Luxe CL

SabaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
If I had to describe my stay at this apartment in one word, it would be ‘perfection’. I visited with my mom and an aunt and this apartment was perfect for the three of us. The location was amazing. The interiors were gorgeous. We loved hanging out at the end of each busy day in the cozy living room with the most beautiful views of the lotus tower. As for the facilities: the kitchen was well equipped, bathrooms were spacious, the air conditioning worked well and the beds were very comfy. A huge thanks to Roshan. He was always available as the go-to contact person for questions and was very accommodating of all our requests. Nicola was also an amazing host, for always following up with chat messages on Airbnb despite not being around personally. This apartment made our four day stay in Colombo wonderful. I would book this again in a heartbeat on my next trip to the country.

caénne:The Plantelier Collective

DishaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had the most wonderful stay, truly one of our best Airbnb experiences so far! The place had such a warm, homely vibe that made us feel at ease the moment we arrived. Everything was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully set up. What made the experience truly special was Tanuja! she was absolutely the best! Her hospitality was exceptional — so warm, caring, and attentive. It felt like staying with family. We’re so grateful for the kindness and effort she put into making our stay memorable. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for comfort, peace, and genuine hospitality. Thanks Rads

Iconic Penthouse+Private Terrace | 2min to Beach

ShyamRating, 5 stars2 months ago
It was a great place and great stay for us during our recent trip. Penthouse looked as in the listing and was clean. All rooms were very spacious and had thoughtful interiors. Location is very near to the beach and also near to very wide roads. Parking was available. All facilities inside the flat was very good. There was a big pool but we did not use it. Check-in & check-out were smooth. Kyle was very responsive and friendly. He had given some suggestions for food and shopping. Overall, me/ family enjoyed the stay and would definitely recommend this place.

Serenity Art Villa - Private House

Keerthi BRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This was our second stay at Alex’s property, and it was every bit as cozy, comfortable, and impeccably clean as we remembered. The place is well maintained, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful, making our stay even more pleasant. The highlight, of course, is its unbeatable location—right in front of the beach. Waking up to the sound of the waves and enjoying the view just steps away is truly special. We’d love to come back again!

Croco Beach House

JoeRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Croco House is a relaxing retreat. You can easily walk to the main area (recommend renting a scooty via Mita) or just spend the day at the house with hammocks, ocean, and good vibes. Nicola was a very responsive host and he genuinely cares about his guests. Having Mita on the premises was a blessing; he is very reserved, helped organize local logistics, and made great breakfasts. The place would be perfect for a small group of friends.

A quiet, private beach house

MarlonRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We had a great stay at Azeers and Leann's place! They were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make our time as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The accommodation itself was spacious, beautifully furnished, and very well equipped — the kitchen had everything we needed, including a washing machine, which was a great bonus. The location was perfect: just a few meters from the beach, yet quiet and secluded, offering total relaxation. We would definitely love to come back!

This was my second stay at Camper By the Bay, and it was just as wonderful as the first! This property is truly second to none—the staff are incredibly kind and welcoming, the food is absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere is perfect for relaxation.

La Mer’ Vue The blue’s ashwe homestay

SurajRating, 5 stars2 months ago
The best thing about this property is it's location. Its right on the beach facing road and all you have to do is walk a few steps and enter the beach. You get a complete view of ocean right from your gallery. As for home, it's nice cozy place which is well maintained and clean. All the amenities function perfectly. Host lipy was very prompt in making sure that our stay is comfortable. She even arranged a small household item when we requested for it. Cheers to her for that. Some improvement could be done in wifi as it as was getting disconnected regularly. Also one needs to know that the place is quite small in size and not as big as it appears in the pictures. Overall it was a comfortable and peaceful stay.

2 BHK appartment with patio and kitchen facility

JasonRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Terry's place is great. It's spacious, with plenty of room to spread out. The views of the surrounding area are excellent, and are best enjoyed with a coffee on the balcony. The apartment is quiet and private. There's a large TV for relaxing after a busy day, and a well equipped kitchen with everything you need for preparing meals. The security guard is super friendly and helpful. It's easy to catch an auto, while there's also fruit and vegetables stalls and local restaurants within walking distance.

Vaayu 2BHK Swimming Pool Talpona Riverside

RahulRating, 5 starstoday
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property in South Goa. From the moment we arrived, the experience was smooth and welcoming. Our hosts were extremely responsive and accommodating, making the booking and check-in process hassle-free. We reached a bit early due to our train schedule, and the caretaker was kind enough to let us settle in before the official check-in time, which we truly appreciated after a long journey. The highlight of the stay was definitely the stunning view of the Talpona River. Waking up to such a peaceful and scenic backdrop was a refreshing change from city life. The surroundings were quiet and serene—perfect for a relaxing getaway. The property was clean, well-maintained, and had all the basic amenities we needed. Whether you're looking to unwind or explore the more tranquil side of Goa, this place is a great choice. Highly recommended!

Private Terrace & Sunset View @ Benaulim beach

SanjayRating, 5 stars1 month ago
A cosy aesthetic and quiet place. 5 mins walk to beach/ beach shacks and actually gets sea breeze during parts of the day. The open goa-style windows on all walls made for a great ventilation. A view of green fields from most windows is added bonus. The studio room itself is well equipped as described and is good to take care of needs of two people for short or long term stay. All appliances were fairly well maintained and functioned properly. Ritu as a host was proactive and helpful all through. A great deal if you are in Benaulim area Thanks Ritu for sharing your place with us

Harmony a place of peace just 500m from Rock Beach

BalakrshnanRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Pros: 1) Covered Car Parking. 2) Responsive and thoughtful host ( she kept some eatables for us during check-in) 3) AC even in the living room . 4) Necessary amenities 5) Lift 6) Far from the hustle of the crowd but still located within walking/driving reach of the happening places. Improvement points: 1) In-house RO facility ( 10L can was provided and host did fill up whenever needed) . 2) A door peep hole will help in knowing who is knocking the door before opening it to strangers. Suggestion to reach location: Please take the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Road (which takes 1 -2 mins more than Google suggested route) as the access road in between is very narrow and roadwork was going on. Overall, definitely a place to visit for a pleasant stay in Pondicherry. thanks for the nice memories. 😃
