This was my sixth time staying at Hilias Retreat and once again, it was an excellent experience. The rooms were clean and well-organized, and the proximity to the beach was a major plus. The hospitality shown by Mr. Hilias and his family is truly exceptional. It feels like a home-away-from-home, which is rare to find in Goa. Despite a few minor drawbacks, Hilias Retreat is a great place to stay. I highly recommend this hotel.

Hilias Retreat: quiet, close to beach, clean, friendly staff, good value.

Nothing at all.

The location of this hotel is unbeatable, as it is right next to the beach. The cleanliness of the rooms is outstanding, with meticulous attention to detail. The hotel facilities are top-notch, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The staff are extremely friendly and always willing to help.

Couldn't find any faults at all.

We had a fantastic stay at a retreat in Palolem. The location was perfect, just a few seconds away from the beach and within walking distance to nearby places to eat and drink. Our room, one of the 'palm view' rooms on the first floor, had a lovely balcony with views through the palm trees. The room was spacious, with good air conditioning and a great water heater in the shower. Highly recommend!

The location is perfect, just a short walk from the beach, with a charming building and friendly staff. They even have a cute pug! The rooms are clean and well-equipped, with bottled water provided in the fridge for convenience. Plus, you can rent bikes directly from the hotel. The hot shower, air conditioning, and fan ensure a comfortable stay.

Felt safe walking at night, no complaints at all.
