Art Resort Goa - Art Lovers' Paradise

1st March 2022 - 6th March 2022, 

We were on our trip to Goa, we had chosen Palolem, South Goa as our place of stay between 1st March 2022 and 6th March 2022. This is the time we explored Art Resort Goa. To be honest it became our best hangout place. We had read about it as a must visit place when in Palolem and Art Resort Goa did not disappoint us.
We were a regular visitor to the place. We spent our evenings over finger licking fresh food and Live Performances. During day we spent time taking art lessons from the art teachers and mentors at the place. We also took a Massage at the Ayurvedic Massage Parlor in the complex. We also attended a fair that was organized in the premise which had various food items, musical instruments, art work etc for sale. In all we just thoroughly enjoyed the place and in a way kind of saved our holiday with some refreshing activities at the place. We did not get a chance to live at the resort but I am sure it would have been an equally good experience.
Here I share my experience and information that we gathered about the place so that one may know about the fabulous resort and fellow travelers planning to visit Palolem can spend their quality time at the resort.

Art Resort Goa - Art Classes:

While we were at the Art Resort we got an opportunity to learn painting from the mentors at Art Resorts. Our mentor was himself a well trained and well educated Artist. He himself had painted some fabulous paintings which were on display for sale. 
He took painting classes between 10:30 - 11 am in the morning till 4 - 4:30 pm in the evening. It is best to talk with the mentor beforehand for his time so as to avoid any disappointment.
The painting class fee was Rs. 800 which included the art lessons, the canvas and the paints. You can carry back the painting that you painted.  It was such a nice experience to learn and submerge yourself in the world of colors.
