Rooms & Suites

Among the cashews

Five ways to stay, twelve keys in all, each one a little apart from the next.

Overview

Slow rooms for long days

Every room was restored by hand: lime-washed laterite, oxide floors, salvaged teak and cotton loomed in Kerala. There are no televisions; there are deep baths, planter's chairs and a ceiling fan that hums all afternoon.

Questions

Good to know

When is the best time to visit?

November to March is dry, warm and clear. The monsoon (June to September) is green, dramatic and very quiet; the spa and the kitchen are at their best then, and our rates are lowest.

How does the deposit work?

A 30% deposit, paid securely online, holds your dates. The balance is settled at check-in by card, UPI or bank transfer. You may also pay the full amount when you book.

What is your cancellation policy?

Cancel up to 14 days before arrival for a full refund of your deposit. Within 14 days the deposit is kept, but we will always try to move your dates instead.

Are taxes included in the price?

Nightly rates are shown before tax. GST is added at the government rate (18% for rooms above ₹7,500 a night) and every figure is shown before you pay.

Do you welcome children?

Yes, in the Cashew Cottages and Casa Orvalho, which have second bedrooms. The Balcão Rooms, Ghats Suites and Pool Suites are designed for two adults.

How do I get there?

We are forty minutes from Mopa airport (GOX) and fifty-five from Dabolim (GOI). We collect every guest; transfers are included for stays of four nights or more.

Can non-residents dine or visit the spa?

Yes, by reservation. Mesa, the chef's table and the spa all take a small number of outside guests each day.
