Fort Tiracol Goa 

First time traveller to both India and Goa so wasn't really sure what to expect. The location itself is beatiful, a coverted fort overlooking the bay. We stayed in the 'Sunday' room which was one of two suites available. The sitting area is large with a comfortable couch and chairs. The bedroom contains a superking bed which was very comfortable along with a TV. The bathroom had a walkin shower with a decent pressure and was clean and tidy.The bedroom also has access to a completely private veranda with sufficient room for 2 loungers, table and chairs. The restaurant food was very good quality and if you don't like too much spice they can calm this down as long as you let them know. The staff are very friendly and will go out of their way to help you. The hotel also offers limited local excursions, these not only give good background on the local culture / history but are also hosted by local people and its always good to spend locally. The ferry terminal is approx 1 mile away, although this is a pleasant walk you need to avoid 11-3pm. The hotel can either offer a courtesy lift or arrange a local taxi. On that note the cafe at the ferry point served a great butter chicken ! Overall I really enjoyed my time here, its was quiet and peaceful which was the perfect was to start my India holiday Ps. If they still have cumin prawns on the menu they're a must eat !
