Anyone worrying about staying at this hotel - DON'T!
It's in a fantastic location, I would say the best in Calangute and Baga area. Gardens are kept lovely.
Rooms have good air con, cleaned everyday.
Only ate in the hotel once, so I can't really pass judgement on that.
The hotel is like a holiday village with cottages on either side leading down to the beach.
We ate at Bosco's beach shack which was great, all the lads that work there were lovely.
The pool is small but kept very clean, people don't really tend to stay round the pool as you don't get the breeze as you do on the beach.
We will be returning next year and definitely staying at the CSM!!
Hope you enjoy at much as we did!!

This was our second stay at CSM in 6 months and it was just as good as the first time.
The staff are very helpfull the hotel is kept very clean. Edward the reasturant manager goes out of his way to make you feel at home and gives you lots of good advice about the best places to make your purchases and not be over charged to much.
We will definitely stay there again next year.

When we arrived I found the room to be very basic and needing a few cosmetic changes. In fact it was a bit of a culture shock but after a few days you learn to get use to it.
The room had no air conditioning, just a fan. There was a TV shelf with aerial but no TV, still I didn't go on holiday to watch TV! I also did not like the fact the room was locked by a padlock. The room was cleaned each day and kept very clean. All the staff are very friendly from the top down.
Food: Breakfast is continental style; you pay extra for cooked breakfast. Dinner was paid for by a daily voucher, which you receive when you arrive - its value is RS250 and pays for the buffet, or you can choose from a set menu. Drinks are extra.
Entertainment was limited but we arrived just out of season so this might explain why.
Hotel is next to the beach with all the beach shacks easily accessible.
In conclusion, although not perfect the pros far more outweigh the cons.

The hotel suite was basic but comfortable with a lounge bedroom and shower room. The rooms were cleaned every morning and the bed sheets changed, the public areas were cleaned on a continuous basis.
The food was very good with a reasonable menu.
The location was brilliant only 2 minutes from the beach and security guards at frequent locations around the hotel ground to insure safety.
The staff were all extremely helpful and pleasant.
We had no entertainment while we were there.
We will definitely be going there again.

I have stayed at this hotel twice and we are due to stay again in January 2006.
The hotel has a good standard of cleanliness and is better than you would think for a two star hotel.
The food is very good and you do not have to have the buffet meals if you do not want to.
The hotel is in a superb location right next to the beach and the number of shacks there are plentiful.
The staff at the CSM are excellent, especially the girls on reception and Nick behind the bar.
The only downfall is the entertainment which is not really geared up to western standards, however there is plenty nearby if you want that type of thing.
This is a very popular hotel and if you get the chance to book it do so as it will offer an ideal introduction to Goa.

We stayed for 4 weeks when it should of been 2 weeks as I had a bad ear. The people at this hotel are so caring and looked after us.
The rooms are basic like all in Goa and the rooms are kept clean by the boys, they will do anything for you. There is a fridge and we had a tele with Uk programmes.
The restaurant was so good with the different food you could have, and chef would always do the best he could if you wanted anything different from the menu. The lads that waited on were ace!!!
Nothing was 2 much trouble for anyone.
The hotel is right on the beach you fall out of the hotel straight on the beach! There is also security looking out for you.
