In need of maintenance
It seemed that this hotel may have just opened due to Covid. Property was not well kept. Grass needed to be mowed. They did not have food which was included in our reservation. They did manage to go and buy a few pieces of chapati.

Thank you Tennille and Cristian for staying with us. Due to the Covid situation, we have only opened one wing with ten rooms (mid november) with the area around now cleaned and trimmed. As explained to you in person, your reservation did not show breakfast included in it, hence the issue. Nonetheless we immediately agreed to provide you breakfast which you then asked us to adjust with lunch instead. We freshly prepared and packed the Aloo parathas for you as a takeaway as Mr Cristian informed at lunch that he wanted something very light and no gravy stuff. It was not bought. Secondly we gave you a late checkout without you even asking for it. Our staff did its best to ensure your stay was comfortable and it will be nice if this would have been mentioned as well. Thank you again and wish you a safe and pleasant trip ahead. Cheers

Nice 4-day stay
Very nice, quiet and comfortable property. All of the staff, from housekeeping to management were helpful and considerate. Nice restaurant with good variety of mostly Indian/Asian meals. Rooms were very clean and each has a private balcony. 15 minute walk to town or beach. I rented a scooter in town for rs 300/day and got around the area to see other beaches and nearby towns. I've stayed in lots of places is south Goa, and this is one of the nicest in this price range.

Peaceful tranquillity
From check in to check out well looked after by Antony the manager and Nadia and Nifa the two smiley girls at the desk.Was only going to stay for two days but their welcome made me decide to stay for two more days.The resort has a lovely peaceful setting the food is great and the pool spotlessly clean.Would recommend this place without a seconds thought.

Beautiful Gardens
We had a lovely time at the Carina. The staff were delightful, friendly and helpful. My room was spacious and had a balcony overlooking the gorgeous gardens. It was very quiet, as I think it was the beginning of the season, so I often had the pool to myself. I enjoyed the inventive shapes that the staff made out of the folded towels.
The gardens.

Stunning Gardens, tranquil location
Wonderful, colourful gardens. Excellent staff, nothing was too much trouble. The hotel within easy walking distance of the village with lots of restaurant options. Family run hotel, rather than impersonal chain.

Hotell i krise!!!!!
Første inntrykk - rolige og fine omgivelser, ikke for stort hotell-fuglesang om morgenen ,stille om natten!! Andre inntrykk-frokosten var fattig,veldig enkel ! Rommet hadde bra størrelse ,men fasilitetene var dårlige, håndkle og sengetøy utslitt med flekker!!! Renhold hver annen dag -de folkene gjør så godt de kan, men utstyret er dårlig ,samme klut over hele etaten . Her er 35 rom !!! Fra baderommet kommer det sjenerende odør!!! Hele rørsystemet trenger ut spyling!!! Alt dette som er nevnt viser at hotellet er overmodent for oppgradering!!! Resepsjonsansatte har vært samarbeidsvillige og villige til å løse de værste problemene ved vårt opphold her ved Carina Beach Resort !!! Hvis standard blir oppgradert vil vi kanskje komme igjen her !
