About this property

Amrapali - House of Grace is a 100-year-old lovingly restored Portuguese home on the banks of the river Zuari. Its hallways are long and luxuriously designed for lounging indoors while experiencing the lush greenery of the outdoors. The luxurious homestay is run by an efficient team that will help you in all your needs from spa bookings or healing therapies, Goan cooking classes and tours of Old Goa, Fountainhas & the neighbouring Chorao & Divar Islands. The menu is prepared a la minute and it is curated and designed by a Le Cordon Bleu chef. The kitchen uses primarily local ingredients, only clean oils and Himalayan pink salt and follows slow living practices that include fermentation and pickling to create a menu that is delicious and wholesome. Please note, we have well-mannered 5 rescue dogs on the property so only dog lovers are welcome.
