This was an absolutely brilliant experience. We've always wanted to visit Goa in the rains and ended up choosing Postcard Hideaway Netravali. Is the stay and food expensive? It is. Is it worth the cost? Absolutely. The service was brilliant, on par with (if not better than) our experience with Oberoi. The food was very different and something we did not tire off even after 3 nights there. But aside from this, what sets Postcard apart is their commitment to aspects like anytime check in / checkout and anytime breakfast. Although this may appear small, they are absolutely liberating when it comes to planning a holiday. We arrived at around 8.30am and had no issues checking in. Similarly, our breakfast timing was also varied, anywhere from 8am to almost noon (and they had absolutely no issues with it). Smaller touches were also great, including a take-home pouch for toiletries (lovely toiletries as well). Were there any aspects of improvement? Absolutely. Food service was slow, even at the restaurant. Not a deal breaker, but it can be agonizing, waiting 30 to 45 mins for our food and drinks after ordering. Also, menu options were a tad limited but you could order stuff like pizzas etc and they would make it for you even if it was off-menu (we didnt try that). On that aspect, the GM promised that they were expanding the menu soon. TLDR: gem of a place with very secluded rooms and great service, tasty food and awesome differentiators which will make us re-examine any five star stays we do in the future. Will definitely be on the lookout for Postcard properties in the future. Cons: Pricy stay and food / drinks.
