THE PLACE
JUNGLE SETTING
Wigwam is located in a quiet bi-lane in Mandrem, in a serene, suburban area surrounded by jungle and nature, set aside from the main touristic areas near the beach that are just a short walk or drive away.
Boasting beautiful garden areas with outdoor seating, the vibe is relaxed and friendly with an open door policy. The 2800 sq metre property offers both Tipi accommodations spread across their lush grounds as well as independent apartments, an outdoor cafe and wellness areas.

THE STORY
Nic has been a DJ and events organiser for many years, with a passion for music and bringing people together.
Tanya has an enthusiasm for yoga, healthy food and maintaining a balanced lifestyle. She has been involved in events, fashion and interior design over the years.
They have both travelled the world for many years, experiencing different cultures and gaining inspiration for their own slice of paradise.
After visiting Goa for over over a decade, Tanya and Nic had not only collected many beautiful memories here but also made many friends that they realised Goa was the perfect place for their fun yet relaxed lifestyle balance.
WigWam has been many years in the making. Tanya and Nic had have made many connections over the years of travelling in Goa. With so many friends and family visiting, they decided to create their own ‘home from home’ with a fun, relaxed vibe, where they could also share their vast knowledge of Goa.
A few different locations were explored, but the jungle vibe seemed the most ideal fit.
A labour of love and dedication, WigWam has, over the course of a few years, slowly shaped into the jungle paradise it is today, and is constantly evolving.
