Seashell Suites and Villas - Candolim Goa

Everything was great. They did a super cute set up for my husband’s birthday and the owner of the resort arranged a cake in the morning while everyone sang for my husband. It was a lovely surprise and made the entire stay even more special. There are 3 pools so we always had a pool to ourselves and the room was big, clean and cozy with a lovely balcony. Would stay here only every time. It’s also very close to the Candolim beach which was clean and nice.

Breakfast was skippable though we do like fancy breakfasts so we stepped out for that and parking was quite full so they gave us space right outside but these were not a big deal.

A Wonderful Stay at Seashell Suites We had an absolutely amazing stay at Seashell Suites, Goa. It truly felt like a second home—a place where you experience warmth, comfort and genuine hospitality. A special mention to the owner, Mr. Gonsalves, who personally greeted guests every morning at breakfast and took the time to ask if everything was comfortable or if there were any issues. That personal touch really made our stay special. The staff were wonderful, courteous and always helpful. The chef was extremely cooperative and even prepared Jain food for a few members of our group. All the food served was fresh, delicious and made with great care. The rooms are huge, spacious, spotlessly neat and very well maintained. The property itself is beautiful, the pool is lovely, and throughout our stay we honestly had absolutely no complaints. It was a long time since we stayed at a property that offered such genuine warmth and hospitality. Seashell Suites truly exceeded our expectations. A big thank you to Mr. Gonsalves and the entire team for making our Goa stay so memorable. Highly recommended!

Liked everything,5star property ,at 4 star price.

We absolutely loved our stay at Sea Shells Villas, Goa. The villas are beautiful and impeccably clean, but what truly made the experience special was the staff. I’ve stayed at many hotels over the years, and I can honestly say the hospitality here was exceptional. Every member of the team was warm, attentive, and always ready to help. The breakfast was another highlight—an excellent spread with something different each day, plus a live counter that made every morning enjoyable. A big thank you to the entire team for making our family stay so memorable. We can’t wait to be back!

Excellent staff. Owner of the property is very polite and thoughtful and happily arranged complimentary items for us.

הכל !!! יחס מדהים, חדרים נקיים, אוכל טעים והיחס של הצוות מעל ומעבר לכל עבר

The location is very close to the main road. Multiple options for dining. Everything in the hotel is maintained exceptionally well. The staff & services are excellent.

everything! the room was flawless and the staff were so friendly, really made the trip!

nothing at all

We stayed at this, home away from home, during first week of May, 2026. It is a very well maintained place, facilities are excellent. The breakfast buffet is lavish and delicious. The one thing that stands out is the people managing this place. Everyone is so helpful and pleasant to meet. The vibe is so friendly. The owner, Mr Shelly, personally talks to everyone during the breakfast time and ensures that everything is in order. I think that personal touch goes a long way in making the guests comfortable. Great work all of you guys.

One thing that I think can be improved is the timings of swimming pool. 7pm close is too early, especially in this hot weather. I would have preferred 10pm.

Pokój, otoczenie, baseny, obsługa, właściciel. Wszystko!!!

Seashells Suites & Villas was an amazing part of our trip to India. We stayed for 5 nights whilst visiting Goa and the owner Mr Shelly's 'angels' (his staff!) were incredibly attentive and super friendly. Breakfast had a great buffet with pastries, fruit, western breakfast foods and a good assortment of Indian breakfast foods to try (chole bhature was our favourite!) You could ask for made-to-order pancakes, french toast, dosa and eggs. Shelly and his staff all came round during breakfast to say hello and made us feel so welcome. We had the junior suite - it was excellent - super clean and amazing aircon! It was great having the three pools, felt like there were lots of options of where to sit and the pool bar was good for lunch and a cocktail. The roof terrace is amazing for the sunset too - you can watch the sun go straight into the ocean. Honestly not a bad thing to say.

Nothing!

An absolutely flawless stay! From the moment we arrived, the staff and owners went above and beyond, making us feel truly welcomed. My suite was incredible, spotless, spacious, 2 bathrooms and a balcony overlooking the swimming pool. The attention to detail was unmatched. Dining at the hotel Sky Bar was a highlight, offering delicious food and the buffet breakfast was outstanding. The atmosphere is so special that it really felt like home to me. All respect to the owners Mr Shelly Gonsalves and his son, who do a great job running this boutique hotel; a true sample of excellent hospitality! A special thanks to Nitin, the Head Chef and to Kim our waitress to name but a few.

Nothing!

Solo retired female traveler- I stayed in a ground floor suite with pool access and it was wonderful, the rooms are larger than average, I stayed in April for 8 nights when the season was just ending so not overcrowded, The staff were so helpful at all times and always greeted with a smile, The property was spotlessly clean, I felt totally safe at all times in the hotel and the local area I would highly recommend Seashell Suites to anyone thinking of staying in Candolim Goa

Guests covering the sun beds at the pool at 7.30am with towels to save their spot but then not actually coming to use them until the afternoon, Definitely no need for this! It would be nice if this was noted to be not allowed

We had such a wonderful stay here. The property is in a beautiful location with lovely gardens yet close to Candolim's local shops and restaurants. We stayed in a three-bedroom villa that was really spacious and very comfortable for us to spend time together. Breakfast was an enjoyable daily ritual with an excellent range of food including several items cooked to order. Indian breakfast foods were available as well as the more international options and my particular favourite was the special masala dosa which I had most mornings! My granddaughters really enjoyed the cereal and pancakes. The pools were clean and well maintained and never seemed to get too crowded.  All the staff were very kind and friendly and made us feel truly welcome, including my granddaughters who had great fun with the breakfast ladies and loved seeing them every day. The owners were also very kind and welcoming. All the reception staff were so helpful on many occasions - particular thanks to Anil for all his help.

There was nothing I did not like.

No praise is enough for this perhaps lesser known gem. A fortituous find, it takes hospitality to a new level altogether. Not surprising, considering the super gracious host, Shelly who makes it a point to feel you most wanted in a genuine way, every single day of your stay. No wonder, these values have rubbed off on his most wonderful team and staff. Our hotel room suite was grandly spacious almost an apartment with 2 bathrooms, unheard of anywhere!! 3 immaculate pools, a fresh sumptuous food spread for breakfast prepared with love, close proximity to the beach and top location, make staying here a no brainer even for those looking for longer stays and for families. Left here feeling only love and gratitude towards all the lovely people here. Thank you!!

Absolutely nothing.. just a minor issue of dodgy wifi that we experienced one day

A true hidden gem – exceeded my expectations! I were truly impressed by the dedication of the entire staff and the owner, who clearly go above and beyond for every single guest. It is rare to find such a high level of personalized service. I hope that i will find time in my future plans to come back. Thank you❣️

Everything .. the staff were the best ! The room Was spotless and beautiful. I would highly recommend this property . I would like to commend Kim snd Ittsm they were fantastic with us ..

Das Frühstück war gut. Das Essen im Restaurant hervorragend. Die Lage für uns perfekt alles in Laufnähe erreichbar.

An absolute amazing resort with great service very clean very friendly nothing is too much to ask of them ..would definitely recommend it and 100% will be coming back

Impossible to find fault

Every single aspect of this hotel, is excellent. We booked to go again whilst on holiday there, we liked it so much. Something we have never done before.

Everything! Was an absolutely wonderful stay.. huge rooms, the staff were the most invested, caring, friendly I have ever encountered in a hotel. Such a wonderful inclusive feeling while there.. manager/staff go all out to ensure you have a great stay! A wonderful testament to the owner, whom I also got the pleasure to meet, whose personal ethos’s reflect in each and every member of his ‘family of staff’. As that’s how the staff described what working there felt like.. Definitely one to come to again.. in-fact looking at booking for next year.. special thanks to Sylvia and Nibo (those cocktails were the best!) and Chef Nitin - with out a single doubt the absolute Best Food I had in Goa.. thank you all for a great stay!

Nothing!

All good

Non-availabulity of Earl Grey and infusion non-cafeinated teas Non-availavility of dried prunes, apricots, nuts and seeds

The hotel is absolutely fantastic 👌 the staff are really friendly, The owner also comes down to see everyone at breakfast which is a nice personal touch

Nothing not to like.

Outstanding food Top class chef

Going home

Peace and tranquility away from the bustle of the resort. Staff were amazing

Lack of sun loungers and usual selfish people getting up at 6;30 am to 'reserve their spot'

The standard of cleanliness is unrivalled in my opinion. We stay in hotels that are 5 star and above but this hotel was absolutely spotless including rooms pool areas and restaurants

It was a little ‘tight’ walking to the bar past he sunbed ( very minor complaint)but there is limited space around the pool so understandable . People put their towels on sunbeds very early in the morning then may not come out until 11am which is not fair ( peoples bad behaviour ) but otherwise there is nothing to be disappointed in this hotel the staff and facilities are exceptional

Beautifully maintained property with very courteous, helpful staff. Nice extra touches such as complimentary cake delivered to room, plus chocolates on departure. The large pool at end of site was a lovely temperature and I spent a lot of time in it. Owner and son very hands on, engaging with guests every day, ensuring all their needs were met. Overall a very hard resort to beat.

Only moan I have is breakfast arrangement, staff who took order for eggs, etc quite often seemed to forget order, also sometimes tea/coffee was only lukewarm, head waiter did resolve the problem, just for it to happen again next day. This is a minor issue, but frustrating when wanting to eat together.

Property & staff were excellent. Highly recommend this hotel to anyone. The food was great as well.

Immaculately clean and well furnished throughout. Excellent breakfast with wide range of Indian and European offerings. My only slight nibble was the fruit juice which was mostly canned and very sweet. Some freshly squeezed orage would have been good

Early morning reservation of sunbeds which were often not used until midday.

The staff were outstanding. The room and facilities in the room were outstanding. Dinner in the room was first class.

The owner was intrusive at breakfast each day. If you wanted peace you could not have this. It was a TUI holiday hotel had we known we would of booked elsewhere. If you wanted to swim which is why we booked the hotel this was only possible early am or later before closing as people were stood in the pool all day. Felt there could of been fresh jams, and more bread alternatives at breakfast.

Family run hotel who were involved with the guests on a daily basis. Staff were extremely friendly and would attend to every need

Only small comment there was no GF Beer…

From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty. The place is immaculate and the staff exceptional. Its the best service we have ever experieced. The breafast was lush and the sky bar was great. Loved every moment. We will defo be back

Nothing. It was fabulous

overall package fantastic. Staff could not do enough for us, Rooms very clean. The hotel grounds with the three pools very tidy and peaceful. Location central Candolim. We have already booked for a further stay in December. This is a five star hotel which I could recommend.

I find it very hard to think of anything I did not like,

Once you stay here you understand why it’s deservedly voted number one place to stay in Candolim. The hard working staff are a credit to the lovely owner, who gives you the personal touch. They look after you so well and at breakfast the choice of food and service is great. You barely have to lift a finger as they bring it to you. And fabulous dinner and service too at the top Sky Bar. Experienced a pre order of tiger prawns and white snapper fish which was delicious and super fresh. The beach wasn’t for me because the sea was a bit rough with strong waves and it was busy. But lots of places to get sunbeds, eat etc. They took the stress away from me when through them I ordered a taxi to take me south. I discovered that you can’t load a foreign card with money to the wallet on GoaMiles App. So am very greatful that they helped arrange my transfer. I should add that the bed was very comfortable. Also the larger back swimming pool did seem warmer than the other two. I had no problem getting a sunbed but was a solo guest. Many thanks to everyone for a wonderful peaceful and relaxing stay.

Nothing really although heating the swimming pools, even a little, really would make the place excellent

Personalul.

Camera este spațioasă ,dar are molblier cam demodat , patul și pernele nu sunt cele mai confortabile întâlnite în India

From start to finish our stay was fabulous. Well looked after by all staff, from helpful reception, catering at breakfast and room service. Everyone very friendly, polite and professional. My personal favourite was the exceptional cooking in the roof top restaurant.

nothing, I can't wait to rebook.

What a lovely place. An oasis in the middle of busy Candolim. It is peaceful, the staff is extremely nice and the large apartment is very comfortable. Would definitely recommend it to families.

Staff were amazing and took time out of their busy day to make my partner’s birthday special 🥰

Clean , spacious

Fantastic

Everything ran smoothly thanks to the staff, from quick check-ins to efficiently handling requests.

Downside: daytime construction noise, stopped at night.

The staff were exceptional, always friendly and helpful. The room was large and comfortable, always clean and cool. Bed and pillows were comfortable, and the water pressure was excellent. Love both the food and service at breakfast

The friendly staff

The calm atmosphere and the care the staff took of us

that was spacious and silent, surrounded by palm trees

Da simpatia de todos.

Gostei de tudo.

Huge and very comfortable rooms. Grounds & pool are lovely and staff could not so enough for you.

Spotlessly clean accommodation Wonderful staff Perfect spot

Not a thing it was lovely

Spacious rooms Fabulous staff Stocks replenished every day along with room cleaning. Great rooftop sunset view.

Если Вы хотите ощущать заботу постоянно - вам сюда) нас на завтраке спрашивали от младшего персонала до директора отеля «понравился ли вам омлет?», он же рекомендовал «кушать больше» 😀 очень, нет очень очень много заботы и желания, чтобы все было хорошо и нравилось гостям, иногда с перебором, но это местный колорит. Отель удобно расположен, если получится - выбирайте маленькие домики а не основное здание - они стоят подальше от дороги и там потише. 3 бассейна, на выбор. Удобные лежаки. Очень вкусно повар готовит рыбку. И попробуйте тигровые креветки с чесноком и лимоном. В целом, все очень хорошо, чисто, уютно и очень очень заботливо 😀

Все хорошо

Для Гоа просто превосходное состояние отеля. Сразу видно, что руководство и персонал прикладывают все усилия для поддержания высокого качества. Заходишь с улицы и оказываешься "в другом мире".

Everything ! We had a 3 day stay beginning of November at Seashell Suites which was wonderful we were even provided a packed lunch for the airport due traveling schedule . We would stay again without hesitation .

Nothing to dislike !

The incredibly friendly and helpful team, everybody is smiling at all levels up to the owner and son themselves, very forthcoming and informative. You really can discuss everything with them and this was quite interesting for us, first time visitors to India Special mentions to Kim and Meri and to the chief cook, this is certainly unfair to the rest but how to remember all the names? The breakfast is very good and the dinner is certainly worth trying. We also liked the large swimming pool and bar.

Nothing, 0%.

Die außergewöhnlich warmherzige und familiäre Atmosphäre vom Check-in bis zur Abreise hat den Aufenthalt zu einem besonderen Erlebnis gemacht. Das professionelle und herzliche Team, ob am Check-iin, beim Zimmer- und Poolservice oder im Restaurant war sehr wohltuend.

Very clean, excellent service, central location, good breakfast, spacious rooms in the villa with pool just outside. Couldn’t ask for more. Owner made us feel welcome each breakfast.

We liked everything.

Our stay at Seashell Suites and Villas was absolutely incredible from start to finish! Everything was perfectly organized — starting with the detailed guidelines on how to get to the hotel, to arranging a reliable driver and a smooth check-in experience with a refreshing welcome mango juice. A big thank you to Sangram, our driver, who was punctual, friendly, and shared so many fascinating insights about local life, Goan history, and hidden gems along the way. Also, a warm thank you to Vittu, Sangram’s brother, for driving us around during our stay — both made our trip even more enjoyable. The hotel itself is a spotless, with super comfortable beds and pillows, and all necessary sanitizers and amenities thoughtfully provided. The surrounding park area is simply beautiful — peaceful greenery, three swimming pools, and an amazing restaurant with an exceptional team that made us feel right at home. Every single staff member was kind, attentive, and always ready to help. A very special mention goes to Chef Nitin, who turned every meal into a true work of art. The lobster he prepared for us — freshly picked from the market that morning — was absolutely delicious and unforgettable! We highly recommend Seashell Suites and Villas to anyone visiting this region. It truly exceeded our expectations. The owner and staff went above and beyond to make our stay romantic, comfortable, and memorable. And to top it all off, a beautiful, clean beach is just a pleasant five-minute walk away. We can’t wait to come back — this place truly feels like paradise!

Nothing

The hotel is immaculate, all the staff are friendly and cannot do enough for you, the location is perfect, the rooms are large and comfortable with everything you need, breakfast was excellent and the pool facilities spotless, I cannot recommend this hotel enough.

Nothing to dislike

Treated like a king from minute I arrived. Easily best service at any hotel I have ever had. Unbelievably good. Room are lovely and although paid breakfast it’s was superb for the price. Drinks also were really well priced and on many occasions cheaper than bars. Can’t wait to go back

We had amazing time at Seashell, fantastic staff, food. Overall one of the best places we’ve stayed at, if you’re looking for hotel in Goa, Candolim this is the place to stay.

Очень чистая и уютная гостиница. Рекомендую

Amazing, extremely well maintained resort where you can enjoy some peace and quiet time away from bustling Candolim. The staff is exceptional, very friendly and helpful in whatever you need. Good breakfast buffet that is open till 11am. There are 3 pools with good beds and a nice terrace at the villa. Couldn’t have wished for anything more, the stay was amazing!

The shower has low water pressure and temperature is hard to manage, either too hot or too cold. There is a big kitchen in the villa but no plates and cutlery.

The property was clean, spacious and had great facilities which met our needs. All the staff were incredible and so kind. We got stuck one day and couldn’t get a taxi and the hotel sorted it out immediately for us, calling a taxi and arranging another for our journey back to the airport. Our room was always clean and tidy and even had a full fridge for us to keep drinks and snacks in which was much needed in the heat!

Nothing

Stayed here for the 4th time now and that itself speaks volumes of the exceptional hotel and hospitality offered. The breakfast is excellent. The staff and Mr Fernandes are so warm and friendly. The rooms are comfortable

Cant think of a single thing!
