THE NIEL HOUSE

Nestled in the leafy embrace of Assagao forest, this charming holiday home is where modern convenience meets a bit of the wild. There’s a private pool that’s just begging you to jump in, a pergola perfect for lounging, and an outdoor shower that’ll make you wonder why we ever invented indoor plumbing. It’s a home where you might forget what day it is, but you won’t forget how relaxed you feel.

ASSAGAO, GOA

A SPACE TO WIND DOWN

This is where peace and quiet come for a holiday. A spot where time slows down just enough for you to actually finish that book you’ve been meaning to read. Find a corner you like, put your feet up, and enjoy the kind of calm that feels like a long, deep exhale. Reflect, unwind, or simply enjoy the fact that here, the most pressing decision is whether to have one drink or two.

A PLACE TO Be INspired

Inspiration has a funny way of sneaking up on you here. Maybe it’s the way the light filters through the trees or how the birds seem to be having far more interesting conversations than most humans. Whatever it is, this villa gives you space to think, to dream, and maybe even come up with your next brilliant idea. Or, you know, just a good idea for dinner.

REST and RECOVER

Upstairs, two bedrooms wait like cozy, well-kept secrets. Each one comes with an en-suite bathroom (because sharing is overrated), and the king-size beds are so comfortable, you might briefly consider never getting up again. The dark window sheers are perfect for lazy lie-ins, keeping the morning sun politely out until you’re good and ready for it. Sleep here isn’t just a luxury — it’s a necessity.

Outside, you’ll find the real showstoppers: a private pool that’s basically calling your name, an outdoor shower that makes bathing feel like an adventure, and a pergola where you can lounge, snack, nap, or all three. The best part? You don’t even have to choose. Whether you’re sunning, swimming, or just sitting and watching the clouds roll by, this outdoor space makes doing nothing look like an art form.

OUTDOOR AREA

A SPACE TO DO WHAT YOU LOVE TO dO.

Whether you’re an indoors person, an outdoors person, or a bit of both, WE’VE got you covered.

INDOORS?

Well, there’s reading (finally), reflecting (because life’s deep thoughts always seem clearer on holiday), or maybe perfecting your cannonball in the pool (style points optional). Feeling competitive? Break out a board game and settle once and for all who the family champion is (no sulking allowed).

OUTDOORS?

Oh, where to begin! Leap into natural river pools during the monsoon (yes, it’s as exhilarating as it sounds), or slice through the waves while you cut a celebratory cake aboard a yacht at sunset. If you’re more of a kayaker, glide through mangroves and pretend you’re on a wildlife expedition. Prefer saltwater? Dive into the sea for a swim that’s a bit more freeing than your average pool dip. And of course, there’s always the food — fabulous and plentiful, because let’s be honest, holidays are for indulging.
