Wild Berry Resort Agonda

If you’re looking for an apt location to stay at south Goa this is the ideal place as all beaches are close by. There’s a pub near by called leopard valley which plays Bollywood on Saturday nights. Coming to the hotel, rooms are large, well maintained and spacious. Even the bathrooms are so big that it also qualifies to be called a room with provision of Bathtub and large shower area. Room has TV, ample storage space, sitting area inside and outside the rooms. The rooms are made in Villa style with group of 2 rooms in each villa. There was a swimming pool which remains open till 10 pm in the night, however only 4 rooms were facing the pool, rest of the rooms are made at the fag end of the hotel. The hotel also had no recreational facilities apart from a pool tables which was kept in the restaurant. There was absolutely no staff deployed by the hotel for room service. The staff who was cleaning rooms was also bringing the food for us, none of them had uniforms apart from the reception staff and were roaming around in flip-flops. At one point of time when we asked for soap, the reception guy himself came to deliver as there was absolutely no one to deliver the requested items. The service was pathetic and everyone was lethargic in their approach. If you’re looking to roam around and only utilise the hotel to sleep, this is a good option. There was no buffet for breakfast, you can order from limited options from the A-la cart menu which they will prepare at the own sweet time. However if we take away the service part, the hotel seemed good considering the location, the peaceful and serene environment and the rooms.

It's a great place to stay and it has few wonderful beaches close by it... Staff is friendly and cooperative, Anand, Sandesh and all others were quite nice Rooms are great, restuarant is also good. Greenery all around the resort with clean and beautiful pool. Rooms other than pool view are better than pool view. The only con I felt was LED was not charged. Over all great experience and would love to repeat !!!

DONT GO IF ITS FOR THE BATHTUBS The hot water tanks are not strong enough to produce enough hot water to make a bath. Yet every room has a bathtub. I was provided with one Bucket of hot water. Which filled the bottom of the bath by 2 inches which is obv not enough for a bath. Why would you go to the extra expense of fitting a bathtub in every room and there are lots of rooms, but not go to the expense or trouble of finding out wether the hot water tanks can manage the water required for them! It’s insanity! Very few staff speak English and are poorly trained. Restaurant has barely nothing stocked which is on the menu. You order one item then they come back later to tell you it’s not possible. So you order a new item and the same things happens by which time an hour has gone by and you’ve not eaten. I asked for pancake one evening and was told it wasn’t possible as thts on the breakfast menu. Yet two nights later I asked for desert and none of the five deserts on the menu were available. So they called me back to ask if I wanted pancake at 9pm at night. Good to know when it suits them they can make pancake after breakfast and even in the evening! They demand payment in advance upon arrival which is just not normal practice and leaved a bad taste in the customers mouth right from the start in my opinion .Once I learnt that the bathtub didn’t work I would have left and cut me stay short by three days but I couldn’t do this as I knew it was highly unlikely I would get my money back and a waste of time and energy arguing with the poorly trained staff. Location is rubbish. It’s too far to get to agonda by walking and the road is dangerous by night by scooter. In the middle of nowhere , there is no other facility nearby other than the hotel. So your quite trapped there. Rooms look tired with peeling paint, chipped tiles. Stained bedlinen. Good things about the place; Beautiful gardens tht are well kept Big rooms AC works well They accept dogs If you don’t mind being stuck in the middle of nowhere , and a ten minute drive into agonda and a restaurant that’s rubbish , then go. And you don’t mind being falsely Advertised to about facilities that just don’t exist then be my guest and go and waste your money.
