Beachfront holiday rentals in Santa Cruz

We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb. The flat was neat, clean, and beautifully maintained—just like the pictures. The self check-in process was smooth and hassle-free. All the amenities were in excellent condition and made the stay very comfortable. The internet was reliable and worked well for office tasks—great for a workation. Almas was an excellent host—always helpful and prompt in responding. The beach is around 900 meters away and walkable. There are two routes—one for cars and a shorter walking path. I’d suggest avoiding the walking path at night due to street dogs. A small suggestion: adding a clock in the hall or room would give the space a more homely touch. Overall, one of the best stays I’ve had in the Baga/Calangute area. Highly recommended!

We had a lovely time at Devika's place. Not only was it really close to Mandrem beach but the rooms were comfortable and the garden space was perfect for our family. There are some parts of the house like low balconies that are a little unsafe for kids so they need to be watched 24x7 but besides that the home is beautiful and a great place for a family getaway. Devika is also super responsive and very accomodating and understanding. Thanks Devika for a memorable holiday :)

it was very pleasant place to stay over..can feel proper vibes of goa ...definitely recommendable

Blue Palm C-11 Villa is a charming and peaceful property, just a stone's throw away from the market, restaurants, and beaches, all within a 5-10 minute walk. The villa is clean and well-maintained, with a polite and helpful caretaker always ready to assist. We had four toddlers with us, so a fully functional kitchen was essential, and it felt just like home. The rooms were nice, and the spacious living room could easily accommodate 7-8 people for relaxing and chatting. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend the C-11 Villa.

good apartment just few minutes away from the beach

The place is much prettier than what is shown in the photos. It is very clean and has all the amenities one could need. The host is responsive and there is a caretaker to help us on site. The location is good too- the villa is in a quiet gated community, but the main road has lots of cafes and stalls. We had a pleasant stay there.

it was great experience at this place

Had an awesome stay host was super chill and helpful, Location couldn’t be better, everything was close by. The security guard was a total legend—always there to help with my scooty and cabs.

Some stays leave you with memories, but staying with Mr. Dicosta and his family left us with warmth in our hearts. From the very first moment — when they came all the way to receive us at the ferry — we knew this wasn’t just a regular Airbnb experience. It was something truly special. Mr. Dicosta welcomed us with cold beers, and he made sure my mother felt at home with her favorite cold drinks. But what truly moved us was his wife’s kindness — she walked just to get chicken patties especially for us, a gesture so small yet so full of love that it will stay with us forever. It didn’t feel like we were guests. It felt like we were visiting long-lost family. Their kindness, generosity, and open hearts turned our trip into something we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Mr. Dicosta and family, for not just opening your home to us — but also your hearts. We came as strangers and left with lifelong memories.

Excellent Family-Friendly Stay in Goa! Rating: 5/5 We had a fantastic time at this beautiful property in Goa with my family! The property is extremely clean and well-maintained. The secured parking space was a huge plus, and caretaker Sonu was always just a call away. John is a great host, super responsive and ensured our stay was comfortable. The property has all necessary amenities, and the spacious air-conditioned living room was perfect for relaxing. The super clean washroom and balcony with pool view were added bonuses! The location is fantastic, making it easy to explore Goa's beautiful beaches and attractions. One minor suggestion: consider replacing the induction cooktop with a gas stove. As a family, we sometimes needed to cook proper meals quickly. Overall, we highly recommend this property for a comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable stay in Goa. The host's exceptional hospitality makes this property truly stand out! We can't wait to come back and stay here again!

A great, clean and hygiene place to say. We had gone for a business trip and our requirements were taken care like internet etc. Very close to beach, the privacy of the property and good and supporting staff made the experience very comfortable with full of joy. Every staff were very approachable and available whenever required for cleaning, admin assistance etc. Well maintained property with luxury, privacy, clean and close to beach

No words, too good airbnb. for sure will visit again

Beautiful property in a great location—just a short walk to the beach. The home was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was super responsive and made everything easy from check-in to check-out. Would definitely stay here again!

Amazing place and very good staff.

This place is really very beautiful and felt like home away from home. Once u checked in then u didn’t have to worry about anything and call care taker as everything is well co-ordinated in premises. Special mention of beautiful Infinity Swimming Pool which gives u amazing natural view. We stayed for 2 days and Mr Yadav who is care taker and housekeeping staff, Bldg Security, all were very co-operative. This place is definitely worth staying. And will surely recommend it.

Clifford's Airbnb was a well maintained place with the required basic facilities in it. It's a 2BHK space with a small sitting area in front of the door where you can chill with your friends. There is space for private car parking but the only thing is that the entry space is a bit narrow. Location is very good, it's very close to Ashvem beach, there are general stores and a shopping market nearby the place. Overall I would recommend to select this place if you're staying in North Goa.

It was a great stay, the house is well curated having in mind the smallest thing a guest would need during the stay. The kitchen is well equipped with all the utensils and stoves. The beach is right in front of the house and very peaceful. Ps: Allen is super professional and accommodating.

My parents had a wonderful stay at Mr. D’Souza’s place! The home was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was incredibly hospitable, responsive, and made sure everything was perfect for their visit. They truly felt at home. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great stay! Would definitely book again in the future.

We had such a wonderful time staying at this property! It really exceeded our expectations in every way. The location is fantastic, just a stone's throw away from Candolim Beach, and having a lovely pool on-site was such a bonus. Matasha was an exceptional host, always friendly and attentive. She keeps the house in impeccable condition, and her thoughtfulness made our stay truly memorable. Since it was my husband's birthday during our stay and she sent us a delicious cake, which was such a kind gesture. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay in Goa. We can't wait to visit again!

It’s a great property 1 min walk from the beach. The rooms are aesthetic, neat and clean. The host was very understanding and on request we were allowed to do late checkout. Definitely coming back again. Thanks Gaurav, Aakash, Swapnil and team.

1. Great place to stay at affordable price 2. At walkable distance from candolim beach 3. Good swimming pool to have fun 4. Host is very caring and communicated well 5. All the electronic things are available with good number of utensils All in All a great experience and lot of memories made ❤️

Alex is a superhost. Very helpful, always responded within minutes. The best part of stay was the location. just in front of the Ashwem view point. one can enjoy the serenity of the sea sitting at the balcony. There were lot of food joints nearby. Alex also helped to get cab for airport drop and local sightseeing. Overall a great stay .

Our stay was nothing short of magical ! Nestled just 20 meters from the beach, this charming retreat offers direct access through a private gate, making every sunrise and sunset feel even more special. The warm hospitality of Vikram and Ram made our experience truly delightful—they were always ready to assist with a friendly smile. Freeda’s thoughtful recommendations for nearby shacks and shops added a wonderful touch to our trip. She was always in touch and went out of her way to accommodate us an option for late check-out as our flight was at night. If you’re seeking tranquility by the shore, this is the perfect haven. Would surely come back soon. P.S. people living in other cottages are very friendly!
