xmas in goa

we've bought flights to goa from 26th dec to 31st, but not booked accommodation (daft, i know). Worse, we're taking my wife's aunt and uncle with us and our kids. Does anyone have any great suggestions or know great places with availability?

cheers

You've left it a bit late but there's always something. Plenty of room on the beach.

Josan165, the list that you posted is neither accurate and neither is it of any use to an average family visiting Goa for the first time. Some of the hotels/guesthouses in that list are absolute shitholes! From that list one can not tell whether,

1) The hotel is close to the beach
2) Whether the hotel has a swimming pool, room service etc.
3) Whether the hotel is being marketed to families(package tourists) or whether its mainly for backpackers.

Just posting a long list of hotels is meaningless if you don't know the background information of those hotels.

Anyone has details on the Caravelo Casino Ship in Goa?
Is there a bar and dining area as well?
What are the charges?
Gambling is with rupees only?
