The Postcard Velha, Goa

We really enjoyed our 2 days at the Postcard Velha, such a beautiful place. We really enjoyed the food, the rooms, the tranquility and the very attentive staff. The manager was outstandingly attentive and helped us with everything we needed. We also had a massage which was of very high quality

We had an awesome and unforgettable experience during 4 wonderful days - Creighton , the chef and interims manager during these days , did together with his team of lovely and caring staff everything to make our stay special- experiences, local trips , guided tours , massages in the lovely spa and not to forget some of the best Indian food we have tasted so far in a wide variety with impeccable preparation and local soured ingredients . You have the feeling in this 6 room ultra private hotel that everybody is just there for you - absolutely unique - 6 out of 5 stars .

Postcard Velha is unlike any hotel I’ve experienced. Truly exceptional. The building and gardens are undoubtably stunning, however it’s the staff that make this place really magical. Every tiny detail was thoughtfully considered, and every request met with a cheerful “certainly, sir.” The team were friendly, warm, and attentive — always available without being overbearing. Our room was impeccably serviced twice daily, with handwritten notes and favours left each evening. The food was extraordinary. We were lucky enough to have chef Creighton prepare most of our meals. He took the time to talk to us daily about the menu and tailored every dish to our preference. He introduced us to many authentic Goan dishes, which we were absolutely delighted with. Without fail every meal was delicious, and, beautifully presented. Good food is our life, so this was an absolute highlight for us. I’ve not experienced food of this calibre and such a personalised experience at any hotel before. When we left, the team surprised us with a bag of our favourite coffee blend, flown in just for us because they knew we wanted some. Our experience at Velha was so incredible that we changed hotels for the final four days of our honeymoon and booked in to Postcard Cuelim, which did not disappoint! Honestly, we’re so grateful to Creighton, Ritvik, Shashwat, Nishu, Baiju, Franklin, and the rest of the team for making our honeymoon so magical - an extraordinary team and an extraordinary hotel. We can’t wait to return!

Tucked away in a quaint location, this Postcard property promises you days of complete bliss. After having experienced the heart-winning hospitality of the Postcard team once, we wanted to treat ourselves again for the special occasion of our anniversary, and let me tell you, every penny spent here is completely worth it because you really are treated like royalty. The staff is always around when you need them but never intrusive. They will go above and beyond to fulfil your requests and they’ll do it all with a smile. The doors don’t need to be locked, the mind doesn’t need to be on an overdrive and your doesn’t need to be overstimulated because everything you want and need is just one call away. You’ll feel like it’s your own house where all you need to do is relax and unwind with the beautiful view of the Mandovi river, humming to the songs of the birds, sipping on your favourite drink. The cherry on top is their spa treatments that will take away all of your soreness and leave you feeling like ten years younger than when you walked it. If you are planning to visit this property then I would surely advise you to not plan any thing in advance and just go enjoy the property at the fullest. Properties like these deserve all your attention and give you so much to go back with. Enjoy your anytime breakfast, check-out at your own comfort and pamper yourself with their lovely spa choices. This is how life should be lived at a time where time has become a luxury. My heartfelt thanks to The Postcard team for showing us the best time. We cannot wait to explore more properties by them!

If you are looking for quiet solitude, personalised service, and pampering; this is the place for it. This was our first experience in a Postcard property and we came away highly impressed. The room was large, with a sit-out overlooking the Madovi river at a distance, and yet very cozy as well as very well furnished. This is not a property for someone looking for action or the beach. While the menu is limited, they are always prepared to go beyond and dish out whatever your heart desires. Everything we ate was extremely delicious. The attention given to guests is truly amazing. this property has two rooms spread over two villas and since there were only four guests on one day and only us thereafter all our needs were taken acre of. Their spa is also amazing and Tenzin, the young lady therapist was highly skilled and took notice of our individual requirements. Shashwat, the manager, was also always available to take care of guest's needs.

Our best holiday stays.. We stayed at the Postcard for six nights and boy what a relaxing holiday it was.. For us, everything was perfect.
