Such a nice place - a home away from home. The owner, our new friend in Goa, took us to see some amazing venues in Goa and Maharasta that I wouldn't have seen otherwise. We felt very welcome and at home at the hotel and the location is great! The best place in Northern Goa without a doubt. Thank you... More

Hotel owner Rinoo is charming and a great conversationalist . He gave us many useful tips about Mandrem and was very attentive to all of our needs. A lovely relaxing river front hotel with easy access to the beach. Stay a while , slow down the pace and enjoy. :-))

The rooms are peaceful and the views when you wake up in the morning, especially on the top floor are magical. I really have nothing bad to report about this guesthouse. There... More
