Description from the owner:
Barbara's Home is set in a half an acre of its own lush private gardens, with mature palm trees giving natural shade. There is a seating area to one side of the lawns so you can sit and watch the sun drop below the trees in the distance while enjoying a cold beer. There is a swinging seat if you want to soak up the sun rays in the peaceful atmosphere of the garden.

The apartments are all self contained and are in our separate Guest house with all three having separate entrances via a patio/terrace. On entry you are in the sitting room of the apartments which leads via the hallway into 1/2 bedroom/s, kitchen with fridge, toaster, kettle, calor gas hob and dinning table plus crockery, utensils etc and a bathroom. Bed linen and towels are provided, changed twice weekly or when you require.

The apartments will be cleaned every day by our staff, who lives near the site in their own purpose built accommodation.

Palolem Beach is a 5-10 minute stroll via the secluded back track taking you past the paddy fields and local houses, or catch the local bus right outside to the main shopping strip of Palolem Beach. Get off at the last stop.. Once on the beach there are plenty of beach bars to choose from and water sport activities.

The local village of Chaudi is a 20-25 minute walk, where you will find a selection of shop all used by the locals. There is a good supermarket past the fish market where you can get all the basics and more. If you are loaded up the taxi stand is one block from the supermarket and a ride back to the apartments cost around 50-100 rupees. We can organise rickshaws for you if you like.

But hey you are on holiday so if you dont want to cook there are many excellent restaurants just a taxi ride away offering great food and Entertainment.

My Stay At Barbara's Home, Palolem, Goa   
 
I stayed for a week in the 2 bedroom apartment at Barbara's home over the Xmas period. I don't normally post feedback on places I've stayed before, but I felt compelled to do so on this occasion.
The welcome I received from Barbara, her husband and staff was second to none. They provided a happy, clean and comfortable environment with gardens to match.
Nothing was too much trouble and they made sure all of their guests were happy, even providing a food and drinks party for us all to get to

My Stay At Barbara\'s Homes In Goa   
 
My family and I stayed at Barbara\'s Home for the Easter Holiday this year.The welcome from Barbara, her husband Magan and the Staff was unbelievable. The guest house was unbelievably beautiful and clean to the British standard no doubt! The day before we were leaving to go back home Barbara threw a little gathering for us including all her staffs, she provided lovely foods,etc for all of us. We really enjoyed our stay at her\'s and we are all going back in December this year with our friend

Barbara\'s House   
 
We stayed 2 months at Barbara\'s house and we have really enjoyed our stay. The flat is very nice, clean and confortable. The balcony is very fresh and luminous. It\'s very well situated, 5 mn walk from the beach and 20 mn from the main street in Palolem. We enjoyed so much our stay. Barbara, her husband and not forgetting \"Raja\" the dog were so friendly and lovely people. We are going back this year again for 2 months .

Barbara\'s Home!   
 
I feel grateful to have stayed in a private, quiet, clean, easily beach accessible and family oriented lodging.

Far from home and a single woman living in India, Barbara gave me the TLC I welcome.

Certainly, I recommend staying with Barbara and her family!

I really cannot thank Barbara and her family enough their kindness.
