Like another guest who I met here, I booked my stay because the place was ranked #1 on Tripadvisor among Panaji inns. In many ways, the service is excellent and extremely personalized. The rooms and bathrooms are clean, and the house and pool are lovely. Overall, my stay was comfortable and positive. However, here are some things I wish I... More

We spent five nights at Divar Island Guest House in Nov/Dec this year and it was absolute bliss. We were looking for somewhere that was easy to reach from Mumbai but also quiet and we were lucky enough to stumble upon this place, which was everything we wanted and much more. Where to start? The location – it is Goa,... More

Great location on an island accessible only by ferry makes this a perfect hideout from the normally busy North Goa. Fantastic service and terrific sleep quality. Wish we could've stayed longer because we had a quick and short overnighter at the place on a friend's recommendation to soak in the experience - which is exactly how one should NOT visit... More

Everything we hoped for but better! this beautiful hideaway was a perfect first port of call after a long flight from London, we wanted a place within 40 minutes from the airport to unwind for a few days and adjust before venturing further south to Agonda. The house has been tastefully restored and comfortably furnished and we felt immediately at... More
