We are a small property located admist the local houses wherein you can experience the true Goan feel. It is very convenient for clients catching an early flight back home.
Hello Friends, I'm Filomena Alvares originally from this beautiful village of Bogmalo. I have started managing this property after my retirement from a small guesthouse that I used to work as a housekeeper.
There are some famous restaurants nearby like Claudis Corner, Coconut Creek Restaurant, Sea Cuisine, Joets etc. The Dabolim International airport is about 5kms drive away from the guesthouse and is a ideal place for clients catching an early flight back home. Goa Diving is about 200mts walk away. The nearest city is Vasco Da Gama which is about 8kms drive from here.
