Well if you know Goa, then it's been the same for us for the past 14 years - no improvement on dumped rubbish, some areas are worse.
Entertainment in Candolim, is basically DIY !! not much going on, other than eating drinking and having a laugh/chat with others - karaoke in a few places and the odd quiz or musician in some bars.
Beach is getting better due to the removal of the grounded oil tanker River Princess (more space, not as rough with sea - but still dangerous, and still needs to be cleaned more than it is now)
14 years ago we 1st stepped into Goa and thought what the hell is this dump !! something that all 1st timers say.. We have never looked back - LOVE IT LOVE IT !!!

this is Goa so cleanliness in the resort is not something that really merits a score!
Entertainment is based around bars and restaurants, varying from live music to karaoke with occasional quizes or bingo. Fairly low key stuff and not for the party animals.
The beach is wide and deep with good sand and is kept fairly clean but the sea can be a bit ferocious.
Lots of eateries on the beach and plenty of sunbeds.

Resort is very dirty in places (rubbish dumped everywhere) but it was getting to the end of the season and that's fairly normal.
Loads of bars & restaurants within walking distance and a short taxi ride (less than Rp 100) in the area. Most notably were The Bistro (inside Sunset Resort; Rising Waves (near the footy pitch): Tom & Nicky's Haven (just round the corner near the elephant shop): The Stone House (near Victor Exotica hotel. Worse place we went to was Calamari shack near Santana Beach Resort - massively over priced and not that nice. Shame because it used to be good value and good food.
Try the Saidutt Cafe opposite Ice N Spice - the food is unreal and cheap as chips - wasn't ill once although the place doesn't look the best

We found it to be quieter this year for some reason especially in the week it livened up come the weekend.The beach was quite clean for a change, the beach was quiet because of the 10 sunbed to each shack business 2 days without beach sellers was heaven.

We found the beach alot cleaner this time round,although there was the 10 sunbed rule going on mind you it was quiet no beach sellers for 2 days it was heaven.The town of candolim we found quite in the week the weekends livened up a bit but not the ususal candolim that i was used to.The streets still had rubbish lying all over the place,and the taxi drivers were a pain as usual.

Candolim has many restaurants & we did not visit 1 where we had any symptoms of 'deli belly'.
There are many places to visit - just a short taxi ride away -
There are many more beach shacks then there were twelve years ago and the owners are very friendly and obliging to their regular customers.
These people work very hard to help make your holiday enjoyable.

Candolim is a busy, vibrant resort with a huge selection of restaurants, cafes and shops.There are lots of shacks to choose from on the beach too.
We don't use the beach at Candolim and prefer to go to Morjim each day where it is quieter and the sea is shallow and calm

Love Candolim having visited now every year for the past 10 years. Spent most of our time on the beach at Lawrencio's shack, the boys there really look after you.
Plenty of lovely eating places and entertainment if you want it.

What can I say, I loved Candolim and want to go back, very varied for food etc and just a lovely place
The beach is beautiful although there are lots of traders just say a polite no and they will leave you alone.
