Cidade de Goa is located on Vainguinim Beach between a green hill and the
deep blue sea - the sort of setting that can turn even the most ordinary
person romantic. The resort built on 40 acres of lush greenery, was created
to resemble a self-contained Portuguese hill hamlet (the resort's unique
architectural grandeur, earned an international R.I.B.A. award). As you step
in to the Lobby, you are greeted with a spectacular view of the Arabian Sea
unmatched in Goa. The bright murals and the statues of Vasco da Gama in his
three facets as an Adventurer, Statesman and Philosopher, along with the
fountains further enrich the character & the ambience.

Accommodation
The rooms and suites are designed to create a unique aura of tradition coupled with luxurious comfort. Unwind and relax to the sound of the waves while sitting in your private balconies overlooking the sea.
Casa - The Casa room is designed to make you feel at home. Just like the Portuguese saying, "Mea casa, tua casa" - my home, your home. All rooms have cable television, a well-stocked mini-bar, and a magnificent view of the Arabian Sea.
Damao - Yet another of our rooms carved in the local Goan-style. A few of these 'Damao-type' rooms are decorated with terracotta, mirror-work, and straw mats, highlighting the influence of Daman (another Portuguese colony) on Goa, hence the word - Damao.
Suites - Our luxury suites faithfully recreate all the magic and splendor of a bygone Portuguese era. We have a total of 4 suites to choose from, each with a character of its own. Come and experience a world of luxury.
