Thalassa

A Little

About Us

True to its name, Thalassa has always been about the spirit of the Sea. It is a multi-sensory experience with stunning views, classy Mediterranean décor and authentic Greek cuisine and hospitality. The outdoors is never far away and all the properties integrate nature’s abundance within its space.

Thalassa began on the waterfront in quaint Vaddy, Siolim and expanded to include another taverna in the heart of the city, Panjim. The latest in the Greek experience is a luxurious resort right on Morjim beach.

A quintessential Thalassa day starts slow with the soft sounds of water and birdsong. It then unfolds into a bright and cheerful brunch vibe with stunning backdrops to those gorgeous IG pictures you absolutely must click.

As the sun begins to dip, the sky puts on a show against the water for some spectacular sunsets. The magic doesn’t stop there but further transforms the space into a vibrant night with music and live performances.

Meet the people behind Thalassa

The heart and soul of Thalassa are Mariketty Grana and Spiro Grana , a mother-son duo who have recreated Grecian magic in the heart of a sleepy village in Goa. Their vision of Thalassa is evocative of traditional Greek hospitality.

Mariketty Grana

Much loved Mariketty dreamed of Thalassa Greek Taverna as a way to bring a bit of her Greek home in Corfu right in Goa where she has lived since over 25 years. She comes from a lineage of restaurateurs and has the magical touch in her food. She has been the life force behind this phenomenon called Thalassa. She is as much Greek as she is Goan and Thalassa is the result of the best of two worlds.

Spiro Grana

Spiro is truly his mother’s son with his unique touch. He is the quiet but powerful engine who ensures things run smoothly. Down to earth, easy going, he is a much loved man amongst the patrons. An animal lover and fitness enthusiast, he makes time for these passions even as his entrepreneurial acumen shines in his various ventures. He brings a native Indian touch to a greek inheritance.
