The really northern parts of Goa, have a lack of organised accommodation
This is because the lack of clear ownership titles in this part of Goa.
Thus most organised accommodation is in North Goa, about 40-50 Mins away near Anjuna and then further down towards Baga
There you have the W ( good 5 star), Westin (not so good 5 Star) and the evergreen Taj Holiday village and the decidedly aged, and slightly run-down Taj Fort Aguada
To find good places , you have to dig down.
You have some options in the interiors, PostCard Hotel, Moira, being a top pick, 15Kms, 30 mins away
Pretty, Quant, Rustic, with the just the right touches of luxury, Post card, Moira, is an excellent option if you want to be away from the beach.
The price would be around 15,000/night
(Another similar option is Siolim house. Unfortunately, not great client feedback on this)
Then you have the Balle Villas. 3 / 4 bedroom, TOP of the line villas. Some of the best in Goa
They are very expensive, (Think 1 lakh for 4 bedrooms/night) but they are amongst the best villa options in Goa
Then you have a couple of 4 star villa options
Both would cost between 13-15K/night. Boutique, but not luxury. IF you are ok, with being closish to the beach and certain compromise on luxury component, these are decent ( but not great) options
The pick of the options, especially if you want ON the beach( or at least very near the beach) is Anahata Retreat on the Ashwem beach very near Morjim
It is a superb, undiscovered option, with rustic and “rural” cottages, villas and suites. Close to the beach and close to the nature is what you get and to top it all excellent food.
Price is the same 13-15K bracket
Recommened!
