The Taj Holiday Village Resort and Spa boasts a stunning location by the beach, which greatly enhances its charm, especially during the rainy season. The rooms are spacious and clean, but they do feel a bit dated and could use some renovations. While the property has excellent amenities for families, the service and dining experiences fell short of expectations, making it feel less like a luxury stay and more like a strain on the wallet.

While the property has great facilities, including a lovely pool area, it felt like there weren't enough loungers for the number of guests, which was frustrating at times.

I had a wonderful stay at this luxurious resort that truly embodies hospitality and comfort. The rooms were spacious and offered a beautiful partial sea view, making my mornings feel like a dream. The service was impressive, as the attentive staff went the extra mile to ensure everything was perfect. However, dining was a bit hit or miss; while I enjoyed some dishes, others didn't quite meet my expectations. Overall, it's a great place for relaxation, with a few aspects that could use improvement.

I had an incredible stay with wonderful staff who went above and beyond to make my birthday special. The location is perfect for families, but the privacy in the rooms could use improvement with better curtains. The dining options were quite good, though the overall experience could have been more consistent. The amenities are well-kept, but the spa facilities need some attention.

My stay at this resort was truly memorable. It's a beautiful property with lovely amenities, and the staff genuinely cares about the guests, making for a welcoming atmosphere. I did encounter a minor issue regarding preferential treatment for celebrity guests, but overall, the experience was delightful especially for families. The dining options could use a bit of improvement for variety, but everything else, from the activities for kids to the beautiful beach access was rewarding.
