Overlooking the whitewashed St. Sebastian Chapel, Afonso Guest House is located in the heart of Fontainhas, an old Latin Quarter. Free WiFi access is available. The Panaji Kadamba Bus Station is just 800 metres away.

We loved the location of the guesthouse in the heart of the historic town of Panjim. The hosts Jeanine and Clifford were lovely, made us feel at home and gave us valuable tips for sightseeing. The room was comfortable: the AC was efficient but quiet, we had plenty of hot water for the shower. The house is surrounded by a beautiful garden, there is a pleasant terrace on the roof. We would definitely want to stay there again next time when we shall go to Goa.

O Hotel Goa, Candolim Beach offers modern rooms feature hardwood flooring and designer furniture. They are equipped with a flat-screen TV with cable channels and a minibar. Private bathrooms come with a bathtub and rain shower.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at O Hotel Candolim with my family, and I must say it exceeded our expectations in many ways. From the moment we arrived, the staff went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. Praveen at the Reception desk deserves a special mention for providing us with an early check-in at 8 am, which is a rarity in the world of hotels. This gesture allowed us to start our vacation on a fantastic note. The hotel's prime location right on the beach was a big plus, and the breakfast buffet was a delightful way to kick off our mornings. Throughout our 3-day stay, the housekeeping team, led by Azhar, did an outstanding job. They went the extra mile to ensure our room was impeccably clean, making us feel comfortable and well taken care of. While O Hotel Candolim might not fit the exact mold of a premium 5-star hotel, it certainly has everything needed to create lasting memories. The staff's dedication and attention to detail, along with the beautiful location, make it a wonderful place to stay. Another standout moment of our stay was when Omkar at Reception offered us a late check-out until 3 pm, allowing us to make the most of our time there. I must admit that I had reservations about our stay due to some negative reviews I had read earlier. However, I can confidently say that all those concerns seem to have been addressed, as we didn't encounter any issues during our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at O Hotel Candolim, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to others. We look forward to visiting again in the future.

    Elegant cool house in the heart of Panjim with an elegant warm host. We loved our stay here. The house is beautifully designed and furnished with marble staircases, dark wood decor and furnishings and some gorgeous tiling. The host is ki d and considerate. We had a late flight out so she gave us a late checkout and - apart from wandering out for lunch (many places to choose from nearby) - we could think of nothing nicer to do than relax in this peaceful haven. An absolute treasure. Will come again when next in Goa.

    The hotel is in a very central position and close too main attractions in Panjim. The hotel has a nice interior design with its history and its own spirit. The owner was extremely helpful and nice: he gave us many useful recommendations, helped with everything we asked (from taxi to restaurant suggestions even outside of Panjim). He also helped us very much with getting a SIM card, which apparently is very difficult for foreigners, because you need at least 2 local numbers to do it. We are super thankful to him for all this help.
