Seashell Suites And Villas - Is this the BEST boutique hotel in Candolim? Goa India 2024
Join us on a tour of the Seashell Suites and Villas boutique hotel and resort in Candolim. We hadn't planned on picking up the camera until we got to Mumbai but we simply had to film it. Seashell Suites and Villas is a boutique hotel in the very heart of Candolim and a few metres from beach road. The service at this hotel is definitely 5* and the staff go above and beyond to make your stay as memorable as possible. We booked for 4 nights but extended our stay for another 6 nights as it really ticked the boxes for us.
Top Tip - If you book direct with the hotel GST is included, whereas with other booking websites GST is payable at the hotel.
Breakfast can be added for 600rs +GST which at the current time of writing (May 2024) is 18%, and you really do get incredible value for money and a whole lot of choice. We would go as far as to say breakfast at Seashell suites and villas is probably one of the best we have sampled worldwide.
We found ourselves turning to CZcams to see if there was a review, although the one we saw was not very good so we thought we would do a proper one, and we hope you've enjoyed it!

Wondering what to do in Panjim Goa? We spent a day there whilst we were staying in Candolim and were really glad we did as it was even cheaper than Candolim and had a lot going on.

We loved Mariano's!. Stayed next door at the Sol Pelicanos and was over there all the time.
Definitely a must visit. We could smash one right now ☹️. Thanks for watching!
brilliant video guys loads of info
Thanks for the lovely feedback Peter and thanks for watching also 🙂
Those places looked amazing. Thanks for the Santorini guide. We’re going in 3 weeks time. You had me in tears too. Hope your life is good now
Hey Vanessa. You are most welcome and we are glad it's helped. In all honesty we've never really recovered and it's been just over a year now. Don't get us wrong we've still done trips but nothing like that 6 month one. Genuinely the hardest scene we have ever had to film as we knew we didn't do enough and had to come home. After the camera went off we were both in floods of tears for a good 30 minutes. Things will never be the same so it's sticking to the full time jobs until they can be similar. Thanks so much for watching and commenting xx
I am watching your video from Toronto, Canada. I liked your video.
Thanks very much. This was one of our first ever vlogs. Our latest ones are much better 🙂
What was all the smoke going into the air?
That's all the local rubbish that's taken to an area at the other side of the island near the prison and then gets burnt. We only noticed it on that particular day.
I’ve just booked our second trip to Sri Lanka and we will be in Bentota for 6 days so your video is really helpful. Definitely got to check out that Bamboos Restaurant 👍🏼
Definitely worth visiting. We loved Bentota even though there wasn't much to do. Say hi from us if you visit!
I certainly will. We are doing a lot of travelling around Kandy, Ella and Yala so we left plenty of time for relaxing at Bentota. Just a final chill out before we head home.
Enjoyed that. Thanks for sharing 👍🏼
Thanks for watching ☺️
Hi guys, sorry you got ripped off. These people bring bad reputation to Sri Lanka. Everyone is not the same. I live in London. If you want anything down south, Weligama area Please let me know. I got a villa in weligama. I know lots of people down there. Have fun.
Hey Mahendra. We've done 2 visits to SL now and in fairness we've met more good people than bad. We had to show it purely for awareness as the locals know this man very well and this behaviour isn't uncommon for him. Unfortunately there's always one bad egg but the same can be said for the UK. That's a lovely offer and we might take you up on that one day if we find ourselves back in the country. Thanks for watching 🙂
Oh wow.. Ots a really helpful video when someone is planing to visit Maldives . Each and every thing you try to cover in this video.. thanks
Glad it helped and thanks for watching ☺️
Looks absolutely amazing 🤩 looking forward to some adventures 😊
The majority of scooter users are not invalid. Just plain FAT! It's strange they can park their scooter outside a cafe or bar and RUN to fill their face, but struggle at other times. If they actually tried to walk for a week they would lose weight and save money! But hey! Each to their own. Could I have a double cheese and fries with extra onion rings and a McFlurry. And a can of diet coke!!!
5 Euro for Haircut is cheap. I pay much more In Istanbul
It is in comparison to UK prices too. My Kurdish barber charges £13. I have an arrival hair cut and a departure hair cut when I'm in Turkey 😄
Boss video. When is the best time to book these types of cruises for the best deal?
It varies greatly. We booked this a couple of months before we went. Sometimes the closer to the departure date the better but we always keep an eye on what the prices are doing. Thanks very much for watching ☺️
We always stop there for our Turkish delight…lovely lovely man
Fab video. We cruised on Discovery when it was Splendour of the seas but have only cruised P&O since. We're looking at trying Marella in the future due to their caribbean itinerary, more ports than P&O, and a few different to ones we've already done. Definitely given us food for thought. Thank you.
Glad we could help you out. Marella are always good for squeezing in as many ports as they can. That was the only reason we opted for the Discovery over the Arvia. Thanks very much for watching 🙂
Did you really say “statue of colossus?” Statue of statue?
Best Pastizzi are in Medina in Rabat 7 am in the square there is a bakery. Fresh Hobz-Biz-Zejt and Pastizzi warm out the oven and onto your plate. Probably ten times cheaper too, as that looks like a tourist trap. Im'Qaret fig cakes can be bought hot and fresh in the Bieba Tal Valletta entrance to the town, where the busses go round the roundabout there is an Im'Qaret stall. I grew up there in the seventies. Maybe its all gone the places i mention.
Thanks Ajarn. We'll have a look if we end up in Malta again 🙂
Wow, I can see why you stayed longer, what a beautiful place to stay and yes very much like home,looked amazing and so clean and very friendly staff, so glad you had a great time and Thankyou for the great vlog, if I was like you going on adventures I would definitely come here without a doubt xx well done guys ❤️
Thanks very much Joanne 🙂
Thanks for your in-depth vlog found it very informative and would love to stay there looks very clean and tidy cheers guys
Thanks Tony!
Does the villa cost much more than 3 suites please?
It will be much cheaper overall for a villa rather than 3 separate rooms. Perfect for families or friends
we have been to goa over 25 times booked flights for december will be booking this resort good vlog.
It won’t disappoint! We hope you enjoy the resort as much as we did! The location is perfect! Thank you for you comment😍👌🏻
Hello, I'm planning to visit on next August....can you please let me know what will be the weather condition? Thanks
Hi. Unfortunately we're not weather people and can only comment how it was when we went. Google will show average temperatures for the time of year. Thanks for watching!
Hi there Bery ineresting video. I hope i will be there in a fortnight. I will check these places!!!
Thanks Maria!
Great blog guys
Thanks Ken 😊
Thats the Irish flag in your title ...
We're surprised it's taken someone over a year to notice. Thanks Katia!
This is brilliant. I’ve never been on a cruise and have been looking at Marella. So much information thank you 🥰
Glad we could help you Matt. Thanks for watching 🙂
Great video,feel so much more at ease I'm going on cocktails and coconuts with my wife Catherine it's our honeymoon and first anniversary and we can't wait just one question if you don't mind askingwhat currency is for the islands and on ship? thanks in advance.
Hi Liam. The ships currency is GBP and the majority of islands work in Eastern Caribbean dollars (EC) but take USD. Guadeloupe is the Euro but some places will accept USD. We only carried USD and had no issues. Hope it helps!
That's great thank you
hi I am going on this cruise in November for my honeymoon its good to know what you have said thanks for vidoe x
Hi Catherine. Glad it has helped. Many congratulations for then and we hope you have a wonderful time. Thanks for watching x 🙂
@ParksTravelGuide we be going over are first year anniversary I have been looking at other cruises I thought let you its on this loveitbook it x
Lovely video, best of luck ❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks very much 😊
Wonderful ! Really well put together, to the point, no flannel, entertaining and informative. Good to hear a truly great British accent. I like what you did.
Thanks very much. Comments like yours are a pleasure to read. We always say it how it is without any fakery. If it's good enough for us, it gets filmed. If it's not...then consider it forgotten. Thanks very much for watching 🙂
Great video? How did you do 4 nights or 3 nights? Also for the local ferry did you just have to turn up somewhere to get it or did you have to pre book?
Hey Louise. We did 4 nights as we dropped on some good flight times and prices from Kochi and then from Malé to Mumbai to continue our journey. With the local ferry you just turn up and join the queue then pay onboard. There's plenty of seating so even though it looks like a lot of people in line there is plenty of room. Thanks for watching! 🙂
@@ParksTravelGuide amazing thankyou!😊
Hi you….great to see you back, going to settle with this vlog ❤
Ey up Kezza! We didn't manage to do too badly in a couple of hours but don't worry we've got another 3 lined up. Our hotel in Candolim, Mumbai city tour and Inside Dharavi - the biggest slum in Asia. The last 2 will take some lengthy editing so we can't promise when the next ones will be out. Due to head away again in mid June so that will delay things a bit whilst we film there. No doubt you'll be looking forward to your next trip. Great to hear from you xx
@@ParksTravelGuide yesssssss, off to Skiathos on Sunday, will be our first time there! It has been on the bucket list for a while 😅😅
@kezzacollinson621 sounds great. Have a smashing time xx
Just returned from this ship, Barbados to Turkey. Well, where do I start. I've been on many cruises with Marella. Twice a year. It started well in Barbados, but it soon became apparent that it wasn't the usual Marella standard. The decor throughout the ship was shabby with peeling wallpaper and dirty seating, especially in the coffee port and the filthy Live room. Breakfasts were mostly bad in the main restaurant. Evening meals were better. Staff are fantastic and always happy. Several pensioners got involved in fighting during the cruise and were arrested. My advice for decent couples is to avoid the smelly Live room at all costs !!!
Hey there. Well, we thought it may have been isolated to our cruise but apparently not. Sad to read cleanliness standards have slipped in areas as we had no particular issues in that respect. It's definitely the staff who make Marella what they are. Hopefully you'll have a better voyage next time. Thanks very much for watching 🙂
I am traveling here next month. Loving your videos, very helpful. I have subscribed the channel and followin you on instagram too. Would you recommended carrying pounds or euros or local currency. Thanks
Hey Ranjit. Thanks very much for your support. We usually take pounds but if we plan on nipping over to Rhodes on the ferry you'll need euros. Both are accepted in Turkey although the only cash we carry is lira incase we go into any small bars. Occasionally we have GBP for shopping with so we know what we are spending. The rest of the time it's our Revolut or starling travel card. Hope you have a great time!
Looks absolutely beautiful place would love to visit there another fantastic vlog thanks guys
It was a good day out Tony. Thanks for watching
We spent two weeks in Au Nang. I trained at Kuen Suek Muay Thai while my buds slept off the debauchery in RCA night after night. We stayed at Pagi Pagi Villas, HIGHLY recommended! While I loved it there, my favourite spot in Thailand was easily Koh Phangan. Thanks for the vid!
We'll keep it in mind for the future Kris as we love recommendations. Thanks very much for watching 🙂
Love your videos 🤍✨🦋 well done on 9000 subs x
That means the world to us. Thank you for your support x
Do the restaurants serve alcohol on maafushi
Maafushi is a completely dry island and operates under Sharia law as we explained in the vlog. The boat we filmed is the only place to drink alcohol and it opens on an evening
Greetings from the uk we have been to goa over 20 times try palolem for a few days good vlog.
Hey Sammy. We were trying to squeeze it in but didn't manage it on this trip. Definitely on our hit list though for the future as we like to leave things to give us a reason to return. Thanks for watching 🙂
Great to see you guys vlogging again, you always deliver a fun informative video, keep up the good work x
Thanks Graham. We've got 3 more coming from India over the next month or 2 once we get time to edit them. Our hotel in Goa, Mumbai city tour and Inside Dharavi - the biggest slum in Asia.
We travel on Discovery in September to Turkey and the Greek islands…we did Explorer 2 last year and it was brilliant. If Discovery is as good we will be happy 👍🇬🇧😎
She has a lot of charm. You're doing one of our favourite routes too! Very jealous. Thanks for watching Alan and we hope you have a fantastic trip 🙂
Us the group of guys go out there every yr in March to watch the Cheltenham Festival. Been doing it for the last 6 yrs. We always Airbnb it, stay in Old Town. Beer cheap & the food is great out there
Can't beat a good trip with the boys. We plan to film a bit more of the Poniente side and old town next time. What are your recommendations?
Any country which solely depends on Tourism has SCAMS 90% of the times ....
Of course, but threatening with a machete is way too far. Unfortunately Sri Lanka has been the most prolific out of any destination we've visited. Luckily we have met a lot of good people to counteract that. Thanks for watching!
Brilliant looking forward to your new videos
Thanks guys 🙂
Just visited Benidorm for the first time! Loved it!! Can’t wait to go back tbh!
