My daughter and I spent 5 days at Bougainvillea Guest House and it was a great experience. The room was a one bedroom suite with separate living area. The bathroom was modern and very clean. The living area had a balcony looking out onto the tropical garden. We had a wonderful breakfast prepared each morning with either western or Indian foods, and the best masala omelets ever! Lourenco and his son arranged taxi transport, scooter rental, advised us on places to explore, and rescued our scooter when I had to leave it in town due to a medical urgency. They advised me on a chemist and the best hospital, even volunteering to drive us to the hospital in the middle of the night if needed. Bougainvillea was a very safe place for my daughter and I who were traveling alone, and walking distance to the beach, Fort Aguada, and many restaurants. I will definitely stay here again next time we travel to Sinquenim!

SUPERB HOST - ‘FEEL AT HOME’ VIBE
Lourenco was a superb host that continually went the extra mile to make us feel like family members. He upgraded our room, drove us to the cash point, the chemist and even to get a local SIM card! His family and staff were equally welcoming and we have decided to return for more of that ‘feel at home’ vibe. The location is also fantastic, it’s close to Fort Aguada and plenty of restaurants. It is also close to the beach but we have this a miss as it’s the monsoon season. The breakfast was also a delight. A must stay if you are planning on coming to Candolim!

This hotel is actually a villa divided up into apartments (no kitchen). The rooms are spacious and clean. However, the location is really remote and quiet. It is a five minute walk to the beach and Aguada Fort but anything else seems to be far and would need to get a taxi, which the staff can get for you. Uber doesn’t work in Goa! We booked this in a rush at the airport so we were quite surprised to see the location, however we were pleased by the cleanliness of the rooms given the fact that the property has so many surrounding trees I was sure a bug or lizard would jump out at me. Included breakfast is basic, just toast and Goan bread with some butter and jam and tea. We only stayed two nights. First night we ordered fast food because we were tired from our journey and didn’t know where to find anything. KFC is one of the few outlets that delivers! Second night we wanted to have fish so we asked the staff and within minutes one of them left to the market to get ingredients for our dinner. They cooked us up some delicious fresh fish that we’ve been talking about for a while now! At first when we arrived we were really hesitant about the property but it turned out quite okay.

Amazing quiet retreat.
The staff, room and location of Bougainvillea exceeded our expectations. Everyone who works there is friendly and very helpful. Our room was spacious and extremely clean. The location is very quiet (good for light sleepers) and only a short walk to the beach. I hope to return some day. Thank you Lorenzo and Bougainvillea staff for making our visit wonderful.

from being met at the airport, greeted by the owner on arrival. Staff fabulous, any request were complied with. At the edge of town, 5 mins from beach and 10 mins from the heart of candolim, I was very impressed.

Honeymoon
We loved this place, the cute and spacious suite. The moment we set foot it was relaxing and welcoming. Everything we needed was there for us. We couldn't explore much due to ill health but all that we could, was wonderful - the lush green, the cute kitchen and sitting area, the food restaurants around, the hired bike rides , the calming beach (which was about 10 minutes walk)... The best thing was, the owner Mr. Lourenco himself helped us in our visits to the hospital- the medical tests and what not! A feeling of being at home :)

Fantastic staff
Stayed here for 5 nights as a couple. Both tired and found the guesthouse very comfortable and welcoming. Situated in a quiet lane, about 10 minutes walk from nearest beach. Local area a bit scattered and not easy to walk for far up the main street due to lack of pavement, but plenty of good eating places. We went to old Goa with Mr. Mario the driver. We stayed in the Hibiscus suite - a lot of room there and a nice outside balcony. Up three flights of stairs.

No value for money and desceptive
I think it was not value for money paid even in low season. The hotel staff was good. There is no proper restaurant available. It just has a kitchen manned by a chief where you need to order in the morning if you would like to have lunch/ Dinner. There are hidden charges for everything. Like they did not inform us on the extra charges for breakfast. Breakfast included in the room rate was only juice and coffee/tea/ toast. Anything else was charged and this was not informed to us until the check out. The rooms are ok but for the price charged there are no amenities like telephone, LED TV, coffee/tea maker, WIFI in rooms etc which usually hotels of such standard and price have.

Hospitality at its best !!!
We booked the guest house for 3 nights in June 2014 after reading very positive reviews from previous guests. But still had some apprehension if all this could be true. After staying at the guest house, now I can also vouch for their hospitality and will stay again on the next trip to goa. Care is taken in every aspect from cleanliness of the rooms or fresh flowers or helping you on your taxi hire or by just coming out on the road with umbrellas if you are getting out of the car and its drizzling. Special mention about Lourenco and Freddie, who are warm and helpful to you. You have to inform in advance if you want to have lunch or dinner in the guest house, as everything is prepared fresh (tasteful food). This could be a minor problem if you have a sudden change in plan and want to have dinner in guest house without informing earlier like in our case due to heavy rains. But here also, the staff go out of their way to help you out as Lourenco drove me to a restaurant (there are many restaurants nearby) for taking a takeaway and then brought me back to the guest house. Doubt if any other hotel will provide you such services.
