We stayed at Ciaran's for 5 nites in may. Since it was off-season we dint find too much difficulty getting acco here (could get tricky in period season period of dec to feb). The best part about this place is its location. Located in the middle of the stretch of the beach, it gives equal access to southern n northern... More

Stayed here for 3 of our 4 intended nights in a garden facing beach hut. Great service, food, and location! We just couldn't bear the heat in our non-a/c hut. Also found our room to be a little dingy, but it's probably because we arrived towards the end of the season. Sheets could have been a bit cleaner. Best part... More

This is the best place in Goa palolem beach. Clean, service, food. I can recommend this to everybody. It might look a little bit more expensive but among other things, breakfast is included !

We stayed for 4 nights at Ciaran's and really enjoyed our stay there. We had a gorgeous sea facing hut which was really nicely presented and very spacious. We walked up and down the beach on our first day and couldn't see any other beach huts that even compared to Ciaran's so we were really pleased with our choice. The... More

Easily the best beach huts on palolem but come at about 5x the price of everywhere else. The staff however are very unhelpful and see their work as a chore. Apart from that its OK, no need to book in advance if you want to shop around as there are plenty of alternatives on the beach.

Stayed for 4 nights with 3 friends. These are by far the best beach huts on Palolem Beach. We stayed here after reading all the good reviews on trip advisor and the place didn't disappoint. Good standard of hut, don't expect 5 star luxury but perfectly suitable for India. 4 poster bed with Mosquito net, plenty of room and a... More

I have recently returned from an amazing stay at Ciarans, I was in the beach hut with sea views next to the restaurant and despite the review from a previous person who found it too noisy I thought it was fine. It was always quiet after 11pm which was fine . The matress was so comfortable and the seaview was... More
