Hidden slice of paradise

10.0

What a little gem of a place! Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of urban Goa, yet so handy to everything. The property was well equipped and we had the most relaxing and comfortable stay. And our hosts were just amazing, it felt like we were staying with family. We're definitely coming back!

Absolutely nothing to not like. It was a home away from home.

Perfect hosts and such a beautiful setting

10.0

Marina & Caitano were the perfect hosts and the whole place has such a relaxed feel to it. Breakfast was perfect and served outside your room. People come back here year after year and I can see why. We will definitely be back!

There was a bit of building work nearby but this should be finished by next year.

Very polite and humble host 😊. It is really like a beautiful place which you actually imagine when you think of your family trip to Goa. Decent size room, living area and small kitchen that makes your longer stays comfortable. well organised.

Great hosts, breakfast & swim pool

9.0

Lovely hosts, very helpful in arranging a taxi for me at the end of my stay. Great breakfast with good choice, even poached eggs cooked perfectly. Lovely swimming pool, which I seemed to have mostly to myself. It’s about 10 minute walk to a quiet beach. Southern Deck is a good restaurant on the beach.

10.0

Chambre spacieuse et propre. Grand salon privé attenant avec un coin cuisine disposant de tout le nécessaire. Grand balcon avec vue sur le jardin. Endroit très calme. Petit-déjeuner très agréable servi dans le jardin. Belle, propre et grande piscine très ensoleillée avec suffisamment de transats. Propriétaires accueillants et aidants. Pour terminer, le centre et la plage sont situés à 10 minutes à pied de l'hôtel. Spacious and clean room with large sitting/living room with kitchen corner with all required equipment. Large balcony overseeing the lovely and quiet garden. Very pleasant breakfast served in the garden. Nice large clean swimming pool allowing to enjoy both sun and shade, with a sufficient number of sunbeds. The owners are both friendly and ready to assist (taxi booking, bicycle rents, yoga, etc). Finally, the guesthouse is ideally located, within a 10mn walking distance from both the beach and the city center.

Rien. Nothing.
