I like Mac too. Other locations that I know about are Colonia de Braganza and Highland Beach Resort.

Dangui opticians in Mapusa market area is the one we went to. They also have a branch on Calangute high street.

if you put tailor and then optician into "search" and "goa" in the forum you will find a lot of recommendations as well.

Hi Gemma
How much did it cost at the MD for a suit? Last one we had made was 7 years ago! Prices may have changed a bit since then..... :roll:

you'll get a top quality suit from Mac for about £120- £150

Hi Louise, sorry we havent bought a suit from Mac tailors, but know there is one within the grounds of the hotel.
But Martin has given you an idea. I think they are a bit more expensive, but very good quality (so ive heard)

You'll get a great suit made at Renton Manor, Arpora from Sams Tailors at a 1/3rd of that. My Dry CLeaner said it was the most well made "foreign Made" suit she'd seen 8)

Where is Renton Manor in relation to MD? Price sounds good! :lol:

Turn right out of MD to the end of the road then right again, past All Spice then turn right again....

We use Versace tailors in Candolim. On the main road near turning for Wispering Palms.
Prices vary from £60 to £90 depending on quality of cloth used.

I ahd thought about the tailors but never considers replacing specs while there. I need to replace varifocals with tinted leses and my reading/computer specs. Are these likely to be available and if so any idea of cost?

interesting.. I'm actually getting a new pair of glasses (specs?) made just before our trip, for the trip. I should probably hold off and buy them there! Probably save some.

Does anyone know what it would cost for a decent pair of glasses, plastic lightweight lenses etc? I'm not picky on brand just needs to look like something current.

Something decent here would be $400 (USD), I think that's about £200.
