A Memorable Trip to Goa

 Our Experience at Cashew Leaf Resort

Goa, with its beautiful beaches, vibrant culture, and relaxed vibe, is undoubtedly one of the most popular vacation destinations in India. This time, we—four close friends—decided to visit Goa for a fun-filled trip. Our journey began the moment we landed at MOPA Airport, North Goa, after a smooth and pleasant flight. With the excitement of exploring the beautiful state, we immediately began searching for the best resort to stay in. A few minutes into our search, we discovered Cashew Leaf Resort, a place that seemed to promise exactly what we were looking for—a serene getaway amidst nature with modern comforts. Little did we know, this resort would be the highlight of our entire trip.

Arrival at Cashew Leaf Resort

As we drove from the airport to the resort, we were filled with anticipation. The journey was smooth, and after a short drive, we arrived at the gates of the Cashew Leaf Resort. From the moment we stepped inside, we knew we had made the right choice. We were warmly greeted with a refreshing welcome drink, a gesture that instantly made us feel welcome and at ease. The staff was polite, professional, and full of smiles, which set the tone for the rest of our stay.


One of the first things that caught our attention was the resort’s lush, green garden. As we walked through the pathways, we couldn’t help but marvel at the beautiful landscaping that surrounded us. The garden was impeccably maintained, and the variety of plants and flowers created a tranquil environment. The air felt fresh, and the sound of rustling leaves added to the calming atmosphere. It felt like we had entered a piece of paradise, a haven far from the usual hustle and bustle of city life.

The Resort’s Beauty and Comfort


After our brief tour of the resort, we proceeded to check into our rooms. We had booked two rooms, and once we entered, we were completely impressed. The rooms were spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated, with an inviting atmosphere that instantly made us feel at home. The beds were so comfortable that we all thought of taking a nap immediately. But first, we couldn’t resist opening the curtains and looking out the window.

What we saw was absolutely breathtaking. A vast view of cashew trees stretched as far as the eye could see. The sight of the lush greenery was so calming that we felt at peace just by looking at it. The resort was surrounded by nature, and the serene ambiance made it the perfect place to unwind. It was the kind of beauty that takes your breath away, and we couldn’t stop admiring the view. The sound of birds chirping in the background and the rustling of leaves added to the experience, making it the ideal escape from our hectic daily lives.


The resort’s rooms were equipped with all the modern amenities one could need. The bathrooms were spotless, with all the necessary toiletries provided. The room’s lighting and decor created a relaxing atmosphere, making it a perfect space to relax after a long day of sightseeing. Everything, from the plush bedding to the high-end facilities, ensured we would have a comfortable stay.


Fun at the Swimming Pool

After settling into our rooms, we decided to explore the resort further. One of the most attractive features of Cashew Leaf Resort is its stunning swimming pool, which we couldn’t resist visiting. The pool area was beautifully designed, surrounded by palm trees and lush greenery, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. We spent the next couple of hours swimming and lounging around the pool, taking in the peaceful surroundings.

What made the experience even more enjoyable was the poolside bar. We all ordered our favorite drinks and spent time chatting and laughing by the pool, enjoying the refreshing breeze and the serene atmosphere. The water in the pool was crystal clear, and the entire area felt like a little oasis. It was the perfect way to unwind and relax after a long journey. We couldn’t help but feel lucky to be in such a beautiful place, where the charm of nature met the luxury of modern amenities.

Dinner Experience

After our poolside relaxation, it was time for dinner. We were eager to taste the local cuisine and decided to visit the resort’s restaurant. The ambiance of the restaurant was warm and inviting, with soft lighting and a cozy atmosphere. The restaurant staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed.

For dinner, I ordered the Kingfish, which is a specialty of the region. The food was absolutely mouthwatering. The fish was perfectly cooked, tender, and flavourful, and it was served with fresh vegetables and a delicious sauce. Every bite was a delight, and we all agreed that it was one of the best meals we had ever had. We were so impressed with the meal that we jokingly considered kissing the chef’s hands! The quality of the food and the culinary expertise of the chefs were truly exceptional. It was an unforgettable dining experience that added a special touch to our trip.

Change in Our Plans

Initially, our plan was to stay for just one night at the Cashew Leaf Resort, as we had other places to explore in Goa. However, after experiencing the beauty of the resort and the warm hospitality, we quickly realized that we didn’t want to leave. The atmosphere was so inviting and homely that we decided to extend our stay. What was meant to be a one-night visit turned into a four-day retreat, and we couldn’t have been happier with our decision.

The resort’s charm was in its simplicity and its ability to make us feel at home. Despite being far from our own homes, we felt completely at ease. The staff went out of their way to ensure our comfort, and their hospitality made the entire experience unforgettable. We felt like we were part of a family, and that level of care and attention is something we will always remember.

Yoga Classes

On our last day at the resort, we decided to try something new—yoga. The resort offers yoga classes for its guests, and we were eager to experience the calming effects of yoga while surrounded by nature. The instructor was professional, and the session was both relaxing and rejuvenating. It was the perfect way to unwind before our departure.

The yoga classes were not only affordable but also incredibly effective. The session helped us release any remaining stress, leaving us feeling refreshed and revitalized. It was a wonderful way to end our stay, and we all left the class feeling more connected to ourselves and the peaceful surroundings.

Our suggestion

Our trip to Goa and stay at Cashew Leaf Resort was nothing short of amazing. The resort offered the perfect blend of natural beauty, luxury, and hospitality. Whether it was the serene views of cashew trees, the relaxing swimming pool, the mouthwatering food, or the warm service from the staff, every aspect of our stay was exceptional.

If you are planning a trip to Goa and want to experience a peaceful, beautiful retreat, I highly recommend Cashew Leaf Resort. The resort’s tranquil environment, excellent service, and warm hospitality make it one of the best places to stay in North Goa. It’s the perfect spot to unwind, relax, and enjoy the beauty of nature. Our memories of this trip will last a lifetime, and we can’t wait to return to this little paradise in the future.
