Lonely Planet Review
Set back behind the whitewashed church, this convivial place has beautifully kept rooms and cottages fronting onto the beach. A rare piece of quiet in the otherwise throbbing world of Baga.
Alidia is an extremely pleasant place to stay, set in the heart of Baga but away from its vocal cords. Tucked cosily between the friendly manager's house and the beach, Alidia is a rarity - party people go elsewhere. The suite has an ocean view and a rooftop balcony at the top of a cast iron spiral staircase that could comfortably host forty of your closest friends. The buildings are painted crisp white but adorned with typical Goan red tiles. There are several balcony areas for enjoying a drink between the trees and the lovely stone stairs in the complex have been worn smooth with time. Windows are arched and the low-key open air restaurant is the perfect place to sit and watch TV or read a book while enjoying a drink or five.
