South Goa is well known for its long swathes of white sand beaches, and among the best of these is beautiful Varca Beach, stretching for 10km along the coast. Right by the beach sits the aptly-named Zuri White Sands Resort. Set in 38 acres of landscaped gardens, the resort features spacious guest rooms, a large swimming pool and a variety of dining options ranging from Pan Asian to delicious local Goan cuisine. The elegantly furnished, cool and spacious rooms each have a private balcony overlooking either the pool or the lush gardens. There’s air-conditioning and free WiFi, and the en suite bathrooms have a luxurious rain shower cubicle. Maya Spa offers Ayurvedic and western style massages and healing therapies, as well as a sauna, steam room and jacuzzis. Outside, the large, freeform swimming pool is warmed by the sun and shaded by palm trees, and the swim up bar means you don’t need to leave the poolside to enjoy some refreshments.
