We flew from Kyiv by Air Arabia with a transfer in Sharjah.
It takes 25 minutes to get to the hotel from the airport. Good location to the beach - the first line is the very first thing: ) a very cool place for a beach holiday. - We arrived in Bollywood at 7 am. I read reviews in advance on the Internet that normal rooms are up to 400 rooms. For 400 numbers are small and are located at the very end. At the reception, visitors are cunningly "bred", first they give numbers that start with 400 - the most terrible. They look at the reaction, it is negative for everyone and ask either to pay extra 15 USD per room per day for more than normal or wait until 11 until someone checks out from other rooms. We said OK, waiting until 11.
We weren’t too sad with our bags, we put the bags on the reception desk under the camera, took valuables with us and went to the beach. having bought, drunk rum in Antonio's shek cafe, we returned from the beach and were given a normal 310 and 312 number (312 is a little better and newer).

We were satisfied with everything in the room - yes, the bathroom is not new, all shabby, but the main thing is that it was normally clean and cleaned every day! The pool is clean and we chilled there too. When there is hot water, the air conditioner does not work (!!! ). They give it according to the schedule, but I never washed it because it is ordinary and so warm.
Things were not stolen from us because we did not leave in sight valuable things iPhones and iPads. Everything that they did not take with them was closed with a combination lock in a suitcase. Push with the receptionist and everything will be ok. They took only breakfasts, because their dinners and lunches are very sad and not worth the money at all, it’s better to eat on the beach...
-Breakfasts are normal, English, scrambled eggs, toast, butter, jam, omelettes, eggs, potatoes, fruits, tortillas. Tea and coffee bags, milk. Who complains and wants to ask, "but how do you eat at home? Immediately meat? " Well, in short, the breakfasts are normal, the husband was full....therefore, they are satisfied. Walk along the beach to the center of Colva for 7 minutes, from the hotel by taxi one way 50 rupees = 1 dollar.
- The beach is white clean with sand crisp as snow. Barnacle dogs run around cheerfully and do not interfere with anyone. Cows and other living creatures do not live there. If there are locals, they hang out further in the center, so there are few people on the beach, all hotel ones. In the sea, the sunset is gentle, soft, pleasant, the sea is warm. Nobody bites in the water. Great !

-We ate at a cafe on the beach Antonio Cafe. There the owner Antonio, Satin the waiter, Mario the waiter temporarily quit himself, after he drank too much with us : ) They also had sunbeds. Always delicious fresh juices, they wear straight to the sunbed, the food is amazing. The owner of the shek for dinner was ordered what to buy at the market and cook in the afternoon. They ate stingrays, sharks, barracudas, lobsters, large shrimp, crabs and other rubu-everything is delicious. Rum from them you can bargain a bottle of 150 rupees, provided that you constantly eat with them. We ate and dined there all the time. I have never been poisoned, everything is sooo tasty and friendly people. We tried everything on the menu, the seafood soup is very tasty and the salad with them, Manzhur shrimp and tortillas with garlic and cheese mmmmm. Feel free to try everything on the menu. Rum and cola is something. Or rum and pineapple fresh. By the way, if you drink rum, you definitely won’t get poisoned. The waiters understand and speak a little Russian. Menu in Russian 80%. Just not Silver Antonio Cafe, which is the second from the entrance, and behind it with a shabby sign - Antonio Cafe. For they pretend to be Antonio Cafe because they know that all visitors read the Internet and can also deceive themselves by calling themselves “Yes, I am Antonio”
We went once to Mikeys, which is to the right of the hotel just above the beach, I didn’t like it at all. Firstly, it is more expensive there, this time, secondly, the waiters do not understand anything in English. not in Russian. They are also deceived: you order fresh, they bring packaged juice for the price of fresh, ok... You order beer "kingfisher", they say there is no it... and they give tuborg more expensive, and then they bring "kingfisher" to the locals. Soup - ordered with seafood - brought with chicken, because it is 80 rupees more expensive. Although "Seafood" the word can already be understood, probably ? ! As a result, they make an innocent face and smile. In short... once we went and said we would not come again.
-Excursions. There are taxi drivers in front of the hotel. The most honest and Russian-speaking is Antonio Rodriguez (yes... they are all almost Antonio there). He has a bluish-silver "taieta", 7-seater with air conditioning. We went to old Goa for temples - 40 USD from the car, sit at least 7 people. : ) Waterfalls elephants and spices -180 USD per car. And on a beautiful beach, where there are a lot of foreigners, Pallolem from Cola beach + islands 50 ye. from the car. I liked everything very much. I advise you to take excursions only from Antonio Rodriguez. He is a good, hardworking man. He also exchanges dollars for rupees at a good rate. If he is not near the hotel, and you want to call him, there are his contacts at the Reception, they will be able to call him from there.
-Souvenirs and shopping-. Do not buy anything near the hotel, except for coconut oil for tanning which you can use, at 50 rupees. They deceive and do not bargain at all. (I bought a sunblock from them with a protection factor of 60,....otherwise it’s not 60 but 25,....because they glued 25 and pasted as much as they need for tourists, + on the packaging of the date No. My advice to you, if you want this kind of cosmetics - buy in Colva, there is a store of Ayurvedic cosmetics near the "Kinara cafe", all taxi drivers know. There is a chic selection of Ayurveda capsules and cosmetics for every taste. I advise. We bought soaps there, shampoos, creams, masks and for gifts and yourself. The only store where the price is fixed. In all other respects, bargain 3 times. If they say 800, then they will sell for 300 or even 250! ! Drums were sold on the beach near the hotel, they wanted $ 30, got 5 : )

Silver with stones at the same price as in our house (do not flatter yourself too much, do not lay out a lot of money)... so, purely as a keepsake, you can bring a ring with a ruby ​ ​ or emerald for 30 USD. It is best to buy silver on the way back at the airport near Duty Free. There prices are cheaper and the quality is better. I paid $ 90 for a set with an emerald and one more earrings, it’s not a pity, if anything : )
Mosquitoes are biting at night, so close the windows from mosquitoes, and it is better to buy local bite remedies from them, because ours do not help. If you were bitten by a mosquito, then upon arrival home it will itch for another week; )
You can go to Margao (center) everything will be even cheaper there. But apart from cosmetics and magnets with T-shirts, we didn’t need anything, so having bought souvenirs 1 time, we didn’t worry much.
Rest with pleasure, we liked the rest. The most important thing is the sea and the beach, and good people, and this is in abundance there. Feel free to go.
They don’t go to the tropics for a hotel vacation, a hotel is needed there to wash and spend the night. Everything.
