St Regis Goa Resort & Spa

The St Regis Goa is arguably one of the most luxurious beach resorts in Goa and enjoys a tranquil setting along the Cavelossim Beach in southern Goa, which is regarded as one of the most serene beaches in all of Goa. Sandwiched between the azure blue sea and the meandering Sal River, the St Regis Goa is set amongst 75 acres of lush, beautifully landscaped gardens punctuated with swaying palms and freshwater lagoons.

This peaceful sanctuary stands out with a striking, opulent façade that effortlessly combines 18th-century Portuguese influences with 14th-century Indian Vijayanagara School of Architecture and offers accommodation in 206 spacious rooms and suites that are thoughtfully designed and tastefully furnished. Whilst the lead-in category Lagoon Terrace Room features a private balcony overlooking the lagoon, the upgraded Conservatory Premiere Rooms feature a small day room instead of the balcony and do not offer any outdoor space. Further up, the Club Wing is designed as a hotel-within-a-hotel and offers contemporary-style suites with views of the golf course and the Arabian Sea beyond. Guests staying in the Club Wing will also have access to the exclusive Club Lounge, a separate outdoor pool and butler service. The Manor Pool Suite and the Caroline Astor Suite are ideal for families travelling with toddlers as they feature an extra day bed and extended living spaces. For those who wish to splurge, the two top villas will undoubtedly appeal: while the John Jacob Astor Villa features two bedrooms and a plunge pool, the Presidential Villa features three bedrooms and a larger private pool.

At The St Regis Goa, there are a total of six restaurants and bars, providing a range of options to choose from, including Oliveto, a speciality restaurant serving authentic Italian cuisine, sumptuous seafood at Susegado-Beachside; breakfast and light snacks at Miri—an all-day dining outlet, and afternoon tea, late night cocktails in The Drawing Room. Other facilities at The St Regis Goa include a spa specialising in Indian Ayurveda and international treatments, a 12-hole golf course, an inviting outdoor pool, three floodlit tennis courts and croquet and badminton facilities.
