FORT AGUADA BEACH RESORT
Goa
Goa,
where the palm fringed shore of India's western coast spills over with
the bounty of nature. And the strains of the mandolin mingle with the
gentle lapping of the Arabian Sea, floating up to serenade the stars.
Savour these pleasures with the Taj,
a sprawling complex of 88 acres on the Golden sands of Calangute Beach.
With 3 resorts: The Aguada Hermitage, Fort Aguada Beach Resort and Taj
Holiday Village. Choose to stay at any of these three resorts and you
can experience the fare at our 9 restaurants, delight in the water of
our two freshwater pools or if you fancy, select a sport of your choice
at our superbly equipped sports complex.
Built,
into the ramparts of a 16th centuary Portuguese forttress , Fort
Aguada Beach Resort is a fascinating structure where romance
whispers from the elegant terraces down to the emerald gardens.
The main
complex affords a choice of standard rooms and terrace suites with spectacular
views. And nestling upon a hilltop are the newly designed cluster of cottages
that come with either 1 or 2 bedrooms.
Rooms
 Decorated
in its own distinct style, each terrace suite is designed to create an
unique tapestry of gorgeous colour and design.
Exquisitely
designed guest rooms overlook palm flecked lawns, a freshwater pool and
a vast expanse of cerulean sea.
Cuisine
Delectable
cuisine options can be savoured in the 9 restuarants at our resorts. Five
of these are at Fort Aguada Beach Resort itself. You'll find the choice
fascinating and the experience, entirely unique.

sun, the poolside comes alive with a host of traditional delights. Sit
