The Chalets
"These  must be the most original and unique concept in accomodation in Goa"
Stephen Gomes (London)

These two- storey, open-plan rooms are breezy, light and spacious. They have been crafted and carved by a talented team of artists with the concept of creating a space which compliments its surroundings, without sacrificing any of the comforts.

Their architecture is based on the ancient Keralan houseboats from the backwaters of Cochin. The unique feature of this design is the ventilation at the top of the arched dome roof which is shaped in such a way that the flow of air upon entering the room is pushed down and cooled. This makes for an ingenious form of tribal air conditioning. There are  flap- style windows at the sides and an open front which also allows the breeze to circulate throughout the room.

The beds can be arranged as desired to suit a couple, a family or friends. The bathroom is a spacious en-suite with modern fittings. They are designed to accomodate up to a maximum of four people.

The rooms are atmospherically lit and are furnished with writing tables and chairs, hand crafted cupboards, coffee table and sun loungers. There is a safety cabinet and plenty of space to hang clothes on a bamboo rack.

The spacious balcony is a  great position for observing the stars and the surrounding wildlife of  the lake which acts as a natural cinema, with over 40 species of birds having been sighted in the area.

Downstairs, sliding doors open onto a lake front sitting area, ideal for sunbathing and general relaxation.
