Having decided to visit Goa for the first time, my first thoughts where do I go North or South, after a lot of study, taking account of my age etc I decided South. Next decision is what beach area do I choose so after looking at some great maps on the net I decided on Colva as it seemed to... More

This is a very basic 2* India hotel. When we arrived mid January the hotel was about 50/50 English/Russian - however by 1st week in March we found ourselves the only 2 English people in the hotel!! All of the others were Russian - the majority being very noisy and rude. Having said this - the hotel is in a... More

William's Beach Retreat...very basic rooms. we had one in the "cottages" facing the pool. twin beds, one small table and a cupboard come wardrobe built into the corner. 2 plastic chairs and... More

Good hotel and with a good pool it gets even better.The hotel is close to the beach which is good for people who don't like walking much.The pool is big and the main pool is quite deep, so for the families with a little kid or kids (under 7) should use the small pool.

Enjoying the place for 3 weeks now and still love it. Will describe later as it's swimming time...Followed by cocktail time... Excellent staff, including Sebi the Manager,Joachim the receptionist,Jack the barman and John the breakfast honcho. Simple,well kept and managed.
