About this place The Woodside Inn Goa

The Woodside Inn is an LGBTQ+-friendly hotel located in Benaulim, one of Goa's most popular coastal destinations. Situated near the Taj Exotica resort in the Calvaddo area, the property offers convenient access to some of the region's most beautiful beaches and laid-back village atmosphere. Benaulim is known for its long stretch of golden sand, fishing villages, and relaxed vibe—making it an ideal base for LGBTQ+ travellers seeking both beach time and cultural exploration. Goa has long been a welcoming destination for LGBTQ+ visitors, with a thriving community presence, particularly in beach areas like Benaulim. The region offers a mix of water sports, beach shacks, restaurants, and accommodation options catering to diverse travellers. As an LGBTQ+-focused hotel, this property recognizes the needs and preferences of queer guests, providing a space where you can travel authentically without concern. The proximity to established tourism infrastructure means you'll find dining, entertainment, and activities nearby. When planning your stay, keep in mind that Benaulim is quieter and more residential than some of Goa's busier beach towns—which appeals to many travellers seeking a more peaceful experience. The location near Taj Exotica places you within easy reach of upscale amenities while maintaining access to the area's more casual charm. For practical details about rooms, amenities, and current offerings, we recommend checking directly with the property or contacting GayOut's travel team.

Management is too good with their service. Location is good. Room was big enough with balcony and working Jacuzzi. Room and washroom both were clean. Even common washroom was clean. Pool has good depth with clean water. In house restuarant Bullion is good. No complaints. Breakfast was unexpectedly great and suprised me.

Superb property in Goa. Best thing is their swimming pool is very clean and nice. Room is also comfortable but there is no lift but no issue helpful staff. And the vibe in the restaurant below is also great.

Had a wonderful stay at Woodside Inn Goa! The property is beautifully maintained, with clean and comfortable rooms that make you feel at home. The staff were warm, friendly, and always willing to help, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The location is excellent—peaceful yet conveniently close to the beach, restaurants, and local attractions. The atmosphere is relaxing, perfect for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy Goa at its best. Overall, a fantastic stay with great hospitality, comfort, and value for money. I would definitely recommend Woodside Inn Goa and would love to stay here again on my next visit.
