Joecons Garden Restaurant

Reviewed By Lorraine0509 - Cardiff

The perfect place for a relaxing holiday. Room g05 was situated on the ground floor overlooking the pool. Room was spacious with amazing air con, cleaned daily, mini bar and freshtowels daily. Pool area was peaceful in the mornings but could get busy later in the day. The boys would bring extra beds out if needed. The omelettes at breakfast are freshlycooked and delicious. At the restaurant the menu was varied. I would recommend you try the greeny prawns a favourite of ours. Thank you joecons for a fab holiday. We'll be back xx

Reviewed By MithunNair - Mumbai, India

If you are looking for a nice sea facing restaurant nothing beats johncy for sure. The servers are pretty cool too. The authentic goan food is a delight and the beer towers and cocktails are best during the hot sunny days. We ended up trying their yummy vindaloos and xacutis along with rice.

Blue Corner

Reviewed By Nicola S

Spent a few days at this shack with kids, right beside a life guard which gave some reassurances! Reasonable prices for food and drink and the quality was really good. Tasty sweet and sour with my daughter loved, nice chips! Crispy chicken lovely and omelette very nice, rotis lovely. You weren't hassled by anyone to have a drink whilst on sunbeds which was nice and the same if you sat inside, not hassled by staff to eat or drink. A shower in the toilets which were clean and was nice to wash off sand at the end of the say. The only downside was a few too many dogs around but they didn't bother anyone unless people were a bit daft and fed them.
