Resorte Marinha Dourada is a huge three-pearl resort spread across over multiple buildings on the banks of a twin pair of lakes. The 206 guest rooms are all more or less the same, with air-conditioning and basic amenities such as cable TV and large minibar refrigerated minibars, but they lack Wi-Fi, kettles, and adequate soundproofing. Amenities are a bigger selling point, with room service, two bars, multiple pools, a fitness center, and a simple spa and beauty salon. Lake activities including paddle boat rentals and fishing. Expect a five-minute walk to the Baga Night Market and a 10-minute free shuttle ride to the beach. Many of the guests here are package tourists, and there are plenty of better options in the area for independent travelers, such as Pride Sun Village Resort and Spa.

Apple House is a two-pearl guest house located on a quiet road, a few minutes' walk from the center of the inland community of Arpora. It's a five-minute walk to shops and restaurants but a solid 20-minute walk from the nearest beach in Baga. The 10 guest rooms are pleasant and bright, but simple with standard dark-wood furniture and air-conditioning. A few of the units have furnished balconies. Facilities include free Wi-Fi and a free hot international breakfast. While there's no restaurant, other meals can be arranged on request with advance notice. Those looking for beachfront digs on the cheap may want to consider staying in Baga instead, perhaps at the budget-friendly Hotel Bonanza near the beach.
