The hype
Guests are blown away by the aesthetics and the pool but frustrated by the noise levels and lack of privacy in lower-tier rooms.

Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Stunning Greek-inspired white and blue architecture
- Massive central lagoon pool that anchors the whole property
- High standards of housekeeping and general cleanliness
Snel Overzicht: A beautiful, photogenic compound that feels like a private oasis until the DJ starts blasting music so loud the front desk hands out earplugs.
Beoordeeld door @Elenadaisyclarke: I stayed in this pool villa and it was the most romantic escape I've had in ages. Sliding the glass doors open to jump straight into the pool every morning was pure bliss. The open-air bathroom is a bit wild but totally adds to the tropical vibe. Highly recommend for couples.

- You plan to spend your entire day lounging by a pool with cocktails
- You are a heavy sleeper or enjoy a clubby atmosphere
- You want a backdrop for influencer-style vacation photos

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is there a gym?
No. There is absolutely no fitness center on the property.
How far is the beach really?
It is a 10-15 minute walk (approx. 800m) to Ashwem or Morjim beach along a busy road.
Is the pool heated?
No, but the Goa heat usually keeps it comfortable.
Do rooms have privacy?
Villas do; Cottages do not. Cottage doors are glass and face the public path.
Is it suitable for remote work?
Wifi is generally strong, but the background music makes taking calls from the balcony impossible.
Are pets allowed?
No, the resort has a strict no-pet policy.
Tips van Insiders
- ✨
Rent a scooter immediately; the walk to the beach is unpleasant and taxis are overpriced for short trips.
- ✨
The 'Jacuzzi' in the villa often takes 45+ minutes to fill—start it early.
- ✨
Ask for a room on the upper level if booking a standard category to avoid eye-level stares from passersby.
5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat
💡The 'resort' is essentially a compound built around a pool; there are no grounds to explore.
💡Bathrooms in lower-tier rooms are compact and often lack exhaust fans, leading to humidity issues.
💡The 'Greek' theme is purely cosmetic; the food and vibe are standard North Goa commercial.
💡You will hear your neighbors' conversations through the connecting walls in the cottages.
💡Room service prices are significantly higher than the excellent local cafes just 5 minutes away.
