Stressful encounter
Art ved at the property and the manager said that our booking had been cancelled. After many hours wasted on contacting the website to sort it out, the owner told me later that they would honour the booking but I had already found alternative arrangements. Thankfully he gave me a cash refund but the entire experience was unpleasant and stressful. Time wasted on my holiday

Good choice
This place is run by a very nice family. They are very friendly and can advise and organise anything you want. The location is perfect with 1 min walk to the beach and you can hear the swell from the ocean. I’d come back because it’s good value for money and friendly people.

Great guesthouse next to the beach!
I stayed here for 3 nights and really enjoyed it. The room and facilities are comfortable and the location is steps from the beach..and easy access to explore the village and sights as well. I highly recommend this local guesthouse. Very nice family and will take good care of you.

Right next to beach!
Very good deal, as close to the beach as possible - right next to beach entrance. Looks cheerful outside. Rooms are basic but clean. As all other budget hotels in India, they use urinal fresheners as air fresheners so the scent is strong in the room. Screens on window so no mosquitos. Quiet and peaceful, no drunks. Lovely family that owns it, very nice and helpful.

"here is the beach and here is your yellow house"
Staying at Yellow House was a treat. It is sunshine in a building with a happy atmosphere. Family run, the family is welcoming and kind, keeping track of their guests welfare and offering plenty of suggestions as to how to enjoy the area. Day trips are organised to suit, car and driver super professional and caring. A short walk to the beach, slightly longer walk to other places. A very decent selection of restaurants and eateries for all tastes and budgets up the road and breakfast available daily at Yellow House on the roof terrace with jungle greenery as a backdrop for a coconut filled pancake and a delicious fruit salad. Some noise at night from beach revelry (the beach places conveniently ignore the 10pm watershed) can be disturbing, earplugs worked to filter out the worst. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Yellow House and would return in a heartbeat.

yellow house - vagator
only good point about this property is - its very near to sea...budget rooms are too small...there is no - television,mosquito repellents,no security guards....area is very dark with pigs roaming nearby....after 11 its tough to go beach...their restaurants not having any lunch or dinner facilities,inspite of knowing there is not much option outside....

REAL Goan stay
I absolutely adored my stay here. It is a family concern, so you get the real inside track. They are so helpful and welcoming. Nothing is too much trouble. They found me a driver who was not only unbelievably reasonably priced but also invited me into his house for a meal. Ask them to show you the back path behind the house to the fort. It brings you out in a tiny little village with beautifully coloured houses. Idyllic. The food and beer in the village are cheap and very good quality. Scooter hire or taxis are incredibly cheap. If you are planning to get a SIM card come prepared with a photocopy of your visa and the photo page of your passport, as well as the originals. Also bring a passport sized photo. Ask them for advice when booking trips. Some are better than others. Thanks, Yellow House : )

a small budget place to stay comfortably..
This is a small budget place to stay if u wish to be close to the ocean wid a middle class mentality. Its homely & nice feeling 2stay like friendz with a nice & disciplined catholic family. Simple bed & an attached washroom and just 5mts walk 2da Vagator Beach. They give you good guidance if you require on your tour & breakfast & vehicles if u desire. Anyway , Vagator night stays r 4people who require rest , solitude , romance and / or a bit of exploration around the place till Arambol or Anjuna and not for big families.So the set up has been made accordingly..

Never again!
No sheets on the bed, only blankets. We stayed there for 8 nights in February 2015. The room wasn't cleaned, nor bedding or towels changed for 4 days until we asked and again after a further 2 days. Every day we had to ask for a toilet roll. The 'Restaurant' was very poor, as was the one and only breakfast we eat there. Location;Out of the way, down a steep hill (on the edge of big Vagator beach) and down a further dirt track. Building in the vicinity, no other facilities in the area.

Quiet place to stay
We stayed here on first arriving in Goa, the room was functional, beds not comfortable at all. Hot water for shower only in the morning. Situated in a very quiet location so bike recommended. Food was good and cheap and the staff were brilliant. Overall it was a good start to get your bearings.

A decent budget hotel for couples..
I got to know abt this hotel frm Expedia and was impressed by the user reviews. So I booked it for me and my wife and was not at all disappointed. The room was clean and the surroundings were neat. The owners were very helpful and made sure we had evrything we needed. We wanted such type of hotel bcoz we kne that most of the time we would be travelling and so didnt want to waste money on luxurious rooms. Sothis fitted our requirement. Its very near to Vagator beach and the hotels nearby are also good. u can rent a bike frm the owners itself and so u wont have a difficulty in going anywhere. Baga and calangute beaches r 15 mins fm the Hotel. Overall a very niv=ce and pleasant stay and a wonderful trip.. Willsurely go back the next time...

Grubby
Okay, it was the end of the season, but the rooms are really grubby looking with marks all over the walls. Bed was rock hard, and curtains too thin to keep the light out. No AC or TV, only a fan to keep cool, but not very effective. Not for me, I will not be back.

Nice enough for a 2 star and close to the beach
Nice family run hotel with basic facilities, we arrived not realising that India's biggest dance music event, Sunburn, was on the door step, however there wasn't any noise pollution, although the beaches were very busy. Watch out for scam artists trying to clean your ears and if you are of a hedonistic nature offering to supply you herbs, in a moment of weakness we succumbed to both, at least the ear cleaner did supply the service!

Room was basic enough for a couple of nights stay, area was pretty quiet but I think that was just because it was the end of the monsoon season. Owner very helpful. 1 minute walk from the beach.

2 minute walk from Vagator beach!
The Yellow House isn't fancy at all, but it has everything you need if you're looking for a quiet location very close to the beach. Showers had hot water, and the rooms were furnished with clean sheets and towels. The mattress is pretty firm, which would be the only downside. The family that runs the hotel is extremely friendly and welcoming, and were very helpful in answering any questions and helping us navigate the local area. If you are ok with not have the most luxurious room and just want a simple and clean place to stay that is literally a 2 minute walk from the beach, the Yellow House is a great option!

J'ai beaucoup aimé cet endroit , l'accueil est top, l'endroit est convivial , les chambres sont grandes et très propres, bonne literie , tout fonctionne notamment l'eau chaude, il y a des prises électriques . la situation est super tout près de la plage de vagator , un garde pour la sécurité devant . Ayant été malade , le gérant m'a trouvé les médicaments qu'il fallait , m' a conduit à l'aéroport pour un avion à 6H30 , un très bon service sans jamais en faire trop. je recommande cet endroit si vous venez à vagator
