Capella Homestay, Goa

We wanted to just wind down from the hectic lifestyle and decided to try out a homestay at the last minute not really knowing what to expect. We discovered Capella on the internet and decided to go for it. I am glad we did.It was a discovery! We were traveling as a family of 3 and I am glad to say that we were not disappointed. Entering Capella is like stepping into a different world. Simple but tastefully done interiors, clean and lots of space unlike the restricted confines of a hotel room. This is the place to wind down, grab a book from the book shelves & cuddle up in a corner listening to the sounds of silence.Birds chirping, bees buzzing and the experience of how it feels to live the lazy life.

The location is serene & away from the mad bustle of the popular Baga and Calangute beaches. You will need a vehicle to move around the place though since it is located on a hill.

Baga, Calangute and Candolim beaches are conveniently away by a few minutes in case you need to get back to civilization & enjoy the beach shacks for the great seafood & the sea.The property is beautifully done and has the modern creature comforts yet it has a distinctive old world charm which marries the Goan experience with the warmth of a Parsi home. The place grows on you and we were feeling a little sad when we were leaving.

The host Ayesha is very friendly and along with Jamshed, her husband, has managed to create a very special experience which stands out when it comes to homestays. It is probably the best one out there.

The place is also great for the kids. We will definitely be going back again next time.
