Lemon Tree Amarante Beach Resort, Goa

Location: The hotel is perfectly situated in Candolim, just a 5-minute walk from the beach, offering guests easy access to pristine sands and local culture. Its location balances tranquility and proximity to attractions, with major sites 20-30 minutes away.(based on 1 review)

We had a booking for 2 days with a 7 months old infant and a child.But this hotel almost ruined our vacation.There are few points I need to highlight 1.The check in process was horrible.The reception staff lack knowledge and professionalism.They made us wait 1 hr even after we reached the hotel after the check in time that is 3 pm.Upon asking several times,they said the rooms are not available.But we booked the tickets nearly 2 months prior through MMT.My 7 months old infant was crying in hunger,but the reception staffs were busy gossiping. 2.Finally we got the room on the ground floor with an uncleaned front yard.They said they upgraded the room which we never asked for. 3.Then comes the real nightmare.The door lock was not working the whole time in our stay .We had to go to reception every time we wanted to open the door.Basic necessity like door lock was not working in this so called 4 star hotel. 4.The way to the beach was isolated and full of insects and creepers.It was way too far from the property.I got a bad insect bite while going to the beach. 5.Then comes the taxi mafias sitting just at the entrance of the hotel.They threatened our taxi driver not to pick us up from the hotel.No outside taxi driver will agree to pick you up and you had to book a taxi from them with almost double the amount of fare.But the hotel won't do anything and won't provide you any taxi. Our stay in the lemon tree amarante was a nightmare and I won't recommend anyone to go to this pathetic hotel especially if you have a kid.I don't know how reputed chain of hotels like Lemon tree is associated with this kind of pathetic property. The only good thing was the food.The restaurant staff were really good especially Amjid.
