Comfortable, friendly Homestay

Carlos and family make this homestay exceptional. Not only are the rooms clean and comfortable with the usual amenities and a hearty breakfast, but the family are there with information and a local walking guidebook. The ever hospitable Carlos ensures that you are well looked after. We highly recommend this homestay.
Authentic. True Goan hospitality

Have stayed before. It’s authentic, has a true feel of Old Goa. Boats,spices,Portuguese and pirates. Balcony overlooking traditional lane. Huge rooms. Comfortable, clean, good housekeeping. Breakfast is included in their attached coffee house. Good service and quality food. Carlos the proprietor is a knowledgable and kind host. Huge insight into the culture and history of Panjim and the whole Goan area. Wonderful service provided. Ideally located. Highly recommended
Nice heritage room but not what we would think of as a homestay

Quirky room in an old building - we liked the way the room was adapted to the space - not your average room. To us the place operates more like a guest house than a homestay - lots of rooms and staff, meals served in a cafe also run by the same people. Room was clean and facilities good.

Historic, Charming, Comfortable

The Caravela Homestay is the pearl of old quarter Panaji. The on-site owner-manager, a pleasant, older, sharp-dressed Indian gentleman, was above-average kind, reasonable, and accommodating. The European-esque, first-floor cafe serves food and drink with care. The building is 200 years old but maintained and located only steps away from the river and a short walk from city center. Glad we found it!
