Appartamento ottimamente attrezzato (camera da letto, cucina e bagno con tutto quello che serve), in tranquilla posizione nel vecchio quartiere portoghese. I padroni di casa sono molto gentili e disponibili; sono venuti a prenderci alla stazione degli autobus e ci hanno chiamato un taxi. Ci hanno offerto colazione e frutta.

It was really an amazing experience staying at the Charming Cottage. We arrived later in the evening and the room was just as we saw in the pictures. Very appealing very comfy and cosy. Having had a great sleep we wer given a breakfast treat by Nasim which was just so delicious. She and her husband are very down to earth and would surely get out of their way to make u feel home. Definitely a place to stay in.

Nice place to stay... Nasim and Allim were very kind and helpful.

The family's hospitality is faultless. All the reviews are a proof. Alim & Nasim are always there to help. The house is a cozy little setting in the midst of the famous old Panjim city. Its got a bedroom, a small dining area, a bathroom and an open veranda, just as pictured. The room is without air conditioning, but you will hardly notice is the heat. All necessary supplies like soap, shampoos, water, tea, coffee, snacks etc. are loaded in the room. The bathroom has running hot water and a Jet spray(which by the way should always get an extra star rating by default). Breakfast is on the house :) and we mostly requested for eggs and bread. Alim would always keep us company during breakfast, chatting mainly about Goa and the things to do there. their little son, Aszlan is a handful :). The family invited us over for a Sunday lunch since we requested for some home cooked food. Nasim cooked up a great meal (Prawns Biryani & Fish cutlets). We had a chance to meet and talk to Alim's entire family. Well all in all the trip was fun and the stay.....special !

My stay at Nasim & Alim's place was more wonderful and joyful than I could have imagined possible. I stayed at their cottage for a full two months and Alim especially went out of his way to facilitate my long stay. He bought a microwave, fridge, and cooler and added shelves to the bathroom and hooks in the room so that I could have all the amenities possible. It became so comfortable for me that it really felt like my own little home in Panjim. The cottage itself is very lovely. It is cozy, has a very comfortable bed, and the kitchenette is a nice little space. You wake up to the sound of chirping birds and the sight of Alim's lovingly tended garden. Breakfast is served outside in a pretty verandah, making for lovely quiet mornings. The location of the cottage cannot be beaten for a stay in Panjim. It is in the prettiest, most quaint part of the lovely city. Walking through the charming streets of Mala and Fontainhas with the gorgeous verdure of the Altinho hill overlooking the neighborhood is such a happy experience. You're walking minutes from some of the best restaurants in the city as well as the cutest cafe. More than all these virtues however, the greatest thing about a stay at this cottage is meeting these lovely hosts. The entire Muzaver family is warm and welcoming and ever ready to help. Alim's brother came to my rescue when I freaked out about a spider, his sister Rabiya facilitated my work at the archives where I was doing my research, and Nasim cooked me numerous yummy meals. But most of all, Alim is the best host imaginable. He is completely devoted to his cottage and guests, passionate about his gardening, and is always looking for suggestions to improve the already excellent experience he provides. When I miscommunicated my arrival time, he woke up at 4:30AM and made the cottage available for me without being grumpy in the slightest. And when I had a medical emergency, he picked me up from the hospital. He's relentlessly cheerful, friendly, always fun to talk to, and ever ready to help, even with the most off-beat requests. And he brings breakfast every morning and brightens up dull mornings. I cannot recommend highly enough a stay at this lovely cottage!

Алим и Назим это прекрасные и великолепные люди! Мы считаем,что нам очень повезло начать знакомство с Индией именно с этих людей! по прилету,они поселили нас намного раньше заявленного времени(самолет привез нас в 6 утра ,а заселение было в 10),помогли оформить карточки мобильного интернета и телефонии, радушно и вкусно угощали нас завтраками(было предложено несколько на выбор),в комнатах всегда были свежие цветы!Каждый день нам в дом Алим приносил холодную воду в бутылках))Назим всегда заботилась о свежих полотенцах и сама предложила постирать нам вещи! Алим везде возил меня на своем скуктере,очень круто и весело! В доме по приезду было свежее постельное белье,свежие полотенца,разные гигиенические средства,а также фрукты,чай,кофе и вкусные снеки и шоколадки! Ребята уделяли нам кучу своего свободного времени и помогали во всех начинаниях! Домик очень уютный и милый,есть дворик,где прекрасно ужинать и завтракать!В доме всегда есть горячая и холодная вода,тихий холодильник,маленький чайник,телевизор с англоязычными каналами! Ребята отлично общаются на английском языке! Рекомендую всем,от всей души!!!)))

My ol' folks were moving to Goa for good and amidst the chaos of relocation from Bombay, Nasim and Alim's home proved to be an oasis of calm. Not only is the house charming, quaint, cosy and very clean, it is a reflection of the hosts themselves who went out of their way to help my parents when they needed it the most - everything from helping hail autos to driving them down in the absence of public transport, preparing meals, providing directions to wherever they needed to go, assisting them in every way possible at home and with chores as my folks focused on using this time to manage the relocation - these guys were incredible. Thanks so much Nasim and Alim for being the super hosts you deserve to be. Hope I get a chance to meet you guys sometime!

It's a nice quiet and clean place . The hosts give a very personal affectionate touch , which is what I really loved about the place. Lot of private open garden space to chill out . Over all a beautiful experience and hopefully a lasting friendship .

very nicely build villa. chef is very friendly and food made by him is very delicious. baga and anjuna beach is at 15 min distance from car. villa have all kind of facilities as mentioned by host.

Its a beautifully made villa.very neat and clean.Staff was great ,always willing to help.Food made by chef was awesome.Enjoyed every bit of our stay. Every thing was upto mark.Would visit again.

Not worth it at all. If you want to enjoy, book some other villa. From location to service, everything is worst.

The host canceled this reservation 235 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

beautifuly made villa. everything was perfect.Staff was very co operative and humble. Must mention the place was very clean and upto the mark. Thanks to the owner for always being there throught our stay. P.S. Chef makes excellent food.

This place is very pleasant and calm and is close to Candolim beach and there are many restaurants n shops nearby. Thay are a great host, very friendly in nature. Good place for a family.

Farooq is such a wonderful host and helped us with finding the place and getting to the airport. The place he lives is a bit inconvenient with public transportation; however, an easy way to solve it is to just rent a moped. The place was very clean and and the host provided anything that we needed. Would definitely recommend this place.

It was a very nice and pleasant experience about our stay Mr. Farooq's place. The location was perfect for roaming around central and north goa. The host was very much co-operative. He provided us relaxation with the check out time by providing us duration for extra stay. It was a nice experience.

Good location, friendly and helpful host and enough privacy even though one doesn't have the entire flat. We enjoyed our stay there and would recommend it if you want something between town and the beaches.

Family was very nice and our brief stay left a good feeling. Farooq is very helpful he would receive us even at 4am and also help us rent a bike.

Penha de França is a town in Bardez, Goa. It is north of the capital Panjim in North Goa. It takes its name from the patroness of its church, Nossa Senhora da Penha de França which it shares with Penha de França in Lisbon. Nestled in the center of this community is a quite and comfortable home we chose to inhabit for our limited duration adventure in goa. The place is centrally located well furnished and has a rutic charm to it. The night view from the balcony is quintessential. The view of the mandovi river with the lustre of a scattered few floating casinos is breathtaking. Be it for adventure or for relaxation this place is highly recommended if you want to stay in north goa.

Residential area, had a pleasant stay!

very warm welcome, faroop hosted us to the bestest; double value for the buck we spent

Good place for stay.... Warm and friendly welcome. Do not follow the location given in map... It's incorrect

good place except that we have to walk upstairs ... very near to the beach and the city ... excellent for a short business trip ...

I stay for a couple of nights in veers flat. He is a nice and friendly host. Every time helpful. Room are big, clean and with a/c. Restroom also clean. Near to the beach and not so far to the city.

Veer is a very special person in the heart of panjim. he will not just wait for you outside his place to welcome you in a very personal way, but he will do also his best to fullfill all your wishes and more! the place is abnormal clean and good situated. i recommend his place for people, who want to meet a very interesting local in goa!

We stayed for a night at Veer's place during our bicycle tour. Everything is as explained in the description. The location is marked in (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) Maps, so it was easy to arrive. Veer was kind enough to help carry some of our luggage to the 3rd floor and let park our bicycles in the flat.

Thank You Veer! It was a comfortable stay. Thank you for the information and being a good host. We had a great time in Goa.

Good Keep it up

The place is really centric, there's a very nice, good cheap and healthy restaurant near by called mr.sheedal also is very close to the popular beaches well known. Panjim its really amazing, Old Goa too you can take a long walk from Caranzalem to Panji its so nice you'll find many shops, coffees, restaurants, markets, etc. In the corner of the flat you can take the bus to anywhere, that is really help full. The place is really nice, very quiet, a/c at the room, some terrace you will find, every door, bathroom, bedroom, pool table,kitchen has a post that tell's you some recommendations, rules, what to do or not Like in a hotel >D For my girl an i Veer was very kind to us anything you doubt or recommend, can help you.

Everithing was great! Veer is a very nice and interesting person. The flat was clean and there was all we need. Good place to stay.

It was an amazing stay and the location of the house was just perfect. Jeetender and mohul were great hosts - we had a wonderful stay at their place. The place is more beautiful than it shows in pictures. Fantastic amenities, well equipped (kitchen, washrooms, etc) and most important cleanliness. Over all a very pleasant stay. Worth every penny.

The place and hosts are amazing. The location of the place is near the beach and you can easily rent scooters nearby. The hosts were very helpful with whatever help we needed. Would definitely recommend it for friend and family.

The 2bhk apartment is professionally managed with all facilities very well maintained. The hosts and staff were very mindful of our comfort and very nice people to interact with. There are many shops and restaurants/bars at walking distance which is great. Candolim beach is walkable from here.

Host was very helpful Property was neat and clean Nearby beach location Hired a cook and food was excellent Apartment was too good and Jeetendarji and Mohul helped us a lot.

Leo was really helpful. He made our stay at Goa a memorable one. The place he owns is very soothing. He helped us right from reaching his place till the time we left. It would probably visit Goa next time just to relax at Serene Waters :) . It was an excellent memory. Thanks Leo :)

A home away from home. A family awaiting to be explored. A beautiful nature complied with the warmth of a family. To make ur stay loving and warm.

The hosts were like one would want to have for a home stay, very warm and amiable. It was indeed a home away from home! Every morning Leo, with his presence during breakfast, made us feel at home. The hosts were always positive to any requests. Jacqueline's cookery dishes were very tasty, whatever she served us. She was also open to ask what we would wish to have for each meal. Even she had something to offer during a fast. The support staff Kanta, Vikas and Raj were very cordial. smiling and quick to offer their services. In the end, after a nice and relaxed stay, we left with a heavy heart; and we recommend Serene Waters to all those who are looking out for a relaxed vacation. Serene Waters with its natural and quiet ambiance, is truly SERENE!

Our stay in Serene Waters was a lovely experience. The entrance to the place is a little awkward, but once you are there, Leo and Jacqueline leave no stone unturned to make you feel comfortable. The riverside was the feature we enjoyed most. Family room was comfortable. Goan breakfast was delicious. Advice about where to go for lunch and dinner was most useful. Energy of Leo is exceptional. The service was superb. The two dogs and ducks add to the atmosphere. Good experience overall. Enjoyed our stay. Would recommend the place. Since the place is a little out of the way, having own transport will be most useful.

If you are in Goa for relaxing and enjoying your time then serene waters is the best place and leo is the best host..

Leo and Jaclyn have a beautiful home and property and themselves wonderful people. A friend and I stayed three nights and really enjoyed the scenery and our hosts hospitality. The wifi was slow and unreliable as I came to learn is the case for almost all of Goa, so not the best place if you need to work online. Overall we really enjoyed our stay!

Leo and his family go above and beyond what you'd expect from a host. He helped us plan our itineraries and notable things to see and do during our stay. His wife Jacqueline makes the BEST food at far better value than anything you'll find in a restaurant. With a pool and the beautiful view and comfortable room we barely wanted to leave the property. Leo's daughter Kelsie even took us out on the water in a paddle boat. Leo and his family took us out to local events 2 out of the 3 nights we were there making us feel like part of the family and giving us a real "locals" experience. If you get a chance to see Leo and his daughter Kenzie perform definitely take them up on it because they were amazing! Would highly recommend anyone to stay here!

Leo was out,But he had very sweetly arranged a cab for my pick from the other Hotel were i was put up. when reach i was a little puzzled to see the entrance of the property. Jacklin,Leo's wife was there to give me a warm greet, and walked me around the property, i instantly felt it was my home for the next 3 days.

First of all I would say Edwin is very nice guy and he is very fast in responding to all your queries before and after the arrival, even edwin personally visited us to ask about anything i may require..location is just fantastic and very close to many beaches, i would recommend everyone stay n enjoy the location... Thx Edwin for your support during my stay

The place is cozy and located centrally very near to the market place, supermarket, eateries, shops etc. Also the venue is at a walkable distance from Candolim Beach and if you would like to visit Sinquerim, CA language or Baga beaches they are not that far. The place is clean well kept and kitchen is equipped with adequate aids to help yourself. I would like to revisit the same place for staying put, one of the best places I have ever stayed at in Goa. Thanks to the hosts Edwin and Mou for making my stay memorable

Great place to stay and reasonably closer to the party locations

We were given a completely different place at Calangute which was not value for money. We were also told that in new place there will be 2 beds but there was only 1 bed and 2 floor mattresses. Neither host nor his caretaker came to meet us, they did send a third person during check-in and check-out only. And also NO DRINKING WATER HAS BEEN SERVED. They asked us to buy mineral waters ourselves.

If you are looking for a spacious room , ok kitchen & bathroom You can book this property This above means paradise studio apartment at Candolim almost within hotel grand alore .. Thanks Edwin for the upgrade to 1 bhk .thanks but no thanks that upgraded property was pathetic ,stinking obsolete . I was really disappointed on reaching to Goa & check in in that upgraded 1bhk . Thankful to Edwin who finally on second day shifted us to the property we really had booked Waisted one of our days in that process .. There is nothing bad in having a tv with workable connection in the property . The cable connection was not working & requested for induction cooker but could not be managed .anyways thanks Edwin for the hospitality . Wish we could have meet you

We had good communication with Edwin and other staff, every time we asked something, mainly arrival and departure. Most of the Goa arriving flights tend to arrive extremely early in the morning, so one should check how to spend the early hours before getting to hotel/apartment. The place was adequate for us, however a bit pricey for the quality - which seems to be a standard feature in every Goa places. The shower/bathroom was ok, but the balcony, with minimal and broken equipment, offered a view to streets (in hotel area) instead of pool (should it even?). The fridge was rather warm, so we couldn't use it for breakfast food storing. The equipment in the kitchen were quite scarse. When you come to Goa, you probably don't plan for staying very much inside, so in that sense everything worked well. The wifi was provided by hotel, and it didn't work during our stay, neither the TV. There was free wifi in almost every nearby restaurant, and despite them being very unpredictable as well, we didn't find this a problem. The hotel pool was in our use, and the hotel staff very friendly. The beach was easily within walking distance, and the supermarket was within 2 mins walking distance. All in all, we found Goa a nice experience, sunny and friendly. Edwin also provided us a superb taxi driver, who communicated very well!

Great location, great communication, place was nice but the 2 nights we were there the resident DJ was playing right out our window, literally screaming in our window till 10pm, it would have been fine but we had to get to bed early on the second night, some communication on this would have been great so we could have chosen a better location for our early flight. Other than this the place was fine.

The stay was very comfortable, the room was clean, the pool and the premises is well maintained. Super market is just outside the premises and most of the restaurants are very close by too. This stay is just 800 mts away from Candolim beach. Though the host Edwin was not available during our stay, he was in touch with us to make sure his boys took care of everything. I would recommend this stay.

It was a great stay. Right from the beginning Prijeeth took care of us and was very thoughtful. The apartment was very clean and well maintained. The staff and service was up to the mark and very courteous

Good place...Good host!!!

Amazing host! Very helpful and co-operative host, great place and quite well connected. Highly recommend this place!

The house was great, and exactly as depicted. It is not too far from Candolim, Calangut and Baga in North Goa. It has a lovely play area/ swimming pool and a gym. The house in itself had two balconies. Since we were there during the monsoons, we really appreciated the fact that one of the balconies was closed by the use of windows and as a result, we were able to use it when it was raining very heavily. About the host -- Rajendra is an absolutely amazing person and sweet host. This was my first experience with AirBnb in India, and I was worried about how good it would be. I was absolutely in awe of how well Rajendra had set up the entire place before we arrived. He was absolutely clear about the house rules and other things that we need to take care of. He also helped us with other things such as renting bikes and taxis during our trips and gave us a few tips of places we could visit. I sincerely thank him a lot for his hospitality. I think that having a good accommodation is absolutely essential if one must enjoy a vacation and we were all really happy Rajendra's accommodation and hospitality.

The apartment is very close to the market area or I would say 5-10 mins to calangute beach. Not secluded. Very nicely maintained with an added bonus of swimming pool. You will get everything required in the apartment with washing machine to electronic gas, to aqua guard etc. My friends along with me really enjoyed in the apt. The apt also have balcony where we had our breakfast. Thanks to Rajendra the host for giving us so much in such economical rate. Surely coming here soon.

We checked in at 2AM in the morning and being a wonderful host Rajendra even helped us to get food at that time of night. The place was clean and everything was in order. Really a place worth staying. Thanks for making our stay a great one.

The apartment is at a very convenient place. Most of the happening places in North Goa are very near. The apartment has all required amenities and falls short of nothing. Raj is Also a really nice host. It was fun staying at his place in Goa. Things were pretty easy n hassle free.

One of the best stays in Goa. Rajdendra was very warm and welcoming and I would definitely recommend this place to everyone. This apartment is not close to crowded places but not very far too from happening places in Goa. Apartment has a beautiful swimming pool and gymnasium. Would always want to stay here in future Wi-fi is one thing that I missed but can do without it. Thank you Raj

Absolutely amazing !! The place is close to almost every tourist spot in North Goa. The swimming pool was also too clean ! I recommend this to everyone.!

The villa is great but we faced a lot of issues on our first day like there was no light in one of the changing rooms, the ACs kept tripping off, there was no cold water coming in one of the washroom's basin, the generator was not switched on till I made a complaint the next day of our check-in, the chef prepared the lunch when we reached there even after informing him that we are having a long flight and will be very hungry when we reach there so prepare the food by then and even the wifi was not working unlike written in this description and also first told that we do not provide wifi until I show the villa manager description page of the villa on the airbnb website. The villa is great but just need some maintenance and commitment from the villa manager as well as caretakers as the manager was not available to inform about the issue and I had to call their Mumbai office. All the issues were fixed the next day when I called up their Mumbai office and told them about all the issues that I faced. I had to go through a lot of trouble on my first day and would recommend you all to check every small thing at the time of check in only to avoid any problem later on.

The villa is absolutely stunning and the views of the river make it worthwhile. It's located in a perfect spot which is serene while you are there but a stone's throw distance from the bustling markets and beaches of the Calangute/Candolim area. The support staff are very helpful and they do a good job with the upkeep of the property. Strongly recommend the place to groups of 8-12 ppl. Way more fun than hotel stay.

I spend 4 days at Sri's flat in Goa, the flat is really nice, clean and offer a fantastic sea view. The air conditioning was really enjoyable during the night and allow me to sleep well. I went on various Airbnb accommodation all over the world and Sri is by far the best host i ever had, he did everything he could to help me feeling like at home and he helped me organising my visit of GOA areas. Without his advices and recommendations i wouldn't have seen so many nice places (I highly recommend Agonda/Palolem/Baga beach as well as visiting a spice farm). Sri cooked for me some amazing indian dish and I won't be able to have a chicken Biryani without remembering my trip to Goa! Thanks Sri for being an amazing host! I highly recommend staying at Sri's place.

Amazing View. Felt more like staying at a friend's place. He helped me with my vehicle rental, fed tasty food and made sure everything was alright.

Srikanth is a great host, His property is awesome has a nice view and situated in posh locality in goa, Everything is same as described in airbnb, he even offered lunch in our stay also and we cooked for dinner as well, he is very friendly host didn't feel that we are staying in stranger place and place is clean has I have seen some reviews from other visitors as it's not clean n all but I haven't face any such issue, Overall nice stay and great property for relaxing stay.

Thanks to Srikanth, had a good stay. It was a weekend well spent. He was a great host, prepares delicious and healthy sambar! He was also generous enough to lend his scooter to us for going around. The only issue which we faced was with the odour/bugs in the room.

It was my first visit to Goa and my first ever solo trip. It was a wonderful stay. The place is exactly like how it is shown in the pics, very beautiful and calm. One can just sit there whole day and listen to the waves. As Dona Paula is quite at the center, it is almost equi distant from both North and South Goa. If you are going for a relaxed trip this is the best place. I hired a two wheeler from nearby place, for which Srikanth helped me to get. (one can also hire a 4 wheeler). So that way, one can go around party, do sight seeing, have all the fun and come back to a place just like home, safe, peaceful, comfortable. As I was travelling alone, I was a little worried about the new place. But Srikanth being a wonderful host and a simply a wonderful person, made sure I was felt comfortable and safe. He guided me about the places I can visit and the routes (as I was driving myself around). Sometimes even called or texted to make sure everything is alright with me when I am outside. He is a great cook, cooked delicious food and fed me during the stay. At the end I can surely say my first ever trip to Goa or my first solo trip became such an amazing experience because of the place I stayed and the charming host.

First experience on airbnb and it was too good. Would like to thank Yogita. She was on the top of everything and ensured that the maid was available for cleaning. Gave us assistance vis-a-vis things to do, places to visit and also cuisine. She was more a friend than host. The place is very good. Close by to Candolim beach and lots of resraurants around the place.

The place was extremely clean & just as it seems in the pictures. Yogita was a great host & was very accommodating with any requests that we had. The place is withen walk able distance to numerous restaurants. The beach is a longer walk but definitely walkable. The place is definitely value for money. The only disappointment was that wifi is not included.

Красивое и тихое место. Очень чисто, вся техника и мебель новая, есть все необходимое. Рядом есть магазины и рестораны. Был предоставлен 4G WI-FI роутер, его можно брать с собой. Отличный выбор для отдыха на ГОА.

Fantastic apartment in a nice quiet area of Candolim. Quick 10 minute walk to the beach and 5 min walk to the street where all the shops and restaurants are. Yogita was a great host, she met us there on arrival with a selection of Indian sweets and a basket of fruit, and assisted us with getting laundry done and organizing taxis.

Great place. Spacious and clean. Yogita is a great host and took care of all our needs.

Yogita was very welcoming and helpful on our arrival and even drove us to the nearest supermarket to get supplies. The apartment was nice and spacious and in a quiet area and the pool was well kept. The road to the apartment complex can be dark at night but we always felt safe just kept a torch handy. Not far from the main road of shops and restaurants and just a bit further to the beach a good base in Candolim!

This is my first booking in Airbnb, I really liked it. Apartment is very neat and clean with modern amenities , located in peaceful area. Yogita is just a call away whenever any help is required , really a great host. I would definitely recommend this place for whoever wants to stay in North Goa. This place would be on my priority list , whenever I visit Goa again.

GOOD

Zarir's place is beautiful and well maintained. Feels just like home. Location is easy to find and very close to the main road. Value for money.

Room was very neat and clean. A good host. Must stay.

Darryl's an excellent host and I enjoyed my entire stay during work

I've stayed with Darryl three separate times over the course of 2 months and he has been an incredible host. Towards the end, it was almost like family. His wife Vinny and even his two kids Stephanie and Darwin have been inordinately warm and have facilitated me and my crew even at the oddest hours after we returned from a tough day's work during the Goa elections. They went out of their way to ensure that we ate and that the rooms were cleaned even on the days that we left in a hurry. My stay was very comfortable and I would recommend Darryl's guest house to anyone who wants to find a homely place to stay in Panjim. It's located very close to a supermarket and there are many eateries around. Darryl very graciously offers to share his dinner on the days that our TV news job didn't give us time to eat all day and we weren't in the mood to hunt for food. The room has all the facilities to even cook if you have the ingredients. There's a washing machine and even an iron board! All in all, a very nice, homely and comfortable stay and I can't thank Darryl and his family enough. PS: He also has a super cute Alsatian called Tyson who will take a little time to warm up to you but if you're a dog-lover (like me), he will always greet you with a wagging tail and a welcoming bark at the end of the day. God bless his family.

The location is ideal if you want to hit the casino. Wifi wasn't working and the television had only a few channels - the place is fine other than this.

My trip was amazing. I was only there one night for work, very last minute and stressful, but Darryl and his wife made me feel so comfortable and went completely out of their way to make life easier for me. Highly recommend.

A very calm and nice place, 5 minutes walk to the beach, well furnished king size bedroom, good bathroom and dining room. Yes I recommend strongly people at Darryl's place.

.

Nice place near to beach and restaurant s Request them to keep the place tidy prior arrival.

I strongly recommend this place

Wow wow wow - I fell in love with this place last week. My husband and I had been travelling around Goa and Hampi for two weeks and needed somewhere to stay in Panjim....came across Mateus and instinctively something told me to book it.... And boy it impressed!!!! Antonio is just lovely and the rooms are so cool - I felt so relaxed and wanted to stay another night. Location was fabulous a short walk from the Latin Quarter, Immaculate church and buses..... If we return to Panjim - this place will definitely be our first port of call.......

Mateus was a great place to stay and was close to many restaurants and cafes. Really enjoyed it.

Beautiful renovated Portuguese home in the old town on Panjim. Lovely staff and tastefully decorated rooms - highly recommend!

Ayanal was a great host, his colleague is an amazing cook and keeps the property very clean.

The host canceled this reservation 8 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Hotel Mateus is a beautiful building that fits in perfectly with the fountainas. The rooms are emaculate and we instantly fell in love with them. This was a perfect stop between beach huts and hostels and also in the perfect place to explore Panaji. Raj could not be more helpful as a host and his staff are equally friendly. This place is a bargain for the price.

Location is very good and one can easily walk around Panjim from the hotel (if it’s not a very hot day!). The hotel was very clean but it is far from being a “boutique” hotel. Staff were friendly but please don’t accept a ground floor room if you have any other choice, as people gather around the area nearby and staff were talking till late hours (one can hear everything from the room). Wi-fi was non-existent, that’s how bad it was. Having said that, I had a good stay overall.
