Accommodation
As we've said, there are just 27 villa style accommodations at
SwaSwara. Each Villa, (and for that matter, the rest of the resort as
well) is inspired by the traditional family estates that dot the
Konkan coast, and if we've added aircon and modern fittings, they do
little to disturb the authenticity of your experiences here. Natural
materials are used throughout, most of them sourced locally from the
artisans of the area.

The Cuisine of SwaSwara
The food at Swaswara is in keeping with the natural spirit that
inspires everything else here. The accent is on the fruits of the land
and the sea. And the focus is on freshness, pure and simple. We avoid
meats, concentrating on the fresh catch of local shellfish and seafish.
Fresh produce from the farms surrounding Swaswara provides the
accompaniment.
Hard liquor is avoided. Instead, we serve up a selection of fine
wines, both imported and local (we highly recommend you try a few of
the latter, specially the reds). |

The Spaces
Om Beach is aptly named. This Sanskrit letter , echoed faithfully in
the sweep of the rocks and sand below you, is referred to in the
ancient Hindu texts at the original sound of creation. Other visitors
to the beach need to take a winding trail around the bluffs, but from
SwaSwara, you can use our own private path opening into a peaceful
section of waterfront.
A 20 minute boat ride from Om will also fetch you up at a number of
other beaches. Some bear romantic names (Half-moon Beach, Paradise
Beach), most are isolated and at some, you won't see a single soul at
all. |
