Explored the quieter side of Goa and well The artist Cottage was the cherry on the cake.
Pros:

Has the "artist" touch. Lovely exp, cozy, calm, clean... An absolute offbeat stay. Plus the staff was wonderful. Helped us with everything and were very warm.

I infact was fasting on 1 day and they went out of the way to get me fruits from the market. The shacks and beach are just a 1 min walk. Will definitely visit again.

Cons:

2 imp points.
1. There can be more variety in the breakfast. And it could be more timely. It's supposed to be from 8.30am, but everyday it was delayed.
2. Extremely loud surroundings at night- was unable to sleep till 1.30am. would suggest maybe make the room slightly sound proof.

A home away from home
Pros:

The property is very well curated with lots of great and interesting artworks, specially the woodcuts in the reception area.
Also loved the staff, very amicable.
The dog blacky was an absolute angel.
The property is great for people who want some alone time in goa. The beach is literally a minute away so that is just awesome.
Overall it’s great value for money.

Cons:

The only and only thing that bothered me a little bit is that there is some distant music that can be heard at night disrupting the peace. But then again it’s goa and noise pollution is everywhere.
Just a minor glitch really.

quiet. comforting and beautiful.
Pros:

it was an amazing stay, the property was exactly like it promised, quiet, comfortable cottages with more than adequate amenities, the closest beach was Ashwem , which is like walking distance , the beach is filled with amazing places for sun downers.
the staff was amazing and very helpful, me and my wife are still missing the amazing cheese omelets , the staff helped us in renting a car and also helped us booking a cab for the airport on our way back.

staying there was more than worth it, would definitely do it again.
