Park Hyatt Goa Resort & Spa

Down here at Arossim Beach in Cansualim, things are usually moving pretty fast. This is the actual Park Hyatt Goa Resort & Spa. Being right by the water means there is always sand getting into places it shouldn't be, and the salt air definitely does a number on the building. We spend a lot of time just maintaining the place. It’s a big property, and there’s always a leak to fix or a garden area that needs trimming back because the tropical plants grow like crazy. Our staff is mostly local people from around Goa 403712 who have been working here for years. It’s a lot of walking back and forth between the rooms and the main areas. During the peak season, it gets incredibly hectic and we are all on our feet for hours. Then when it rains, it really pours, and we have to scurry around making sure everything is shut tight. It is a beautiful spot, don't get me wrong, but running a resort is just a lot of physical labor and logistics. We don’t really sit around looking at the sunset much. Most of the time we’re checking the kitchen supplies or making sure the pool is clean. It’s a regular job for us, just happens to be in a place where people come for their holidays. We’ve got our routine down and we just get on with it every day without too much fuss.
