Lonely Planet Review

Quotes It's a big statement to make, but it's fair to say that this is the grandest place to stay in all of Goa. There is nothing wanting here, except perhaps more time. The Leela is, quite simply, 152 rooms on 75 acres of pure luxury.

An enormous expanse of manicured Goan perfection with rooms of varying degrees of decadence. Villas at the 'extremely' end of the decadometer are sublime; they overhang the artificial lagoon and have their own plunge pool. The ultra-exclusive Club Pool suites hit the 'unfathomably decadent' zone on the swish scale; indoor pools, open air showers, private terraces, individual espresso machines, and (it goes without saying) private butlers. Buggies weave through the complex escorting guests from their residence through the 12-hole golf course to the private beach or to any of the eight dining facilities (try Riverside by the River Sal or Susegado by the Arabian sea). The bigger picture that the Leela's creators were striving for certainly came to fruition in this opulent, tasteful and unique resort. Rooms and grounds are perfect in every nano detail; they look digitally enhanced even when you're up close.

Author Tip

Take your pick of breakfast venues and then recline by one of the pools for a while. Ask Jeeves to arrange a buggy to take you to the beach in the afternoon. Sit in a luxuriant daybed under the shade of a palm tree and wait for sunset. Then wait for the night lighting to resplendently light the Leela.

Curious Fact

One of the villa rooms is left entirely vacant for a chairman, but is still cleaned daily even in his absence!
