NomadGao Vila Nova

I stayed at NomadGao for about a week, and from the moment I stepped onto their premises, I instantly felt comfortable. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the team maintains the property with impeccable cleanliness. The location is perfect for exploring the vibrant spots nearby, with Anjuna Beach being the closest. The rooms are spacious and exude a charming heritage vibe. One of the highlights was the in-house café, which serves delicious Vietnamese cuisine crafted by their talented chef, Sheila. The staff carries such positive energy—special thanks to Sal and Jyotika for their exceptional hospitality which made my stay memorable. The evenings were particularly enjoyable with the activities they organized, making it easy to connect with other guests. As a solo traveler, I felt it was the perfect place to meet new people and share experiences. I met some amazing individuals and had an unforgettable time here. Without a doubt, I’ll be returning the next time I’m in Goa!

It was extremely impressive to finally see a co-living/hostel where everyone seemed to be respectful/mindful of the rules that had been laid out. They do have certain community led events which could ultimately help in networking/making friends. The staff is also great and helpful! Still missing the incredible vietnamese coffee at their cafe which is operational from 9:30-4 It's more effective to plan a long-term stay here. You will need to be a little strategic of your conveyance and meal arrangement before arriving. I do wish their bathrooms were better equipped and designed. Mine hardly got hot water and the shower head was missing. The lighting was low along with frequent power cuts. There is quite a bit of scope to improve certain facilities to make this place ideal but honestly, it's a great bet otherwise! I hope they make those few changes to make the experience even better :)
