I am still looking I am quite shocked again at the prices some people are charging for 3 weeks for 2 people some places want over £800 .

yes vegasone prices have definitely gone up, my neighbour at villa near me charges almost 1k sterling a week over the xmas period i think!!!! but from £500 to £800 a week at other times and last year she was booked right through till May!!! and they were mostly Brits!!!

We have booked a week in Feb at Regal Park its £350 they are lovely apartments
though,and have 2 bedrooms.washing machine, fridge freezer microwave ect.
that seems to be what they are charging for next season,2009 it cost £250 so a big
jump

Try Angela's Guest House, Candolim, virtually opposite Kingfisher Villa - can thoroughly recommend it. The one bed apartments are large and comfortable, they also have studio apartments. I think we paid 850rps per night last year and as far as I know prices havent increased for the coming season.
PM me for the e mail address if you want it.

Still looking apparantley even though I had booked somewhere .... any more ideas please PM me or write them on here

Hiya, I have just phoned Arthur at Angelas Guest House, he doesnt think he received e mails. No problem with an apartment in February, just needs the dates and he will book it (850rps per night). He can also collect you from airport etc - nice big comfy taxi that he drives very carefully

Let me know asap and I will send full contact details and address and I will also phone him to confirm dates

I emailed him and asked 'hi do you have any apartemts available 16th jan for 3 weeks in Candolim' I then said what I was loooking for and he replied 2 days later his reply was.

yes



I need to see pics

Sorry I havent got any photos, this is a new laptop and havent transferred them over. He has got a facebook page Arthur Couthino, and |I think there are photos on there.
I will try and describe as best I can.
The house is an old Portugese type, set back from the main Candolim - Sinquerim road in a pretty garden. It is very close to Kingfisher Villa, Tiger Bar is directly opposite, there is an internet cafe there. Shivers restaurant is just behind the property. Other nearby good restaurants are Bombras, Tuscany Gardens, Curry House.
I think there are a total of 4 apartments and 3 studios.
'Our' apartment consists of roomy lounge with sofa and 2 chairs, coffee table, cable TV, balcony. Bathroom is shower, loo and hand basin - again quite roomy. Big basic kitchen with fridge, if you ask Arthur will arrange for kettle, coffee, water etc to be available for you.
Bedroom has double wardrobes, bedside cabinets, large double bed (typical Goan style) and there is another balcony.
All floors are marble tile. There is no air conditioning but fans work well.
We havent stayed in one of the studios but again they are the same high standard
Bedding and towels are changed every other day and everywhere is cleaned within an inch of its life. It really is immaculate.
Arthur's mum runs Angelas, he lives there with his little daughter.
They are a lovely, lovely family, nothing is too much trouble - you just have to ask. On the other hand they are not intrusive.
It really is quite a special little place, a real home from home, their customers return year after year. We have been staying there now for 4 years, wish I had found it sooner.
We arrive on 26th January for 3 weeks, so if you do book we'll see you there!!!!
