Sea View Resort | Hotel in Palolem, Goa

“Behaviour was not good ”

“The owners attitude was appalling.Lack of communication before arrival. room very basic and dirty had ants and cockroaches Tv didnt work .Swimming pool was ok.although none of the fountains worked.The only thing that we really liked was the staff at the restaurant which wasnt run by the hotel its self The boys were lovely and friendly and great food.The owner seemed disinterested and was grumpy.”

“Frindly family run hotel perfect location for the beach. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Onsite restaurant run by a Debar lovely guy and very accomodating. Patenom is not as busy as its neighbouring resort Palolem beach, which is only a 5 minute taxi ride away with its many restaurants if you fancy something different of an evening . All in all a very enjoyable stay and would recommend this hotel ”

“Lovely Hotel the staff are very helpful , great value for money , restaurant also good for evening meals ,”

“We arrived at the hotel and was very pleased at first sight but was very very pleased when in the morning we had a chance to look around it was great we stayed in the executive room overlooking the pool we found the staff very pleasant especially our room cleaner thank you, .We would like to stay there again sometime The bar and eating area could do with having a makeover we found that it was not appealing to us so come on The Seaveiw Hotel get this sorted and get more people to eat and be comfortable in this area . ”

“I am a solo male Canadian backpacker who was on a two month trip around India and Sri Lanka. This was a last minute internet find at the very end of the high season. I went to Goa because it was the end point of a train trip I wanted to take and because after the heat of Rajasthan and Gujarat I just wanted to jump in the warm sea. The manager was kind enough to come and pick me up at the Magdaon railway station at night - no small feat! At the end of the stay he also drove me to the Goa International Airport very early in the morning. The resort is a group of low rise residential buildings surrounded by greenery like coconut trees and with gated security. The room was relatively clean. Its electricity cut out quite frequently. Although it's only about five hundred meters from the beach, it was sort of a drag to have to walk there for each meal because the resort did not really provide meals in the low season. The beach restaurants were fun, inexpensive and with good food. The manager helped me with going to see Galigbag or Turtle Beach some eight kilometers away. There was decent laundry service. This was my first time using Expedia to book and I didn't remember whether I had paid for everything online with the result that I paid online for the basic rate and then paid the manager in cash for what was supposed to be extras like air conditioning and driving. Lesson learned: keep note of transactions when there's a middle person like Expedia.”

“We wanted a nice, quiet place located close to Palolem beach that would fit our budget. Seaview Resort fit that bill perfectly. You may not be able to walk right to Palolem from here, but Patnem beach is connected to the resort and is quite a pretty sight as well. And our host Edmond rented us one of his bikes which made life really easy for us! The hotel is pretty, the rooms clean and comfortable and amongst the cleanest you will find. The location is the right mix of quiet, and well-connected. An ATM, and a market (Chowdi) are at a short distance from the hotel and the area is well lit and safe even in the late hours of the night. Palolem beach is a delight for foodies, and if you want some real quiet time, try Agonda beach which is about an hour's ride from the hotel!”

“Really nice location. clean towels and sheets(cotton and fresh) offered every 3 days.Staff were friendly. Bathroom was nicely set out and clean. Would definetly go back again.”

“By far the best hotel in Patnem or Palolem for genuine "Exotic Marigold Hotel" ambience and location. There are plenty of co-co huts and tents closer to the beach but if you don't like sand in your bed or mosquito nets then this is the place to stay. The Raja's Roost restaurant is the best in Patnem and they will get you anything you want if you tell Raja the day before. Don't go there expecting a Travelodge or a Premiere Inn. This is India...get used to it! The Manager Eddie has to cope with alot of (mainly British) moaning minnies...but if you treat him with respect, avoid threatening him with trip advisor and tell him what you need/want you will reap the reward many times over. Best value for money hotel on my 4 week stay in Kerala and Goa. NB Hot water is solar heated and is available in abundance at Sunset and early evening. By morning I recommend an early morning swim in the 'oggin...as I said...this is India...get used to it!”

“Location is just 200 meters to Patnem Beach - lovely. Quiet, laid-back area. Room was comfortable and clean. Had hot water daily. Restaurant is attached to hotel but we did not eat there. Wi-fi is a minimal charge. Enjoyed our stay there.”
