GEORGINA’S RETREAT
GOA INDIA

GOA BUYING GUIDE
Variously known as “Rome of the East”, “Tourist Paradise” and “Pearl of the
Orient”, the state of Goa is located on the western coast of India in the coastal belt known as Konkan. A wonderful climate, colourful festivals, friendly people & superb cuisine are just some of the phrases used to describe Goa. The magnificent scenic beauty and the architectural splendours of its temples, churches and old houses have
made it a firm favourite with travelers around the world.

But then, Goa is much more than just beaches and sea. It has a soul which goes deep into unique history, rich culture and some of the prettiest natural scenery that India has to offer. Goa is one of the most alluring destinations on the Indian sub-continent.

 
OVERVIEW
Development: Georgina’s Retreat
Location: Betalbatim Beach, South Goa
1 bed apartments £22,000
2 bed apartments from £44,000
Completion December 2008

South Goa has become the discerning person’s ideal location in the former Portugese territory for those contemplating purchasing a holiday or retirement property. Colva Beach with its fabulous 26km of unbroken sand, fringed along its entire length by tropical coconut palms, dominates South Goa, which has all the charm and character of the North but is quieter and more discrete.

Georgina’s Retreat is an exclusive residential complex of apartments and penthouses close to the beach.  Georgina’s Retreat is an exciting new development of apartments and penthouses on an exclusive rural site with its own private swimming pool and maintained gardens. In addition, there are a number of beach bars and restaurants within a few hundred metres of the development offering additional facilities close by.

The development is conveniently situated approx 500 metres from the beach at Betalbatim and less than 1km from Betalbatim Village where there are local shops, post office, church, and bus services. The development is 7km from Margao, South Goa’s principal town where there are stores, markets, banks and a railway station, and 20km from the airport. Panjim, the capital of Goa, is 35km away.

Georgina’s Retreat is being developed by a small but highly respected firm of local builders, Silva Enterprises, who have successfully completed a number of other residential developments in the locality, including Marshall’s Retreat. Georgina’s Retreat offers an excellent opportunity for overseas clients to purchase a quality apartment in Goa at an affordable price.
