This trip to Goa had us move to Vagator - a particular favourite. We travelled with our friends who picked a place elsewhere, we however wanted to be as close to the sea as possible. Enter Casa Playa!
Situated right next to the famous Sunburn...festival field, I was enthralled on our way in ( and through our stay in North) where they set up inch by inch!!!! As all properties sea facing are, the entrance was inconspicuous. We stepped in after a particularly tiring drive through peak traffic and checked in- that’s when the small details jumped out.
I will leave the room details to the photos I upload. For me, it was pretty and useful. Comfortable and well maintained, the property and room were both equipped with good quality fixtures and there was nothing flimsy or shoddy. Ours was the first room, so away from the noise from the famous restaurant in house Loco Loco - more on that later - as well as the street. A few more steps, you walk down to the pretty as picture small Vagator beach.
This time we indulged - our room came with a jacuzzi in the garden enclosure of our room. It’s not a crucial requirement, but just very well planned and maintained, hence calling out the effort in appreciation.
Our manager was a great guy - courteous and crisp. Not someone who would be profusely conversational, but watchful and considerate.
This trip I heard horror stories from friends that hotels were calling to confirm Accommodation, even when booked through portals and then threatening to cancel if you don’t pay up up front. There were no such calls or demands from Casa Playa and that had me heave a sigh of relief.
Do visit and have a great time there!More
