This was our first visit to India so we were looking for a good introduction to the country. We chose Goa because of its relaxed reputation and in looking for somewhere to stay, we came across the 'homestay' concept, which was new to us. The idea is that you stay in accommodation either built in the grounds of your host... More

Olaulim, a great travel tip. Peaceful, quiet and relaxing in the Goa’s countryside, not so far from the beaches but enough to enjoy the serenity of that place. The resort – 3 bungalows – is next to a backyard where you can swim and use a kayak. You’re like at home. Simple but very comfortable bungalows with original design. An... More

I was in Olaulim for two nights with my wife and 2.5 yr old daughter was simply blown away by the wonderful hospitality of Pirkko and Savio. Extremely accommodating and wonderful hosts, beautiful property and brilliant food - what more can one ask for! Regret to have not spent more time there - would definitely look forward to staying there... More

Fi and I had never been to Goa before, and decided that the best way to see as much of it as we could in 10 days was to stay in 3 different places in North Goa. Our first stop was Olaulim. Right from when we arrived in Dabolim, a taxi had been organised for us - and before we... More

This is a space that defies logic and delights the senses. Three acres, beautifully landscaped with just three cottages! Why? ' Because we want the guests to enjoy the space as if it's their own house. Having more people would spoil the experience for the guests and we would also not be able to enjoy their company' With that simple... More

I loved this place! It was my first trip to Goa that a friend recommended and I was made very at home with Pirrko, Savio, the kids and dogs! They lookec after me well. Food was lovely! Beautiful spread for breakfast. Quiet and peaceful but not far from things. I want to go back to celebrate my 40th birthday there... More

If you want to do relax in Goa, head to Olaulim. The true beauty of the property is the ease with which hosts - Pirrko n Savvio - mingle with the guests and make them feel like the place belongs to them. For families with kids, OB offers kayakaing on the mandovi, a well maintained swimming pool, fishing and cycling... More

1. The beach and shops are half an hour away. A tranquil lazy village homestay away from the maddening crowds of candolim and calangute this place is for those who like their holidays to be a lot more than shopping and partying. Of waking up to a view of the morning mist enveloping the backwaters and clutching at that cup... More

Olaulim Backyards is a homestay with a difference. Situated in a small, peaceful Goan village, it’s a perfect get away from the busy coastal area but close enough to combine your stay with a day on the beach.Our three cottages are very rustic, and very exclusive, set in a coconut grove with a beautiful view on a lake. You can laze around the swimming pool or get active on kayaking, bird watching or cycling. ... more   less
