Villa Interiors in Goa — Curtains, Sofas & More

The typical villa in Goa is not a showpiece; it is a working holiday home. Two to five bedrooms around an open living and dining space, sliding glass onto a pool or a garden, a caretaker who comes in a few times a week, and an owner who may live in Mumbai, Bengaluru, Dubai or London. In season it is full of family or paying guests. From June to September it is often shut up, and that closed, humid house is where furnishings either survive or fail.

So the brief for a villa is different from a flat you live in all year. Fabrics have to tolerate months of damp without anyone opening a window. Sofas have to take wet swimwear, sunscreen and sand. Bedrooms have to be dark enough for guests who arrived on a late flight. Nets have to keep the evening mosquitoes out of rooms whose doors open straight onto a lawn. And every choice has to be simple enough that a caretaker can look after it.

We furnish villas room by room or all at once — one visit to walk every opening and wall, samples held up in your own light, and a single quote you can approve from wherever you are. If the villa is being let, we plan around the season so it is ready before the first booking.
