juice, fruit, water. We are satisfied! The hotel is wonderful!
Rented bikes...

An excellent hotel if you are looking for a quality relaxing holiday. Immediately I advise you to pay attention that the hotel is not on the first and not even on the second line. 3 line and public beach. The free shuttle from the hotel runs every 15-20 minutes. So getting there is not a problem. It takes about 5 minutes to drive. You can walk for 10-15 minutes, a distance of about 500 m. But go or go through a dirty village. So such a walk will bring little pleasure, but if you look at the life of the locals, how they really live there, you can take a walk. But the smells can shock some. Immediately at the entrance to the sea where the shuttle stops for a few nis. With relatively cheap seafood and other food, but very annoying barkers. The first day or two it's annoying, and then you don't pay attention at all. There are also local shops on the beach...

We returned to Alila in August 2018, during the rainy season, it happened for work. But even this did not overshadow our vacation) We arrived at the hotel around 8 in the morning, we thought we would have to wait for the room until 14-15. But right after arrival we were settled! We are not the first time in this hotel, in the absence of free rooms (we had a standard room booked) and as regular customers we were offered the Alilu Club, of course we agreed:) There are several shops and cafes right next to the hotel, there is a small supermarket, very convenient. On the beach a few sheks, immediately at the exit to the sea. We usually had Alex Place (delicious food, calm atmosphere) and Mishmar Masha Cafe (quick, very high quality service, "they will get the moon from the sky" if necessary). They have never been poisoned, which they were glad about, after reading different ...

I visited this hotel thanks to an info tour organized by the travel agency where I worked. I have been to many 5* hotels but this one was special for me. We spent 2 nights in it. Territory, gorgeous pool, food, everything is in the best possible way. Even the fact that it wasn’t close to the sea didn’t change my attitude) a special buggy car took you to the sea, he also picked you up at a predetermined time.

The hotel is chic, the rooms are huge and modern, the staff tries hard, the hotel is beautiful, green, well maintained, clean. We had breakfast, which is normal. To go to the sea, but at the first request a car was supplied, in the second, the sea is gorgeous. Warm, clean, and the beach is so clean that I have not seen this even in Europe. Although everyone says that India is dirty. Yes, but not here! In short, we fell in love with this hotel irrevocably and at the end of the holiday (the last evening) we were in for an unpleasant surprise - the perfume that I bought in duty free was stolen from my room. It was very unpleasant. We reported to the reception, the head of the security service came, someone else, looked and left. In the morning, my husband asked the reception to invite the general manager of the hotel. The main manager of the hotel turned out to be an Englishman, we explained to him the g...

From mid-autumn, when the rainy season ends in India, last-minute tours to Goa become popular. To escape from the dank dampness of the middle latitudes and get from the gray landscapes into the world of the sun, tropical palms and the warm Arabian Sea - isn't that a dream? Goa is the only state in India where a touch of Portuguese and Christian culture is strong. This administrative unit also holds the palm in terms of the number of tourists received. Goa is divided into North and South. The border between them is rather conditional and runs along the Zuari River. With similar climatic characteristics and nature, rest in the North is radically different. This state was "discovered" by hippies in the seventies of the last century. Then rastamans and downshifters joined them. But all this informal audience from the beginning of the 2000s was pushed out from the south. Now only North Goa is left behind hippies and trance music fans. The southern territories have become a haven for wealthy European pensioners and those who love luxury holidays. In this article we will talk about one such hotel called Alila Diwa 5 *. We built the description of the rooms, infrastructure and the beach solely on the reviews of tourists.

Where is the hotel located

Naturally, we will talk about the hotel in South Goa. Many complain that there is no trace of the "real India" in this part of the state. Yes, outwardly they are not much different from Salou, Ibiza or Hawaii. But Alila Diwa 5 * is located in the resort of Majorda. This place is famous for its excellent (reviews say - the best in the state) thirty-kilometer sandy beach. The entire coast along it is built up with luxury hotels. So the guests of Plila Diva will not be surrounded by "poor neighbors." But it should be noted that the hotel is on the third lane. The notorious Majorda Beach is 600 meters away. But many tourists say that this is not a problem. After all, a free bus runs to the beach every fifteen minutes during the day. Since there are no slums that shock a European, you can travel safely and calmly. Majorda unites eleven resort villages - from Betalbatim to Velsao. There are excellent bus links between them. Nearby is the international airport of Goa - Dabolim. From the exit from the air harbor to the gates of the hotel, it will take about twenty minutes to go.

Territory and buildings

Already from the first minutes, travelers who are tired after a long flight from Moscow to Goa are surrounded by care. It seems as if you have crossed the gates of heaven. "Alila Diva 5 *" is part of the "Design Hotels" hotel chain, and therefore they pay great attention to the design of the territory. By the way, it is huge - forty-eight thousand square meters. The hotel was built in 2009. Now it is divided into two unequal halves. One big one is Alila Diwa 5*. The second, smaller one is called "Diva Club Wing". Tourists call this part of the hotel complex the “enclave of exclusivity”. The tropical garden is dominated by three dormitories built in neo-colonial style. These houses are low. One building is two-story, the rest are three-level. The buildings surprise with their original design: porticos and columns are everywhere. But on the territory of the hotel and in its rooms it is felt that you are in India. Asian and European motifs are intertwined in the design.

Hotel Alila Diwa 5 *: description of rooms

All guest rooms are equipped with spacious balconies or terraces. And this is a huge plus, because you can sunbathe without leaving the room. The most demanded category is the standard, which is called "terrace room" in the hotel. These rooms are located both on the ground floor and on the upper levels of the buildings. If you already choose a standard, then you should ask for the southern building - the reviews suggest. There, the view from the windows is more beautiful. There is also a loft room. These guest rooms are located in the attic and delight guests with beautiful wood finishes. These rooms have large private balconies. The Alila Suite is twice as spacious as the Terrace Room (88 versus 44 square meters). The room is designed for two guests. "Family Terrace Room" are located in the basement and have their own patio (patio). The pride of the hotel are family suites. Diva Club guests live in a separate building. This is a real island of luxury. This building also has a "room" and a "suite".

Room equipment

As can be seen from the reviews of tourists, all guest rooms in Alila Diwa 5 * are very beautifully and stylishly decorated. The design combines Indian motifs with modern European ones. The technical equipment of the rooms is impeccable. There is a TV with satellite channels, air conditioning, a mini-bar (its contents, except for drinking water, are paid), a telephone, a free safe. Wi-Fi is freely available in all rooms and at the reception. Tourists say that new furniture is installed in the rooms, there is even a desk. The bathroom makes a special impression. It is simply huge, beautifully designed, conducive to bath delights. Guests are provided not only with various hygiene items, but also bathrobes with slippers. The guests were also pleased with the sets for self-preparation of coffee and tea. The bags were replenished as they were used.

Nutrition

"BB" - this is how you can characterize the type of boutique hotel Alila Diwa Goa 5 *. This means that breakfast is included in the price. And in terms of nutrition, the guests of the Diva Club have a greater preference. They have their own restaurant, where breakfast lasts from early morning (the institution opens still dark) and actually until lunch. They serve a menu there. You can only visit this restaurant once a day. The guests of the "Terrace Room" eat in the buffet mode in "Vivo". On the territory of the hotel complex there is a luxurious a la carte restaurant "Spice Studio". They offer Indian cuisine. Not so generously spiced food is served in a small but cozy Breeze. In the hotel lobby there is a stylish Zee Edge bar with soft sofas and an extensive wine list. The hotel has an open area for organizing banquets and wedding feasts.

What tourists say about food

The guests of Alila Diwa Goa 5 * were satisfied with the breakfast. The food is very plentiful and varied. Reviews assure that breakfasts are quite suitable for baby food. There are muesli, milk, sausages. Lots of pastries and fruits. In recent years, the All Inclusive system has been introduced for Russian tourists. But this program is used only by those who are interested in "free" alcohol. As for food, there are a huge number of cafes around the hotel with huge portions and ridiculous prices. Reviews urge not to be afraid to visit local catering establishments. This is South Goa! You will not find any unsanitary conditions there, and the cuisine is simply wonderful. Many cafes have menus in Russian. Tourists say that the presence of an electric kettle with bags of drinks in the room is a big plus. Reviews advise dining on the beach. If you take something in such a restaurant, then sunbeds and an umbrella are free. Tourists recommended "Fishka" and "Martin".

Beach

Tourists really liked the warm and mostly calm Arabian Sea, on the coast of which the Alila Diwa 5 * hotel is located. The beach, however, is located six hundred meters from the hotel. But a free hotel bus runs to the section of the coast called "Sun Set" ("Sunset") from morning to evening at intervals of fifteen minutes. Sunset in the sea is very comfortable, smooth, which is good for bathing children. There are no stones and corals, you can do without beach shoes. The sandy coast is very long. All beaches in Goa are municipal. The owners of sunbeds and umbrellas are cafes and restaurants. The use of beach ammunition can be called conditionally free. You order food or drinks - and recline on a sun lounger under an umbrella. Although the beach is municipal, it is regularly cleaned. The coast can be reached on foot in seven minutes.

Pools

Almost all photos of the hotel taken by tourists show these reservoirs in one way or another. And there is a reason for this. Under the hot tropical sun, the water warms up so much that there is no need to swim to warm up. How about soaking in the water? There is nothing easier. The pool is equipped with shallow water, where sun loungers are installed. Only the head of a resting person rises above the surface. Diva Club guests have their own swimming pool. Other guests are not allowed to enter. But club VIP clients can use both reservoirs of the Alila Diwa 5 * hotel. A children's pool is also available. Surrounding these freshwater lagoons is a spacious sunbathing terrace. It is lined with sun loungers with mattresses and umbrellas.

Services at the hotel

What level of service does Alila Diwa 5 * meet guests? The infrastructure of the hotel is fully consistent with the declared status. Although reviews say that the star rating of hotels in India does not reflect the level of service in them. But "Alila Diva" belongs to the international network, and therefore they hold the bar high. Rooms are cleaned twice a day. In the evening, the maids beautifully spread the bed, close the curtains and light a candle in the bathroom. The latter, by the way, is located right in the bedroom. But with the help of a sliding wooden screen, it is easy to turn it into a separate room. Despite the fact that there are quite a few tourists from the Russian Federation in the hotel, a Russian-speaking employee works at the reception. You can park your car for free at the hotel.

Vacation with children

Of course, every tour operator will say that you should not go to India with a very small child. The flight Moscow - Goa will be too long, and the acclimatization of a small organism will be long. But if you start your journey from the eastern regions of Russia and plan a trip for at least ten days, then a vacation at Alila Diva 5 * promises to be wonderful. The hotel attracts families with children with its pricing policy: all kids who have not yet reached the age of five stay at the hotel for free. At your request, a baby cot will be placed in the room. The hotel offers professional babysitting services.

There is a cinema that can be visited by those who know English. There is a small library with beach reading, where you can find books in Russian. Of the paid services, most reviews recall yoga classes and a luxurious spa. In the last oasis of bathing pleasures, you can not only take a steam bath in the sauna and hammam, pamper yourself in the jacuzzi or relax under the fingers of a massage therapist, but also take a wellness course for cleaning your face, body, and all sorts of wellness treatments.
