Very good services

The hotel is located about 45 km from the Goa domestic airport, Dabolim at Candolim Beach. It is a beach resort with Candolim beach being just 2-3 minutes walk from the resort. The hotel is well-equiped with all modern amenities like swimming pool, spa, etc. The food is excellent and the ambience is beautiful. The cleanliness and services are of high quality. The evening performance by the poolside is amazing. The pick up from airport was arranged in Toyota Innova that took approx. 1 hour, which was a lovely drive. All in all this is a very nice property.

The resort was very good and we enjoyed a lot. We have taken a Delux Room during Valentine's Day and the hotel has arranged a pool side party and that was too good. The beach is just 2 minutes walk and that not much crowded and that too only foreign people. Overall worth for money.

The hotel was excellent in every department, be its food, services etc. I especially liked the performances by different artists, singers every night. Morning buffet was great. The only drawback I would say is a bit far from the main beach. Still would like to stay here if I go Goa again.

The property referred to us was really good, moreover what has been promised by Hotel Authorities in the package was delivered in the best way in a complete form. But one thing to mention is that as the room booked by us was Top of the class room of a Four Star property but the rooms were not up to that standard but still the overall experience at hotel was really awesome. The Hotel Staff was really cooperative and the facilities provided at the hotel was true luxurious and top of the class. The quality & presentation of the food was truly wonderful to activate any one's taste buds. The construction of the property was one of the best in terms of architecture and was well maintained. Whispering Palms really stood up to their name as the property was planted with no. of palm tree that and they use to whisper in the calm environment. One of the best things that we experienced was the lush green forest area that one has to cover while moving from Goa Airport to the hotel & it's mesmerizing.

Goa is a wonderful place for a holiday and Whispering Palms provided us with a lovely experience of the Goan hospitality. The services of the hotel were very good as was the up-keep of the hotel. The buffet meals had a lot of variety. The evenings by the pool with the entertainment made the scene lively and enjoyable. Had there been some group activities organised for children, that would have been ideal. Overall a welcome break.

Hotel was excellent. Whatever was described on the website was true. People were very friendly. Food was awesome and the location was excellent. Only thing it lagged was entertainment for kids. The hotel had pool, music at night, gymnasium etc. but there was nothing special for the recreation (lot of games, puzzles, etc) of kids, which I think can add lot of value for the hotel.

The location of the hotel is excellent. The food was superb. The facilities provided by the hotel were good. Since we were two ladies on a vacation, we felt safe since security was excellent. We had a great holiday.

It is the staff who truly reflect the warmth of a service industry like hotel. I give full points to the staff who served with smile and humility. Food was excellent. I need to change the room because it was quite stuffy due to moisture on the walls. Transport service was nice and on time. The hotel person waa waiting for us at the airport with our name displayed. The hotel provided live as well as DJ entertainment. We were quite at ease. One suggestion which I would like to make: the prices of laundary were very steep, Rs.150 for the one trouser etc. Because of sea and sand, you tend to wet so many clothes and hotel policy does not allow to hang clothes outside!

The hotel was neat & clean and comfortable. The meals were a mixture of Indian & Continental. The staff were polite and very helpful. The pool is excellent.

Overall resort is very good, clean and nice property. 1. We visited during last week of Sep 08. 2. My expectation was to have a resort on beach, expecting beach to be well maintained as I have seen earlier in Sri Lanka and Mauritius. But you find limited such resorts in Goa and that too very costly, more that 4000 per day. 3. Whispering Palms Beach Resort was located very close to Condolim beach in comparison to other resorts. It was very near to Fort Aquada and Calangute, main places to visit. 4. It is not good for people who prefer to walk to places like Calangute main market. But market can be reached easily (just 5 km) if you hire local vehicles like bikes, Activa, rented cars. 4. Normal restaurants, general shops are very nearby. 5. Hotel staff was well in time for pick up and drop to airport and even for half day sightseeing tour as was in my package. 6. I would suggest hotel package should include Jacuzzi also. 7. We got resort at nominal price through MakeMyTrip and for us it was really value for money.

I wanted to have a good vacation with least botherations this time. Although we had booked the hotel well in advance, I looked through the hotel reviews only a few days before our vacation. After reading the reviews, I had lot of apprehensions and worries regarding the quality of the stay in store for us. Very soon, I realised that I could keep away all my apprehensions away and enjoy my holiday. We were picked from the station very promptly and dropped at the hotel. The rooms as specified were ready for us. All inclusions as promised were met. Room service was excellent although a little expensive. Food was very good. Resort ambience and atmosphere was excellent. There is total privacy for each of the rooms (Deluxe rooms). The beach nearby (Candolim Beach) was not very good to have fun...except for some quiet moments if anyone wishes to have. Overall...the stay was excellent at Whispering Palms Beach Resort.

My second stay at the hotel. It is very clean, the rooms are spacious and bright. The room service is prompt and the breakfast sumptious. Courteous staff and a good pool/ Jacuzzi completes the picture.
Submitted by Raja Saravanan
The hotel is very well situated close to many beaches in North Goa. This is not a 4 star but a good enough stay that would make your experience pleasant. They had a very good spread of food. If you are a vegetarian you would enjoy the food as there are a lot of options. The pick up from airport was on time. They also allowed me extend the check out time by an hour.
Submitted by Dilip
We were greeted by friendly staff and throughout the stay they took utmost care of our needs. They did not have the fake accents and artificial scripted speeches. The rooms were clean as per schedule. A special mention to the sightseeing trip that was arranged. The trip was well-organised and adhered to the time. The karaoke organised one evening was welcome by an interested audience. The buffet spreads laid both for breakfast and lunch were made in such a way that they catered to everybody's taste buds. Overall, great hospitality and a must come back place.

I liked the hotel very much. The food was fantastic, but I think it should expand the variety. I did not like the location as the beach near to that was not clean.
Submitted by Mahendra Pai
I have had a pleasant staya at the hotel, the staff was warm, they have complied willingly with our demands, the food was excellent, i have not seen so many varieties of veg food choices. I recommend this hotel for one and all who wish to stay in north goa.

Hotel was fine but was not at good location. There was no good markets nearby.

Goa... what a place.. we reached whispering palms after taking a cab from Mapusa and on first look the hotel seemed to be in between the average and the wow category. We gave our details and since we had early in the day (the checkin times are 1300) we had to wait for around an hour for a room to be alloted to us. (the hotel was sold out the previous days). As far the location is concerned the hotel is a three-four minutes walk from the beach. The hotel is well located between Fort Aguada and Calangute and is easily accessible to most parts of North goa and is about 13 km from Panaji. We had booked for the classic room, which is in the newer areas of the hotel. The classic rooms were clean and spacious. (I did have a chance to see the standard rooms, however they seemed a little cramped to me). None of the rooms from what I saw had a beach view, some of them have a view of the sea from a distance. The large rooms had all amenities including a garden facing balcony and a large couch in the room. The washroom was large and clean, the bath fittings needed a bit of plumbing. Would have liked to have hot water option available round the clock. We made good use of the pool and the Jacuzzi in the hotel. The hotel has a pool side restaurant and a bar and it is quite convenient to lounge around and relax. Wanting to try most of Goas cuisine we did not make full use of the resorts restaurants. The morning breakfasts were good and normal as far as breakfasts in hotel go. Live entertainment and buffet dinners is likeable for a day or so, however there is a lot more to explore in Goa than to hang out in the resort for your entire stay. The business end for visiting goa, the beach is walkable and quite convenient. The beach is the quiter one, where you can have a good time in the waters, the standards shacks and umbrellas around, though the huge washed out ship on the shore is an eyesore. Calangute is quite nearby for the water sports and other adventures. Overall the resort is a good VFM, convenient, has good standards and is doing great business mind you as it was packed for most of our stay.

The location of the hotel was decent. It is very near to the market place and lots of restaurants nearby. The room was not very spacious as they look on the website but were decent sized for the money we payed. Size of the swimming pool also was very small as compared to number of guests it could accommodate. Food that was served was decent quality. Staff was very hospitable. Overall it was good value for amount we paid for the package as a whole.

On arrival at the hotel I was a little disappointed as the photos on the website really made the place look a lot nicer than it is in reality. Although in saying this, the place was still quite lovely, with all of the facilities advertised being available. It was quite close to the beach, a 2 minute walk away, but itÂ’s not really a great place for swimming - particularly for those who aren't strong swimmers and I was a little disappointed there were no beachfront cafes/restaurants to eat at. Staff at the hotel were very helpful and they upgraded our room for us when requested with little fuss. A very good place for families with young children. I don't really recommend the half day tour though as it was really hot on the bus (non-AC) and packed in, and the sites we were taken to seemed fairly random and others just plain odd! The food on offer in the p was acceptable, although the buffet style offerings may not be good for all. All in all though, it was quite a reasonable place to stay.

The hotel was good and actually was as good as shown on the net in pictures (I had a bad experience before with a lot of diiference in net pictures & actual site). The hotel service was very efficient inspite of heavy rush. The people in hotel were polite. The food, especially the buffet spread was great. The swimmimg pool was smaller than as expected from net photos.

Well the resort should improve upon the food and add more variety to it.

Property is located 5 min away from Candolim beach. Resort is big and has all amenities you are looking for. Staff needs little bit more training in hospitality, remember it is not a 5 star so keep expectation little low and you won't be disappointed. Rest it's good value for money.
Submitted by Sandeep
The hotel was goood. Room was also clean and there was hot water throughout the day. Food was ok types as compared to its rate. But there are couple of local restaurants which can be visited. The hotel provides 24 hours service which is good. I needed a cup of milk for my kid at 3:00 am and the hotel did provide it. That made me and my kid happy :-) . Pool table is pretty much worn out. Beach is at a walking distance(but the beach is not good enough). Had a decent stay.

It was a good hotel, food was ok, location was very good. Hotel should look upon little more cleanliness, and it also needs renovation.
Submitted by Richard
The hotel was adequate and the room was basic. The MMT booking confirmation says that check out is 12, when it is actually 11. The result was I was made to feel like the staff was doing me a favor. If you want a sun bed you need to be up very early.
Submitted by Vidita
This is definitely not of 4star category. Washrooms need desperate renovation. Pool area is good, but rooms are too outdated in terms of ambience and facilities. I really get disappointed because of room and washroom conditions.

Hotel location and services provided are fine and beach was at just two minute walking distance and the services provided were also excellent.

The hotel was fine, food was fine. Air conditioner in the room was old and was making noises, the toiletteries in the washroom were minimum.
Submitted by Chetan
The hotel /service is good for 3star standards but the charges are of 4 star. It is not worth as a 4 star hotel. Sightseeing from hotel side is of poor quality. Food and location is good.
Submitted by Devayani
We were quite disappointed as the room given to us was not having the view which we were expecting. We had to ask for another room. Room was fine but was not in very good condition especially the bathroom. Also, some renovation work was going on which was quite disturbing. Overall, I didn't feel the value for the money we paid for this hotel. Almost everything was paid except swimming pool and Jacuzzi once.

First, its not at all on beach and so the name should be only WHISPERING PALMS HOTEL or RESORT. Rooms were not at all upto mark. ambience was pathetic. AC didnt work for all 3 days. gutter smell was coming in bathroom probably because of plumbing problem. hot water for bath sometimes came sometimes not. food was good.
Submitted by Vijay Maira
While we were there construction of new units was in progress. The area was not cordened off and one had to pass over rubble, open electric cables, loose tiles over the pathway. The way to the rooms was prone to accidents. Work was going on right through the day and night. It was difficult to sleep with the noise of stone / tile cutters and grinders. No helmets were provided to guests passing through the area under construction. We were asked to pay cash for some of the services or pay 5% extra towards credit card payment. There was hardly any Goan dish on the food menu. Quality of food was poor. Frankly, we were disappointed.
Submitted by Varadaraj
This is not a four star hotel by any standards. Horrible rooms with a disgusting smell and old and dirty washrooms. This hotel completely ruined my holiday and I would recommend not to choose this hotel.
