Nanu Beach Resort & Spa, Betalbatim

great!

The resort is beautiful. Clean rooms and clean swimming pool. Located very close to the beach like 2 minutes walking. The breakfast is average, and the majority of food is indian which leaves a small choice for foreigners. It would have been much better if they include more international dishes. It was a pleasant stay. The employees at the reception are friendly. They greated us at first with a juice when we first reached the resort and helped us as well with the luggage.

We stayed for 3 nights as part of a trip ***** the coast of Goa. We booked directly with the hotel, paid on arrival. When we arrived, a wedding was taking place, the entrance was all decorated and had drummers and singers outside! Check-in was very efficient, if noisy, due to lots of people arriving for the wedding. We were taken to our room in a buggy. The room, unbeknown to us, was a duplex, so living area and bathroom on ground floor, bedroom, bathroom and balcony on 1st floor. I'm not keen on stairs but it was ok. We were in 546, and it is the first room at the entrance to the complex and overlooks the main hotel entrance. This is also where the staff park their scooters and where all vehicles enter and leave the complex. At times, it was quite noisy; especially when staff finished work at 1am and arrived for work at 4am! The room was perfectly fine for our 3 nights. It did need nets at the windows as given its location, you had to keep the curtains closed all the time for privacy. The upstairs bathroom also needed a blind at the window or on the glass door to keep the early mor light out! The fridges were excellent as was the AC's and showers and the bed was very comfortable! I think we were given 6 litres of water every day by housekeeping! There are 2 pools, we only used the one near our room, it was lovely! Clean and a nice temperature. Access was a challenge as there was only 1 set of steps, and these were quite deep, I had to sit on the side of the pool and slide in, not ideal. The hotel grounds are lovely, and on the whole, the Nanu complex looks very nice. I imagine some villas are rented via the likes of Air b&b. We had a drink one night in the bar, mostly to enjoy the wedding, service was friendly and prices as expected from a hotel. We had breakfast once, and it was excellent. Egg chef, dosa chef, fruits, cereals, and lots of really tasty Indian foods. I would definitely recommend this hotel and would stay again. We also had a massage in the spa. It wasn't the best. To be honest, I wouldn't go back to the Spa.
