We stayed for 6 weeks on our 18th holiday in Goa. This apartment without doubt is the best we have stayed in, all that is stated in the details of the property is 100% true and any issues are dealt with professionally but with a kindness that makes you aware that Deidre and Ashley want you to enjoy your stay.
This airy spacious apartment was perfect kept spic and span by Maria every few days with clean linen and towels, any queries and a quick call to Wilson (manager) were soon answered. Surprisingly the washing machine was regularly used and it was lovely being able to freshen up our clothes.
The location is wonderful, overlooking the paddy fields we often sat on the balcony watching the peacocks and just a short walk away is the fabulous Majorda beach with its wide choice of beach shacks. Shops are close by as are the restaurants
We tried to book again for November/December 2014 but other previous guests had beaten us to it, we will have to wait until 2015 to stay again.
A huge thank you to Deidre and Ashley also Wilson and Maria and their family . Already looking forward to next time. A quick mention for Gaju the young security guard who would always say good morning/evening with very limited English.
Happy New Year one again! We hope you had a pleasant journey back home.
Thank you ever so much for your wonderful feedback... what a perfect note to start 2014 on!
It was such a pleasure having you stay with us on your annual holiday to Goa and we sincerely hope that we in our own little way helped make it special.
Your kind words are so encouraging and will only propel us further to enhance the overall experience of our guests. Wilson and Maria, as always, are wonderful and the perfect support system for us and our guests.
We are so sorry that we were unable to accommodate you for 2014 but look forward to welcoming you to your home away from home in 2015.
Until then, be well and please stay in touch.
Warmest regards,
Ashley and Deidre

We had been traveling a few weeks around India and wanted somewhere to relax for a week. I emailed Deirdre (the owner) as soon as I saw the listing because it sounded perfect and she was really prompt in replying. We arranged a pick up from the station from Wilson the caretaker and met his wife Maria when we got to the apartment. They were very helpful in showing us where things were in the apartment and gave us a mobile in case we needed them. We had a long bus journey from Mumbai to Goa and I was tired and a bit unsure how to use the internet (it is a dongle and I was worried it would not work on several devices). Two seconds later Ashley (the owner) rang me from Dubai (sorry about that!) to check that I had it set up, if I had any other questions. It is very simple and it worked just the same as wifi. This is an example of how attentive the owners are and how they really will strive to ensure you have a hassle-free holiday. They have chosen well with Maria and Wilson to look after the property and the guests. Wilson is on hand to arrange transport and excursions. The apartment is equipped with everything you need, the water filter was a really nice touch. The location is perfect (just a 5 min walk to Majorda beach) and you can watch peacocks from the balcony in the morning. It was off season in Goa and we found this (Majorda) beach had a nice laid-back atmosphere and very clean, much nicer than the beaches of nearby Colva, which was very busy and a little dirty. We love to walk and explore and had some nice long walks in both directions on the beach and into the nearby towns. Wilson had told the staff at Mish-Mar beach shack (on you left as you enter the beach) that we were coming and we got a nice beer discount! We actually spent a bit of time here as the staff (David and Dave in particular) were lovely and attentive and the food was good. We really enjoyed our stay as a couple, but since the apartment is quite big I think it would also be perfect for families or group of friends.

Thank you for your wonderful feedback! Ashley and I were absolutely thrilled to read how much you enjoyed your stay at Sea Breeze Luxury Holiday Home and Majorda. You made our day!
When choosing the Apartment, we had a look at several properties around South Goa and as you rightly said, we found Majorda to be the cleanest, safest and with the most welcoming locals. When traveling on your own or with family, we believe that these factors are so important.
Additionally, the positioning of Sea Breeze is just perfect with the beach a short stroll away and a multitude of shops and restaurants just below. The peacocks are an added bonus!
We keep making short trips to the apartment so that we can add to or upgrade it. With the way the world is progressing, we strongly believe that what worked a year or even 6 months ago may not always work today. We are lucky that Dubai is just a few hours away!
Wilson and Maria are a class act and we are so lucky to have them!
Thank you once again for choosing to stay with us and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back soon.
Until then, all the very best to both of you.
Warmest regards,
Ashley and Deidre

You are too kind... thank you so much for your wonderful feedback.
It was such a pleasure having you and your lovely family stay with us. Wilson and Maria grew so fond of your little one and cannot wait to see him again.
We do try our best to give our guests an amazing holiday from start to finish and we are so glad that we have been able to exceed your expectations.
Though the apartment is still new, we are constantly upgrading and adding to it so that our guests are not only offered the very best in luxury amenities but also an experience to last you a lifetime.
Thank you once again for choosing to stay with us on your first visit to India and we look forward to welcoming you back in the not too distant future.
Be well and warm regards,

Thank you so very much for your wonderful feedback.
We are so grateful for and touched by your kind words and are absolutely thrilled that we, in our own little way, helped make your holiday special. We are frequent travellers and have set up the apartment with all that we look for and expect when in a new country. The fact that the little extras made a difference to your holiday tells us that we have done something right!
We always keep adding to /upgrading every aspect of the Apartment to not only stay one step ahead of the market but to ensure that our returning guests continue to feel pampered, comfortable and above all relaxed as that is the corner stone of a great holiday!
We do hope we have the privilege of welcoming you back and in the meanwhile, if there is anything we can do for you we are just a phonecall away.
All the very best to you and your family.
Warm regards,
Ashley and Deidre.

Thank you so very much for your very kind words and wonderful review.
You have so aptly summed up all the reasons we chose the house and consider ourselves extremely lucky to have been able to secure the house with the most stunnings views of the area.
With the beach, convenience stores and wonderful restaurants just outside, you have all you need for a perfect vacation. We are thrilled to have been able to share with you our little piece of heaven and hope to have you and your lovely family come again soon.
Thank you once again and all the best to you.

Sea Breeze is truly a nature lover's paradise and with the beach just moments away, helps enhance the experience.

We wish you nothing but the best for 2014.
