The Postcard Cuelim

In the quiet neighbourhood of the rarely visited Cuelim, lies a historical treat in the form of The Postcard Cuelim. Rooted firmly in the past, this historic site is now home to a six-room hotel overlooking 3500 acres of lush green paddy fields. The centre piece is a 350 year old chapel housed inside the premises from which the hotel takes on its historical and architectural significance.

The timeless and decidedly stylish influence of the Portuguese is apparent the moment you open the doors to your room at The Postcard Cuelim. Rich in light, space and architectural details, the rooms are a modern day reminder of the Portuguese way of life, with views of endless green paddy fields to match. All are air-conditioned, with private bathroom, safe, hair dryer, sitting area and free Wi-Fi.

The restaurant serves classic Goan cuisine: fish, curry and rice and dishes such as pork sorpotel, mushroom and green pea xacutti or the day’s fresh pomfret. Other public facilities include a swimming pool, lounge, snooker table and quiet gardens.

The Postcard Cuelim is just a 15 minute walk away from the beach and there are also a range of guided walks and cycle tours available. 

The rates include breakfast.
