Located at the far southern end of Patnem beach next to a small verdant mountain, you will find the prime location on one of Goa's most pleasant beaches. The retreat will be held in south Goa, India. South Goa is the more serene half of the state, and for many travellers thats the attraction. There are fewer activities and not as many bars, clubs or restaurants, but overall the beaches of the south are cleaner, whiter, and not as crowded as those in the north. Featuring a beachfront, Lotus Oasis Beach Huts Resort is located in Patnem.
