Enjoy the life of an aristocratic Goan family of yore at Casa Britona, where the quiet village neighbourhood brings tranquillity and the wash of the river alongside eases you into a state of relaxation. It’s the real ‘sussegado’ life here – laid back and enjoyable just as the Goans live it. Casa Britona is a 300-year-old Portuguese Goan home located in a typical fishing village that continues to hold fast to the charm of traditional Goa. Kissing the river close by is the church of Nossa Senhora de Penha de França, built in 1626, offering an absolutely splendid view of the twinkling lights of Panjim and a hope that your vacation could be frozen in time.
With Panjim City being in close vicinity, fun can never be far. Whether it’s the casinos, an array of café and restaurants or the popular North Goa beaches and other tourist hot spots, Casa Britona offers you best of both the worlds.
Staying at Casa Britona is like being in your own heritage villa overlooking the river. Antique furniture and furnishings bedeck every room, yet inconspicuously conceal some very modern amenities including air-conditioning and bathroom fittings. All rooms have a private sit out with a view of pristine surroundings. The garden area boasts of a wonderful pavilion where the whole family can sit back and enjoy some quality time together.
While our cooks are always there at the Villa to take care of your daily meals, our Executive Chef can also be made available on demand, to make your stay even more delightful and delicious.
In Panjim city, you can try your luck at the floating casinos, or tingle your taste buds at some of the famous restaurants and get a taste of local Goan as well as global cuisine. You can also indulge in some guided tours or just randomly take a stroll in the Latin Quarter of Panjim known as Fontainhas to get a glimpse of the Portuguese era where every colourful house is a storyteller. If you want to explore the cultural heritage of Goa, the churches and monuments of Old Goa and Divar Island can offer you that immersive experience. The famous Candolim beach and a wide variety of shacks and restaurants aren’t too far either to ensure your vacation was a happening one indeed.
