Designing an Airbnb in Goa comes with its own set of challenges: tight timelines, clear budgets, and the need to create a space that looks good, works well, and holds up to regular guest use. This 2BHK holiday home in Candolim was no different. The client was setting up a rental property and needed a quick turnaround. With limited time and budget, I leaned into curation as the design approach. Choosing well-made, ready-to-use pieces meant we could move quickly without compromising on the look or feel of the space. One of our first selections was wallpaper. It may have seemed like a small detail, but it gave me a clear glimpse into her style. She was drawn to a soft mint green, and that became the core of the design. We used the colour throughout the house, in upholstery, accessories, and wall accents, to create a sense of flow and connection between the rooms.
Instead of custom furniture, we sourced everything off-the-shelf and styled it carefully. From beds and sofas to artwork and lighting, each item was chosen to reflect the relaxed, welcoming vibe of a Goan holiday home, while staying within budget.
This project is a good example of how budget interior design for an Airbnb can still feel warm, cohesive, and thoughtfully put together. With the right colour cues and a curated approach, even a fast-track project can feel like home.
We loved working with Inner Space. Aanchal and Yogesh took the time to understand our lifestyle and designed the home around our needs, not trends. The team delivered high-quality work, and we’ve already recommended them to others in our building.
Every Inner Space home starts with a single conversation.
