Holiday rentals with lake access in Goa

Stay was comfortable. Host was very responsive 1. arranged water can on request 2. cleaned house when we extended our stay 3. prepared house as given in listing the place 1. peaceful green surroundings 2. we had a car so was easy to get around accessibility there are uneven surfaces and steps in entry so young kids and those with accessibility requirements should consider this when booking.

We 5 friends had a great time in the 5 bedroom villa. The location is superb, very much out of the urban City and far from beaches, but alongside a beautiful river. It's perched on a hillock with a lovely view of the river. We could see Mopa airport in the distance from the villa. There's dense vegetation beside the property and we could hear peacock sounds, though not fortunate to see one. Lots of birds around the property. Though the food was not Goan in taste, it was good and the service was good too. This property is away from the main market and may not be suitable for couples but would be great for a large family or group of friends. Though we were 5 of us, we had a great time.

Great place. Would revisit and highly recommend for a special experience. Craig was responsive and helpful. If you plan to stay there with your own car, make sure you have a good driver though.

I stayed at Robert’s house for three days with my parents, and I must say the place is quite spacious and absolutely clean. The kitchen is well-stocked with utensils, and there’s a gas cylinder in case you want to make a simple breakfast or some tea/coffee. Both rooms have air conditioning, which was a big plus. The location is fantastic—just a 2–3 minute walk from Ashwem Beach. There’s a supermarket, coffee shops, a wine shop, and multiple restaurants nearby, including beachside shacks. The beach itself is super clean and peaceful. Mandrem and Morjim beaches are also close by, though having a vehicle makes getting around much easier. Robert is an amazing host. He helped with everything—from receiving us to assisting with booking a self-drive car. He was always available on call whenever we needed anything. Just very helpful overall. Would definitely love to visit again!

A nice place to stay for vacation. Rooms are with balcony and good storage space. Kitchen essentials and appliances are ready to use. Overall it was a great experience. Thanks Host.

A Perfect Getaway with Stunning Backwaters View I had a wonderful stay at wahiida’s in Goa! The highlight of the place is undoubtedly the beautiful backwaters view, which creates a serene and peaceful atmosphere. It’s the perfect spot to relax and unwind, away from the crowds. The location is also great—just a 10-minute drive to the beach and some lovely cafés. The surroundings are quiet and scenic, making it ideal for anyone looking for a tranquil retreat. The home itself was well-maintained, clean, and had all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. Overall, a fantastic experience! Highly recommend this place for those seeking a mix of nature, comfort, and easy access to Goa’s beaches and cafés. Would love to visit again!

The place was great, beautifully located inside a secure society, had all the amenities required. The host as well as the security gaurd were really helpful.

We had a stay for 3 nights and 4 days in this property and we had peaceful and happy stay. Dharman was very friendly and responsive. He helped us for early checkin as we reached early. Overall good experience

Hey Everyone, If you are looking for budget friendly, clean and relaxing stay, go book Alex Marie Guest house without thinking twice. It is a truly amazing stay, with all amenities which you won't get at any hotel. You can even cook your own food. The stay is situated near candolium market and beach. Patricia the owner is very kind and understanding. Thank you dear for making our stay hassle free.

Place is good size for single traveler. I ate out every meal, so the minimal kitchen did not affect me. If coffee is important to you as it is to me, the Clockman Coffee that appears down the road is not a cafe and the closest place was Maverick which was a 25 minute walk. The studio was well supplied with sachets of Nescafé which were a welcome start to the day until I found Maverick which I found worth the trek. The studio was easy to find, with a 24-hour doorman who were very friendly and helpful. The view from the balcony was nice, overlooking the lake toward Baga. Daily turndown service was efficient and professional. This studio was a comfortable respite from my busy itinerary in Goa. A/C efficiently cooled the space. I would recommend as a space off the busy corridors of Baga, Calengute, and Anjuna beaches, but within easy reach. There is a stand across the street from the Marinah that has taxis and scooters for hire. They were easy and fair with me.

I had a wonderful stay! The home is located in a calm and quiet area, perfect for relaxing. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. I especially appreciated having access to the terrace – it was a great spot to unwind. The host was very supportive and responsive, making the experience smooth and pleasant. Highly recommend!

Flexible stay as we wanted it to be. Good place for people having a train to catch from Karmali station, just 600m to walk. Thanks to the host for being responsive and helpful.

Very good place to stay in, wide,spacious and clean.

Vinod really is a superhost. He lives just on the floor above and genuinely cares about his guests. Pooja and Vinod's home is lovely and they have decorated it tastefully.

The hosts were exceptionally cordial and I was shown my room personally by them and all facilities available were explained in detail. It felt like home. The location is marvellous. I was provided keys to the main entrance as well as my room so access was so easy. I would recommend this Apartment to anyone including ladies travelling alone or with young children. Safety is also well looked after

Had a really great time at the stay, the place was as described in the photos put up and we had a great check-in experience. The rooms were clean the view was great and our host Ishan was super helpful and accommodated to all of our needs. The stay was in a very peaceful neighborhood quiet and at the same time accessible to pubs and restaurants nearby. Overall a great experience. Will be coming back soon!

The rooms are pretty nice and pretty peaceful. Great for longer stays. The host and his team are very helpful and friendly. Thank You!

This place for me is a 5/5 a must consider if u looking for a stay or even workation @ south goa the warmth offered by Sunil and others, the way they make u feel at home is a feeling like none other. this place is located so close to the beach, and very close to the bus stop @ canacona. they also offer amazing help wrt bike hire, laundry etc it's literally like staying with a group of friends very warm folks and a really charming stay waiting to be back der

Very lonely place. Neighbourhood is the work shop. Zomato finding difficult to reach. No near by restaurants. Home is very good with scenic beauty of lake.

The place is right at the beach and near some of the finest hotels in Goa. The compound has multiple small other cottages which keeps the goa vibe alibe along with peaceful nature of south goa. the place is apt for 4-5 people and extremely clean and beautiful, surrounded by 2 pools and beautiful common area. Sophie as a host is perfect, communicates effectively and provides insights whenever you ask for help. she is very flexibtand friendly. this will definitely not be the last time i have been to her listing.

Gerson was a really good host. Very helpful, cooperative and very friendly. He also guided us to a lot of places. He’ll pick your call even it’s 2 AM and any kind of issues you have, he’s there to help you out of that. Really looking forward to visit the place again and meet the owner. Thank you Gerson for your great hospitality and all the help. Looking forward to meet you again!

The place is really nice and cozy. We had a lovely stay of 4 nights and 5 days. It has lots of greenery and the mornings look beautiful. It is very near to the Palolem beach. There is no restaurant in the hotel but you can order food from outside. The manager and the other staffs are very friendly and helpful. The ambience is very calm and serene. There is a good shopping lane outside the hotel, Palolem Beach is one of the best beaches in South Goa.
