Again the uniqueness of Coco comes into play. In their desire to give you the best possible stay they’ve sourced, tested, selected and listed the best activities out there.

Out and about:

Options range from Spice Plantation visits, yacht and speed boat hire, and crab fishing along the backwater river near the village, the latter conducted with local fisherman for a truly authentic experience.

Guided walks are offered with local expert PD, an ex-advertising executive who knows Goa inside out. He can customise trips but his most popular ones include: Waterfall visits; Village walks; Foodie trails experiencing village food as the locals do; Bar-hopping through Goa’s local bars (with lots of the potent feni); Architectural walks through colonial mansions, churches and temples; Trekking with nights in the jungle and visits to caves; Photography walks and bird-watching.

Water sports are available, as are shopping and beach trips. The brochure/guide book has everything listed and everything can be discussed.

Rejuvenate:

For those who want to take it easier there’s an Ayurvedic Spa service with authentic Ayurvedic treatments from Josef, one of the most knowledgable and skilled therapists in India. Treatments includes detoxifying salt scrubs, refloxology, massages with special oils, clay face packs and intensive three- or five-day skin and muscle treatments.

Coco also runs exercise sessions with Pilates expert Sherry, which are customised to your body type and include a mix of yoga, pilates and dynamic stretches.
