Day 180. Mandrem beach, Goa, India. Up the Villa.

After a frustrating morning of dodgy directions, dead ends and wrong turns our driver finally managed to find the villa we've rented for the next 7 days.
Beach villa Goa
On first impressions it seems absolutely perfect. Only yards from a long, pristine beach. Very tastefully appointed with the funkiest open-air bathrooms imaginable; allowing for starlit showers and bringing a whole new meaning to the term 'mooning'.

Second impressions bring a few gripes. There's no communal living area, no kitchen and the third bedroom is a glorified corridor.

We stew on this a while. Rearrange some furniture and conclude that the place is indeed completely fabulous after all.

A nice bit of nosh at a nearby restaurant, a few beers and everyone goes to bed happy.
