Zen Gardens – Some Details
‘Exclusive’, ‘beautifully landscaped’, ‘secure’ and ‘peaceful’. These are the words that come to mind to describe Zen Gardens. A community of a select few owners, this resort offers you many benefits. With a beautiful raised private party place next to the pool, the pool itself has a separate children’s area with steps that allow safe access and exit. There is ample and secure car parking should you decide to hire your own car to move about. Planned for the resort is a restaurant, though there is a wide range of very nice food available from both the beach shacks close by and the speciality restaurants in the vicinity.

“KOH-I-NOOR” : The Apartment
“Koh-i-noor” is the apartment on offer, which has been lovingly done up by the owners. This is the first season it is on offer to the public. True to its name, it is a jewel. In addition to all that you expect in a holiday apartment, it has a distinct character – which has come alive through the carefully selected, ethnic furniture (all the way from Rajasthan), lamps and attention to detail like natural blinds in place of curtains.

Lots of pretty photographs and memories are certain to go back with you from your stay at this property.

The decor and wall pictures are all specially selected, to go with the theme of making the apartment very Indian.

There is one large bathroom cum toilet in the property and the shower area is well cordoned off with shower curtains.

The kitchen has a dining table with 4 chairs and the usual modcons you can expect (toaster, oven, kettle, microwave and a fridge-freezer).
Installed is a water purifier for safe drinking water and a fridge-freezer.
The cooking system installed by the owners is a hassle free electric stove, rather than a Gas cylinder system that is in most Goa homes.

The living room at Koh-i-noor has a distinct character that has come alive through the carefully selected ethnic furniture, lamps and attention to detail like natural blinds in place of curtains.
