Mateus is a restored 1879 old Portuguese mansion within the Boutique and Restaurant lined area of Fontainhas, Panjim.

The mansion looks majestic from the outside with framed arched windows, ornate balconies and stucco mouldings. The inside is breathtaking with high ceilings, little niches that add character and the flooring is a combination of the old Portuguese tiles, the original timber flooring and Bharat tiles heritage collection.
