‘Little Paradise’ is an independent cottage located in a peaceful valley in Assagao, North Goa, between the Arabian Sea and the vibrant market town of Mapusa. Assagao is one of the tiniest and most peaceful villages of the Velhas Conquistas of Bardez, tucked into the corner of northern Goa, measuring about 7 kilometers in length and resting peacefully in verdant hills covered in cashew groves. Famous for the healing power of its spring water, its exquisite tropical gardens and gentle breezes from the Arabian Sea, Assagao remains relatively untouched by the growing tourism, despite being only 5 minutes away from the famous Anjuna and Vagator Beaches and 15 minutes from the very lively Baga Beach. Mapusa, the market town, is 3km away and, although hugely popular, has held onto its gloriously laid back Portuguese “sossegado” atmosphere. Some of the best restaurants, vibrant nightlife, colorful day and night markets and glorious beaches of North Goa can be found within 5-15 minutes from the house.
