Unbeatable sea views make this simple, hilltop property a great choice for a Goan beach holiday. Good Indian food on-site, plus being in Vagator means you’ll never go hungry!  

Ozran’s prime distinction is its 2 parallel rows of wooden, almost Swiss-style chalets, which spread across its nicely manicured, clifftop lawns. While your room may not be filled with Goan character or style, what you do get is a clean, functional space with mod-cons, well suited to couples or friends wanting an unfussy beach holiday where most of your time is spent outdoors (as it should be!).

Sip a glass of wine and appreciate the sunset from your veranda, the dining area or the small pool, before heading out to some of the area’s good bars and excellent restaurants. Vagator is not as manic as Baga or Calangute – a few km to the south – and only 15 mins across the river are more chilled areas like Morjim and Mandrem. The famous night markets are close by as is the bustling town of Mapusa.
