Guest Reviews

• Fabio (10/5): Great stay in Palolem - I had a great stay at Cafe Blu. Beautiful beachfront accommodation with amazing sea views and a very relaxing atmosphere. The staff was always friendly, welcoming, and ready to help with anything. A perfect place to enjoy Palolem and feel at home. Highly recommended!
• Arpan Jyoti (8/5): -
• Linda (10/5): Lovely - Staff were excellent Location could’nt have been better. Had a very relaxing 5 nights
• Valerie (10/5): - Loved the location
• Christine West (8/5): Beautiful setting. - Location is key to this hotel. Room overlooking the beach with a balcony. Comfy bed. Clean room. Very friendly staff.
• christopher (7/5): Lovely stay , a little expensive for India , paying for location rather than condition of Hotel - On the Beach , nice breakfast, nice food , lovely staff Bit outdated, could do with uplift
• Puri (9/5): Paraíso frente al mar - La ubicación es perfecta, frente a la playa te duermes y despiertas con el sonido del mar El acceso está un poco escondido pero el personal del hotel te espera en la entrada lo que soluciona el problema
• Andrei Kovaliov (10/5): -
• Stefaan (7/5): Good. - Breakfast was ok. Staff was always ready with advice. The location is very good. The music in the evening could be much better. More variety (a bit of nice rock and roll)
• Rob (10/5): Excellent Stay! - A beautiful beach front property that offers fantastic value for money. We chose a seaview room which had a great sized balcony fornished with chairs, tables and a big drying rack for swimwear and shoes. The bedroom itself furnished with a four poster bed (with mozzie nets) a couple of tables, wardrobe and kettle. Separate loo and bathroom. The room is secured by a nautical style latch and padlock and also has one way glass. The restaurant serves great food throughout the day and what we loved most was being able to dine on the beach and not move until the tide lapped around our feet. The staff are incredible. Raj and his team couldn't do enough for us, even organising laundry and taxis. Great location to explore the local area.
• Martin (9/5): -
• Claire (9/5): Parfait - Le grande gentillesse du personnel. La restauration et l’installation le soir de tables sur la plage Accès un eu compliqué avec les bagages
• Anastasia (10/5): - Мы посетили Cafe Blue в феврале этого года и остались очень довольны. Номера регулярно убираются, всё чисто и аккуратно. В пешей доступности находится базар, что очень удобно. А близость к морю особенно радует — по вечерам слышен шум волн, создающий невероятно приятную атмосферу. Готовят здесь очень вкусно, кухня действительно потрясающая. Для детей есть большой выбор мороженого, а также даже настольные игры, что делает отдых с семьёй ещё приятнее. Отдельно хочется отметить персонал — очень внимательные, заботливые и вежливые люди. На пляже есть шезлонги, а закаты здесь просто невероятно красивые. Место очень тихое и спокойное — нет шума и криков по ночам, что тоже большой плюс для отдыха. И что немаловажно для поездок с детьми — ни у нас, ни у детей за всё время не было никаких проблем с животом.
• Jon (10/5): - Raj and his staff were absolutely amazing and made my stay very special. It was ny first time travelling alone and they may my trip one I'll never forget. Thank you. It was faultless.
• Eglantine (10/5): - Un séjour parfait. Le personnel est aux petits soins. On s'y sent choyé. Le logement était confortable, la vue paradisiaque. J'y retournerai dès que possible. Allez y les yeux fermés
• Davydova (10/5): -
• Fran (8/5): It was wonderful, loved it! - The location was beautiful and the staff were so kind and helpful. Nothing
• abhishek (8/5): -
• Kairat (9/5): Все было замечательно от заселения до последнего дня - Местоположение отличное, чистый пляж, мягкий песок, дно пологое, удобные шезлонги. Комната была чистая, уютная со всеми необходимыми принадлежностями. Кухня хорошая. Вкусные завтраки, на ужин был выбор свежих морепродуктов. Персонал внимательный, вежливый. Приехали раньше времени и нас накормили завтраком и заселили по готовности номера. Собаки 😅 Выли и лаяли иногда
• Nelson (10/5): - The staff were so friendly and helpful. Eating on the beach was beautiful and food was good A daily clean or change of towels would be good.
• Colin (10/5): Great stay, staff brilliant and food excellent - Position and chalets very comfortable
• Ruben (9/5): To be on the beach - A balcony on the beach Nice staff Bed not so comfortable Stairs access not the best
• Rob (8/5): - Wonderful staff in a fantastic location. Made us feel like part of the family.
• Susan (9/5): - Everything was great Very loud guests keeping me up during the night with their loud party, but luckily the staff kindly helped by asking them to respect their sleeping neighbours
• Wendy (10/5): There is only one word to sum up our stay EXCELLENT - Everything went well from the friendly welcome on arrival, all staff were very attentive and so helpful, you couldn’t get better location for the beach, room was very clean & spacious, Cafe Blue is definitely a place to stay.
• Johann (8/5): - Personal, alle super freundlich nett und hilfsbereit
• allyson (9/5): Great location, extremely good, friendly and helpful staff. Very comfortable. - Great location very near one end of the beach. Raj and his staff were a great asset 10 out of 10🤗. Raj was charming and good fun. I asked for extra pillows because I like a soft bed and a soft mattress topper was also supplied. ( The mattress was actually soft anyway) I felt like I was sleeping in marshmallows… perfect for me😊 after the very hard mattresses of India. Brilliant aircon. The food was good and prices for the beach reasonable. Sunbeds in front of the hotel on beach with lovely new fluffy towels were great. I can’t give it a ten because the bath towels and bedding were old and didn’t always seem clean. I’m sure they were.
• Yizhaq (9/5): -
• seeley (7/5): -
• Beverley (10/5): Lovely stay - Wry clean Nothing
• Darryll (10/5): - All the staff were very attentive and catered to our every need. Nothing
• Гордеева (10/5): -
• Martin (10/5): - Raj and all the staff were very welcoming and couldn't do enough to make sure that everything was good everyday. All the food was very tasty. Nothing
• jacqueline (9/5): Relax en playa paradisíaca - La ubicación es fantástica, la zona es preciosa. Todo el personal fue mucho más que amable, nos hizo sentir como en casa El precio comparado con otras ofertas.
• Stiel (9/5): Unbedingt hingehen und bleiben - Wir hatten eine außergewöhnliche Zeit im Café Blue! Die Lage ist hervorragend, das Essen sehr abwechslungsreich und ausgesprochen schmackhaft – ganz gleich, ob indisch oder kontinental. Was den Besuch jedoch wirklich besonders macht, ist das großartige, flexible Team rund um Rag und Javier: Corab, Bracash, Soren, Visal und Djivan. Sie alle sind das Herz des Café Blue und schaffen eine Atmosphäre, die zum Verweilen einlädt. Sehr empfehlenswert!
• Brian (10/5): Great beach-front stay in a great resort - Second time staying at Cafe Blue and it didn’t disappoint. We had a ground floor room with a partial sea view which was large, clean and comfy with a hot shower. A small balcony outside gave a view of the sea through the restaurant area. Food in the restaurant is great (tuna on an evening was awesome) and there are free sun beds on the beach right in front of the of the property. Staff are great and we will definitely be back. Note though that payment in cash is preferred otherwise there are high bank charges to cover (they will wiz you to the bank machine if necessary). Nothing really.
• Oleg (10/5): Мы приезжали чтобы смотреть и слушать море из номера - done! - Первая линия, засыпать и просыпаться под звук прибоя, очень вкусно готовили, возможность заказать напитки и еду к лежаку. Лежаки также предоставлялись от отеля. Ребята организовали нам новогодний стол и всегда были приветливы. Все сильно старенькое и уставшее, но исполняет свой функционал. Перфекционистам и пятизвездничникам сразу мимо.
• Manfred (9/5): Es waren herrliche und entspannte Tage die wir im Cafe blue verbracht haben - Die Lage war top, das Personal sehr sehr freundlich. Es wurde fast jeder Wunsch erfüllt. Der Chef auch sehr kompetent. Die Anlage müsste schon ein wenig erneuert werden. Den TV haben wir nicht vermisst. Es sollte mehr Obst beim Frühstück angeboten werden. Die Auswahl beim Frühstück war nicht allzu groß.
• Roberto (10/5): Cafe Blue: relax e comfort - La posizione della camera con vista mare! Il personale gentile, accorto e professionale. Pagamento con pos in struttura come da descrizione
• Siddhartha (9/5): excellent - Great for money. Good location, very helpful staff. No point
• Bhaskar (10/5): Excellent stay...Cafe blue best👌 - I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Cafe Blue Cottages on Palolem Beach in South Goa. This is truly the best place to stay on the beach — peaceful, beautifully maintained, and perfectly located right on the shore with stunning sea views. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was outstanding. The staff are warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. A special mention to Mr. Bishal, who took exceptional care of us throughout our stay. From seafood to drinks and dinner, every recommendation he made was perfect — the food was always fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The cottages are clean, comfortable, spacious and well-equipped with all the amenities you need for a relaxed beach holiday. The ambiance is calm and relaxing, and waking up to the sound of the waves is just magical. The service is quick, the staff are always smiling, and nothing ever feels like too much trouble. Moreover, the 8 ball pool and darts added a brilliant engagement for kids and all. Overall, location, hospitality, view, amenities, staff behavior, food, and service are all excellent. I would highly recommend Cafe Blue Cottages to anyone visiting Palolem Beach — we truly had a memorable stay and would love to come back again! There is nothing to dislike here.
• Wendy (10/5): From the moment we arrived the owner was so welcoming couldn’t do enough for us so glad we choose to stay at Cafe Blue w - Everything was perfect, if you ask for anything it was done straight away, very clean & comfortable.
• Kumar (7/5): Overall, it was a pleasant stay with easy access to the beach. However, the dining experience was a bit disappointing. T - Location is good easy to access beach Disappointed with the service. The staff seems understaffed and biased toward foreign tourists. There is no official room service; while they helped us once because we were with family, we generally had to carry our own food and belongings. Not the most hospitable experience also they gave us room on the stairs at first floor which is not family friendly

• Kachireddy (7/5): -
• sinha (8/5): Value for money - It's right on the beach. Rooms are clean and comfortable with hot water The cafe is a little off the main road so one has to walk about 200 meters to reach it
• Tanita (9/5): - Sea view is amazing and coffee there is excellent Limited breakfast
• Alexis (8/5): Great - Great location
• Ashish (1/5): pathetic stay( Don't even think to stay here) - only and only view nothing else and it is natural staff, service, what else nothing was perfect it is simply an pathetic place truly unprofessional staff
• Per (9/5): Superb -
• Suzanne (10/5): Don’t expect 5star luxury but you will absolutely get a 5 star experience! The place was AMAZING and staff were so frie - This place is right in the beach it’s soooooo relaxing Nothing
• Dhivare (8/5): Very good -
• Annemarie (8/5): Fantastic - Perfect on the beach at the quiet end of palolem yet easy walkable to the main road with shops.very attentitive staff They don’t have a coffee machine only instant coffee. We went to the neigbours for a decent cup of coffee
• Paul (7/5): Was once the place to stay but adjacent stays are better value for money - Fantastic location! The more expensive, upstairs rooms are a little tired, in need of refurbishment.
• Christoph-dominik (9/5): Superb - Greatest location directly at the beach. Staff is very considerate and helpful. Would definitely stay there again!
• Eugene (10/5): Five Days of Heaven - Location - The hotel is on the north end of Palolem beach and closest to the ocean. My ocean front room had unrestricted views of the entire beach. The breakfast has western and Indian options. It's fabulous as is all the food at the resort. The staff is awesome. Beach chairs and facilities are top notch. The mosquito net in the room was a nice touch. For the more budget minded the off-beach rooms have nice porches and shady areas. The rooms are nice sized but sparse which is not a problem since i spent all my time outside. The appeal for this hotel is the location, food and staff.
• Feline (10/5): Great stay! - The location is perfect and the staff was very helpful and friendly! We have had a very comfortable stay at Cafe Blue.
• Lindsey (8/5): A lovely little spot in Palolem - Large comfy bed and pillows. Beautiful views from the balcony - you can't get any better views of Palolem beach. Aircon was ok. It was great to be beach front. The highlight for us were the lovely staff, they were really friendly and helpful throughout our stay - couldn't fault them. We had a sea view room and it was very basic. If you like luxury then choose something else. If you like no-frills beach front accommodation then this place is for you.
• Peter (10/5): Awesome place ride on the beach. - Cafe Blue is in a fantastic location right on the beach, has a great restaurant and Bar, my friend and I among other meals had a fantastic fresh fish curry right on the beach. More importantly all the staff were awesome, with Reno looking after everything. Leaving
• Michel (8/5): Well located, pleasent staff, questionable commercial policy - Well located at the beautiful end of the beach, close to a backwater, clear view of the sea, unlike other parts where it is blocked by stranded boats The staff is pleasant, attentive, the manager is serious and professional but applies a questionable commercial policy aimed at obtaining payment for the stay in cash, which begins at the time of booking for which the 50% deposit is not taken. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, clean (when cleaned which is inconstant), the decoration is limited to a poster reminding that checkout is at 10 a.m. From 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., loud boom boom music contrasting with the tranquility of neighboring establishments cf supra,
• Adrian (3/5): Poor -
• Linda (7/5): Ideal location, beach beautiful, staff v friendly, food amazing g. - Straight onto the beach, lovely staff, food amazing. Room need a bit of TLC
• Paul (10/5): Exceptional - Our room 515. Seafood,. Views. Nothing
• Teresa (8/5): Very good - Large rooms, clean, comfortable. Good staff, especially Gorawn. The fish selection in the evening was great. We tried many of the restaurants nearby but the Xacuti curry here was the best. Could do with a bit of updating.
• Wayne (7/5): Good -
• Abdul (8/5): Very good - Location
• Davood (9/5): Superb -
• Linn (10/5): Great accommodation and very friendly staff, especially Gaurav who made our trip perfect. - Clean and with the sound of the sea
• Linda (7/5): It’s all about the views and the people - Excellent location, excellent balcony with brilliant views, good food and great staff Needs a bit of a tidy up
• Devesh (10/5): Exceptional - Great service, Gaurav was best taking care of us A great experience, they can always improve their vegetarian kitchen
• Sam (10/5): Great holiday in paradise - Great varied choice of included breakfast. Beach location was perfect for us. Nothing
• Jimmy (10/5): Best most relaxing and beautiful part of our trip to India due to beautiful property and excellent staff !! - The position at the quieter northern end of the beach, the beautiful AC room with very comfortable bed. The balcony with view beach and glorious sunsets .. but most of all Reno and his team (especially Vishal, Gaurav and Sam) made it just the best holiday . They looked after us so well, and went out of their way to help . Thank you. We should also mention the food and the chef were outstanding , we tried other places on the beach, but soon realised we didn’t need to eat anywhere else. Prawn Vindaloo and the tandoori seafood were sublime ! Thank you all at Cafe Blue !!! We hope to be back soon. That we had to leave too soon !! Seriously there’s nothing we didn’t like
• Rajeesh (9/5): Superb -
• Komal (8/5): We enjoyed relaxing stay at Cafe Blue Resort on Palolem Beach. - The property is ideally located right on the beach, featuring a comfortable room and bed with a stunning sea view. The beachfront is clean, and the location is perfect for a relaxing holiday. The staff were very helpful and courteous, and the overall service was excellent. The resort restaurant's interior and furniture could be improved, such as replacing the plastic chairs with more comfortable seating and upgrading the bar area.
• Twinkle (10/5): Exceptional -
• Dikshita (9/5): Highly recommend. 👍 - We had a great time in cafe blue. The staffs specially Ranjit, Badal, Gaurav were awesome. They made our stay super comfortable. The food was super delicious and hygienic. Seafood was very yum. The room was clean and tidy. Thank you to all the staffs. They also provided us with one extra complimentary breakfast which included dal(it was too yum) and rice. Grateful to the owner. We will surely visit again. 😍 Nothing.
• Louise (10/5): Blue as heaven - This place gives room for everyone. We were mother and daughter, and we met so much hospitality and kindness. We felt cared for and secure with the staff who we felt were attentive to our securite. As one example they waited two from the staff for us as we arrived. We could see that all kind of different travellers that stayed here were met the same way as us. Nobody being prentetious. Staff seemed real and honest. This way you can be yourself where you stay. I hope this place will keep its staff and good ambience till I return.
• Trishita (9/5): Superb -
• Craig (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jonathan (9/5): Superb -
• Ausaf (9/5): Superb -
• Nipun (7/5): Good - Loved the partial sea view room. The food at the cafe is good. We had veg food. Loved that it is right at the beach. The staff is good. Loved that they picked up and dropped the luggage from the parking lot. I didn't quite like the sea view room, the smell of the paint was disturbing. Hand wash was not given, there were a lot of flies and mosquitoes. Even the water bottle was not provided. There can be more veg options in breakfast. The cafe area can be clean as there is beach sand all around. One of the staff members was expecting some tip from us as he served us and when we didn't respond, he seemed very upset.
• Rahul (8/5): Very good - Extra hygienic Room and Washroom
• Mayur94 (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, great staff behaviour and lovely rooms
• Serge (9/5): we come back every year ;) - great place very simple but clean and amazing experience nothing
• Ranjan (5/5): Passable -
• Goutam (9/5): Superb -
