though my friend and i stayed at capella for just a day, it has been on our minds ever since. we were lucky to get the cottage (silk cotton) which is just perfect in every sense of the word. it was very hard for us to step out of that fantastic cocoon. i have stayed at other home stays before,...

We stayed at Ayesha and Jamshed's lovely and luxurious home with our family of 5 (kids aged 12,9,and 5) over a couple of days around Easter. How lucky we were to find this haven of hospitality! Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their time. Everything was excellent - the spacious Heliconia room, the spirit of the house maintained so well by the loving... More

I am biased because I know the owners Ayesha and Jamshed well but their home stay in Goa is absolutely charming. A unique hideaway with authentic charm and delightful hosts. The rooms, grounds and pool are unique and lovely - there is even a detached cottage for those who want more privacy. The days fly by - dipping in the... More

Home stays are challenging to get right. You need a mix of the soft service with the feeling of comfort -and yet someone's else is home needs to feel like your own. Well Capella hits it spot on. From the welcome of soothing jazz on a breezey morning, a luring pool with a panoramic view, and the hospitality of an... More

An absolutely wonderful homestay. My husband and I have stayed in B&B's and Homestays across the world and have been fortunate to have stayed in some exceedingly pleasant and beautiful homestays. Capella ranks right up there, in our hearts as a homestay filled with such astonishing grace and charm and beauty all around. Location: Superbly located and central to most... More

Ayesha and Jamshed are warm and friendly hosts who run a charming homestead. Made up of a quaint bungalow, cottage and infinity swimming pool, Capella, is a great place to relax. Large spotlessly clean dining room, bed rooms, sit out and two extremely friendly dogs running around, complete the picture of the Capella. Ayesha arranged a two wheeler for us... More

Wonderful place for a quiet and relaxed getaway. We were both unwell when we landed in goa,so we ended up staying for the most part inside the villa, and can you believe it.. We enjoyed that. Ayesha, Jamshed and the staff are warm, friendly and efficient. The food (both vegetarian and seafood) was tasty and ' homely '.

Capella is a charming, luxurious, warm, friendly yet private homestay in Goa. The time spent by the pool reading a book or a swim under a full moon night allows guests to view the most amazing wildlife sights (an owlet, peacocks, kingfishers) not to forget the chilled beers that add to the fun. As a perfect romantic getaway as also... More

We stayed at Capella from Feb 8th to 14th and fully enjoyed our stay here in Helconia. After an exhausting trip to Goa (incl a missed flight) we felt completely relaxed after the first night in our lovely and spacious room. Ayesha and Jamshed were great hosts and never missed an opportunity to make our stay as comfortable as in... More
