Very peaceful, spacious rooms, very good food and hospitality.
Doors and fixtures need to be improved and replaced at places inside the room. Attention to detail in terms of finishing is missing.
ambience

A Portuguese villa, quaint and beautiful, good location, clean and well maintained, good food, friendly hosts, ' feel good ' vibes. P. S. Bought this amazing book ' Lana' authored by the host - Tatsiana.. lucky to have it signed by her !
Nothing really
Delicious breakfast in an invigorating milieu. Both the hosts are outstanding professionals. They are there with you, as and when you need. It indeed was a home away from home for us.
There is always scope for further improvement despite being an excellent facility, the Casa da Leao.
Very kind staff, beautiful house and room, and a nice restaurant. We will definitely come back!
Le personnel et le cadre tout était top! Les chambres familiales sont très spacieuses. Merci
Les matelas durs a changer pour que ce soit parfait. Prevoir un mode de locomotion pour de rendre sur les plages de la côte
Beautiful heritage property with a very warm, homely vibe. Rohan and Tatiana were exceptional hosts who are friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. The place is extremely pet-friendly, and our pet Trudy had an amazing time. The pizzeria on-site is a standout—great food and atmosphere. Overall, very peaceful, well-maintained, and thoughtfully run.
Honestly, nothing significant to point out. Everything was well taken care of and exceeded expectations.
A HAPPY PLACE! Charming hidden old house, beautifully refurbished
Nothing
The cappuchino was really good and my daughter loved the waffles. The seating outside the Villa was pretty with all the fairy lights and outdoor seating area. The bed was comfortable, sheets were clean, the family room we were staying in was cosy.
The bathrooms were not up to mark, the plumbing is old and outdated. There were water problems the first two days of our stay. The reason we were given were broken pipes but we were charged much before we actually went there, so the hosts had enough time to ensure that the most basic facility that is water is available. The breakfast provided was very basic and the cappuchino I loved was chargeable. All in all I was disppointed. Our friend had booked another room in the same villa, the attached bathroom was stinky and all that was provided was a room freshner. It was really disppointing and since we were charged in advance, we did not really have any other option.
There was live music in the garden one night and that was enjoyable.
The property was a little shabby and run down - there were holes in the bathroom door and the roof. On the first day there was a cockroach in the bed. Breakfast was cold by the time it got to us. The menu items we asked for were not available on 2 occasions.
Beautiful location and excellence in all aspects
Lovely people, amazing room, live music and fantastic food
Vše perfektní!
Pet friendly
The place is safe and homely. Rowan and Tatsiana shared lots of useful information for tourists. The restaurant has good Western food. We were able to ask for a packed breakfast when we needed it.
The rooms were fabulous and had an old world charm. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable.
Everything was great.
Ambiente acolhedor em uma casa centenária muito bonita e com personalidade, rodeada por uma floresta tropical. Acorda-se ao som de pássaros e da natureza. Muito sossegado. Pátio com muitos espaços atraentes e uma excelente música ambiente. Anfitriões muito simpáticos e prestáveis, Rohan e Tatiana.
Nada a referir. Foi tudo positivo.
The hosts were very friendly and the rooms had a very vintage vibe. The outside seating was really nice and we spent a lot of time there having amazing food from the restaurant

Die alte portugiesische Villa ist sehr idyllisch in einem großen Garten gelegen. Die Zimmer sind sehr geräumig, komfortabel und geschmackvoll eingerichtet, Es ist ein ganz wundervoller Ort, um dem bunten Treiben auf Goas Straßen zu entfliehen. Zur Villa gehört ein Restaurant mit einer ausgezeichneten Küche. Wir haben hier die besten Momos und Pizzen gegessen. Das Frühstücksbuffet ist vielfältig und abwechslungsreich. Dank der vielen hilfreichen Tipps von Rohan und Tatiana konnten wir viele schöne Strände Goas anschauen und in authentischen lokalen Geschäften einkaufen. Wenn wir wieder mal in der Nähe sind, werden wir auf alle Fälle vorbeischauen.
The interior
The hospitality isn't good. Too many house rules. Restrictions on timing
This is a very lovely old house with lots of character. Rohan is a wonderful host who made us feel very welcome and knows a lot about the area. There are only a few rooms at the house so it is nice and intimate. There are some cute dogs on the property and a stray dog outside that is very friendly. There is a little clothes shop inside where there are some beautiful upcycled tops and the food was wholesome and delicious. We would definitely come back here for another stay.
Beautifully designed and maintained rooms in a heritage villa. Great service and hospitality. Fantastic restaurant. Pet-friendly. Homely and Welcoming hosts.
Location isn't anything to rave about but most places are well within reach if you have your own vehicle.
Un poco apartada, pero muy tranquila. La decoración de la casa y los detalles, eran increibles. El desayuno fenomenal y muy completo, además de rico. Tienes para elegir mucha comida y lo preparan muy bien.
Los enchufes e interruptores de la habitación, que tenías que estar buscándolos para saber a qué correspondían. Pero típico de la India.
- extrem netter und hilfsbereiter Host - sehr gutes Restaurant direkt im Hotel - Frühstück sehr vielfältig und lecker und immer frisch zubereitet, dadurch aber auch zeitintensiver
The place has a great character, the food was nice and the facilities were well maintained.
The location is remote. there is a beach nearby, but nothing else to do. Its away from the attractions.
Adoramos tudo!! A casa é muito gira e o anfitrião foi 5 estrelas connosco. Ajudou-nos com tudo o que precisamos e também a programar os nossos dias por Goa. Esteve sempre disponível para nós.Não podíamos ter escolhido melhor. Obrigada!
Nada
150年前に建てられたというその建物の歴史と親切かつフレンドリーなスタッフたち、オーナーの趣味の良さ、人の良さ、全てが最高。
建物が古いので建て付けのよくないドアがあった。モンスーンの時期は膨らんで閉めにくくなるのだとか。でも、それもこの建物の歴史を感じさせてくれてよい。味わい深い。
Very very happy that we chose the place. It is away from the hustle and bustle of North Goa, yet close to all of it. If you are a party animal, then all the great spots are about 20-30 mins away. If you like the quiet then South goa is a 30-45 min drive away. You can just stay back at the property call for a drink and laze around with a book also. Casa do Leao is beautiful and what makes it extra special is the personal attention. Rohan is a great host and has fab recommendations. He has 3 fur kids and they are super cute and friendly. We are definitely staying here again
Rohan and Tatyana provide excellent service to their guests and are attentive to their needs and comfort. Always available even at odd hours with a smile! The breakfast provided is sumptuous and wholesome so that one need not rush for lunch. A late lunch works out. Food can be ordered onsite and I will have to say their Chicken Carbonara pizza is excellent. Didn't get to try their pastas but I am sure those are great as well. For someone adventurous enough to take public transportation the bus stop is closeby. One can take a bus to Betim ferry and get to Panjim.
Very cosy, clean, really nice garden to chill, good breakfast. The staff is excelent, Rohan helped us a lot, he made our trip 100x easier and better. It's on a really quiet location.
Property is managed by a wonderful and creative couple, set in a period property, surrounded by a beautiful setting, well thought out rooms and spaces. Was given a free upgrade which we thoroughly appreciated, they have a little hand crafted boutique which we shopped for a couple of things and even had an amazing restaurant on site! Must give the food a go, and the romantic setting in the evening...You won't need to leave casa do leao..it's an all in one experience! Will definitely be back
This is such a beautiful property and both Rohan and his wife Tatjana were great hosts and made sure our stay was comfortable. They also helped us with information about places to visit and things to do which made our stay even better. Lovely breakfast. The area around is great too. We would love to go back and enjoy this magical stay.
It’s an old villa with a lot of charm; big spacious rooms and great outdoor spaces.
Rohan and his wife Tatjana are lovely and helpful people, hospitality is their absulot priority. We ate the most delicious pizza and salat at this special location. We highly recommand to stay at this quiet and unique Casa. Thanks for all!!
The accommodation was beautiful and very well maintained. 😊 The staff was very friendly and helpful. There was a breakfast included, which was served in great portions and there were a lot of options (also veg!). I'd highly recommend this place if you're looking for a comfortable and peaceful stay.
Great property. Rohan and Tatsiana are great hosts.
Very spacious. Kids friendly. Rohan - the host is extremely helpful, cordial and replies very promptly! The rooms are super clean. Bathrooms are even better! Very near to the main stream beaches. Since we had car. It was super easy for us to roam around anywhere and everywhere. It was a very comfortable stay.
The place is a beautiful old home - restored well and the courtyard mango tree creates the perfect shade for your morning breakfast. The hosts, and especially Rohan are wonderful - excellent advice both for trips and food and give little excerpts and stories to match making you feel like you’ve been given a little glimpse into their interesting lives and that of the old Portuguese home. We loved how welcoming they were and the rooms were all well-kept and comfortable.
Nothing - the space is lovely. We only wish taxi’s were not so expensive in Goa (in comparison to the other places in India).
Very generous property owners and hospitality is very nice.
Each room has a distinct character, Responsive service - staff is very well trained and courteous Beautiful ambience. Great food, even better desserts Live music over the weekends. Very friendly hosts
It's a 150 year old house, so certain things are going to need improvement. The drainage in the bath could be better, but we understand the limitations.
Superb location and characterful property, away from the chaos of Calangute. The staff are attentive and work hard to make your trip memorable. The rooms are well maintained and comfortable. The food and cocktails are exquisite and the evening entertainment a welcome addition to just chill out at the property. Breakfast was simple but sufficient and the plentyful fruit bowl was my favourite. I would definitely stay again.
Maintenance and friendly owner Rohan and his wife
Amazing property with vintage vibes and great hosts! The restaurants fulfill the taste buds and the staff is awesome.
Nothing to complain about!
This hidden gem is a must stay for anyone traveling to Goa. The hosts, Rohan and Tatyana, are skilled hoteliers who leave no detail unattended in the operation of this beautiful home away from home. We (2) were comfortable in our clean, spacious bedroom as well as in the gorgeous outdoor courtyard replete with verdant plants, delicious food and drink, and occasional live music. The location of the stay is perfect for those who are looking to engage with the culture and nightlife of the Calangute/Anjuna area while also staying proximate to Panjim, the capital and historical epicenter of Goa. While our stay at Casa do Leão was short and sweet, we found ourselves enamored with the charm and splendor of Goa, largely thanks to the generous hospitality and stellar recommendations of our hosts. Highly recommend: tasty breakfast and authentic pizza on premises, Sinquerim Beach (Coast Cafe) for sunbathing, Panjim for (de)colonial history, Anjuna for nightlife and delicious food, and Museum of Goa for thought provoking contemporary art.
Everything , especially the vintage home , the host was very friendly and took care if every thing, very close condolim beach
Nothing to mention
The food was excellent, the room large and spotlessly clean, the location ideal (on a quiet lane parallel to the main road). Great value for money.
Beautiful heritage home with nice touches throughout. The hosts were gracious and helpful, the food delicious. I wish we could have stayed longer.
The hospitality was excellent, every member of staff was great.
The location isn't great, you really need a moped or a car.
sinple and cosy
wifi but beyond our control and the coffe table is very small
It's a beautiful heritage property. It was my dream to stay in a Portugese house. Although I could not spend much time here at this place, I still enjoyed it. The environment surrounding the property is very peaceful , relaxing and gives you a very homely vibe. Just 20 mins away from panjim, easily located.
A little more lighting in the room, should be added. Rest all is fine.
The proprietors were very accommodating & helpful, allowing us an early check up to an upgraded family room which worked very well for Mother & Daughter travelling together. CdL was a very lovely Portuguese guesthouse with lots of character, the only slight negative was that its location was a taxi/Tok Tok ride away for lunch/ evening meals, so good idea to build this into your sight seeing day, whilst out & about. The food options for food at the property were good. We enjoyed a couple of pizza’s one evening. There was a good healthy choice for Breakfast.
The property was not walking distance for tourist to reach any alternative eating places.
The look, feel and over all decor. How well the property has been maintained…a blend of old times and classic feel with a touch of modernity and technology. Gracious Host… Extremely Knowledgeable.. Amazing Food…very well curated menu. Ever smiling Staff.. F&B, HK and all
Nothing as such…
The property is a warm cozy portuguese home in Nerul. We felt very welcomed and taken care of through out our time of stay. The owner Rohan and his team are very warm and always ready to help and accommodate our needs. The rooms are spacious and comfortable with all amenities. The cherry on the cake is their eatery which serves delicious food and cocktails. A place I would definitely want to visit again :)
Largely everything was great!! But if I had to knit-pick then just one thing - some white lights in the room would make it more brighter :)
Enjoyed a peaceful stay at Casa do Leão. The property itself gave us a sense of calm. Everything from check in to check out was hassle free. The owner of the property, Rohan, was always available to reach out to. Polite staff, good food at the in-property restaurant, and clean, comfortable rooms made our stay memorable. Will definitely choose Casa do Leão if we're visiting Goa again.
beautiful place, yummy food
Great stay at this fabulous property. Loved the ambiance, staying nestled in the laps of nature, proximity to beaches closeby, and the top-notch service.
It's not a dislike, a suggestion to have more Indian options in breakfast and overall menu.
Simply, it is fantastic experience!! Highly recommended:)
The location was perfect and I loved it.
The breakfast menu was a letdown and it could have been better, the restroom ventilation was not proper and the smell was still there when the exhaust fan was running all day and night.
It was great and fine property to stay in calm
We ordered some food from the property and it was hell costly. Just a two piece of boiled egg costed us 167 rupees.. lol Also, the breakfast has very limited options and delivery time was also long as they used to prepare it out side the property
Great place to stay for couples and family Great food good hospitality
Nothing
Welcome Clarity of rules Guidance to visit different tourist spot, different hotels according to food type Location is good Suggestion to hire taxi/ self drive car
Complimentary buffet menu can be little changed, than keeping same everyday.
The location is ideal for those who want to be close to the action in North Goa while relishing the relative calm of the South. Rooms are cosy and well put together.
We faced some problems with the water. Hopefully they can rectify this soon!
The experience is superb. Rohan is an amazing host. I and my family had visited Casa do Leao in May 2024, the property is little away from the city but the ambience is super good. The property is well maintained and even the restaurant has good food options. Rohan helped us with few suggestions on where all to go around in Goa. The staff was also very helpful, polite and friendly. We had a great time and enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended.
All was well with this establishment and I would definitely be back here.👍 Thanks to Mr.Rohan.
All was well.
Rohan, his wife and all staff are amazing and very helpfull. They helped me with everything, with the taxi, with renting a motorbike and with lots of tips about Goa. The hotel is very clean, well organized and super beautiful. The garden, with the restaurant, are very welcoming. The location is also very good, close to the beaches and at the same time peaceful and quiet.
Nothing...
In case ur looking for a place in Goa that is distant enough to not have any traffic snarls while also being reasonably closer to most of the tourist attractions of North Goa, look no further. This place also has an in house restaurant that serves almost everything under the roof including vegan and gluten free options. The quality and options of their food and drinks is superb. Rohan and Tatsiana and their staff are very warm too and very helpful. You can get ur pets along too. You ll love the nature centric vibe of this place. Its worth every penny and ur time!
My fiancé and I loved our stay. It was a very clean cozy place and actually felt like staying at Home. The bonus was the warm hospitality of the hosts. We look forward to going back again soon and will prefer staying at the property instead of hotels.
Good breakfast could have had continental. But it's fine.
None
We stayed for only one night but even with less than 24 hours of experience, we were able to pack in a lot. We had two meals at the Pizzeria part of the Casa, and both of them were really quite fantastic. The host, Rohan is super kind and helpful. With our early morning flight he was able to arrange a special travel friendly breakfast. He also helped arrange for an evening sunset boat ride, and gave us tips for a sundowner. The rooms and overall facilities are nice. I loved that they had maintained the character of a Portuguese villa in the rooms. The overall property and outside dining area is quite relaxing and peaceful - a nice getaway from the hustle bustle. Everything was comfortable and well-organized from an early check-in to early check-out. I would love to go back and stay for a few more nights.
The location is not far from the main happenings but you have to plan for taxi arrangements in advance or wait times. The Host, Rohan is always available to assist with this. The Casa's location also doesn't always appear easily on maps, so it can be tricky. None of it is a dealbreaker.
Beautiful family run property. Great food and drink. Really comfortable rooms.The hospitality of the staff was amazing. Especially the owner roman who went out of his way to help us with transport and recommending places to go during your stay. Thanks to everyone at casa do leao.
Nothing
Vintage feel of this property is brilliant
Location is a bit interior
We came from north India to this little piece of heaven without even knowing! It is a traditional old Portuguese house, but it has been completely renovated and the beds couldn’t be more comfy. The decoration is so welcoming that you can basically make it your home for the time you stay at Casa do Leão. The spaces are very clean (the room, bathroom and common spaces). The air conditioning works perfectly and if you prefere fans the rooms are also equipped with ceiling fans. The staff is super welcoming and attentive, the owners are the nicest and gave us the best recommendations for touring north Goa! This homestay is connected to the owners house and their pets come to say hi once in a while at the terrace space (dog and cat). The complementary breakfast is modest and tasty, but if you prefer something more you can choose from the breakfast menu which has a good value for the money. It is located in a quiet area of Nerul, which is perfect for resting and peace. In conclusion: we couldn’t be happier with this place
Nothing.
We loved that it felt like home, loved the open spaces which Rohan and his family tended to with so much care and love - evident in the decor, greenery and thoughtful amenities they provided to guests. The team was warm, welcoming, helpful and always at the ready to be of assistance if a need arose. Safety was important since we travelled as a family with a 4 year old - the security posted throughout the night, well lit corridors and cctv's offered just that. The food at the pizzeria was delicious and we got so many recommendations from the host about the locale. The home also offered many spaces to lounge and explore. It was clean, well maintained. All rooms and bathrooms were spacious and spotless!
Quaint, artistic, impeccably clean and value for money - is how I would describe Casa Do Leao. Rohan and his family are a nice couple and were generous with their suggestions on how we could have a wonderful time at Goa. Patches and the other pets were fun to play with! The home has an in-house restaurant where they serves a great breakfast and yummy wood fire oven pizzas. The home is quite conveniently located with easy access to most of the attractions. Would highly recommend!
The entire atmosphere of the place, great looking house surrounded by huge mango trees and other flora and fauna made it feel like home. Also, the hosts are very kind and generous and happy to help with anything.
If we had to mention anything it would be that the complementary breakfast is nothing special. However it was still nice that it was included
The place is quite yet close to the city. It has a restaurant on premises which has great Italian food and plethora of cocktails as options. The interesting thing I noticed was there was a rocking foot rest with the rocking chair. Never seen that before. There is a day bed and the rooms and bathrooms both are spacious with high ceilings
