We are a spanish retired couple that we travel with our car from Spain to India and then around the world We have traveled through Africa, South... read more America and Europe. For our experience the lovely Konkan Trip Beach Resort is a perfect place Now we spend a few days here. Amit is a superb host and his team very friendly. They beyond to ensure we have a confortable stay and the food is tasty. Great place in front of the beach . We recommend to all overlanders!

  I was told about this place by a long time friend and we planned a 3 day motorcycle trip to explore the Konkan coast with KonkanTrip Beach Resort as our... read more base. The moment we arrived we were guided onto the beach to reach the property which was an experience by itself, greeted with a welcome drink and shown our room which was already cooled. That was a clear indication of the level of attention Amit and his team pay towards guest experience and the hospitality that was to follow for the rest of our stay. The rooms were neat, well equipped with air conditioning, tv and strong wi-fi. The view of the sea right in front of you, hill which curves around the property and the beach is terrific. The food was excellent and authentic Konkan coastal flavours with a lot of care gone into sourcing the freshest seafood catch each morning, the most local ingredients from the area and each meal was memorable. What struck me most is how much attention and care has gone into every small aspect of the guest experience and how out of the way Amit and the staff would go to ensure a great experience. Ideal place for family stays too.

  I had booked this resort for one night in Feb end 2019. Had taken help of reviews and photos on TripAdvisor to do so but to my surprise, the pics... read more turned out pretty old.

When we reached the resort, there was a construction going on between the resort and the beach... thus the view is not same as one sees in the pics.

The rooms seemed refurbished but they were unclean with dirty floors and some sort of pungent smell !

The bathroom was used and stinky....

The gentleman who had come along to show us the room mentioned that the rooms were not clean as the resort was on beach and the earlier guests had made the place a mess.... guess he was not aware that all seaside beach resorts face similar problems but still take efforts to keep the place clean.

We decided to leave the place immediately and let go off the advance paid....

Overall, not a well managed or well placed place and hence this review !

  It was nice staying at the property. The place is just infront of beach. Awesome location. Enjoy sunset everyday. The food was good. Swaroop and Shubham who was working there... read more was too good and friendly. All the staff was courteous. Love the homely feeling there

  We stayed at KonkanTrip Beach Resort a week ago and it was a very memorable experience.

A little about the host/owner
• Amit was extremely receptive to our needs. He... read more made sure that our culinary preferences were taken care of.
• He has tried his best to make his resort more environmentally friendly by incorporating herbal toiletries, rainwater harvesting, solar heater etc.
• Hires locals to help him run the resort. you can see a high level of respect when he interacts with them.
• The last cyclonic storm devastated the approach road and a bit of the resort, it also threw back tons of garbage that people throw in the sea... Amit without the assistance of the local authorities has tried his best to clean up the beach himself and by hiring a JCB to help consolidate the rubbish so that it can be handled by local rag pickers. He’s trying to ensure that the surroundings are favorable to nesting sea turtles.
• You'll see him tirelessly working from 6:30am to 11:45pm ensuring that guests are comfortable.
• He is fluent in English, Marathi and Hindi and is a great conversationalist.
