Yab Yum @ Jivana Plantation
Sitting on the hillside above the sleepy village of Dandos Wadda, just 2km from Ashwem beach and overlooking paddy fields, Yab Yum at Jivana Plantation is the perfect retreat for escapists, artists, yoga enthusiasts and explorers, or simply for those seeking respite from the frenzy of modern life.
Jivana's accommodation is scattered throughout 2.5 acres of lush, terraced gardens, which are lovingly tended and play host to mango, cashew and guava trees, tulsi and banana plants and a squadron of butterflies.
A 5-minute bike ride from the lively village centre of Mandrem, a 10-minute ride from the tourist enclave of Arambol, and 30 minutes from the throng of Mapusa, Jivana is an oasis of calm where you can sit and watch the stars in privacy and comfort before the sounds of rural India lull you to sleep.
Jivana Plantation offers a range of accommodation, from Cottages which sleep 2, to the Garden House which sleeps 4, to the larger Temple House which sleeps 8 and has a fully equipped kitchen and huge, private living areas.
