Great location right in the middle of Cavelossim nestled on the banks of the River Sal and a 5 minute walk from the beach. We had a look round them last year and liked what we saw so are staying there in March

we now have that hotel added to our reviews here so hopefully it won't be long before it gets its first review.

We spent 4 weeks at the Haathi Nov/Dec 05 and had agreat time that's what we are paying £600 for the 2 weeks which I think is a great price. There are also pictures etc. on the lazydays website (though a lot more expensive)

yeah went 2 years ago to the Haathi. My parents are there for 3 months. They go to haathi every year as they have timeshare. They end up a perfect customer for haathi timeshare to bring potential buyers to. My parents are just very honest with them on how much they love the place. They end up getting about 2-4 weeks for free if the people buy so it's a good deal all round!
They are from Airdrie scotland and are either there or in Royal Palms for the odd week. I managed to get 2 x 2 bed villas for £300 a week at Luisa. It looks so nice! privately so it sounds a very good deal. There are 8 of us going out on Jan 12th for 2 weeks.Where in scotland you from?

Hi I am sure we met your mum and dad last year (Nov/Dec) we used to sit by the pool next to them. Ask them if they remember a couple from the highlands with a 7 year old daughter.
p.s. If it was them tell your dad his football team are still rubbish :D

lol, sounds like them. Alex and Phyllis Ross?
They are in India now doing a tour and will go to Haathi on 20 Nov until Feb.They love it so much so why not. I think if they like Luisa when we go they will opt for a few weeks there for a change. This is a great site, found it so helpful. I will mention to them when they call, they will remember you i am sure. They own caravans in Dumfries, that may ring a bell with you?

hi tightjock we are staying at luisa by the sea in march/april. we arrive on the 24th. would be nice to meet up and have a chat,possibly a drink! .

We've just spent a couple of weeks in a villa at Luisa- it was great! The pools were both dry unfortunately so we had to use the one across the road at the posh Don Sylvia.

The villas are well located, just minutes from the sea and river and plenty of good eating options all within say a 10 minute walk.

We didn't get a particularly cheap deal but i now have a contact for a private owner so I know what I'll do if we go again :wink:

Hi sweetchilli,
Was it a lady called Sophie by any chance at Luisa?
Got a really good deal from her.
Reply
No, it wasn't Sophie, it was a french woman who had worked in India for 20 years and stayed. She lets the villa out to tourist in the peak season and lives in it herself through the wet season. The villas look pretty similar, some looked after better than others but all in a good location and near the pools (if they are full!).

Lazydays were fine, not cheap, but the ever helpful Sammy and his lovely smile was a bonus.
