Secluded from the bustle of the city and peacefully perched on the northern most tip of Goa is Fort Tiracol. Once an armed fortress that belonged to the Portuguese is now an idyllic hideaway for the discerning traveller. Leave behind the city life and get transported to 17th century Goa with uninterrupted views of the Arabian Sea and the captivating Tiracol river. The seven private, serene and charmingly designed rooms & suites come with unique Portuguese and contemporary interiors. Our deluxe rooms are spacious yet warm & private. The 2 luxury suites feature a separate living and bedroom as well as a spacious verandah with captivating views.

Built by the Maharaja of Sawantwad and thereafter revamped by the Portuguese in the 17th century, Fort Tiracol (also known as Terekhol Fort) is a symbol of hope for all Goans; it gives silent testimony to the hard won freedom that Goa enjoys today. The fort offers awe-inspiring views over the confluence of the river and sea waters as well as a bird’s eye view of the Querem and Kalacha beach. During its occupation, as per Portuguese customs, a church was built within the walls of the fort. Originally dedicated to the Holy Trinity, now a church of St. Anthony, the church still holds Sunday mass till this very day.

Fort Tiracol is open to the public from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM, the church is open for mass on Sundays. Visitors can also enjoy meals & drinks at the Tavern which is open to the public for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
