Lemon Tree Amarante Beach Resort, Goa

I enjoyed my stay at the Lemon Tree hotel Amarante Beach Resort. I enojyed the short walk to the becah, the daily brunch and dinner service, the comfortable room, large pool and nearby shops in proximity to the hotel. I recommend Lemon Tree and would plan to stay at the chain of hotels on my next stay in India.

This hotel is in a very touristy area so with that in mind we had a great stay. On the property it’s a very calm environment. Staff are attentive and always willing to assist. Food was really good in the Citrus Cafe on property.

Increase parking.

It was amazing .. the staff was very friendly & they upgraded us too . Will definitely visit again

Great service. Excellent Staff. Heritage Rooms worth the extra money you have to pay.

Had a disappointment stay at this play. Fake 4 star hotel. From day 1 of my stay room had lots of issues. 1st water was leaking from air conditioner, 2nd no hot water in the morning to shower, 3rd didnt expect to see guests(insects) in the room. After raising these concerns still management didnt provide another room, they ignored. Only positive about this hotel is the friendly staff. Better stay away from this hotel if you want service for what you pay.

The whole hotel team was outstanding. From the check-in to daily restaurant interactions to the check-out , you feel welcome. Folks who complained about the restaurant don't give the staff credit for being truthful. As not all items in the menu are ready in minutes, since the town is a restaurant town . Guests usually stay at the hotel but eat out.

Nice hotel in comparison to those around us, staff good no complaints about anything except maybe the electricity was cut off about 3 times a day, not sure if this was the main grid or the hotels own system

On arrival informed that our room was not ready as there was construction underway and would not be ready until the following day. We were moved to a sister hotel, just as nice rooms apparently, and told we could take over our originally booked room anytime the following morning. Well, the room was not of the same standard, it hadn’t been finished for the new season. After breakfast we asked to move back to the resort we’d actually booked and paid for, we were picked up and dropped off at reception. It became clear that the reason for our move had nothing to do with renovation and all to do with double booking as we were informed we would have to wait for housekeeping to prepare the room. I was unwell by this time with the onset of Delhi Belly and asked the assistant manager how long this would take, half an hour was the response. An hour and a half later, after a number of visits to ask why we were still sat in reception we eventually moved into our room. The room was fine, the housekeeping and catering staff were great. The reception staff were clueless and the management lied. I’m hoping the issues were around early season preparations and the fact there was an Indian Religious Cekebration on that weekend, but would not stay there again due to the management dishonesty.

Friendly service, decent breakfast and great location. The check in was quick and efficient, and the pool was clean. The resort needs to spend a few months to renovate the rooms and common areas, as it has aged quite a bit.

Room was a little musty due to monsoon season & intercom phone needed to be disinfected.

Excellent location, great staff (truly truly helpful and cheerful - big shout out to Jophilip at front desk, Ayub from travel, and Vineet from housekeeping). The rooms are ageing and worn out. The double bed we had was two singles pushed together (so the middle sags). Breakfast could be improved (sausages tasted like bread) but who needs hotel food with such a great location and literally hundreds of restaurants and shacks within walking distance.

It's the people that make this hotel special. Yes, it's comfortable and clean and well looked after, but more importantly the welcome is warm and friendly, the staff are genuinely keen to help and I really enjoyed my stay. On the down-side - internet connection is unreliable and there are regular, short power outages (although this isn't the fault of the hotel - it's just Goa in general). The hotel is quiet, being set back from the road by a pretty courtyard but it is right in the centre of the main street and a short walk to the beach.

Ok, so I want to be hesitant to overly criticize the Lemon Tree because it wasn't bad. It was clean and safe, just nothing all that special. I read a bunch of reviews online that made the place seem a lot nicer than it actually was. Our expectation was that we were getting a luxury hotel but I'd more realistically rate this place on par with a 3-star hotel in the US, only with a nicer exterior and pool. The room was clean but nothing special. Don't upgrade for the balcony, its a waste of money. There was only one chair and NO view. Waste of money. Breakfast was adequate but nothing special. They set out what they called "fresh" juices but they tasted pre-mixed powder ones or watered down with water. The service was average but it wasnt the typical "we'll bend over backward to make you happy" level of hospitality that we had experienced everywhere else in India. This stay was right after the Indian demonetization which made it nearly impossible to find cash. Before there, all of the other hotels were accommodating tourists by helping pay cab fares and just adding it to the final bill. But this was a task too tall for the LT and we had to under pay our cab fare with the only remaining cash that we had left. That wasnt a default service that they we were promised but just an example of being a notch below the others. They also ask u to fill out a survey at the end of your stay but will interrogate you if you leave anything negative. We laughed as we left bc it was so awkward.

We came from USA and stayed in this nice hotel It is walking distance from the beach and close to shopping and restaurants. Our room was right across the lovely pool. My son enjoyed the pool very much.

Excellent service, very customer oriented staff. Special mention for Chandan and Agni. Awesome buffet breakfast and great dining experience at the pan asian restuarant.

We stayed here for 7 nights. Nice pool area and not far from the beach but route to the beach is not very clean.The rooms were comfortable but in desperate need of updating. Our windows were completely blocked out so we had absolutely no views and during our stay our phone wasn't working so we had to walk down to reception every time we needed something. Bathroom accessories weren't replaced, infact our shampoo container in the shower was empty throughout our stay. Staff friendly. I think the would benefit greatly if some refurbishment were carried out.

Nicer than others in comparison to others in the area.

Our group of 6 had booked 2 rooms at Lemon Tree Amarante Beach Resort for 2 nights. We had a wonderful stay at the resort. Last minute addition of an extra person was very smoothly managed. We had a small incident wherein one of us had lost our mobiles, and the hotel staff patiently helped us with the CCTV footage to help us trace our phone. We spent a good 30-45 minutes with them seeing some slow repetitive footage and the staff was very co-operative with us. Our rooms were maintained in good conditions. The linen was spotless and clean. Housekeeping staff also moved around smoothly not disturbing our routine or with the constant nagging we sometimes come across at other hotels. On the whole, we had a very good experience / pleasant stay at Lemon Tree.

Superior room and deluxe room rates to be revised. They are considerably high. Rooms have no view other than fountain and pool view.
