Attendants are actually the off-duty coach attendants of Mandovi/Konkankanya.
Are these same as the retiring room? If not can these be booked online?
No this cannot be booked online. This is a waiting lounge, not a retiring room.

Update: The AC Lounge is still being maintained well. The charges have now increased: Rs 50 for the first two hours, an additional Rs 40 for an additional two hours and two more hours would cost you a total of RS 130.
Its better to have food in the station than outside the station.
1. Which PF side of MAO should I get out through? - I always went to the main side (PF 1), thats where the action is - prepaid taxi, agents offering tours / hotels, scooters, rental taxis etc. Cabs may be cheaper on PF 4 side, but I am not sure if they have a stand there or if you will have to hail a taxi from the road.
2. KTC services: Once you get to KTC stand, you might find various decent local buses (direct/via) to Palolem or Cancona. But the stand is quite away from MAO - around 2 kms. You would need a rikshaw ride to bus stand which might cost you in excess of 100-150 (30-50 rs if...

You can get ample prepaid taxis from Madgaon junction. It will be quite expensive compared to the fare for similar distance in any other state. But there is little other choice apart from taking a unreliable public bus. South Goa's famous Palolem beach is around 35 kms from MAO, so expect a one way fare of 1200-1500 at the lower side. If one hails a cab from the road, he will charge a similar amount - especially if the destination is one of the tourist properties.
One PURE VEG south Inian Restaurant available outside Platform 4 (at a walking distance of 2/3 minutes).
I found good food there.
