10/10 Exceptional

Our stay at Nalanda Retreat was truly peaceful and relaxing. The Hillside Heritage rooms are spacious, clean, and beautifully designed with a warm natural touch. The rooms have comfortable beds, private balconies, and everything you need for a comfortable stay. It feels calm and quiet, surrounded by greenery — perfect for rest and reflection. The resort itself is very well maintained and has a beautiful energy. The staff are always kind, helpful, and ready to assist with a smile. The food is fresh, healthy, and delicious, with many options for all tastes. The yoga shalas, spa, and beachside restaurant make Nalanda a perfect place for both relaxation and rejuvenation. Everything is organized with care and attention. Overall, Nalanda Retreat offers a wonderful experience — peaceful, clean, and full of warmth. Highly recommended for anyone looking to relax, recharge, and enjoy a beautiful stay in Goa.
