Carina Beach Resort

Carina Beach Resort emerges as a hallmark of refined contemporary opulence, tucked away in the tranquil village of Benaulim. Surrounded by lush green fields and swaying palms, this family-run oasis is merely a ten-minute stroll to the soft sands of Benaulim Beach, blending comfort with the spirited charm of Goa. Upon arrival, guests are greeted by a welcoming lobby adorned with local artwork and soothing tones, setting the stage for delightful experiences to come. The inviting open-air setting echoes with the delightful notes of peppy retro music while a large-screen TV captures the spirit of the game, whether it's football or cricket. Here, the sensory journey continues into Alfredo's, where expertly crafted Goan dishes meet an alluring selection of Continental, Indian, and Chinese fare, all prepared by talented local chefs. The dimly lit garden, complete with candlelight seating, transforms into a cozy venue on select nights for unforgettable live music evenings-all to be savored amid vibrant surroundings.
