13 Goa hotels to book for the festive season – Conde Nast Traveller
Situated in the charming North Goa village of Siolim, facing a chapel that was once part of the property, Siolim House is a little over an hour’s drive from the airport. A 24-room Indo-Portuguese mansion built in the 17th century, the property has been sensitively restored with period elements including pure shell lime wall plaster and oyster shell window panes, into a nine-room, classified heritage boutique hotel. Top room to book: the Macau suite (it used to house a Governor who served in Macao for the Portuguese). Expect high ceilings, polished wooden floors, four-poster beds and antique furniture.
Hotels With History in Goa, India – New York Times
Half an hour before our plane touched ground in Goa, a crew member announced that we would be turning around and flying back to Mumbai. It was the middle of monsoon season, and the rain and lightning had grown so heavy, the pilot no longer thought it safe to land. I’m not sure what metrics led the flight crew to change their minds, because heavy rain and lightning are exactly what we lurched through when, moments later, our plane began its jarring descent to India’s good-time state.

Known for its international party scene, Goa has its share of generic beach resorts to cater to the pleasure-seeking hordes. Travelers more interested in privacy than partying would do well to detour inland to Siolim House, a seven-room retreat 15 minutes from the beach that recalls a more refined time. Built in 1673 as a manor house for the governor of Macao, Siolim’s mixture of Goan and Portuguese architecture shows in the building’s colonnaded interior courtyard and shutters made from paneled wood and mother-of-pearl.
