There is a H/T member who's stayed his piccy's are in the photo forum can't remember his name the place is just lovely i've been myself but not stayed,however i find it expensive to stay(Thats just my view) think 2 nights is the minimum stay well worth a visit.Its quite a distant from candolim taxi would be best we went on a scooter not the best way very sore behinds.
You can sit on the terrace and enjoy the views.
I've added some photos to the "Terecol" album.
If you feel adventurous - go further north another 5 miles or so into Maharashtra. There you will find Reddi Fort and "Paradise Beach" - absolutely no shacks. The fishermen will land on the beach and sell you fish from the day's catch, which you can then barbecue on an open fire on the beach - magical.

I think the bumpy road up past the quarry will put most people off so it's probably safe for a while yet.

Goldenflipflop is right about the road - it passes an iron-ore quarry and crushing plant.
Andy Taz..........My Wife and I had the great pleasure of staying at Fort Tiracol in January. What a beautiful setting, all the rooms look out over the Arabian Sea, and nearby Keri beach is idyllic, a couple of shacks but otherwise quiet and peaceful. There is a colony of monkeys occupying the headland below the fort, it was amazing to observe them at playing around in the trees at such close quarters. There are 7 rooms in total 5 standard and 2 suites all named after days in the week. We where lucky enough to have one of the suites - FRIDAY - we had our own private terrace, sitting room, bedroom, and a bathroom with full length windows opening out on to the inner courtyard. The courtyard also houses a beautiful church St Anthonys, which is still used by the locals. Evening meals on the restaurant terrace were fantastic, service was excellent. It was a bit expensive (for Goa) but well worth it..........Regards...Barney.

Andy.........As I said expensive Standard rooms 5000/- per night. Suites 7500/- per night. Over the Xmas period they went up to 8000/- and 12000/- respectively, but it was still the highlight of our holiday, it really is a fantastic setting.....Regards....Barney.
hi andy just sat on our balcony browsing.we are going to tiracol tomorrow its 8000 rup per night so we are not staying this time just doing lunch and nearby kerry beach.
