ManishRating, 5 stars1 week ago
The whole experience was great. Farukh and team was efficient, and supported us brilliantly at the stay. We had two cars and they supported parking for both One consideration, the access key, there was only one, it made it a tad inconvenient for our group to move out and about individually. If something could be done about that. A small, maybe insignificant, but in the common bathroom noticed a cobweb and spiders. A slight oversight or just the weather allowing quick house development by the critters.

NikoletaRating, 5 stars18 months ago
Patricia and her husband are very kind people. We just felt like at home from beginning. Appartment was clean. We expected that we will be in 5 min walk on the beach but it takes longer. We had nice terrace where we enjoyed our coffee and breakfast. We got every morning tasty breakfast from the husband of Patricia. There was also a cleaning service every day. The owners are very kind and helpful people. The accommodation is in the quiet area but near to the shops, markets. We enjoyed our stay.

Superb 1-2bhk self-catering eco 5star-2 mins beach

BryanRating, 5 stars2 months ago
An excellent stay with two English gents Nigel and Grant who have the hospitality game down to a fine art, i stayed for a month and can honestly say this was an outstanding apartment, the meticulous attention to detail was quite astounding , never have i seen so many kitchen gadgets, top chefs would feel at home here . The bathrooms were spotless , water pressure excellent and constant hot water, soft towels which i loved, the beds have real quality mattresses the kind you just sink into and drift .There is a great water filtration system which gives clean drinking and cooking water time after time , a full size fridge , a four plate gas cooker and a seperate oven for heating and roasting, The wifi was as much as 95mbps way more than i needed and would be excellent for people who work remotely and it was constant . The washing machine was a nice touch, wash in the evening, dry in the morning so simple to use. This property and it's hosts rightly deserve" 5 STAR STATUS" , BEST OF LUCK

Private studio with AC, kitchen, large rooftop

KalkiRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Jay and his partner are truly amazing hosts. They were very accommodating, helpful in all regards and are great people overall. The place was packed with all necessities and some, pretty much anything you would need for the stay. The stairs to the terrace were pretty steep and mosquitoes did like to bite but the view from the terrace was great. One thing to point out was that there is little to no natural sunlight coming into the room from outside and the room with lights off was pitch black, so sleep was always deep and mornings were always slow. Would recommend the stay for the amazing location and awesome hosts ;)

Exclusive oasis by the sea

StephanieRating, 5 stars5 months ago
If you want a beach getaway this is the place for you! This unassuming property is a gem - built around a beautiful coconut plantation you walk through the palms and onto the beach. It is perfect for a family gathering or group of friends as the bedrooms are separate and private. Aside from the amazing location what stood out were the host and his team - nothing was ever too much trouble! The food they prepared for us was delicious and we loved eating on the beach at our own private table. We barely left the property as there was lot’s to do - enjoy the pool, the beach, pool table, take a nap listening to the sea breeze through the palms. We also thank the team for being so accommodating to our one year old son making sure we had everything we needed for him. We look forward to our next stay!

Easy Breeze 1BHK farm stay

KhushalRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a great stay. It is located in a very peaceful area and surrounded by many trees. Suril is a great host and very responsive. Reaching Ashwem beach takes 7-8 minutes on scooty, mandrem beach takes about 15 minutes on scooty. Many restaurants and cafes on the Main beach road. The air bnb is located little away from the main road and a scooty is recommended to go to the nearby grocery stores. Daily cleaning service is provided free of cost. Overall, it's a great value for the money charged.

Riverview 1bhk Solitude house| Perfect gateway

SaranshRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had such a lovely stay at this hidden gem! The home offers a stunning river view from the balcony—perfect for a peaceful morning coffee or an evening unwind. The space felt incredibly cozy and homely, with thoughtful touches that made it feel like a true home away from home. It's tucked away just enough to offer complete privacy and quiet, yet all the essential amenities are just a short walk away. Whether you're looking to relax or explore the area, this place offers the best of both worlds. Highly recommended!

Romantic Riverfront 2 bhk Cozy Home in North Goa

SiddharthRating, 5 stars4 months ago
I had an amazing experience at this house in Bastora! The house was beautifully decorated and immaculately clean. The host Allison was very attentive and considerate of our needs. She responded to all queries quickly. The host made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The garden is full of trees and flowering plants. One hears birds chirping all day long. The pergola in front garden is perfect for enjoying a morning coffee,reading or working. The river at the back added a unique and peaceful touch. A nice place to watch birds, and if you are lucky, also see the Otters! I highly recommend this place for a relaxing and memorable getaway.

La Mer’ Vue The blue’s ashwe homestay

SurajRating, 5 stars2 months ago
The best thing about this property is it's location. Its right on the beach facing road and all you have to do is walk a few steps and enter the beach. You get a complete view of ocean right from your gallery. As for home, it's nice cozy place which is well maintained and clean. All the amenities function perfectly. Host lipy was very prompt in making sure that our stay is comfortable. She even arranged a small household item when we requested for it. Cheers to her for that. Some improvement could be done in wifi as it as was getting disconnected regularly. Also one needs to know that the place is quite small in size and not as big as it appears in the pictures. Overall it was a comfortable and peaceful stay.

Awesome experience flat was neat and clean on arrival host really helped us out to make a smooth checkin, we stayed for 7 days and no disturbance was from the owner. Apartment is a bit far from main city, but you can always use GoaMiles app for travel by cab. There are some real network issues in the apartment but nevermind until and unless you plan to move permanent. WiFi will come to your rescue..!! You can always order from swiggy for food. Grocery and liquor shops are just walking distance. Stay was value for money.

Nice host. Cozy arrangement. However, there were dogs barking crazily for non-stop 20mins at night which woke everyone up. There’s no hair dryers so better bring your own. After checking out, I found out I left my charger at the Airbnb and the host assisted me to get it back smoothly. Thank you!
