Beachfront vacation rentals in Santa Cruz

We had a lovely time at Devika's place. Not only was it really close to Mandrem beach but the rooms were comfortable and the garden space was perfect for our family. There are some parts of the house like low balconies that are a little unsafe for kids so they need to be watched 24x7 but besides that the home is beautiful and a great place for a family getaway. Devika is also super responsive and very accomodating and understanding. Thanks Devika for a memorable holiday :)

The place is great for family. It's nice and cozy, felt like home! Host is very responsive and gets things as requested. staff's are very helpful and available when ever required. Thank you for making our trip a wonderful one.

good apartment just few minutes away from the beach

The villa was good and clean. The staff was also polite.

it was great experience at this place

The best host and family i have ever met. The place is outstanding the perfect blend of farm, beach and old portugal. the host outstanding not to mention the numerous animals from birds to horses . Dr pinto and his family went way beyond any expectation a must goan experience. for anyone. Great place for kids to learn about animals and farms and also for people to get away from a busy life. the best part beach is 5 minutes away and market and eating joints are nearby yet you feel cocooned in greenery and quiet

Sathish & Zallina are both wonderful hosts & go every step of the way to make sure your stay is memorable. Their property is super close to the beach & around a lot of good restaurants & cafes which makes it a rare find! The cottage has plenty of books & toys to keep my toddler engaged. The hosts went out of their way to celebrate my wife’s birthday & arranged a home-baked cake & decorations for her. Just goes to show how kind, attentive & generous hosts they are. I wholeheartedly recommend them if you’re looking for a nice & quiet getaway with your family.

The location of the Airbnb was great—very convenient, clean, and just a short walk to the beach, which was a big plus. The space itself was well-kept, beautifully done up with tasteful interiors, and comfortable throughout—no issues there. The society has a separate pool for kids, which was a nice touch. We also really appreciated how responsive the owner/caretaker was—when we asked for some extra utensils, they were arranged immediately. So thanks for that! There are plenty of good restaurants nearby as well. Fat Fish, just outside the society, is a must-try. Overall, it was a pleasant and comfortable stay. Would definitely recommend it!

Great choice. Great property

Had an awesome stay host was super chill and helpful, Location couldn’t be better, everything was close by. The security guard was a total legend—always there to help with my scooty and cabs.

Had a wonderful stay at Palm Beach Villa in Calangute, booked through Airbnb. The villa had a serene and relaxing ambience, with a lovely pool, lush greenery, and the beach just 300 meters away – truly the best part for beach lovers. A special mention to Ms. Asha, who went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. She was constantly in touch from the time of booking until check-out, ensuring that all our needs were met. Whether it was a small issue or a quick query, she responded promptly and resolved everything. Her warm hospitality and proactive support really made a difference and added a personal touch to our experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful, convenient and well-managed getaway in Goa!

Excellent Family-Friendly Stay in Goa! Rating: 5/5 We had a fantastic time at this beautiful property in Goa with my family! The property is extremely clean and well-maintained. The secured parking space was a huge plus, and caretaker Sonu was always just a call away. John is a great host, super responsive and ensured our stay was comfortable. The property has all necessary amenities, and the spacious air-conditioned living room was perfect for relaxing. The super clean washroom and balcony with pool view were added bonuses! The location is fantastic, making it easy to explore Goa's beautiful beaches and attractions. One minor suggestion: consider replacing the induction cooktop with a gas stove. As a family, we sometimes needed to cook proper meals quickly. Overall, we highly recommend this property for a comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable stay in Goa. The host's exceptional hospitality makes this property truly stand out! We can't wait to come back and stay here again!

Had a great stay at this Airbnb in Goa! The 2 BHK space was neat, clean, and exactly as described. It was well-maintained with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. The building had good security, which made us feel safe throughout our visit. We also really enjoyed the pool – a great place to relax after a day out. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and hassle-free stay in Goa!

We had a fantastic stay at Saheel’s place during our trip to Goa. The location is unbeatable, with the beach just about a kilometer away and numerous pubs and restaurants within walking distance. It perfectly met our needs for convenience and accessibility. The property itself was spotless, exactly as described, and incredibly comfortable. The mattresses and bedsheets were of excellent quality, and the room was spacious enough to accommodate four guests comfortably. Only the washing machine was not available at the property as it malfunctioned a while back, but it wasn’t a big issue for us. Overall, our stay was delightful, and the combination of a prime location, clean accommodations, and thoughtful amenities made it truly memorable. We would highly recommend Saheel’s place to anyone visiting the Vagator beach area.

Great was place and everyone was very easy to talk to. We got everything we wanted in minutes from wifi getting fixed to towels

We had a great time, as the place was spacious, extremely clean, and, most importantly, within walking distance of the beach. The swimming pool also added to our experience. At the same time, parking is a challenge. While there was an option for preset breakfast, we didn't avail ourselves of it due to the lack of variety and price. In-house kitchen and Blinkit deliveries took care of the morning needs. The host, Sunaina, was highly responsive and supportive. Overall, it's a highly recommended place.

It was beautiful and the perfect get away. The beach feels like it is fingertips away. The hosts assistant was also super helpful and respectful. Would definitely recommend.

Some stays leave you with memories, but staying with Mr. Dicosta and his family left us with warmth in our hearts. From the very first moment — when they came all the way to receive us at the ferry — we knew this wasn’t just a regular Airbnb experience. It was something truly special. Mr. Dicosta welcomed us with cold beers, and he made sure my mother felt at home with her favorite cold drinks. But what truly moved us was his wife’s kindness — she walked just to get chicken patties especially for us, a gesture so small yet so full of love that it will stay with us forever. It didn’t feel like we were guests. It felt like we were visiting long-lost family. Their kindness, generosity, and open hearts turned our trip into something we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Mr. Dicosta and family, for not just opening your home to us — but also your hearts. We came as strangers and left with lifelong memories.

The place was great, the beach is very very close just a small walk away. Lots of shacks/restaurants are close by. It was actually very quiet also. The Villa is also huge looks exactly like the pictures. The staff Noor was also very helpful with anything that was required. The place has space to park also. Overall my experience was very good. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a larger place close to the beach.

It’s was a great place with beautiful view of the sea. The housekeeping guy was also very polite and helpful. Overall we had a great time .

Best place to stay in North Goa. Location-wise and view-wise, a great apartment. Hope we will again plan a family booking for the same home.

We stayed for a week and had such a wonderful time! The beds were super comfortable, and the AC and fans kept the place cool and pleasant throughout our stay. One of our favourite parts was enjoying meals with the amazing view — absolutely stunning! The beach, just steps away, was perfect for children. It was cleaned daily and had lifeguards on patrol, which gave us extra peace of mind. The hosts truly made our stay extra special. They were incredibly kind and thoughtful — like having lovely neighbours or even family nearby. They picked us up and dropped us off at the airport and even helped arrange and drive us to a fun day trip to a nearby water park. The kitchen was well-equipped for making simple meals, and the bathroom had a great hot shower plus a toddler toilet, which was a big help for our family. We will definitely come back!!

It was one of the best stays in Goa. Extremely beautiful.

Stay was very good, next to Anjuna Beach.
