Where to stay in Betalbatim Beach

The short answer

Best areas to stay in Betalbatim Beach

Area by area

Betalbatim Beach neighbourhoods compared

1. 01

   Nanu Beach end, on the sand

   Best for: Travellers who want to be on the beach

   Good to know: The few beachfront stays are at this end, close to the sand and the shacks. Quiet, but you pay for the location, and the walk across the sand to the sea can be long in the heat.

2. 02

   Ranvaddo, on the lanes to the beach

   Best for: Budget travellers and those who like a village setting

   Good to know: Small resorts and guesthouses such as Alagoa Resort lie about 500 to 600 metres from the sand. Quiet and affordable, but the walk is over lanes and sand; ask about transport.

3. 03

   Thondwaddo, among the paddy fields

   Best for: Families and groups who want a pool and a spa

   Good to know: Resorts such as Beleza By The Beach and Goa Villagio sit in garden grounds a short walk or ride from the beach. Peaceful and green, but you will use a shuttle or taxi to reach the sea.

4. 04

   Colva, the next village south

   Best for: Travellers who want more shops, restaurants and nightlife

   Good to know: Colva is a short drive and has a busier beach road with a market. A stay there makes Betalbatim a day trip rather than a base.
