Experience
Hacienda De Bastora is a spectacular uber luxury private retreat nestled in a serene by-lane in the historical village of Bastora in North Goa. This magnificent estate has upped the ante on luxury travel, curating experiences of idyllic leisure and gastronomic excellence.
The virtuosity of the renowned architect, Raya Shankwalker, is evident in the splendid residential pavilions spread across lush tropical gardens. The focal palatial Heritage Wing is the jewel in the crown. Portuguese mansion restored to its dynastic elegance flaunting a contemporary vision. It is an ancient legacy transformed into a modern-day legend. Majestic, yet ultra-chic, the high-ceilinged lobby, the chandeliered foyer, the grandiose salon, the classic English study and the stately dining hall embody bespoke sumptuousness.
To satiate the seekers of luxurious living, five lavishly-appointed residences await. Two aesthetically immaculate suites in the Heritage Wing, each individualistically styled with spa-inspired ensuites and furnishings that spell gracious refinement. Overlooking the languid, sun-lit lagoon pool, three sophisticated, autonomous villas are perched on a verdant slope – their Balinese and Mediterranean influences percolating through visibly.

Common Areas
Salon Dore
The resplendent Salon pays glorious homage to the Gilded Age. Gilt-edged mirrors, a grand chandelier, works of art, plush furnishings and bespoke lighting – all set the stage for ebullient congregations of families and friends.
Churchill Study
An quiet and inspiring space designed to facilitate business affairs, the Churchill Study is a study of gleaming wooden cabinetry lined with books.
The Courtyard
In an ingenious feat of balance, the renaissance spaces of the Hacienda’s lower floor converge harmoniously into a Zen-like inner courtyard. An ancient, gnarly frangipani tree branches out reaching for the open sky above. Glistening black tiles offset the irregular natural stone creating a textural and visual delight. A statue of Buddha laughs with pleasure in its sublime surrounding of classical columns and intricately carved furniture. A sanctum sanctorum to pause and contemplate.
The Lagoon Pool
The 75-foot lagoon pool makes a scintillating appearance just outside the Heritage Wing. Encircled by thick greenery, it has all the appearance of a serendipitous oasis, at once mesmerizing and enticing. A hot water jacuzzi at one end promises to work on tired muscles, while a wading pool at the other end keeps little ones entertained. Just above the shaded wood-panelled pool deck, a striking sculpture of a sun worshipper looks heavenward - perhaps a reflection of the sense of exultation felt by those floating in this magnificent pool.
Dining
Gourmands and discerning epicureans can anticipate a new gastronomic exploration each day. The Hacienda boasts its own exclusive restaurants managed by professionals.
A hedonistic abundance of epicurean pleasure awaits within the estate. A well-endowed Bohemian bar, an inviting pool-side café, an airy, all-white alfresco Greek terrace and a live kitchen in a lily pond –all catered to by two exclusive in-house restaurants manned by professional chefs. Daytime gatherings or nocturnal entertaining promise to be gastronomically gratifying experiences.
The surrounding garden teems with an extravagance of rare and exotic foliage. The gym, replete with top-of-the-line equipment, and the indulgent spa, encourage rejuvenation. The bountiful Hacienda De Bastora is an utopia of curated experiences orchestrated to evoke an era of decadence and privilege.
