“Actually heaven.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 January 2012

We stayed in a tent by the river, and by tent, I mean luxury tent. It had a nice fridge always filled with cold drinks, and a fan too, but it was never needed at night as its so close to the ocean that it is nice and cool.

The bed is comfortable, with a sort of mosquito net around it, but I didn't get bit once (but my GF did).

The bathroom is clean with a nice hot shower. There is power to charge your devices if you ever need to, and there is free wifi in the restaurant area.

Food here is good, but there are other places nearby to eat too.

The best thing is, this is likely on the best beach in Goa. Nothing like Calangute, Baga etc with loads of vendors and massive amounts of people burning themselves in the sun. This was pure beauty, check out my pics and have a look. If you want to be totally alone, you can. Stunning.

Also, I did spend some time meditating on the pier (each tent has one) looking onto the river. The river is fast moving and didn't see any mosquitos, but is not suitable for swimming.

The staff here are great, and Barbara especially couldn't do enough for us - from sorting taxis to helping us with local info.

I would say if you have 2 weeks in Goa, go to somewhere more populated in the first week, then come here to decompress before you go back to real life.

Just. Pure. Bliss.

Thanks Mark, Barbara and team for a PERFECT time.

Room Tip: They have tents which are totally cool, but they have houses as well, which we didn't see so can...

“Perfect”

This is a perfect place to relax. The setting is amazing - it's secluded and you're inbetween the river and a beach. The food was fantastic and the price of the food was reasonable.
We stayed in a tent and I enjoyed the tent. The beds were comfortable and the tent was spacious. The shower didn't really have much hot water but that didn't matter. The bathroom was seperated from the bedroom with a curtain, that was the only thing I didnt like.
This place is well worth staying at. It's amazing. We stayed here for a week and could have stayed longer.

“WOW! You've got to go here!”

We spent one night here in one of the tents in October- it was an utterly divine setting, I don't think I've ever stayed anywhere more peaceful. The private jetties out on to the creek and just gorgeous and it's a two minute walk from the best beach in Goa! The tents were beautiful and really stylishly done, the food was great and the staff were charming and helpful. We can't wait to go back! The houses look great too! Thanks to everyone at Otter Creek!

“Perfection!”

We spend 8 days here at the end of our month in india, and what a delight it was, I had spent the whole of my trip looking forward to otter creek as I had heard such good reviews. And I was not at all disappointed! We were greeted at the entrance and taken to our tent with a freshly poured coconut juice, harvested that morning! The tent was immaculate, I was worried it would be too hot especially at the time of year, but we had a fan in the tent which worked really well and we kept reasonably cool. The bathroom was clean and provided hot water if needed, but we generally had cool showers, we sent our days body boarding on the amazing beach, which was practically our own private beach, and afternoons napping and reading, the evenings we spend with beer in one hand and with some amazing meals, mainly of the seafood variety!! This for us was the perfect end to our trip to India!

Stayed here for 10 days near the end of our 2 months in India.
* Double four poster bed with netting. Thick foam mattress - very comfy. Extra pillows supplied on request. Wall fan & plug in mozzie repellant
* Small bar fridge with soft drinks, beer and selection of wines. Also tea and coffee with UHT milk. Complimentary bottled water provided every day
* Lockable cupboard for valuables, as tent not secure, but not an issue. Property has security guards on the perimeter to keep out non-guests and is very secluded
* Meals prepared to order in the Dining Shack. Comprehensive menu, great food
* Free wifi (for laptop or iPad) in Dining Shack area, though signal weak at times
* Restaurants within walking distance up and down the beach if you want a change of scenery
* Staff incredibly friendly - nothing too much trouble - though not intrusive. Organised several outside trips with driver for us
