After undergoing extensive renovations 3 years ago, the Fort Aguada Beach Resort offers some of the most luxurious accommodation in North Goa. Set in an unrivalled location, in an elevated position on top of the 16th century Portuguese old fort, Fort Aguada, next to its sister hotel, the Taj Holiday Village, the view from the gardens is absolutely stunning, with miles of wide soft pink sand against a backdrop of swaying palms. The well established trees also attrach an amazing arravyof birdlife.

Most people love to sunbathe in the gardens where, due to the elevated position, there always seems to be a nice cooling breeze, although there are also sun beds on the beach for those who prefer to be where the action is. The three main restaurants, Il Camino for Italian cuisine, Morisco for seafood and Sea Shell for International and Indian cuisine and the Martini Bar are all set around the swimming pool and all have spectacular views out over the beach. The open-air Fish Tail seasonal barbeque restaurant is set against the jutting Aguada headland and also has a superb view.

The sports complex offers badminton, tennis, table tennis, billiards, squash and a mini-golf course as well as fully equipped gymnasium and for the ultimate pampering the Taj Spa provides a full range of spa therapies. The hotel provides a full range of daily activities from basket-weaving and dance classes to cooking demonstrations and vegetable carving.

The air-conditioned superior garden view rooms are on the ground floor of the main building, have en-suite bathroom with bath and overhead shower, telephone, satellite TV, coffee making facilities, mini-bar, in-room safe and furnished terrace. 24-hour room service and laundry service are also available. Seaview rooms are on the first floor of the main building and do not have a balcony. The cottages are in units of 2 on the hill behind the main block. Accommodation is offered on bed and full buffet breakfast basis and Christmas and New Year festive meals are also included. Highly recommended.
