    We were pleasantly surprised by our stay at Caravela Homestay. The location was perfect, allowing us to easily explore the charming Fontainhas quarter and visit the beautiful Panjim Church. The homestay had a sense of nostalgia with its 200-year-old wooden steps from the Portuguese times. The highlight of our stay was the owner, Carlos, who went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience. From providing valuable advice on exploring the city to arranging an alternate cab for us, Carlos was a true gem. He even made sure my elderly mother had a special birthday celebration, complete with a delicious meal and a sunset viewing at Dona Paula. The food at the homestay was excellent as well, with friendly staff always ready to assist. we would highly recommend Caravela Homestay for a personalized and unforgettable Goan experience.

    I was pleasantly surprised by the value for money at this hotel. The prices were very reasonable, especially considering the prime location in the charming Fontainhas area of Panjim. The attention to detail in the rooms was impressive, with all the amenities one could ask for. The staff were friendly and provided excellent service throughout my stay. The breakfast served in their attached coffee house was included and had many options to choose from.

    The only minor issue I could find was that the bathroom was a bit small, but it was still manageable.

    Had a great Easter break in Goa! Stayed at a cool little homestay near the river with friendly staff and tasty breakfast. Loved the fact that the location was central to all the best sights and sounds. Easy to catch a taxi or auto for longer trips, and plenty of food options nearby. The room was clean and comfortable, and I appreciated the personalized service from the owners. Plus, great value for money - definitely coming back soon!

    The room was spacious and well-maintained, with clean and comfortable bedding. The breakfast served was fantastic, with a choice of eggs cooked to order and freshly brewed coffee. The location was very convenient, as it was within walking distance of various attractions, markets and restaurants.

    We did encounter some miscommunication with the staff regarding a day trip we had booked. Although we had agreed on the price and inclusions, we were disappointed to find out later that part of the trip was not covered.

The rooms are spacious, well-maintained, and sparkling clean, ensuring a comfortable stay.

    We had an amazing stay at this hotel. The location was great, with good restaurants and attractions within walking distance. The staff was super friendly and helpful, offering an early check-in and even a complimentary upgrade to a separate room. The rooms were clean and had good facilities, like a fridge and safe. The hotel shuttle service was also really convenient.

    Nothing I didn't like to be fair.

    True Goan hospitality: The staff at the homestay made me feel like family, greeting me with warm smiles and going above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and memorable. Their hospitality was as comforting as a home-cooked meal. Amazing city view: The room provided a breathtaking view of the city, allowing me to soak in the vibrant atmosphere of Panaji. It was like having a front-row seat to all the excitement and beauty the city had to offer. Well-equipped rooms: The air-conditioned room was a cozy haven with its satellite TV and minibar. It felt like stepping into a private hideaway, complete with all the amenities needed for a relaxing stay. Free WiFi and parking: The homestay offered complimentary WiFi in public areas, ensuring that I could stay connected with loved ones back home. Additionally, the free self-parking facility was convenient for guests traveling with their own vehicles. Convenient location: Located in the heart of Altinho, the homestay provided easy access to notable attractions like the Secretariat Building and Church of Our Lady of Immaculate Conception. It was the perfect base for exploring the charm of Panaji. Shuttle service: The homestay offered a shuttle service to the airport, making my travel experience seamless and stress-free. Excellent dining options: With a restaurant on-site, I was treated to delicious meals without having to venture far. The 24-hour front desk ensured that dining was both convenient and satisfying.

    Small room size: The only downside was the small size of the room, resembling an attic with limited space to move or sit comfortably.
