Our travel bucket lists know it – no matter where we go, Goa, the oh-so-breathtaking beach island of India, will always have a special place in our hearts. But what also comes next, plucked from the collection of our fondest memories, is the heart of Goa – Assagao.
Perfectly nestled between quaintness and the typical Goan buzz, Assagao, with its whitewashed churches and age-old Portuguese mansions, is the most up-and-coming neighborhood of Goa.
And what’s it like to vacation, here? Let’s just put it this way – the golden pot at the end of a rainbow? That’s Assagao! Brace yourself to expect a revelation as you gaze at sunset(s) on the breathtaking beaches of Baga, Vagator, Calangute or Candolim, or enjoy your very own ‘Dear Zindagi’ moment as you walk aimlessly on the charming streets of this town.
That being said, let’s have a look at some of the best private villas in and around Assagao that are less than 30 minutes from exceedingly serene Goan beaches, most happening nightclubs and of course, cafes that offer food so yum-yum!
