Ishavilas was a beautiful property, perfectly located in Siolim (which is the last bastion of serenity in Goa)... the rooms are luxurious without feeling overbearing.. you know a boutique hotel is good when it makes you feel like you have stepped into a home, rather than a hotel. The staff were attentive, well trained, and genuinely nice. Hope to be... More

We spent a weekend in the 2 bedroom cottage at Ishavilas and absolutely loved it! The cottage is separate from the main villa and decorated in a modern eastern style with amenities such as a full fledged kitchen, common sitting area and private outdoor area.

The food is homely. The pool is a bit small and quite functional, and isn't very experiential like the five stars. The decor might seem a bit freaky at first, but it grows on you and adds a bit of character as well. Overall a nice place to stay at if you like that whole rustic, home stay kinda vibe.... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Neemrana’s first 'Noble Home', Ishavilas is a private, fully-serviced luxury villa located in the sleepy town of Siolim in Goa. The villa takes its name from the Hindu word ‘Isha’ which means the formless primordial source of creation. Not the average rental villa, it was designed and built by a series of two Owners since 2000 for use as their second home. As a home, it is being spruced up and decorated as more art arrives. Ishavilas is nestled amongst nature’s tropical bounty of leaf and fruit, abundant trees and a blooming garden. This beautiful Portuguese-colonial house, with its grand entrance and long driveway, is a true tropical haven of tranquility. Conveniently placed on the edge of Siolim, Ishavilas receives and pampers like a home, but also evokes an exotic and luxurious lifestyle, unique only to the Orient. Gilded pediments above doors, objets d’art, gold braid cushions on antique furniture set the style indoors while stone statues dress the garden of crotons and pathways. You will feel very much as if you are stepping into a private home rather than a rental villa. ... more   less
