Casa Sapiem
About the home
Casa Saipem is imaginatively furnished with a mix of antique and contemporary furniture. There are four beautifully decorated and furnished air-conditioned bedrooms all with individually designed en suite bathrooms and an extremely large airy open plan sitting/dining room with a wall of glass doors looking on to the river.
The accommodation is on two floors, unusually there is an external staircase leading to the first floor where there are two bedrooms and a large covered terrace overlooking the garden and pool. This design makes the villa ideal for a group of friends or a family with teenagers who may want to keep different hours.
Whilst the interior of the house is delightful you will find the two large furnished covered terraces, the lovely shady lawned garden and the swimming pool and surrounding sunbathing terrace will be where most of your time will be spent.
Two drivers with cars means that everyday you have the freedom to visit a different beach and in the evenings sample the many restaurants. Shopping is easy too – with the driver to help with where to go and what to buy. Enjoy a touch of luxury with your own personal driver (and let someone else cope with the confusing traffic and racetrack rules of the road). There is also a watchman to make sure the property is secure.
This property is ideal for families and friends alike who wish to relax and soak up the Goan ambience. The location is a veritable paradise for anglers, bird watchers and nature enthusiasts.

The Goa / West India / Goa region


Goa, on the west coast of India, has over 100 Kilometres of coastline divided between secluded bays and golden sandy beaches lapped by the warm Arabian sea. Between October and April there is unbroken sunshine with temperatures that rarely drop below 91F. The pace of life is relaxed. You can spend your evenings enjoying a sunset walk along the beach or a stroll through the street markets in safety.
Although most people come to Goa to relax and unwind there is more to Goa than just its fabulous beaches. Here are a few ideas of what Goa has to offer.
The Portuguese colonised Goa for 450 years and this unique blend of Portuguese and Indian culture is evident in its architecture, mix of religions, cuisine and social structure. There are the colonial old quarters, the magnificent Mansion Houses built at the height of the Portuguese rule and Old Goa, the old capital, built as a testament to the Portuguese wealth and power. There are wildlife sanctuaries, over 400 different species of birds, market towns, a famous flea market which attracts sellers from all over India, designer shops and why not come at Christmas and the Easter Carnival and enjoy some real Goan-style dances. The exuberant Hindu festivals of Divali and Holi are celebrated with as much enthusiasm by this multi-cultural and well-integrated society.
We want to show people that there are many interesting "things to see". Above all experience Goa by being out and about. Early morning and late afternoon are perfect times for catching that magical rural scene of bullock cart and driver ambling along country lanes or the water buffaloes having their well deserved mud baths. Watch the sun rise over the river Sal, stand at Chapora harbour and select fish for that evening's meal, fresh from the boats, go to a village festival or Zatra and most of all, meet the people who are fun loving, generous and genuinely want you to have a great holiday.
The Candolim / Saipem area
Saipem, a hamlet of Candolim, is only 10 minutes drive from the beaches of Candolim and Sinquerim but a world away from the daily hustle and bustle of the tourist belt. This sleepy hamlet has long been ignored by tourists who have simply passed through en route to Panjim. Little did they know that a delightful world of slow flowing streams, secret islands, and a haven for bird and wildlife exists a stones throw a way.
A few discerning folk have spotted the beauty of this area and now a small number of holiday homes are scattered amongst the coconut trees along the banks of this slow moving tributary of the Mandovi River.
In addition to the river there are also open field and woodland habitats where you can get addicted to trying to identify the numerous birds that can be seen there.

Guestbook for Casa Sapiem
The Toogood family Jan 2007
Excellent accommodation, lovely setting. Cornelius and drivers very helpful.
Our fortnight at the villa has been wonderful, Lazyday’s have been very good and helpful.
Brodie & Gomes Family - London, England
We came here for a week in the search for a holiday of a life time for our mum’s 60th birthday and that is what we had!
Villa is fantastic and all the staff so friendly and helpful. Service is great and everything kept clean.
Drivers were very helpful and always punctual and reliable. Thank you Amar & Pravin. Thanks also to Cornelius & Nilesh for looking after us so well.
Also thanks to Sue for being so helpful.
The spice plantation is a great experience, we didn’t have a bad meal the whole week – Satkar in Panjim for a very cheap authentic meal. I-95, A Reverie and After 7 all in Calangute for more expensive western food Also get the boat from Amigos to come to the bottom of the garden to take you across the river for great fish!!

We had a wonderful week at the property. It is relaxing and the standard of the property is excellent. Lazydays is an outstanding holiday company in terms of the quality of service from the moment of first enquiry via the website through to the visits from Sue during the stay. We will definitely return for another trip.

How to calculate your holiday price.
This property is available for rent for a minimum period of one week.
For part weeks thereafter the rate is calculated on a pro rata basis. Therefore a booking for ten days will be calculated at 1 and 3/7th weeks.
Special extended stay discounts during certain periods are available. Please enquire for details.
Where a letting period spans two pricing bands the cost is calculated by applying the pro rata weekly rate per pricing band E.g. 1 week 12th to 19th march = 3 days @ Standard rate + 4 days @ Mid rate
If any week includes either the night of the 31st December, please add the New Year supplement to the Peak rate for that week.
