Palolem beach Goa Accommodation
Palolem Guest House is very Neat & clean and rooms are available from Rs. 600-1200 per night in the Seasons.
Virgin Beach resort which is just opposite the Om Sai guest house is a decent place to stay with budget accommodation available.
Le-Grand residency is opposite the turn to Palolem beach. The rooms are decent however there is some noise as the buses to Margao are parked just outside the hotel (opposite end).
Luke’s Residence is the posh accommodation is Palolem. Though it is almost 2kms off the beach on the road towards Patnem beach. (ahead of Cleopatra resorts).
Fernandes there are two on the right hand side (owned by brothers) and both offer good clean accomodation in some of the best beach huts on the beach.
Neptune’s Point stands a bit aside of the beach (on its left side) on an rock ground. There are wooden huts with cold showers, beds, big balconies, and with marvelous views over the beach. The price – 850 INR per hut per night.
Sundowner at the north end of the beach, is a nice place to stay, if you enjoy peace and quiet. During high tide getting to the beach might be difficult but the resort’s staff are very kind, and will offer you a ride by boat. Prices from 600 INR, depending on the season.
Ordo Sounsar close to Sundowner, also enjoys peace and tranquility, but has the advantage of easy access when the tide is high, having its own bamboo bridge. Friendly Goan hosts, local Goan food in the restaurant, and the beach’s best G & T’s at the bar.
Allegra Cheap rooms, and friendly staff. However very basic, but located right on the beach behind the Hare Krishna Hare Rama Restaurant. You won’t regret staying here as you will meet a ton of new people.
Home is cited by the major travel guides as a friendly, hospitable resort on Patnem beach, near Palolem. In fact, its owners are extremely disorganised and unpleasant; double-booking guests during peak season and refusing to acknowledge their mistakes, leaving would-be guests with no accommodation during the busiest time of year. Steer well clear.
