Situated within 1.8 km of Miramar Beach and 13 km of Basilica Of Bom Jesus in Panaji, Vivenda Rebelo offers accommodation with free WiFi and seating area.

The room was spacious with everything you needed like a fridge, a kettle and lots of bottled water. We were able to get our clothes washed for free and breakfast was included at a little restaurant across the road. It was a short walk to the Fontainhas district and in a lovely area near a park. Would definitely recommend!

Felix Homestay Enclave, a property with a garden, is set in Panaji, 1.3 km from Miramar Beach, 1.7 km from Vanguinim Beach, as well as 17 km from Basilica Of Bom Jesus.

Felix and Babu were very helpful. They were always able to help me with my needs and helped me feel at home. I felt Felix was very caring and considerate. Felix Homestay is good value for money and a nice place to stay. It is also a little out of the city centre so it is quite and less chaotic than the centre. It is a 10 minute walk to the beach.

Offering mountain views, The Narrow Way Edward Guest House is an accommodation located in Candolim, less than 1 km from Candolim Beach and 2.2 km from Sinquerium Beach.

The room was extremely clean. There was a fridge, kettle, bowls, plates and cutlery provided. The best thing was the view of the countryside from the lovely balcony. The property was also in a great location, just a short walk to the beach, shops, restaurants snd bus stop. The owner was so helpful and I could contact him via watsapp any time I had any questions. I highly recommend the property and look forward to staying again.

Located within 700 metres of Sinquerium Beach and 1.3 km of Candolim Beach, Marbella Guest House features rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Sinquerim.

Location - perfectly situated at the end of a residential road close to the beach and shops and the fort. Accommodation - tastefully decorated and everything you would need. We stayed in the garden room which is one of the smaller rooms and in hindsight we were pleased with this room as it was plenty spacious, but a bit cozier and very comfortable. Food - plenty of choice in the included breakfast offer, all freshly prepared with quality ingredients. We ate dinner there most lights too and there is plenty of choice and all the dishes were very well prepared from scratch and really tasty. We loved the xacuti and also had tiger prawns and pomfret one of the nights too which was delicious!! Staff - Sajjid has a great team working for him and they are all excellent in their roles front and back of house. Particular mention to Motthi and Pasquale who were just fab. Cleanliness and comfort - exceptionally clean and everything working as it should. We had a problem with our AC one of the nights and were given the option to move to another room to sleep with the promise of the AC being fixed the following day. Which it was. Safety and security - there is a safe in the rooms. Being located at the end of the residential road also made it feel safer and there is a security guard on duty overnight. And of course there are the resident dogs to add to the security detail, special mention to Sophie dog and Judy dog. We felt very safe and secure. Overall we were so pleased we chose to stay at the Marbella guest house and would thoroughly recommend it to those seeking peace and tranquility in a charming setting with a team of friendly staff that genuinely care about ensuring you enjoy your stay.

Located 800 metres from Calangute Beach, Empire Guest House offers accommodation with a balcony.

I had an excellent stay at this guest house in Goa! The area is safe and peaceful, making it perfect for a relaxing getaway. The property is incredibly neat and well-maintained, reflecting the care and attention of the hosts. Speaking of the hosts, they were amazing—friendly, approachable, and always ready to help. This place truly offers high value for money, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting.

    We loved the location of the guesthouse in the heart of the historic town of Panjim. The hosts Jeanine and Clifford were lovely, made us feel at home and gave us valuable tips for sightseeing. The room was comfortable: the AC was efficient but quiet, we had plenty of hot water for the shower. The house is surrounded by a beautiful garden, there is a pleasant terrace on the roof. We would definitely want to stay there again next time when we shall go to Goa.

    This is a lovely homestay in a quiet residential neighbourhood (so Serene indeed) but also convenient for central Panaji. The room is comfortable and spacious. Having a full size fridge/freezer and kettle is great. What really makes it is the host family who are so welcoming and helpful. Full of advice and happy to help organise things. There's a very regular and cheap bus from the stop nearby straight into town and the bus station or you can take cheap taxis.

    Great location, 3-minute walk to our favourite bakery, Padaria Prazares. Excellent communication from host. Well-stocked kitchen (we didn’t use it but it would be good for longer stays if needed). Quiet with car parking.

    Budget local guesthouse in a good location. It's under 10 minutes walk to Fontainhas heritage sights. Room was clean. Owner was friendly and helpful. A kettle and coffe/tea were provided. Room was good value (about 2000 rupees per night) for the location. There are boutique shops & restaurants nearby. I would consider this guest house for a good value stay very close to the Fontainhas heritage area. This is good value option for a room in this area. Recommended.

    Lovely period guesthouse in a quiet leafy area close to the river and a walk or taxi to central Panjim. Our room had a large terrace and in fact was a private apartment with fridge and tea making facilities. Our host Deric was incredibly helpful both before our arrival and during our stay. Complimentary breakfast at the restaurant opposite offered a good choice of dishes.

    The hotel is in a quiet cul-de-sac in the Portuguese district, with a famous bakery round the corner and no traffic noise even though it's handy to everything. Roy is a great host, ready with advice and a useful map. Breakfast was a different Keralan speciality each day - you are encouraged to try things. The stuff you need - wifi, hot water etc - was all working well despite the age of the building. It doesn't look modernised (although it obviously has been, to a degree) and is very atmospheric.

    Villa Khatun Guesthouse made me feel at home. The house is well located, close to the city but quiet (you can hear the birds). The room was clean and tidy. There were complimentary tea, coffee, water bottles and biscuit packets :) Alim is a great host, helpful, friendly and have great recommendations. Don’t hesitate in booking this place. I recommend 100%!!

    Jeanette is a very charming host, her guest house is a beautiful traditional building in a great location. Tasty breakfasts are available for a small price, and there was lots of help and advice offered to us whenever we needed.
