Located on the outskirts of Baga, the quiet part of this strip of beach. Calangute with it's hustle & bustle is 10 minutes further south.

Further details indoors:
The pool is located in private tropical gardens, which are well maintained.
There is no BBQ area.
Sun loungers are available. The pool is shared with all owners, but seldom used as other owners reside overseas or in other Indian cities.
Thus there is an exclusive air about the premises.
Satellite TV has numerous channels to view if you have to get out of the sun for a while! We encourage guests to leave books, so reading material should always be available.
A small safe is located in the main bedroom.
The mezzanine or upper bedroom is not air-conditioned and can get very hot. Free standing fans are supplied. Because of the spiral staircase we strongly suggest that children under 11 tears should not sleep in the mezzanine bedroom.

A maid will assist at nominal cost with shopping if needed. You must remember that this is India; you may be subject to power cuts, mossies & non-European standards.
The apartment is one of only eight, none of which are used as residential homes, thus the use of the pools area is limited to owners/renters. Guests may bring upto a max. of 4 visitors for the pool use. This is strictly enforced for safety & security reasons.

The Goa / West India / Goa region


Goa is a tropical paradise with the following wonderful places to visit!
* Arvalam Waterfalls * San Jacinto island * The Azad Maidan * Lady Of The Immacula * Reis Magos Fort * Fort Aguada & Candolim* Mapusa Market * Maem Lake * Arvalem Caves * Lamgau Caves * Churches, Chapels * Terekhol Fort., *Margao* *Old Goa*, * Panjim*, *Ponda*, *Vasco-de-Gama* Chapora Fort* Bird sanctuary on Chorao Island.
Beaches In Goa, close by: * Calangute * Chapora * Vagator , Sinquerim, Anjuna & Candolim. Arambol and Mandrem are North of Baga.
Note that the seas can be dangerous and usually witout life guards.
The climate in Goa is relaxed and lovely. Beaches are the best in Goa in the winter months between October and March. This is also the time Goa is most frequented by tourists. The weather during this period is amazingly pleasant.
Summers are from April to May, and it can be very hot and humid, though being in the coastal region, the gentle sea breeze is a welcome soother.
Monsoon months are from June to September. This is the season when the weather is really cool and the hill and the countryside are lush green. It is an ideal time to be in Goa if you want to "dance in the rain" or just want to sit and relax. Not all shops and restaurants are open during this period, as there are few tourists at this time. A boon if you want life at a little less hectic....my time of the year!!
Languages : English, Konkani, Marathi, Hindi and Portuguese plus a lot of different European ones!!
