This Indo Portuguese colonial mansion is located in the village of Saligao. The property dates back to the 40s and retains its quintessential Goan vibe. The open plan property offers two cozy bedroom cottages along with four other bedrooms. Expect high ceilinged rooms, colourful tiled floors, antique Belgian chandeliers, four poster beds, and a garden that surrounds the property. Run by a Goan couple, do make sure you get them to tell you stories of the neighbourhood and of a bygone area. The property offers AC and non AC rooms, free WiFi, with complimentary Indian or continental style breakfast. Every room is done up in a different way

The home’s immediate neighbours include a chapel,  and other quaint heritage homes. The homestay is located just 10 minutes away from the action packed beaches of Candolim, Calangute and Baga. If you are looking to discover the neighbourhood, don’t forget to check out Mãe de Deus Church, which sits in the middle of lush paddy fields and is worth a visit simply to admire its gothic architectural style.
