At the end of the 15th century, when Vasco de Gama sailed to the western coast of India, he discovered a beautiful natural harbour formed by the islands off Karwar in Karnataka. They christened it Cintacora. For guests who first arrive here, the feeling of being an explorer still remains as you are cut off from the rest of the world. Located on the island of Kurumgad, Cintacor is only accessible by the resort’s boat from Karwar. Besides breathtaking views of the Arabian Sea from the resorts’ stunning infinity pool, the island also has a private beach area with a bar.

The resorts Spa has an edge of the world feeling with views of the Arabian Sea. 80% of the islands foliage has been untouched ensuring its protection for a rich and diverse ecosystem.
