The Diwa Club by Alila

Beautiful and well maintained facilities, amazingly friendly staff and excellent spa

The MOST amazing hospitality service I have experienced in Goa! Amazing team, the most comfortable rooms with HUGE bathrooms at the Diwa Club! And the concept of anytime breakfast 7am-7pm is what holidays should be about! An oasis of calm and beautiful charms. Loved our family holiday at Alila Diwa Club! A BIG Thank you to the hospitality team!

One of the best properties we've stayed in Goa. The room sizes are huge. Choice of restaurants is great. The beach is secluded (not too crowded) with a couple of beach shacks availabe. The place has its own VIBE. We were travelling with kids and our pets. The rooms were serviced twice a day!

We stayed in the Diwa club and the staff there make a lasting impression with their friendliness, professionalism and attention to details. Overall was an amazing stay

We stayed for 6 nights following a 12-night private tour from Bangalore during October 24 – this was our second visit during 2024. We are well travelled - and I see this hotel and location as viable alternative to the Caribbean or Dubai or the Far East Hotel complex divided into 2 separate entities whist sharing many of the facilities - Club guests can access to whole site whilst guests from ALIA do not get access to the Club facilities. The Club has its own entrance reception and dedicated staff. The accommodation is top quality – we stayed in room D365 - top floor overlooking pool - large room - divided into 2 - front half living/sleeping and remainder bathroom and storage - large comfy bed - slept well during our stay - better than at home - large walk-in shower - very good and controllable - all toiletries in pump action re-fillable containers Fridge - tea coffee - range of glasses - effective AC - ceiling fan - well lit - floor to ceiling windows Large balcony – a couple of day beds for lounging - table and chairs - drying rack Dedicated lounge – Bistro - breakfast from extensive menu - afternoon tea - canapés and drinks Large and dedicated swimming pool with sun loungers and parasols - patrolled for outsiders - no music. Short walk to main hotel for more restaurants - Vivo - all day dining – Club residents can get breakfast there. Spa - very good - treatments not overpriced - I had a haircut and beard trim which was well done – plus we both had ayurvedic based massages – very good. Staff make any hotel - very attentive - always ready to make your stay better or as smooth as possible - never pushy - never looking for next tip. There are shops a tailor restaurant massages and excursions and just outside the main gate - our beer shop also changed money at a reasonable rate There is a shuttle to take you to the nearby beach and a complimentary service that takes you to the nearest airport (GOI) with a current charge of 6000INR for the newer international airport (GOX) The food - this is often the elephant in the room - all tastes are catered for - if you want an Indian or English or Continental breakfast the choice is yours - if you don’t want spice there are other options - if you want chips (and who doesn’t) rather than rice it’s your choice - the hotel and/or surrounding restaurants will mean you won’t starve (or get ill) Whilst everything about hotel is very good, they could improve the quality of the toilet tissue - poor quality and gets bottom marks from me This is an interesting hotel - when we were here in January it was the wedding season - lots of Indian weddings - colourful noisy exuberant - but self-contained - we had the pool to ourselves despite the Wing being full - and no outside noise after 10 - this time it was conferences - again fully contained and entertained with no impact on the guests I like India and this hotel - Goa offers the weather - although not during our stay as we caught the end of the monsoon

Excellent resort, loved the whole experience. Very spacious bedrooms, excellent food and drink choices. The High Chai and Sundowner Hour are fab. Lovely pools. Really chilled vibe around the place. Had a very relaxing head message too. Staff are very polite and attentive. Isn't much to do in the local area, beach is gorgeous and that's about it...but not the fault of the resort.
