Leoney Resort Hotel Anjuna

Tucked away amidst the coconut palms, 5 minutes away from Ozran and Vagator beaches lies Leoney Resort. It is a cute, quiet hotel, with an enchanting mix of mock Portuguese villas and cottages set amidst beautifully landscaped gardens and a sparkling blue swimming pool. The rooms were among some of the best I've seen in North Goa for the price and I've been going every year since 2000. An air conditioner and refrigerator are standard in every room, and every room faces the swimming pool with a little patio/veranda out front. The bathrooms were also exceptionally clean by Goa standards with running hot water 24 hours a day. The restaurant is nothing great, but provides 24 hour room service and that much required cup of morning chai.

The environment in and around the resort is extremely green and serene. One can spend all day lazing around the pool, enjoying the sun or shade from the palm trees surrounding the resort. The Resorts Spa also offers Ayurvedic massages.

I stayed here for 4 nights in an "A/C Deluxe Room". The cost was Rs. 2,700 per night including taxes. They also have "Deluxe Cottages" and "Suites" which are slightly more expensive going up to about Rs. 3,500 per night.

A word of advice though, I believe they offer better rates when you book online from their website so give it a try. It is http://www.leoneyresort.com
