What Riviera Constructions Private Limited does

Riviera Constructions Private Limited is a Goa-based boutique luxury real estate developer founded in 2004 by brothers Agnelo and Francisco De Braganca. The company designs, develops, and sells off-plan Portuguese colonial-inspired villas and apartments across five North Goa villages — Arpora, Siolim, Anjuna, Revora, and Salvador do Mundo — targeting high-net-worth individuals seeking holiday homes and retirement properties. Its portfolio includes seven residential projects (The Arpora Village, The Lanai, The Elysian, Riviera Gardenia, Riviera Sublime, Riviera Sapphire, Riviera Greenfields) plus the upcoming 17 Brook Lane, with each project featuring signature Ajulejos ceramic tilework, sustainable building features (rainwater harvesting, solar panels, STADs wastewater recycling, sewage treatment), and premium amenities such as private pools and landscaped gardens. The business operates three integrated revenue streams: one-time residential property sales (recognized on handover) with a 100% on-time delivery record across 100+ homes, recurring property management and rental services for homeowners, and hospitality/retail operations including the DoubleTree by Hilton Goa partnership (2011), the Riviera De Goa hotel (2007), MansionHaus private members club (2021), and Riviera Galleria retail space. Riviera is privately held with no external institutional ownership, and operates with a lean core team relying on direct sales led by the founders and personalized client engagement rather than intermediary distribution channels.
