The 10 best Lodges in Anjuna, India

May 13, 2023 Etsuko Causey

Anjuna is among the most famous beaches in India. Popularly known for its Hippie culture, most people's reasons for coming to Anjuna are the same as they were in the 1970s. On Wednesdays, the famous flea market of Anjuna, a major shopping hangout beside the beach, opens for business. Bathing is generally safer at Anjuna than at most of the other beaches. Taking long walks and watching sunsets are among the favorite pastimes of visitors at Anjuna. Anjuna has emerged as a destination for rave parties and that take place over here from time to time, especially around the Christmas-New Year full moon period.

Rude staff!! We were waiting for a friend to come, the waiter came over angrily when we didn't order for 5 mins. He asked us to leave immediately. The place was empty, so don't understand the reaction. The waiter was very arrogant for no reason!

It is in the remotest of places. On Google Maps it shows as 5 mins walking distance from Anjuna Beach. That was the reason for my booking. Parking is at a different place altogether. You will have to carry your luggage from a jungle track for a good 5 mins to reach the entrance of the hotel. By the way, you will not be able to see the hotel from the parking as you will have pass zig zag through houses to reach the gate. Filled in the register, provided the ID Proofs and paid the amount through Credit Card. Hold this thought for now. We will visit this thread at the end. When we reached, there was no electricity. The guide sheet mentions 'High Speed fan in case of no electricity'. Forget high, forget speed. Fan just spins as much that you can count the spots on the blades. Top of it, the regulator is broken. See the attached pictures. As per info, electricity was not there since morning. It returned within 2 hours after we checked-in the afternoon. There is no power backup for AC. The intercom does not work. So for any order you either go to the reception or call them on thier mobile. Remember the mobile network is non-existent. So you will def have to walkout each time. Bed had insects on it. Ants on the side table. Check the attached pictures. We requested for a cleanup. Bathroom has no latch and is just next to bed. It neither is soundproof nor closes enough to make you comfortable. No toiletries but there was this frog trying to make his way out of the bathroom. When we checked-in, we noticed the hotel owner arguing with a group. Apparently the bathroom glass was cracked before the group checked in. And it broke as soon as the female tried to use washroom. Owner was adamant to recover the full amount of the glass and the repair charges from this group. There were some heated discussion between the owner and the group. Something that made us uncomfortable. This was my first visit to Anjuna so thought the beach is what we should think of before judging. 5 mins walk from the beach shack. Yes it is, only if you are ok with walking through a jungle track. At night this 5 min road is pitch black, atleast when I came back from the beach shack. When we came back, the electricity was missing again and it was total darkness. If someone was standing infront of you, in the garden background, you wouldn't notice. We decided to check-out. We booked another hotel instantly. We raised a cancellation request through Booking.com. We were told by Booking.com that Curlies had denied full refund and we would have to pay for single night stay. That amount was worth checking out of the hotel. The checkout experience was even worse. The receptionist guy is the only one that knows the process. The owner requested us to wait till he returns. That guy returned in an hour during which time we sat in total darkness. The receptionist returned and I asked him to cancel our booking and for refund we had already raised it to Booking.com. He said that I do not have to do anything. We walked out through the pitch black dark jungle route to parking to get the cab. We checked out thinking that the worse was over. However, yesterday I found the amount was not refunded and upon investigating along with Booking.com, found that the Credit Card was swiped on a different POS machine at the hotel which is not in their name and now they are denying that I even paid. I have transaction details which does not have the hotel name in the narration. Booking.com is unable to help and have asked me to raise a dispute with the bank to get the machine details. Now i am entangled in this mess.

Perfect place to stay in North Goa! Highly Recommended.

Reviewed By Wanderlust150990

We were 2 couples and stayed there for 4 nights 5 days. Our stay was wonderful! Pros-1- Rooms and bathroom were clean. 2. rooms are spacious with balcony. 3. sheets are clean. 4. small kitchenette is also there for long term stay. 5- mini fridge also provided. 6- very quite place. no hussle bussle of the city. 7- Good rooms in budget price. cons- there is nothing in cons but one thing that there is no phone in the room for need of 24/7. But Mr.Henry(the owner) is always available to help. He is very kind and supportive and down to earth person. and will suggest everything you want. anything you need just said to him. he can do very kindly. my husband was sick, mr. henry personally took us to hospital in the night. we were very happy by his service and concern. And also there is no in house restaurant but he can provide tea nd coffee which is well sufficient because there are so many restaurants just outside the hotel. Location- location is best. everything is nearby. restaurants, beaches,shops you can find nearby. or take scooter. in max. 20 mins you can go to famous baga beach, aguada fort, sequerim beach, calangute beach, chapora fort. all places are nearby. and anjuna beach,vagator beach is on walking distance. better to take scooter and roam everywhere you want. all places are nearby. Mr. henry can arrange scooter as well. Famous dosa restau. i.e. big dosa and beyond dosa are just outside of the hotel. Thank you. :) We will recommend this place to our family and friends and will surely come back.

The staff helped me when my scooter developed issues and sorted things out in no time. Would definitely recommend this place if you are looking forward to Goan Beach vibes.

Guru Guest House

Located on the narrow lane along the northern stretch of Anjuna beach, this cozy shack is an inviting eatery with an enjoyable spread across cuisines. A family run establishment since the days of hippie tourists in Anjuna during the late 50’s, Guru Bar is as famous for its short eats and daily specials as for amazing sunset views. The premise also includes a guesthouse and a nightclub for non-trance music. OPEN ALL YEAR! THE SPACE Set on an elevation on the Anjuna cliff strip overlooking the expanse of Arabian sea, Guru Bar strikes a chord with someone looking for choices of multiple cuisine, a friendly atmosphere and concoctions to match, all under one place. On the opposite side of the narrow lane, one would hardly miss the entrance to Club Guru Bar which is a one-of-its-kind club in its surrounding. There are graffitti and lasers for company. Behind the club is an Indo-Portuguese styled guesthouse which provides comfortable accommodation. GURU BAR & RESTAURANT

Humble staff and comfortable stay

Stay at the Hotel was good and comfortable. I had food at the restaurant a couple of times earlier which is known for Non Veg cuisine; I was not aware that Rooms existed. Location of the Hotel is also good and is right in the Heart of Goa.
