About W Goa
W Goa sits on a hillside above Vagator Beach in North Goa, next to the ruins of Chapora Fort. Its rooms, suites, chalets and villas are spread across the hillside and gardens.
What sets it apart is its energy: music, a busy pool scene and sunset drinks at Woo Bar above the sea. It suits couples and groups of friends who want style and nightlife, though families are welcome too.
