Dreamcatcher

Palolem


One of the largest hut resorts in Palolem, Dreamcatcher’s 60-plus sturdy huts are nevertheless secluded, set in a coconut grove just back from the far northern end of the beach. One of the highlights here is the riverside restaurant and cocktail bar, plus the wide range of holistic treatments, massage and yoga on offer, with drop-in yoga and reiki courses available.

Access it from the back road running parallel to the beach.
