Been reading all your posts and have found them very informative. I am going to Goa Varca beach staying at the Club Mahindra for 2 weeks in January6th for my partners 50th birthday and must admit I am a bit aprehensive. My friend went a few years ago and hated it but she does not like beaches and is not very adventurous so they did not go amywhere so I wont read too much into that unfortunately though I have always been a usa fantic and certainly like my home comforts so what I want to know is whether Varca is near any attractions is it easy to get around are we near enough to Hampi to pay a visit. For my partners birthday I would like to take him on the overnight cruise which goes down to see the sun setting are we able to do this from where we are based. I would like to ride an elephant is this possible.How much money do I need to take for two weeks and finally is the very well reccomended bettys any where near us and if not how do we get there. Thank you so much for reading this and hopefully pointing me in the right directions.
