Complimentary Bikes at Saltamontes: Explore Anjuna Your Way

One of the best parts about staying in Anjuna is the freedom to explore—quiet lanes shaded with palm trees, unexpected viewpoints, cafés tucked between rice fields, and those little local corners you only find when you wander without a plan. At Saltamontes, we wanted our guests to experience this side of Goa with ease. So we decided to keep it simple: complimentary bikes for every staying guest.

Saltamontes isn’t just a café or a co-working spot—it’s a little ecosystem of travellers, remote workers, creators, and locals who often end up discovering Goa together. The complimentary bikes align with that spirit: slow travel, community, and giving people the space to explore at their own pace.

A More Personal Way to Experience Anjuna

Most people picture Goa as beaches and nightlife, but Anjuna has a softer side—narrow village roads, sunrise views you have to hunt for, and local bakeries that open before the crowd wakes up. When you’re cycling around, you become part of the rhythm of the neighbourhood instead of rushing past it.

With the bikes, guests often explore:

  • Anjuna and Vagator beaches
  • Local markets, especially the Wednesday Flea Market
  • Independent cafés and small bakeries
  • Hidden sunset points
  • Neighbourhood grocery stores and fruit carts
  • Boutique stores and designer pop-ups

It’s a simple convenience, but it changes how your stay feels. Instead of being dependent on taxis or scooters, you can grab a bike and just go.

Eco-Friendly, Easy, and Definitely More Fun

Saltamontes attracts a lot of digital nomads, remote workers, and long-stay travellers—people who already appreciate sustainability and slow living. Having bicycles available supports that mindset. It’s a greener alternative, and it also fits the vibe of a co-living and co-working community that values mindful choices.

Plus, riding a bike through Anjuna is just… fun. The air feels lighter, the roads feel friendlier, and your plans feel less rigid. You can take detours, follow random signboards, stop for chai, or turn down a road simply because the trees looked nice. Goa is meant to be experienced that way.

Part of the Saltamontes Experience

Saltamontes started as a café and community space, and over time it became a place where travellers live, work, connect, and build memories. We host events, we serve great food and cocktails, and we create spaces where people feel comfortable—whether they’re working on a laptop, grabbing brunch, or dancing at a night event.

The complimentary bikes are just another extension of that hospitality. It’s our way of saying: Feel at home. Move freely. Explore like a local.

Guests often return telling us about the unexpected spots they discovered—quiet chapels, scenic routes, or a viewpoint someone casually mentioned at breakfast. It’s always a reminder that the best parts of Goa aren’t always on Google Maps; they’re found on the road you decide to take.

If you’re planning a stay in Anjuna and want a blend of comfort, community, and the freedom to explore, Saltamontes might be the perfect fit. And if you see someone cycling past with a big smile—it’s probably one of our guests enjoying the ride.
