Shivers Oasis Luxury Boutique Resort

Shivers Oasis Luxury Boutique Resort is an adults-only stay built around the useful parts of a diving holiday: air conditioning, a private bathroom, a balcony, a restaurant, and somewhere to sit with a drink. The setting is more garden retreat than large resort complex, with inner-courtyard and garden views giving the rooms a quieter outlook.

You can keep the evening as simple as you like. Head to the bar, settle outside, play a game of billiards or darts, or let the live music and karaoke make the decision for you. There is also a games room and an outdoor dining area, so the resort has enough going on for a couple who wants company without requiring a full entertainment programme every night.

The practical point is that this is a resort for adults, but the wider booking policy welcomes children of any age. If that distinction matters for your trip, check the exact room conditions before committing.

You are in Candolim, India, on the north side of Goa rather than in a remote beach compound. Sinquerium Beach is about 0.3 miles away, and Candolim Beach is also about 0.3 miles away. The resort has direct access to a golden sand beach, with sun loungers and parasols for the important business of doing very little once the kit is put away.

Fort Aguada is about 0.8 miles away as the nearest listed landmark, with a walking distance of about 1.1 miles. Aguada Children’s Park is around 0.9 miles away, while Butterfly Lawns is about 1.4 miles away. For a broader outing, Salim Ali Bird Sanctuary is about 6 miles away and Chapora Fort about 7 miles away.

You have several places to eat and drink close by, including Sai Raj Restaurant at roughly 300 feet, Shivers Lounge Bar at about 50 feet, and Madhuban Bar & Restaurant at around 600 feet. Dabolim Airport is about 24 miles away by road, while Manohar Parrikar International Airport is about 18 miles away by road.

The room choice is fairly easy to read in human terms. Couples who want one proper bed should look first at the Super Deluxe Double Room, with its extra-large double bed and a little more room to spread out. The Deluxe Double or Twin Room uses two single beds, which is more practical when separate sleeping arrangements matter than when romance is the main item on the packing list.

Every room has air conditioning, a private bathroom, a balcony, and a view towards the garden or inner courtyard. There is also a fan, soundproofing, a private entrance, a wardrobe, and a seating area with a desk. That gives you somewhere to drop the day’s clothes, somewhere to sit with a drink, and a better chance of keeping the room from turning into a damp equipment cupboard in your head, even if the actual diving arrangements are elsewhere.

A refrigerator and minibar cover the basic return-to-room routine, while room service means you do not necessarily have to leave the room again for a small meal. Daily housekeeping, Wi-Fi throughout the hotel, a flat-screen TV, and streaming services are included in the room setup. The accessible ground-floor units may suit guests who prefer to avoid stairs.

The Oasis Restaurant handles breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with a buffet breakfast to get the day started without negotiating a menu before you have properly woken up. The kitchen works across international dishes, while the booking description also lists Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai, and other Asian cuisines. That gives you more range than a one-dish beach café, particularly useful when several nights of eating need some variation.

There is one named bar on the resort side: The Beach Bar, focused on cocktails and beach views. The outdoor dining area and patio let you eat outside, and the restaurant is described as offering both a modern and a romantic setting. For a quieter drink, the separate Shivers Lounge Bar is only about 50 feet away.

A minibar is available in the rooms, and the resort also has barbecue facilities. The dining setup is not presented as an all-inclusive or half-board plan, so you should treat the buffet breakfast and the restaurant’s lunch and dinner service as the core arrangement rather than assuming every meal is bundled into the stay.

The outdoor pool gives you a place to cool down without making another trip to the beach. The resort’s garden, outdoor furniture, patio, loungers, and parasols keep the non-diving hours straightforward: swim, sit, read, and wait for the heat to become someone else’s problem.

The Spa offers massages and facial treatments, which is the more sensible option when your shoulders have spent the day carrying equipment. The games room adds billiards and darts, while karaoke, live music, live performances, and televised live sport provide evening diversions. You can also join a local culture tour or class and themed dinner nights, both available at an additional charge.

For activities beyond the property, the listed options include snorkelling, diving, hiking, canoeing, windsurfing, and fishing. Those take place off site, so the resort works better as a comfortable base than as a place that tries to organise every waking minute for you.

Check-in runs from 13:00 to midnight, and check-out from 10:00 to 12:00. That late check-in window is useful if your flight or transfer reaches Candolim in the evening; the airport shuttle is available through the property, with the service arranged separately from the room booking.

Free private parking is available on site, although a reservation is needed. Car hire is also available if you want to reach places such as Fort Aguada, Reis Magos Fort, or the more distant beaches without building the day around local transport. Wi-Fi is free throughout the hotel, and currency exchange is available at reception.

Payment before arrival by bank transfer is required, and the property provides the instructions after booking. During the stay, extras can be paid with Visa, Mastercard, or cash. Laundry, dry cleaning, and ironing are available as paid services, while lockers, daily housekeeping, non-smoking rooms, and a designated smoking area cover a few of the less glamorous but genuinely useful details.

No environmental certification or specific sustainability programme is presented for the resort.
