MOTHER AND CHILD STATUE The deep copper and bronze sculpture seen at the Porte CochĂŠre is a symbol of protection, and healing represented by a mother and child. Just like the holy Tulsi welcoming each guest in homes seen in villages. The mother and child sit on a silent fountain pool enjoying gentle ripples of water, whispering to each other about the arrival of each and every guest.

CAPIZ SHELLS The name #CapizBar is derived from the #CapizShells that are exclusively found on the #Bambolim Bay
OUR CHAPEL BELL This bell is a reminder to everyone that once in a while, you need to pause, take a deep breath and enjoy what life has to offer. When you hear the bell ring, it is our calling to ensure you do not miss the blazing sun set for the day. Gather around our chapel every evening to witness natures’ farewell to the day and greetings for the night.
26
OUR 17TH CENTURY CHAPEL Our chapel has two stories of its origin. Legend has it down as a chapel built by the local fishermen as a place for worship. But after the plague of the mid 17th century, it was abandoned which lead for its destruction. However historians have a different story to tell. They believe that this Chapel was built in 1613 by Gonsalo Pinto da Fonseca when Bambolim was declared as a separate parish. This chapel lost its prominence in 1616 when a new church was built on Orth de Vigar or Padigaracho Dongor. Our Lady of Belem, Confraria Nossa Senhora De Belem church which is now located on the hill, regularly sees people coming in for Sunday Mass. Until the hotel was built, fishermen still used this place as a safe house to store their nets or other fishing equipment for safekeeping under God’s protection. Till date, locals come to pray at this chapel.
TERRAZZO FLOORS Terrazzo flooring is unique system of tilling that was used in ancient India. Featuring across the resort, this floor style is similar to mosaic tiles, however Terrazo uses rectangular tile biscuits. Each rectangular piece has been hand placed therefore causing some unique imperfections across the floors.

The restaurant design is inspired by the historic, community dining spot, Clube Nacional in Panaji, the city centre of Goa.
