A Hidden Gem in Betul
Betul isn’t your usual touristy Goan hub. It’s where the Sal River meets the sea - quiet, breezy, and far from the chaos. Neemrana’s Three Waters fits right in here, with 9 exclusive villas that let you spread out and relax, whether you're a large family or a group of friends. Each villa is built with a nod to early 20th-century architecture, creating a mix of nostalgia and comfort. This is one of those rare places where you’ll actually want to stay in.
The property is big enough for a group retreat and cosy enough to feel like home. Book all nine villas and enjoy a completely private space, with the added perk of complimentary pickup and drop-off services - a thoughtful touch that makes things easier when you’re travelling in numbers.
A Meal You’ll Remember
Now, what’s a holiday without good food? The in-house dining at Neemrana’s Three Waters serves up a proper Goan feast. Think fresh seafood, home-style spices, and recipes that have stood the test of time. Everything’s prepared using locally sourced ingredients, so you’re not just tasting Goa - you’re experiencing it. Whether it’s a laid-back lunch with your group or a quiet dinner by the water, the flavours hit the right spot.
The Museotel Experience
Here’s something different - the property doubles as a Museotel with over 9,000 shells on display. These aren’t just random artefacts. Each shell is part of a collection that tells a story. You don’t often find art and nature coming together like this in your average beach resort, which makes this stay feel extra special. Whether you're travelling with kids or curious adults, the collection sparks a bit of wonder.
Explore the Outdoors: At Your Own Pace
One of the joys of staying at this pet-friendly stay in Goa is how you’re encouraged to go slow and soak it all in. Take the resort’s free bicycles for a spin around Betul. Ride past swaying palms, local fishing boats, and the occasional lazy dog snoozing in the sun. It’s simple stuff, but deeply calming.
Want to try your hand at something new? Join one of the non-mechanised fishing in South Goa (for an extra charge). It’s not fancy - no motors or gadgets - just you, the water, and a traditional fishing line. You might even bring back your dinner.
Perfect for Groups, Families & Quiet Gatherings
With 9 independent villas, Neemrana’s Three Waters works perfectly as a group getaway spot. Whether it’s a family reunion, a close friends’ trip, or even a low-key work retreat, the space gives everyone room to be together and also enjoy moments alone. It’s the kind of place where evenings are best spent sitting by the river with a drink, sharing stories as the sky changes colours.
Plus, since the entire property can be booked for one group, you’ll have the place to yourself - no strangers at the pool, no noise interrupting your lazy morning coffee.
The Best Time to Visit
South Goa is lovely all year, but if you’re after peaceful stays in South Goa, the quieter months between October and March are ideal. The weather’s gentle, the air feels crisp, and the sunsets are something else. Add in the local charm of Betul and you’ll wonder why you didn’t discover this corner of Goa sooner.
