We have just returned from a three week stay here at the Santana beach resort and would say it is exceptionally good. The room we had was a standard 515 which included a separate kitchen and bathroom area more a small apartment than a room. It was clean and spacious and everything we needed for our stay, the bed was comfy which is always bonus. The boys who cleaned our room were thorough and consistent, we were provided with everything we needed daily and also presented with some really beautiful towel art daily. Thank you Akash and your team ( sorry I don’t know all your names ) you all made our stay very comfortable. The grounds are excellent they are constantly being maintained and kept clean and are actually very beautiful. There was an amazing nativity scene created for the Christmas period which was added to every day it was truly beautiful ***** with all the lights and decorations in the hotel. The pool is small but welcoming and AJ who runs the pool bar has the most amazing smile and such a good sense of humour it’s nice just to sit there in his company. We had breakfast every morning there is a great selection of Indian foods, cereals, fresh fruit and eggs and toast amongst other things, we were met every morning by Sunil and his welcoming smile thank you all who work in the mornings for breakfast you remembered all our preferences from the beginning and didn’t let us down once, we really appreciated the attention to detail and your amazing service. The food here is really good we had the very best Goa sausage pilau ever it was delicious the bet we have tasted in Goa. Thank you to all the staff at the Santana you truly make the resort one of the very best we have stayed at and would love to return one day.

Great hotel. Very clean. Room really nice and private. Staff really friendly. I would recommend this hotel. Breakfast was a nice selection. Nothing negative to say. Would stay again. I thought it was good value for money. Hotel is away from the busy road an you can get to the beach through the hotel grounds.

Santana Beach Resort is situated in Candolim, a popular area in North Goa. It enjoys a prime location, being just a few steps away from the beautiful Candolim Beach. The staff at Santana Beach Resort are known for their warm hospitality and attentiveness. I made all my booking through Trevor. He guided me well about the rooms n done tbe entite process.Guests frequently praise the friendly and helpful nature of the staff, who go out of their way to ensure a pleasant stay. Ajay ( the bartender) at the pool made our pool experience unforgettable with his most unique n refreshing drinks...The check-in and check-out processes are smooth and efficient, contributing to a hassle-free experience. Olegario’s restaurant provides a delightful dining experience with a range of culinary options. The seafood, in particular, is highly recommended, reflecting the fresh and vibrant flavors of Goan cuisine Santana Beach Resort is a highly recommended choice for travelers seeking a comfortable and relaxing stay in Goa

Stayed there with family in the suite from 21st October to 27th October. This is really a hidden gem in Candolim. The rooms are clean and spacious. Recently renovated, provides a great vibe. The private access to the beach, sunken pool, live music, authentic Goan dish in Calamiri provides a great mood for a relaxing vacation. The staffs (room service, pool side, restaurant and reception) and service were excellent. On the first day, one of the AC was not working and was attended immediately and smoothly. The staffs also helped in providing an accommodation for the driver outside the resort. This is my 5th visit here and everything is great as usual. Would be visiting this well maintained, polite staffs, kids friendly, vibrant property more often.

Santana Beach Resort in Candolim really feels like a hidden gem! We’ve stayed here twice—first in May 2024 and then back again in November 2024—and both visits were fantastic. Its location is perfect, with the beach just a short stroll through the property. The rooms are spacious, cozy, and well-kept, making it the perfect spot to unwind. Property is well maintained . We also loved the pools, which were always clean and kids friendly.. The staff truly made our stay special, all especially Trevor, who went out of his way to help us with anything we needed. And we can’t forget the food—authentic Goan dishes that were simply delicious especially at Calamari, where the vibe was just right. Looking forward to being back in the near future!

A very warm welcome at reception who were excellent throughout our stay and helped with sound advice Our luggage carried straight to our room which although quite basic did have a fridge and kitchen area It was spotlessly clean and comfortable with a nice balcony looking over the trees The breakfast was really good ,choice , quality and service Thoroughly enjoyed dinner in reception and because of storms we ordered room service twice which was equally as good and no greater cost A very nice pool area with the pool attendants quick to help Special mention to Ajay and his guys at Splash pool bar Would definitely return if back in Goa Thanks to all for a great holiday

A second time visitor to Santana Beach resort. The experience was as wonderful as the first time we visited (10 years apart). Was a special occasion as this was our kid's first visit to the beach city of Goa. The best part of the resort was the quick beach accessibility- the beach was so clean and away from all the hustle and bustle which you usually will find in the month of December in Goa We stayed for 3 nights- Breakfast was a wonderful spread The rooms were cleaned daily (needed on account of the multiple beach visits) There is good walking space in and around the resort. Its right in the middle of Candolim with easy accessibility for restaurants/rent a bike. We will surely visit again!

Our stay at Santana Beach Resort was excellent! Trevor was extremely helpful and thoughtful from the very beginning of our booking till we left the resort giving us tips of all the lovely restaurants close by and on the very first day of our arrival, informing us about the band playing at the resort!! We danced till we dropped that night with the lovely music! Basant at the restaurant was tremendous and also very helpful and kind! Ronny too at the restaurant was incredible! Overall a wonderful stay with very clean rooms and the garden was immaculate! Thank you all for making our stay memorable!
