Staying in Calangute
Calangute is a beach town on Goa's north coast, where a wide, sandy beach with gentle waves meets a main road lined with cafes, bars and shops selling handicrafts and clothing. It works as a base for the rest of North Goa too, with Baga and Anjuna a short drive away. These hotels sit within 0.2 to 1.4 km of the centre, mostly in the lanes off the main beach road: Gaura Waddo, Umta Vaddo, Naika Vaddo, Khobra Vaddo and Porba Vaddo, plus addresses on Baga Road and Fort Aguada Road.
The mix suits different trips. Couples get pools, bars and restaurants at ibis Styles Goa Calangute Hotel and Renest Calangute Goa, while families have family rooms at HALF Hotel Calangute, Fahrenheit Hotel and DiVaN Clarks Inn Goa. Business travellers can use the business centres and meeting rooms at Meritas Auberge Calangute Goa, Sairaj Beach Resort and Sunkissed Plaza. For a short break, the closest pick is ibis Styles at 0.2 km from the centre, matched by Nitya Resort.

Getting there and around
Calangute is about 40 km from Goa's Dabolim Airport and around 20 km from Panaji, the state capital; taxis and buses run from both. The nearest railway station is Thivim, about 15 km away. Within Calangute, walking covers the beach and the main road, scooters and motorbikes can be rented locally, and taxis or auto-rickshaws handle longer trips to nearby beaches and towns.
When to go
