The guest house is run by a very nice family. All staff were very polite and helpful. Got me in touch with the right people to book onward travel. Room was spotlessly cleaned daily. Nice location. I had a very pleasant stay. Would recommend

    Excellent homestay location, very friendly and helpful host (Deric) who offers suggestions to us all the way from booking to departure. This is an old house with several rooms/small apartment with AC, fan etc. As a senior couple who had been travelling for two weeks, we enjoyed the downstairs room with an outside patio to relax and also be able to hang our washing. Breakfast is served across the road in a lovely cafe. We would highly recommend this homestay as we were made to feel so welcome.

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything needful and also has a dining table and chairs. The beds were comfortable, the linen fresh and clean and the bathrooms spotless. The host family living downstairs are friendly, helpful and ready to answer questions. They also kindly allowed us to keep our luggage in their living room past the check-in time, until we were ready to leave.

    This is a lovely homestay in a quiet residential neighbourhood (so Serene indeed) but also convenient for central Panaji. The room is comfortable and spacious. Having a full size fridge/freezer and kettle is great. What really makes it is the host family who are so welcoming and helpful. Full of advice and happy to help organise things. There's a very regular and cheap bus from the stop nearby straight into town and the bus station or you can take cheap taxis.

    Deric was a great host, so welcoming and accommodating. We extended our stay and arrived very late because our flight was delayed. Room was very spacious with a very comfortable bed and super clean. Deric sat with us at breakfast on our first morning and gave excellent local suggestions! Breakfast was lovely aswell, lots of variety to choose from. A lovely homestay, I would stay here again!

    In love with this home stay. Such the best Homestay I been during my trip in India. The owner is so lovely and very helpful. The style of the house is very authentic and remind me a lot portugal. Such a very nice experience! The room is very comfortable (especially the bed). Best place if you want to live the “Portugal of India” experience.
