An introduction to Dona Alcina Resort

If those chilled out, sun drenched days can't wait a moment longer, the Dona Alcina Resort is right up your holiday street. Sitting in gorgeous green grounds that are peppered with nodding palm trees, you can't help but instantly feel relaxed here. It's got that truly laid-back tropical vibe that's just infectious. And when you're not kicking back in your light and airy room here, the pool is the perfect place to while away your days and soak yourself in sunshine. The sprawling kidney-shaped pool sits slap bang at the heart of this attractive complex and looks oh-so inviting. And when you're not cooling off in its sparkling waters, it's flanked by a pretty patio area with sun beds and parasols. If you're a bit more of a beach babe though, the gorgeous bleached-white sands of Candolim Beach are just a stroll away with watersports on tap. Wherever you unwind, the Dona Alcina's eateries will be a welcoming sight when it's time to refuel. Slow the pace right down as you tuck into traditional Goan or continental delights at the pool side 'Boa Cozinho'. Or pull up a chair in the open-air 'Blue Curaccao' restaurant, which serves snacks and grilled specialities. They're both so good, it's a tough decision. After dark, you'll find plenty to keep you here from themed evenings, live bands and cultural shows. But if you're looking to party, simply stroll along to the nearby bars and clubs where the atmosphere is lively 'til late.
