I'm so glad that we found Villa Alina and that it was available for us - what a wonderful villa! It exceeded our, high, expectations and we had a wonderful time. Henry and his crew were extremely helpful and we felt like spoilt kids throughout the entire week.

I was not dissapointed with the cottage when I arrived as everything exceeded my expectations. The standard of cleanliness was very high and maintained throughout my stay. I was particularly impressed with the Spa facilities that were just a short 5 minute walk from the property. All of the restaurants that we ate in were fantastic and great value for money. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to stay. In fact, I already have!

The house is stunning and perfect for a family holiday. Close to the beach but with an amazing pool it gives you all the options and has a perfect spot for watching sunsets. The rooms are really comfortable and the service from the staff is excellent. We opted for breakfasts which were very good - a mix of British and Indian. I would definitely recommend this villa and would love to go again.

We had a wonderful holiday in Goa in October and it was made perfect by our accommodation at the Villa Alina. Our holiday began by being collected at the busy airport by a comfortable car - organised by the owners of the villa. Although the drive to the property is almost an hour the journey is constantly fascinating. At the Villa we were given a warm welcome by the staff and an introduction to the house, the house rules and how things work i.e air conditioning, lights etc. It was clear that we could just ask if there was anything we needed or any information we had forgotten! The layout of the Villa is just as described with each of the four bedrooms being equally well appointed and each with their own bathroom. The living room and kitchen are comfortable and well equipped and the outside area and pool were more than we could have hoped for - especially the pool which is divine. For those who have stayed in holiday villas before there is everything you could want in the kitchen. The Villa was spotless when we arrived and was kept beautifully clean and tidy throughout our stay. The rooms and the pool and all the outside areas were cleaned regularly, our linen and towels were changed and even our laundry was done for us. I have never had such a relaxing time! The local shops were well stocked and are a short and cheap taxi ride away. We found an amazing choice of restaurants both within walking distance and, again, quick taxi rides away. The beach, as promised, is only a couple of minutes walk and it is, we know from experience, one of the nicest beaches in Goa. Our children are teenagers and we felt they were perfectly safe to shop and go to the beach and the internet cafe (!) on their own. They loved their holiday and their independence. We had a fantastic stay at Villa Alina and have already recommended it to many of our friends. We cant wait to be able to visit again.

Our extended family of 11 people very much enjoyed our stay and would definately like to come back one day. The staff at the villa are very helpful and friendly. The villa is with a lot of architectural charm, clean spacious and well located near the beach as well as a pleasant street with restaurants and shopping. Our favourite place was Cafe Roma right on the beach. Go there for breakfast, lunch and dinner :). Small children will enjoy it too as they can play in the sand right next to you. Thanks for a lovely holiday!

this is a fabulous villa right near the beach, ideal for a family or couples. The staff are first class, very friendly. The villa was spotlessly clean. It is an ideal spot very close to all the bars and places to eat; we loved having drinks on the terrace before going out to eat. WE HAD A GREAT HOLIDAY AND IT WAS ALL DOWN TO THE LOCATION OF THE VILLA which made our holiday. We would recomment this villa to anyone and we would love to use this villa again. IT WAS FIRST CLASS. We thank the family for letting us use their family home.

As a party of 13 including 3 children below the age of 6 we had an excellent time at Villa Alina. The villa was even better than we had hoped for and the staff was very kind and efficient. It will be difficult to find a better villa in Goa! Thank you for an amazing week!

On arriving at Vila Alina I was amazed at how beautiful the house was. It is spacious, has a lovely veranda with a view of the sunset in the distance - the perfect setting for a meal in the evening. We took advantage of the breakfast service every morning and also enjoyed delicious Goan food in the evening cooked by the maid. The beach is a stone's throw away, where you can find shacks during peak season - great for lunch on the beach as well as drinks in the evening whilst listening to the sound of the waves. Vila Alina is situated in the perfect location - there are a few shops near where you can change money, buy suncream/swimwear/food etc as well as some really good restaurants. There are always friendly taxi drivers nearby if you want to visit Panjim/Anjuna market/other beeches, who are very reasonably priced. The beauty about staying at Vila Alina is that there is an efficient, friendly and helpful housekeeper, who is always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that your holiday is perfect. I will DEFINITELY be going back to Vila Alina - it was the most amazing holiday I've been on and staying Vila Alina made it extra special!

What a fabulous 2 weeks! A really memorable experience in the most luxurious surrounding! Beautiful beach, wonderful pool, great shacks! Thoroughly recommend Aggies! We all feel so relaxed and have recharged our batteries thanks to the amazing team at Vila Alina. Top honours to Laxmi, Thomas and Henry for their wonderful support, service and incredible dinners! A great big thank you from all of us and best wishes for the future. xxx
