About Alila Diwa

Sunshine, rice paddies and contemporary luxury in south Goa.
Sprinkled with a plentiful array of peaceful pools and enveloped by verdant green surrounds, the Alila Diwa resort couldn't be better suited for a spot of Goan-style R&R. And what's that, you cry? We're talking days lounging by the azure infinity pool, sending your shoulder south in the spa, or ditching your devices with a yoga class. Everything at the Alila is geared towards serenity and relaxation in the chicest of surroundings and if you don't want to lift a finger you certainly won't have to - there's even a shuttle service to whizz you the 500m to the beach when you like...

Property details

The property

Courtyards, high-ceilings and a constant presence of water give Alila Diwa a feeling of zen and peace throughout. There are beautifully manicured gardens to wander through, pools to cool off in and a nearby beach to meander down to (or take a shuttle if it's too hot for that). You'll find delicious food at all four of the lip-smacking restaurants, and the two bars serve as an excellent spot to enjoy a sundowner or a nightcap under the stars.

The rooms

With 153 rooms and suites to choose from, you'll be spoilt for choice. Room types range from Club Rooms to Suites and throughout them all, expect beautiful textiles, calming interiors, private balconies and walk-in wardrobes. And then there's the bathrooms; a real feature, they are spacious and beautiful and come complete with enormous rain showers and spa-like tubs to soak away any remaining stresses.

Activities

Despite it's peaceful demeanour, there's plenty to keep you busy at Alila. Try a cooking course or a yoga class, catch a film in the onsite cinema, or test your senses and enjoy a meal completely in the dark - yes, really! If you're with the family, there's a good Kids Club, with kiddies spa treatments and cooking classes, or head out for a visit to the local village of Cuelim and explore the spice plantations.
