Amrapali, Old Goa, India - Explore & Book

"Attention to detail and effortless hospitality permeate every corner of this peaceful guesthouse - aptly named Amrapali - House of Grace. An oasis of calm, it took almost 3 years of renovations to convert the once-dilapidated villa into its current state of splendour, and today it feels more like an expertly run aristocratic home than a boutique hotel. From the moment you arrive, you're incredibly well taken care of. There's no formal restaurant; rather, a casual dining space where you're asked for your personal preferences. As a result, everything we ate was superb: a bespoke fusion of Goan and European flavours, with as much homemade, locally sourced and organic produce as possible. Overlooking the peaceful Zuari river, this is perfect for those in search of complete relaxation and an authentic experience. Ayurvedic massages will help you unwind, and once you're restored in body and mind, Old Goa and its picturesque Latin Quarter are only a 15-minute drive away. Truly a House of Grace. Highs Only 30 minutes from Goa airport, so ideal for a couple of nights before or after your international flight Just 5 spacious bedrooms, with gorgeous antique furniture and a generous price tag Friendly staff are attentive without being obsequious A true sanctuary, well away from the tourist crowds Lows Strict cancellation policy Noise from the nearby NH-66 highway Recommended bars and restaurants are a drive away for a change of scene and you're a day trip from Goa's famous beaches (note, the nearest beach isn't clean enough for swimming) No twin rooms" - Meg Lambert
