To celebrate my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary, I had something in mind that was way different than usual—a place that would be memorable. After a lot of thinking, we decided to book the whole five-room property at The Postcard Saligao, a luxury retreat tucked away in the picturesque village of Saligao in North Goa. Having savored all that luxury resorts in North Goa had to offer, I can safely say that what The Postcard Saligao brings to our celebratory events is nothing but unmatched serenity, elegance, and Goan charm.
The Charm of Luxury Resorts in North Goa
There is something so unique in The Postcard Saligao—to me, a perfect blend of all present in modern extravagance combined with a flawlessly traditional Goan ambiance. Saligao is a quiet corner in which this resort is set, giving testimony to the still preserved heritage of its 16th-century surroundings. Certainly, as soon as we arrived, we knew that it wasn’t one of those high-end properties but one with a story to tell, providing an intimate and luxurious experience that was not similar to other luxury resorts in North Goa.
This property oozes a tranquility that is rare to find in the hustling tourist areas of Goa.

Exactly the kind of atmosphere we hoped for to celebrate such a significant milestone in our family life.
Elegant Living Spaces: It was one of the most beautiful luxury resorts in North Goa. The impeccable accommodation made our stay at The Postcard Saligao truly memorable. Every one of the five rooms and suites here in this luxury resort in North Goa is a testament to modern design infused with Goan spirit. Here, the air was a blend of minimalist décor along with the elegant touches of local craftsmanship that provided a serene environment that was at once sophisticated yet comforting.
Designed to let the outside in, the rooms and gardens’ natural beauty mingles well with modernist interiors. So waking up each day, especially when big windows allowed early morning rays in and gentle sounds of nature, became a gentle caress. Such a celebration, as my parents’ golden anniversary, was made all the more delightful with such luxurious and private space.
Experience local flavors: This is a different feature of luxury resorts in North Goa: Saligao, its neighborhood, as a feature of luxury resorts in North Goa is not really seen. Though leisurely walks and exploration did happen throughout this locality, with its Indo-Portuguese houses and historic churches painted across this countryside as a lovely backdrop.
We had fruitfully utilized our time while exploring Saligao by guided walks. With this, we benefited from rich historical environments as well as lively local culture. This went beyond being memorable when we were given a traditional afternoon tea in a local home, a special offering that offered a personal feel to our celebration. It is such raw experiences that make The Postcard Saligao stand out as some of the luxury resorts along the coast of North Goa, through which guests can quite closely connect with the people and cultures.
