5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 June 2013 NEW

I booked a short trip to Goa at the end of April/beginning of May, and had foolishly taken advice from a work colleague to stay in another hotel in Calangute. I checked out after just 2 nights (my first hotel was awful) and came straight to Pousada Tauma after reading excellent reviews on TripAdvisor. Yes, it's more expensive than other... More

Dear Guests, We thank you for reviewing our little Pousada.Taken back by your review since you expressed great level of satisfaction during your one night stay and not two nights as you claimed.At that time you were convinced that you should not be expecting the same level of amenities which are provided by City hotels,since it is the beach destination....

A lovely, very quiet hotel with superior service. Calangute is a dynamic and noisy holiday village. You will find shelter in this hotel which is quiet, chilly, clean and you will be able to rest there. People who work there are friendly, can adjust to your needs, will make your wish, will help and make you feel really well serviced.... More

Had a fantastic stay @ Pousada Tauma. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. All fundamentals of the hotel are of very high standard. Full of bamboo fencing, minuscule streams and plants completely everywhere. The pool is fabulous; huge, rambling around corners with large rocks in piles around the edges. Special mention of Viagoa.com which gave us a good deal... More

We stayed in Pousada Tauma for 5 nights and we loved every second of it. It is gorgeous, peaceful and intimate. The food is delicious, it's beach private, and the service and approach very personal. Why only 4 out of 5 stars, may you ask? Well, the only reason is that we think it is slightly overpriced. The whole experience... More

My wife and I spent last weekend at Pousada Tauma and after reading the reviews we had very high expectations. We were not disappointed. Neville and Mathew were incredibly gracious.
