Long before the pandemic changed everyone’s perception of travel, the picturesque village of Aldona was a reminder of a Goa beyond the beaches, casinos and parties. Its pastoral beauty continues to attract travellers venturing offthe beaten track. The need of the hour—well-equipped, WiFi-connected and scenic luxury rentals for work-fromhome adults and Zoom-schoolers—is not a difficult ask at Aldona’s The Glass Villa.
A four-bedroom, two-storey villa that is now available to book out entirely, The Glass Villa is an hour’s drive from the airport and a 40-minute ride from Panaji. It can sleep eight adults comfortably, has an in-house chef, good WiFi and even the rare-in-Goa 4G connectivity.
