We recently stayed at this property and had such a wonderful time there. Although we stayed only for a day but wished we stayed longer. The hospitality is amazing and feels so personal. Right from the moment we stepped in we were greeted with such warm smiles. They even customized a welcome drink for our 3.5yr old daughter. Their food was delicious and the spa was so relaxing. Their staff is courteous and kind and there was always someone to attend to us. The property is not big but it’s beautiful and very well maintained. It’s far from the beach so car hire or a cab is recommended. There rooms are aesthetically pleasing. Highly recommended for a quiet relaxing time. Would love to visit again

If you are looking for quiet solitude, personalised service, and pampering; this is the place for it. This was our first experience in a Postcard property and we came away highly impressed. The room was large, with a sit-out overlooking the Madovi river at a distance, and yet very cozy as well as very well furnished. This is not a property for someone looking for action or the beach. While the menu is limited, they are always prepared to go beyond and dish out whatever your heart desires. Everything we ate was extremely delicious. The attention given to guests is truly amazing. this property has two rooms spread over two villas and since there were only four guests on one day and only us thereafter all our needs were taken acre of. Their spa is also amazing and Tenzin, the young lady therapist was highly skilled and took notice of our individual requirements. Shashwat, the manager, was also always available to take care of guest's needs.

What an extraordinary project the Postcard hotels is. After 2 nights at the Postcard Hideaway at Netravali, I expected the 'city' Postcard Velha to be less verdant and city-encroached. It turned out to be my private villa in a remote location... unbelievably private, beautiful manicured gardens, stunning view of the Mandovi river in the distance and the unforgettable breakfasts in the gazebo on the elevated platform.

We had an awesome and unforgettable experience during 4 wonderful days - Creighton , the chef and interims manager during these days , did together with his team of lovely and caring staff everything to make our stay special- experiences, local trips , guided tours , massages in the lovely spa and not to forget some of the best Indian food we have tasted so far in a wide variety with impeccable preparation and local soured ingredients . You have the feeling in this 6 room ultra private hotel that everybody is just there for you - absolutely unique - 6 out of 5 stars .

This was our third Postcard hotel on our trip and it complemented the others perfectly. After the beaches of southern Goa and the wilderness of Netravali wildlife sanctuary the historic charm of Old Goa and shopping in the capital Panjim rounded off a great trip. The property is located in a quiet hilltop enclave a few minutes from Old Goa. With six rooms spread over two colonial style villas and ample grounds it was luxurious and exclusive. We spent most of our time there in the two garden dinning areas, having breakfast and dinner and chatting to other guests over drinks. We were visited daily by a large kingfisher and delighted in watching the exotic long tailed birds cooling off in the afternoon heat by diving into the pool. Shashwat and his team were exemplary, friendly, polite and attentive without disturbing our privacy. They made sure we had everything we needed and were so helpful in arranging taxis to and from our various outings. The chefs provided us with some of the best meals of our trip, particularly the Goan fish curry, and the waiters produced excellent fruit juices and Gin & tonics with basil and orange. The hotel policies of anytime check in/check out and anytime breakfast are unique in our experience and they should be congratulated for truly putting guests first. We were able to stay until 2030 on our last day and have a lovely dinner before heading to the airport, which ended our trip on a high note. We would highly recommend staying at this beautiful hotel, a perfect old fashioned luxury experience.

Me and my wife we stayed for one night at the Postcard Velha and we would have loved to stay longer, the hotel is in a beautiful secluded setting above Old Goa, has an intimate feeling and the service is spotless. The rooms are very good and so are the meals.. A place we would love to return.
