Advantages: Close to the airport for transfers, Great Food. Disadvantages: Lots of seaweed gets washed up on the beach.
Flight Out:
I used Virgin Atlantic who fly out here. The flying time is 8 hours but, because of the time difference, it was the equivilent to a 4 hour flight (great). Of course this means the opposite coming back. Its 8 hours flying but you have to add 4 hours onto the time. Not so good
Landed:
The resort is within a 10 minute drive of the airport. Once there, the drive with the coconut palm trees gives you the clues that you've well and truely arrived.
All in:
The hotel is fully-inclusive so all the food (even in the 2 specialist food restaurants) is all in, as are MOST drinks. If you want a bottle of 'champers' with a meal, this is extra.
Reception:
The reception staff are helpful and friendly but with any complaints, if you should have any, ask to speak to the manager. The counter is a long one and can cope with quite ...
Advantages: Plush 5 star resort with ample grounds and facilities. Disadvantages: None
During a very cheap deal staying in a B&B in Goa John & I decided we had had enough of sleeping in what felt like a sauna and being bitten to death every single night by mosquitoes.
We had looked at the five star Fort Aguada Hermitage on line at home and the prices were not cheap($130 per night for a 1 bedroom villa) But we decided nothing ventured nothing gained and were so fed up we got a taxi to the huge grounds that belong to the world famous Taj group of hotels.
Upon asking at reception we were blown away when they said the same villa we looked at on line was $90 to book there and then so we asked if we could have a look.Now the villas are spread out through the hilly gardens and the grounds are so big that you have to get a golf buggy from reception to take you there!

The villa was out ...
Advantages: a stupendous sea and an unique reception. Disadvantages: perhaps the absence of sand-blasts to whom likes!
>Pola is a stupendous town to the borders between Croazia and Clovenia!
To be precise it is in Croazia but people of the place prefer to define thmselves like ISTRIANI.
So in this that once was an Italian province you can find a clear and clean sea and an extraordinary hospitality.
>To Fasana to 5 kilometers from Pola there is a stupendous camping-village called Bi-Village
where my wife and I have spent 10 maravillous days! For 100 Euros per day a room and breakfast
We spent the first 4 days in a suite with sight on the sea and private minigarden.
Then for other 6 days we preferred a mini floor foe 65 Euros without breakfast but with an accessoriated cooking (only tha pasta strainer was missing, there was also a moka of the Bialetti) and the weeklychange of sheets! Broom and mocio were also present as the clothes line winth ...
