A boutique hotel, a secret-recipe kitchen and a much-loved bar — creating friends since 1979.

The Cavala story

Creating friends since 1979

Cavala isn't a chain and never wanted to be. For over four decades we've welcomed travellers to Baga the old-fashioned way — with a warm room, a good meal, a cold drink and a bit of music.

Family-run and full of character, we sit a short walk from the beach in the heart of Goa's most-loved village. Come as a guest; leave as a friend.

The restaurant

Secret Goan recipes, given time

Fiery vindaloos, coconut-rich curries and the day's freshest catch — the flavours that have kept friends coming back for generations, paired with a proper drink from the bar.
