We started a business trip in India with a two day break in Calangute at the Pousada Taume and couldn't have been happier about it. Neville, Matthew (and Biscuit) were wonderful hosts. We weren't too worried about internet access and found everything to be charming and just what we needed after long flights. The beach property is fabulous - what... More

We have spent s lovely couple of days at the Psada Tauma a traquil oasis in busy Goa. Luscious garden, lovely cottages, pool. The restaurant is very good and the staff discrete and helpful. Neville the manager can see to all needs including a visit to the best coffee bars. The resort has a private beach with restaurant. A gem,... More

We took a month vacation in India during March 2012 culminating in a 7 day train journey that over nighted in Goa at the end of the trip. We were ready for some laziness and to just chill out for a few days. The Pousada was perfect. There were no unwanted interruptions. The atmosphere and settings of the main hotel... More

This is one of the best boutique hotels we have ever visited. The owner/manager Neville and his staff, especially Matthew, are suberb caretakers of their guests. The rooms are very nice and the restaurant excellent. The area is an oasis in an otherwise bustling town Calangute. The beach area is very nice and the shiuttle, even if somewhat simple, gets...

It's a good hotel. Services are just fine, Neville makes a great host and the food is excellent. We liked especially the possibility to stay a quit day at the pool side or to go to their nice facility at the beach (we are looking forward when the old building is rebuild and stay some time there). The rooms start... More

We initially stayed here November/December 2010 and had the opportunity to return March 2012. It was lovely to find the same staff, Neville clearly inspires loyalty from his excellent team. The surroundings of plants, trees and pool area are as fabulous as ever, we arrived after a very busy week exploring the Golden Triangle area and were quite tired so... More

Neville and his team have created the perfect retreat from the busy streets and beaches of Goa. We stayed here for 4 nights in February and really enjoyed the tranquil surrounds at the hotel/pool and the private beach setting of the beach house. The food was fabulous and lassis and seafood prepared fresh by the chef at the beach front... More

This is the perfect hotel for those looking for upscale accommodations in North Goa, which has more personality and activity, but fewer luxury hotels, than the south. The rooms, while quite spacious, are rustic and simply decorated, but the hotel truly shines in its common areas and the personal attention that guests receive. The lush grounds, built around a pool,... More
