The recently renovated Fort Tiracol Heritage Hotel in Pernem recreates a luxurious past with modern conveniences, all on the edge of a cliff that overlooks some of the most beautiful views Goa has to offer

As unique hospitality experiences go, Fort Tiracol Heritage Hotel is a tale of awe-inspiring memories and well-thumbed photographs poured over with a smile. This 17th century fort, with ramparts overlooking some of the most enchanting views in Goa, is a window into the past with a soul that lives forever.
Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, the fort has changed many hands over the centuries, but each time returns with renewed sheen and purpose. Now in the masterful hands of stalwarts in the hospitality industry, Fort Tiracol Heritage Hotel at Goa’s northern-most point is a singular experience in eco-tourism, luxury, history, culture and relaxation, all rolled into one.

With the heavy influence of foreign rule in Goa for around 450 years, the interiors reflect a taste of the old Portuguese times, with hand-selected wooden furniture fashioned and carved by local craftsmen and tastefully chosen décor. But inconspicuously nestled among reminders of the past is every modern convenience
desired: from Wi-Fi and hot rain showers to air-conditioning and flat-screen televisions.
