Anjuna nearby
190 m to the first cafeCafe Cotinga is 190 m down the lane and does the best coffee within walking distance. Goan Spice and Kefi are a few minutes further, and the beach is 1.8 km — a ten-minute scooter ride, or twenty on foot in the cool of the morning.
The lane itself is worth the walk: pastel houses, a chapel, and almost no traffic after dark.
Terrace sunsets
Lanterns from sevenCane lanterns come on around seven and the pavilion is where people end up, usually with something from the kitchenette. The terrace faces the last of the light over the roofline and the fields behind the property.
Selected villas have their own terrace or balcony. If that matters, say so when you book and we will tell you what is free.

When to come
Four seasons in Goa
Nov — Feb
Dry, and the busiest
The most reliable weather of the year, and the property fills up to match. Book well ahead for December and January.
Mar — Apr
Hot, and quiet
Fewer guests, hotter days, and the pool earns its keep. Rates ease off and the lane is calmer.
Jun — Sep
Green, and slow
The monsoon turns the lane green and the property half-empty. Rates are at their lowest all year.
The Wednesday flea market and the Saturday night market run through the season and stop in the monsoon.
