Dwarka Beach Resort

South Goa


A beach hut for ₹13,000 – no way! The huts are certainly very nice and most are sea-facing, terracing down the hillside to the beach side of the lagoon. Boutique is the word here, with only 10 huts and lots of personal attention. And meals are included. But ₹13,000? Unsurprisingly, the restaurant and bar is exclusive to guests.
