San Joao Holiday Homes — Hotel in Goa

Firstly let me say that this place is exceptionally cheap, in a beautiful location and was a good laugh.||However, it needs a bit of love and attention. On arrival reception staff were very good and we were able to check in 2 hrs before normal check in time. The apartments are massive with a big kitchen, roomy bedrooms and really good bathrooms.||But the beds, oh dear. It was like concrete. We stayed 2 nights and had to use the cushions off the sofa the second night. We were all exhausted when we left.||Breakfast- pure comedy, we ordered toast and eggs, the toast came first before the eggs and we had to pay for the butter on our toast before the eggs came. The guy at breakfast wouldn't let us have for coffee ( self serve) before we paid for our first cup, I should add we were using our own coffee. It was a laugh!||The pool was very nice although we used the beach.||I would stay here again if the beds were changed because the location was perfect and the views over the field very pretty, we saw peacock's, piglets and all sorts of different birds. Only a ten minute walk...

Hotel SAN Joao is a no go unless you want a very low budget holiday. It was dirty in desperate need of upgrading. In the bedroom we didn’t have a wardrobe or draws ....in the bathroom was just a light bulb with bare wires showing...the beds were dreadful very uncomfortable, bed linen was all bobbly and the pillows were dirty. They were cleaned but at an exceptionally low standard. Definitely not worth the money they charge even for a budget hotel.The kitchens were ill equipped with filthy curtains. Definitely not recommended. Could not wait to get home to be honest.||The only positive remark is Brice the owner was very accommodating and the staff were friendly and helpful. ||Needs upgrading to a better standard in all of the bedrooms also the whole building outside.||My daughter rented a room with a corner bath which had a hole on the bottom of the bath and scratched and dirty.||Do not recommend this hotel at all. Do not let the...

Large one bed apartment- old fashioned but clean. Noisy air conditioning. Fridge, kettle, safe and tv. Things kept breaking but were replaced immediately. Owner is lovely- very friendly and helpful. Pool was a bit grubby but beach is only 15 mins away and its a nice interesting walk. Not much nearby- couple of supermarkets. Cafe josephine opposition does delicious samosas for about 12p. Quite a few mozzies in the evening. No restaurant or bar but we were out every evening so it didn't matter. However, if you do want a beer they will whizz off on their moped and get you some. Local beach is called Vardy- beautiful beach- only a few shacks - free wifi in most of them. Facing the sea walk 10 mins to your right and its benaulim beach- bit busier and tourist shops. San joao is great...
