Sun, Sand, and Serenity: Top 5 Goa Beaches and Their Hidden Gem Stays
I want you to imagine this: sunbathing on a golden beach sipping something cool with gentle waves washing over your feet beneath the warm sun. In hues of orange and pink, the colourful skies of Goa seem to lie just beyond reach!
Welcome to Goa; as a proud aficionado of the sandy shores and Indian beaches in general, I have traversed through this shoreline to present what can be considered “creme De La Crème” beaches along it. That’s not all folks, because there are also some well-hidden gem stays that will make your holiday unforgettable, so grab that sunscreen. Let us get wet and then take shelter in one of the best hotels near Calangute Beach (keep reading to find out which one)!
Queen Of Beaches – Calangute Beach
This is the first stop on our journey through these sunny places; Calangute Beach famously known by many as “The Queen of Beaches”. And rightfully so! She stretches for miles on end a sunbather’s paradise where people engage in water sports activities and love it too! Situated just nearby was BloomSuites | Calangute- my comfy abode.
It heals someone like me who might just be contented to lie lazily on its sandy beach reading a good book with a sound soundtrack of waves pounding against the shorelines.
Baga Beach: Where The Party Never Ends
This is the next joint – Baga Beach – basically the life of a Goan party. During the day, Baga becomes an active site. The shore is lined with beach shacks that offer fresh seafood accompanied by cold beers. At nightfall, it turns into an active hub for vibrant parties.
There are performances by live bands while others are showcasing their prowess as dancers through fire displays in addition to DJ Sets which keep people dancing until the wee hours! If you’re a party animal looking to rest after the party, check out Bloom Boutique | Baga. Who knows, it might end up being your go-to resting place!
Candolim Beach: Tranquillity Meets Adventure
The next stop is Candolim Beach, just 10 minutes away from BloomSuites | Calangute – one of the best hotels near Calangute Beach. In comparison to its counterpart, Baga, which parties all night, Candolim is more peaceful but definitely not boring!
Here in Candolim, adventure and water sports are lovers. There is every imaginable adrenaline rush filled with banana boat rides or windsurfing sessions etc., which serve to entertain those who are into these kinds of activities. But I was really attracted by the dolphins! Make your way to one of the beachside shacks as the sunlight begins to fade so you can catch an incredible sunset view in the front row seat.
Casino Palms: Hippie Haven and A Dopamine Rush!
Casino Palms is one of the must-visit on-shore casinos in Goa. The electronic gaming experience here is stellar and addictive, to say the least. A gamer and gambler haven, prepare to experience the dopamine rush that comes with winning! As a super competitive person, I loved spending an evening there, trying to collect as many wins as I could for the evening and feeling heavily validated.
Britto’s Eatery In Baga Beach: For The Foodies!
For our last destination, during this tour around Goa’s sandy sequels, we shall be visiting Britto’s Restaurant located in Baga Beach itself. A place that amalgamates the flavours of a mezze platter with the sandy air of a beach is a place where you would definitely want to be!
Just a 12-minute drive from BloomSuites | Calangute, Britto’s is super famous in Goa and will leave your soul feeling full and contented.
BloomSuites | Calangute – An Ideal Abode After Your Tours
By the end of this beach hopping tour, you probably would want nothing more than a good rest in a soft bed in one of the best hotels near Calangute Beach, i.e., BloomSuites. BloomSuites stands at the very centre of all these fantastic beaches. In addition, nothing is more cooling than taking a dip in their swimming pool after a long day of sunbathing at the beach – or even better still, indulging oneself in a long bath provided in all their suites.
And oh! Food should not be left out either! Bloom’s on-site restaurant serves up a mix of local and international dishes that will please any palate. Well, my favourite was their prawn butter garlic.
A gem of a stay at Bloom Suites | Calangute
From Baga’s party vibe to Vagator’s serene beauty, Goa really does have a little something for everyone. However, the best memories are made outside of your comfort zone so go ahead- sign up for that water sport you’ve always been curious about; talk to another traveller on this train so packed with backpacks.
And, after a day of fun in the sun when all you’ve got on yourself is sand, with a bright smile, BloomSuites, one of the best hotels near Calangute beach, offers you the comfort zone where dreams come true by night because indeed nothing beats a good night sleep after such a pleasure of sunbathing till it rises the next morning! Happy travelling to Goa!
