Best Beach Hut resort in Goa – Rococo Pelton, Palolem, Goa, India.

SOUTH GOA – Luxurious stay
NORTH GOA – Budget stay

Although there are many resorts in Goa, South goa feels calm and clear which makes it more favourable for family travelers. We enjoy less crowded places, calm atmosphere, fresh air and no chaos places. North goa is more of Dj and disco and other stuffs happening. here in this article i am going to share my experience with our vacation to Goa.

Me, my 3 year old daughter and my husband love to travel. But my small girl at times cannot keep up with the new challenge that she may have to face. so preparing for the trip all in advance becomes more challenging and fun for me.

1. 1. WHERE DID WE GO?

We went to Palolem beach situated in canacona in southern Goa, India. International tourist find this place very attractive. November to march is the period where the booking often becomes full. Palolem is the best beach in south goa as the sand is white here and the waters are very clear. we prefered staying in beach huts this time. Able to see the sunsets every evening which was one of the best part of this vacation.

2. WHICH RESORT?

The resort we stayed at was ROCOCO PELTON, Beach huts property. It is situated 40 kms away from madgaon railway station. We called the owner directly to fix our deals, which is a better option. The owner is a very polite and humble person. Attends your every concern without hesitation.

The surrounding neighborhood is also very safe. we rented a bike and would hangout till 9 or 10 pm at night. It falls between kind of an Island beach. where you can see dolphin point and monkey point. All the local shopping, restaurants are close by and vendors are good at English and Hindi for communication.

The resort is very safe by all means. Very decent party atmosphere. No tantrums or noises. All the staff were very helpful.

3. HOW TO REACH?

We took Madgaon Rajdhani express and preferred overnight travel. It was an AC cabin and the journey was comfortable. Amid this pandemic no blankets were offered to us. so, it felt really freezing inside the AC cabin. we boarded 11:30 train at night and reached madgaon station at 8 am. From the station we took a cab to reach our destination. It was 1 hr 30 mins drive. Me and my daughter got nausea due to this travel. RTPCR test required for non-vaccinated people. Vaccine report required for vaccinated people. These were the state entry permits to be cleared before exiting railway station or Airway or Waterway or Roadway to enter Goa as on 2021.
