I think  it refers to Panjim as it is an island and was referred to as Nova Goa   during the Portuguese rule "1843 the city had been renamed /Nova Goa/ (Portuguese for "New Goa") when it officially replaced the city of Goa (now Old Goa <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Goa>) as the capital of Portuguese India <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portuguese_India>, though the Viceroy had already moved there in 1759."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panaji

"It is geographically an *Island* with the Mandovi River forming its northern boundary. The sub-district of Tiswadi includes the smaller *islands* of Chorão, Divar, St Estevam, Cumbarjua and Vanxim. The present capital of Goa, *Panjim*, lies on this *island*."

In those days, 'Goa' was usually the island of Goa. Maybe the Old Goa ara
today and the islands of Divar/Chorao.

So when they refer to an village outside Goa, they probably refer to a
place which could be within today's Goa or just beyond it.

Could you send me the sentence if you'd like me to dig around a bit?

Not sure what the context is... but neither Colvale (note spelling) or
Curtorim would be three days away from the island of Goa. Both would be a
few hours away, even if one walked....
