My husband and I stayed at goCo for four days and it was a wonderful experience. The property is absolutely stunning and Raj was so kind and generous with his time and made us feel at home instantly. The staff are also wonderful and friendly. The property has beautiful and very comfortable rooms and a gorgeous garden with a pool with plenty of cosy seating areas perfect for chilling, reading and catching up with friend or family. Raj is a true local with so many recommendations for nearby cafes, restaurants, bars and beaches. We had a glorious time and will definitely come back. The place is a home away from home right in the heart of Goa close to so many hot spots to visit. We would recommend this home stay to anyone and wish we could stay longer!! Thank you so much to Raj, Andrea, Arif and Jolly for making us feel so at home in Goa. We look forward to staying in future. Love Samantha and Ranjan
