Ronil Goa, JdV by Hyatt

Very courteous and friendly staff. Great property with all the amenities. Loved our stay. Bar guy at front bar was awesome.

Room was awesome and staff was helpful.

A great resort, good food and drinks and helpful staff. The only drawback is the road outside which is super crowded in the evening. But a great place. Loved it

TLDR: GO! I originally booked the Taj in Candolim, which honestly left a lot to be desired. I stayed one night and immediately moved to the Hyatt and wow… what a difference. From the second I arrived, Along at the front desk and Nok at the lobby bar were super warm and welcoming. It set the tone for the whole stay. There are a ton of little touches that make this place feel special. Great poolside service, killer king prawns from the BBQ, and genuinely friendly staff everywhere you go. At night, the DJ and the fire pit by the pool were such a vibe. The location is perfect too. You’re super close to the chaos of Tito’s Lane, but once you’re inside the hotel it feels calm and relaxed. Best of both worlds. Also, the bar program is legit for a hotel. Actual craft cocktails, not just the usual watered-down classics you expect at a resort bar. I travel a lot for work and personal trips and I’m usually a Hilton guy, but this place seriously impressed me from start to finish. Shoutout to the team because the service really made the stay. Jeevan, Abhi, Nok, and Akash at the lobby bar were awesome (I definitely spent too much time there), and Sitanshu at the pool bar made bomb mojitos with a smile. Srilekha at the front desk was also super helpful and friendly. If you want something affordable, high quality, and right in the middle of everything, this is the move. I'm not sure when I'll be back in Goa but this will undoubtedly be my go to.
