Have checked the hotel reviews and we are thinking of staying at Pretty Petals (Candolim). Latest review is 2007, has anyone stayed there more recently and able to update so we can make a more informed choice.?
btw really good to be back amongst friends and fellow Goa lovers xxx
Some friends of ours stay there each year and love it.
as far as I know it books up very quickly with repeat visitors so best not to hang around too long!
Cheers Del. No idea wat they pay by any chance?. We will be going for 2 weeks either at the end of Feb or very beginning of March. Thanx again for your reply. Goa forum rules.!!
I THINK (stress think) its around £20 per night during Feb, but not sure.
They get a special deal with being regulars but the above is what I was quoted last season for this year (2012)
Don't know if that includes air conditioning but guess so at that price.
It's in a good location though and looks nice from the outside.
I had a look in Pretty Petals last year whilst looking for alternative accomodation after 1 night in the Coqueiral. Very nice indeed, i was shown one of the smaller ground floor rooms and it was spotless. Very bright and cheerfull and when i asked about a larger room i was told one would be available after 2 days. Im not 100% on this but i think i was quoted 1300rps for small room and 1500rps for the large room. The only thing i didnt like about it was the small lane i would have to travel down each night to get home. I checked out a few other places and was just about to go back to Pretty Petals to barter/accept the price for the room when i came across the Horizon View. In my opinion this was in a better location and also at 1250rps was a little cheaper. Well being a canny scot you know the outcome Liked the Horizon so much were going back in March again for 3 weeks. Even managed to get it cheaper 1000rps per night 98 sleeps, bring it on !
Stayed at Pretty Petals a couple of years ago first class, yes its situated in a quiet lane but close to the beach and lots of bars and restaurants and the HT wednesday meeting. Ground Floor rooms are cheaper than the first floor which are slightly larger and are airconditioned.
the bar is only at one end with all the rooms behind. The bar is never that busy that you would be troubled with any noise. Stayed here last March and we are returning next March. Bring it on,its bl##dy freezing up ere
