Hotel Details
Hotel : Lua Nova
Hotel Rating : 2*
The Lua Nova is a small, friendly hotel located behind the main Baga Road. This is a quiet property within a busy resort as it backs onto wide open paddy fields. Featured by us in the past, this hotel is ideal in that it is an approximate 5-minute walk from Baga Beach.
The attractive garden surrounding the property is a welcome retreat with a swimming pool in the shape of a guitar, sunbeds, garden furniture and an outdoor restaurant and bar. The views across the fields can also be appreciated from the first-floor covered terrace, a great place from which to use the binoculars or enjoy a good novel in peace. Reception provides a number of services including safety deposit boxes for a small local charge.
The twin rooms all have a fridge, ceiling fan, en-suite shower and WC, and a balcony or terrace. Board is offered on a Bed & Continental Breakfast basis and the Christmas festive meal is included. A great little base offering peace and quiet in a resort that is renowned for its fantastic beach and hectic lifestyle.
19 rooms on 2 floors.

Resort : Baga Beach
Description: Baga Beach is the most northerly of this more ‘commercial’ part of beach life in Goa. Early afternoon is one of the busiest beaches we’ve seen. The sunbeds are lined up like soldiers in front of the endless string of beach shacks and amidst the hustle and bustle and throng of tourists you’ll see a cow or two lying peacefully in the sun or slowly ambling along the beach.
The Goans have a way of sharing life with the fauna around them and it’s great to see this love being shared by visitors. Despite the wonderful hustle and bustle, the fishermen still fish as they have always done. In Baga the beach shacks are relatively sophisticated with electricity and tablecloths. It’s wonderful to sit in a shack late in the afternoon swapping tales of the days exploits with fellow holidaymakers. It’s also easy to get distracted by the little tailor shops amongst the shacks.
This is also the place for nightlife including ‘Kamaki’, ‘Tito’s’ and ‘Mambo’s’ bars.

Review Title : My Goan Family Your Rating 5 Stars. Made By yvonne Chapman on 23/02/2008
I found this hotel to have the friendliest staff possible, treated us like family - the hoel is basic, but all staff tried their best to give one a very happy holiday, which they achieved.
From the management down to the cleaning staff, gardeners, electrician Security, chefs, waiters, little tailor shop - jewellers - everyone unbelievably welcoming - we can't wait to return.
I love to watch birds, and the birds in the coconut trees just beautiful. Yvonne Chapman

Review Title : Squeeze beach shack Your Rating 5 Stars. Made By dave french on 12/05/2008
Went to the Squeeze beach shack every day.
Great food, great position, really friendly all was spoilt by one waiter named Wally.
He was rude, offensiveand very unhelpful. At one point he ever tried to assault my wife and accused our fried of using drugs!
A real piece of work! He spoils it for everyone.
The other waiters are great but avoid Wally like the plague!!!

Review Title : Best Beach Shack Your Rating 5 Stars. Made By Caroline on 01/12/2008
The Shining Star Beach Shack is the best... for food, service and friendliness from all the staff.
If you want excellent food try anything, never had a bad meal. Ask for Reddy, he'll make sure that your day is a good one... If you need a taxi, Sam's brother does a great service..

Review Title : SQUEEZE SHACK Your Rating 5 Stars. Made By Carl on 26/12/2008
Peope have been slagging poor old Wally off yet he is really cool.
Im still in Goa & Wally hs organised all my trips 4 me & cheap taxi owned by squeeze shack.
He is very helpful. Some of the other lads cn get annoying when they become familiar with you asking for drinks & wanting to giving you massages etc all day.
Wally lent me an indian phone & sim card for my hols at no cost just top up phone like home.
I am not looking 4ward 2 going home as i have has a gr8 3 weeks so far everyday at squueze shack.
Riverside regency is a good hotel to stay in too which is at the end of the dirt path opp squeeze.
Dont be put off from a couple of neg reviews of wally etc.
Well if you coming out here enjoy!!!!!
