Sea stay in Goa at the Taj Exotica & Resort Spa: a guarantee of relaxation and excellent services

My clients traveling to India often ask me where to go to sea at the end of a tour without spending too much time on the move. I usually suggest Goa, easily accessible by air from all the major airports in India.
There are so many reasons to spend a few relaxing days at the seaside in this State that is situated more or less in the middle of the west coast of the Indian sub-continent.

Firstly, Goa has a climate that makes its beaches bathing from late September to May. Secondly, in addition to the thirty kilometers of sandy coastline, it boasts a considerable historical and architectural heritage, testimony to its past as a former Portuguese colony. Just think that Goa was returned to India only in 1962, when it had already become independent of English rule for fourteen years.
Particularly noteworthy are the Catholic churches concentrated in the area of Old Goa, such as the Cathedral of St. Catherine (of Sé in Portuguese) and the basilica of Bom Jesus. Christian worship is still widespread in Goa, where one of the most populous Catholic communities in India lives. It is nice to dedicate at least one day of visiting alternating catholic  churches and Indian temples, really instructive of how religious diversity managed to coexist peacefully in this State.

Finally, the third aspect is the presence of excellent 5-star resorts, where the stay becomes the main experience that is worth the trip.

The Taj Exotica Resort is undoubtedly one of these champions, as it brings together many qualities: beautiful architecture of Portuguese imprint, bright colors buildings at most two floors high; really well kept lush gardens even in the dry season; a very large sandy beach at low tide, when spectacular sunsets can be enjoyed; elegant furnishings without exaggeration both in the rooms and in the public  areas; a spacious pool in the garden as an alternative to the beach; small golf course and playground for cricket, for those who love sports.

But the keyword is relaxation and everything favors this goal. The green spaces all around, the sea and the beach in front, the friendly and well trained staff, a Spa with a rich menu of massages and beauty treatments. And dulcis in fundo ... a superb cuisine! Whether you choose the buffet restaurant Sala da Pranzo, or the Lobster Village by the sea, or the refined Miguel Arcanjo where I recommend having dinner on the romantic terrace!
