A 17th-century Indo-Portuguese heritage mansion in North Goa. This nine-room boutique hotel features a tranquil courtyard, lush gardens, and a serene pool. Perfect for travelers seeking historic charm on a budget. The hotel is a bit scruffy, but for the price that’s understandable.
Staff operate on their own delightfully relaxed timeline - think of it as forced meditation. The heritage status means some areas wear their age like a badge of honor (or slight dishevelment). Beach-seekers need wheels - you're 10 minutes from sand and surf. Skip Little Siolim unless traffic noise is your preferred meditation soundtrack. Mother-of-pearl windowpanes and shell-lime walls are conversation starters, but the minibars are conversely nonexistent. This is good for budget travellers, but wasn't quite good enough to make our top India hotels list even at the bargain prices.
Fancy the VIP treatment? Book with us, and we’ll make it happen. Early check-in, late check-out? Sorted. Free breakfast? Of course. F+B voucher? We’ll work on it. Room upgrade? Probably.
It’s all about who you know, and with our FORA partnership, you’re always in the inner circle. We’ll confirm what perks we’ve arranged before you ever pay.
Tucked into a genuine Goan village, flanked by local life and the Chapora River, far from tourist trinkets.

Food + Drink On-site surprises
Home cooking that puts "home" first, "cooking" a close but unhurried second
Dining happens courtyard-side where ceiling fans wage war against humidity. The kitchen operates on notice-required basis - spontaneous snackers beware. Fresh-caught seafood features heavily, from pomfret to mussels, while the afternoon tea appears like clockwork at 4:30. Breakfast swings both Continental and Indian ways, and the three-course set dinners are worth planning your day around. Just remember: in this 300-year-old mansion, patience isn't just a virtue - it's a requirement.
