Travel & Hotels Goa
A lot of great places to stay at, but more often than not, you
will find that all your searches result in websites that do your
travel/accommodation bookings. While this is good, it can leave a
holiday maker frustrated. In this section, we will add direct
contacts of hotels, resorts etc., so that one can choose to use
travel agents and/or call/email directly.
Apart from alcohol, which is very cheap, Goa is one of the more
expensive states in India to stay. Though for a foreign tourist it
is still very cheap. Peak season, which is from November to late
March the prices are very high. Especially in December, 5 star hotel
rates rates range from around Rs.20,000 - Rs.35,000 per night some
rates go even higher. All touristic places charge more in the
season.

Splurge
There are plenty of star hotels in Goa. So, depending on the
location, take your pick. Local environmental campaigners have been
critical of the impact of a number of the luxury hotels in
particular (apart from some others), specially because of the impact
they are perceived to have on the environment, their tendency to
build close to the sea (sometimes violating zoning laws) and their
demand on local resources.
