A quote from a recent guest about the views:

"Saffron Nest has the best position in the whole resort, with great views front and back. Just this morning we’ve been watching storks, ibis, egrets, herons and paddy birds in the pond at the front. At the same time there were Brahminy kites, lapwings and various other birds circling above. Spectacular!"

John Walsh (regular guest)

Accommodation has all mod cons including cable TV, hot water and AC. Benaulim's immaculate quiet beach is nearby and the location is a great base to explore the surrounding areas.

Relaxing holiday
We have recently returned from a 3 week stay in Saffron Nest and are already planning for next year. We had a wonderful time and are hoping to return. Our favourite place was sitting on the balcony watching and photographing the wild wild life, with the French doors, front and back, wide open causing a through draught. We know the area very well, as we have been going to Benaulim since 2005 and found the accommodation to be the best we have stayed in. It’s well furnished and cupboards and drawers well stocked. Myra, the apartment manager and her daughter changed the bed linen and towels and cleaned as we requested and were very easy and nice to deal with. We would highly recommend this apartment.

A really comfortable apartment in a great location
We enjoyed our holiday enormously, as we always do, having stayed there quite a few times now. The apartment is well furnished and spacious, with two good sized bedrooms and two bathrooms. Each morning and evening, we sat on the balconies watching storks, herons, kites, kingfishers and a variety of other species all going about their business - a great way to start the day and an equally great way to see the sun go down. The apartment is on a gated estate with a central swimming pool area, all very well maintained. We particularly enjoy the fact that the estate is quiet and relaxed, with a friendly atmosphere. The shops and restaurants of Benaulim are just a short walk away and the beach is within easy reach. We’ve been going to Goa for a few years now and in this apartment we have found the ideal place to stay.

Clean Property in a Great Location
Stayed at this apartment for nearly Three weeks and enjoyed each day. Apartment conveniently situated for a trip to the Beach and also all the amenities were within walking distance. Variety of Restaurants and Shops were located within 5 Minutes walking from the apartment. The apartment itself is located in a secured and quite location. Recommend a stay here for all. Owner and Lady servicing the apartment are very easy to get on and a source of great information for the Local area. We thank them both for making our stay and Holiday a memorable occasion.

Lovely apartment, good location
Absolutely love Benaulim and the apartment was in a great location, close to a good selection of restaurants. The apartment is as it is in the pictures, lovely and clean, light and airy. The only negative was the pool was closed for maintenance for the week we were there which was really inconvenient with 2 young children who weren't impressed! The apartment is on a complex which is gated and safe. It was on the 4th floor, accessed via a lift which can temperamental (as my 6 year old found out when he tried to go in it alone so beware!!). The beach was 3/4 of a mile, we walked it and took in breakfast/drink on the way there and back. I would recommend the apartment for couples and families; if the pool was fully functioning.

Just the most perfect experience. If ever one wants to stay in Goa but live in Europe, this property will check all those boxes. Comfy, neat, cozy, equipped, roomy. Kudos to the owners. Good job. We left early morning & by the time we reached th airport we missed the apartment. Highly recommended. Location, view, security, silence, upkeep. Running out of words.

Excellent
Loved this apartment, clean modern and well equipped couldn't ask for more. We had a bad experience when we arrived at benaulim with another booking so we were left with nowhere to stay, and the owner couldn't have been more helpful in assisting us. Would definately recommend and many thanks again.

Amazing!
A truly amazing experience. Benaulim is such a wonderful place. The people are so genuine and friendly - didn't meet one person that we didn't like! Saffron Nest is perfect. Clean and fresh. The local host, Myra, made us feel very welcome - nothing was too much trouble for her. Would definitely return - a real home from home.
