Elsewhere Goa is an elegant, boutique beach house property, set on a remote stretch of beach in northern Goa. Owned by Bombay based fashion photographer Denzel Sequeira, Elsewhere has been in his family since 1886, when his great-grandfather, Anjelo Zeferino Sequeira bought the spit of land between the sea and a salt-water creek. The restored houses are authentic in their look and charming in style that take you back in time and yet provide all the modern amenities of today.
The unique selling point of Elsewhere Goa is its secret location, somewhere on Mandrem beach. Details follow after your booking which lead you to point where a man waits with a sign “Take me Elsewhere”. It’s the secrecy of the place that has led Angelina and Brad, as well as Salman Rushdie and Amitav Ghosh to stay there. There are just four cottages with 2-3 rooms, each individually decorated in traditional style and furnished with antique furniture and modern fittings.
Accessed by a small bamboo bridge over a creek, the Elsewhere Goa remains exclusive for the use of its guests. There are spots around the property where you can relax and the wide beach is perfect for swimming. In the surrounds are ample opportunities for walking and biking or visit remote villages. One day, take a guided walking tour of Old Goa, and UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Other highlights include flea markets and Dudhsagar Falls, one of the tallest waterfalls in India.
