Frequently Asked Questions
Anjuna offers everything from hostels to heritage boutique properties. Among hotels in Anjuna Goa, The Tamarind is a 26-room Portuguese-style stone hotel built in 1987, set on Assagao–Anjuna Main Road opposite St Michael's Church. It suits travellers who want beach access without staying on a noisy beachfront strip.
The Tamarind is a boutique heritage hotel rather than a large resort. Guests searching for boutique hotels in North Goa usually want small scale and character, and the property delivers both - 26 rooms inside a natural stone building designed by Goan architects Gerard Da Cunha and Dean D'Cruz, arranged around courtyards and gardens.
The Tamarind is a 3-star boutique heritage property. Among 3 star hotels in North Goa it sits at the characterful end - rooms include air-conditioning, king beds, 42-inch TVs, minibar and free Wi-Fi, with an outdoor pool, the Mad Hatter bar and a multi-cuisine restaurant on site.
