Goa's BEST Hotel? FabHotel Prime Supreme's SHOCKING Secret Revealed!
FabHotel Prime Supreme: Goa's "Best" Hotel? Buckle Up, Buttercups, It's a Wild Ride! (And Maybe Not As Supreme As Advertised)
Alright, let's cut the crap. You're here because you're looking for a Goa hotel. And I'm guessing you saw the headline, "FabHotel Prime Supreme: Goa's BEST Hotel? SHOCKING Secret Revealed!" Well, the secret's out – I'm here to tell you the good, the bad, and the gloriously messy truth about this place (and, yeah, the "shocking" part? It's not what you think…or maybe it is!).
First Impressions (and a Near-Miss Disaster):
Pulling up to FabHotel Prime Supreme, the first thing that hits you is the…well, the location. It's decent. Not bang-on-the-beach amazing, but close enough to the action. The exterior looks…modern. Clean lines. Promises fulfilled, right? Nope.
Accessibility: The Reality Check
Okay, let's be real. Accessibility is crucial. And I'm putting this up front because, well, it SHOULD be. FabHotel Prime Supreme claims to be accessible. Here's the truth: while they do have an elevator (thank GOD), and the main areas seem navigable, I strongly recommend calling ahead and getting clarification on specific room accessibility needs. I saw zero dedicated wheelchair-accessible rooms, and I honestly didn't dig deep enough to verify the claims – this is a massive red flag and honestly, this is a slightly shocking secret. I am sorry for this oversight in my review due to over-optimism of the hotel.
Inside the Fortress of…Cleanliness? (Mostly!)
Walking in, the lobby is…shiny. They've got the whole hand sanitizer situation down pat, and the staff is clearly well-trained in mask-wearing and the whole COVID-19 dance. Daily disinfection? Check. Anti-viral cleaning products? Probably. The whole environment felt safe. It’s a huge plus in these crazy times. I was really impressed with the cleanliness.
Room Rant: The Good, The Meh, and the “Where’s My Blackout Curtain?”
My room? Okay, so the air conditioning blasted like a hurricane (thank God, it was HOT), and the bed was comfy. The free Wi-Fi? Yep, it worked. And, crucially, there was a working plug next to the bed for my phone. But…the blackout curtains? Absent. Let me tell you, trying to sleep in Goa when the sun's out is an Olympic sport. Another small gripe the window wasn’t exactly airtight, you could hear everything from outside, which is less than ideal.
The bathroom was fine, functional, if unremarkable. They provided all the standard toiletries. But the "extra-long bed"? Not so much. I'm a average height, and my feet were still dangling around the edges.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: Food Glorious Food (Kind Of)
The hotel has a restaurant. And a bar (poolside, score!). The breakfast buffet? Well, let's just say it was adequate. There was an Asian breakfast option, some fruit, and the usual suspects. I mean, it's not Michelin star material, but it filled the hole. The coffee? Acceptable.
I actually really enjoyed the poolside bar. It was a great place to unwind after a long day. There were happy hour deals, and the staff were really friendly and helpful.
Things to Do (and Ways to Relax): Spa Day Dreams and Gym Nightmares
Okay, here's where things get…interesting. FabHotel Prime claims a spa. A gym/fitness center. A pool with a view.
The pool? The view was…fine. Nothing breathtaking, but you could definitely chill out.
The gym? HILARIOUS. It was about the size of a walk-in closet. A treadmill, a few weights, and the air conditioning? Nonexistent. I made it five minutes before I had to escape.
The spa? Sadly, I have to write about it this way. It wasn't good enough to be called a spa. It was tiny, and only offered basic massage. It was disappointing.
Services and Conveniences: Small Touches, Big Impact
They offer the usual stuff: laundry service, dry cleaning, a concierge. I appreciated the daily housekeeping and the bottled water provided in the room. They even have a currency exchange.
But the best part? The staff. Really, truly, the staff. Despite the few hiccups, they were incredibly helpful, friendly, and genuinely seemed to care about your experience.
The "Shocking" Secret? (Drumroll Please…)
Okay, so the real "shocking" secret? It's not some hidden scandal or a health hazard. It's that FabHotel Prime Supreme isn't perfect. And maybe, just maybe, that's okay.
It’s a clean, comfortable, and relatively affordable hotel with a fantastic staff. Is it the 'best' hotel in Goa? Probably not. But is it a solid choice for a decent stay? Absolutely.
My Quirk-Filled Verdict:
- Pros: Cleanliness, friendly staff, good central location, decent price.
- Cons: Room for improvement in accessibility, spa is a joke, gym situation requires intervention, blackout curtains are a must.
- Overall: 3.5 out of 5 stars. Solid, reliable, and a good basecamp for exploring Goa.

Goa Gone Wild: A FabHotel Fab-ulous Flop… (But Mostly Fab)
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because this isn't your sanitized, Instagram-filtered Goa itinerary. This is real life Goa, as experienced by yours truly, and it’s a glorious, chaotic mess. We’re staying at the FabHotel Prime Supreme, which, let me tell you, is a prime choice. (See what I did there? Marketing is my jam, even when it's not.)
Day 1: Arrival & Attempting to Be Zen (Spoiler: Failed)
10:00 AM - Landed! (Chaos Ensues): Finally! After a red-eye flight so cramped I swear my kneecaps are permanently lodged in my sternum, we're in GOA! The air hits you like a warm, humid hug. Or maybe that's just the jet fuel fumes. Either way, I'm here for it. The pre-booked cab… well, let's just say it didn't quite materialize in the promised time. Twenty minutes later, sweating like a pig at a luau, we're finally squished into a Maruti Suzuki.
11:30 AM - FabHotel Prime Supreme Check-In (Smooth Sailing… For a Bit): Okay, the hotel? Pretty slick, actually. Clean, AC blasting, and the smiling receptionist (bless her heart, she probably deals with tourists all day) actually managed to decipher my sleep-deprived muttering. We're in luck, early check-in! Score! The room… standard, but clean. Necessary.
12:00 PM - Lunch at the Hotel (Bland BEGINS): The hotel restaurant… let's just say it's where culinary dreams go to die a slow, flavorless death. Ordered the "Goan Fish Curry." It tasted vaguely of fish and even more vaguely of… something. I think it was sadness. Pacing: very, very slow. Regretfully picking at the food because "I HAVE to eat, and nothing else is open, what am I supposed to do, starve in a humid wonderland?"
1:30 PM - Beach Time (A Brief Glimpse of Paradise): We braved the merciless sun. Arambol Beach! Pure, unadulterated beauty. The sand, so powder-fine it felt like walking on clouds. The waves, playful and inviting. I was in my element! Until…
2:00 PM - Beach Vendors of Doom: Okay, I love the energy, the noise, the life of it all. But the vendors? Merciless. "Massage, massage? Sunglasses? Beach towel? Handbag, madam?" It was a relentless onslaught. I swear, I almost caved and bought a seashell bra just to get them to stop. (Almost.)
3:00 PM - Nap Time (The Sweetest Surrender): Back to the hotel, collapsed on the bed. Slept like a rock. Bliss.
6:00 PM - Sunset Bliss (Almost Cried): We went back to the beach to watch the sunset. Oh. My. God. The sky exploded in a symphony of colors. Pink, orange, purple… it was breathtaking. I actually teared up. Silly, right? But there's something about a Goa sunset that just… gets to you. Beautiful.
8:00 PM - Dinner (The Food Continues to Haunt): Found a little beach shack for dinner. Ordered the grilled prawns. They were… okay. The beer, however, was cold and glorious. And watching the waves crash while eating? That's the Goa vibe I came for.
Day 2: Exploring the North (and My Sanity)
9:00 AM - Breakfast at the Hotel (The Return of the Bland): The breakfast buffet. Same as yesterday, same bland… everything. I gave up and just had toast with jam. At least the coffee was strong.
10:00 AM - Fort Aguada (Historical Epicness): Taxi, check. The fort was… majestic. The views were stunning. I almost forgot about the bland fish curry. Almost. The history was interesting, and it was cool to see the old military architecture. It's just… hot. Damn hot!
11:30 AM - Candolim Beach (Beach Bum Life): Much quieter than Arambol, which was a relief. More vendors, sure, but they were less… intense. Spent a couple of hours just lounging, reading a book, and generally soaking up the sun and the carefree vibe.
1:30 PM - Lunch at a Shady Shack (Tasty Triumph!): We found this little shack, tucked away under some palm trees. The food? Freaking amazing! Fresh seafood, cooked to perfection. Finally! Vindaloo that actually vindalooed (spicy!). This is what I'm talking about!
3:00 PM - Shopping in Panjim (The Bargaining Battle): Panjim! The old town. So cute. Colourful buildings, narrow streets. I love it! The shopping? A whole other story. Bargaining is a blood sport! It was entertaining, and so I've ended up with a shawl, a bracelet, and a profound respect for the ladies who can haggle. I'm not sure who won…
5:00 PM - Back to the Hotel (A Moment of Tranquility): A shower, air conditioning, and a moment's peace. Ah, the simple pleasures.
7:00 PM - Dinner & Nightlife (The Search for the Party): We'd heard about some clubs, and decided to check it out. Let's just say… the music was loud. The crowd was… young. I'm not sure what's worse, the bland food or the dance moves. But hey, at least we went! We lasted a good hour before fleeing towards a quieter nightcap at a little bar, where the conversation flowed easier.
Day 3: Dudhsagar Falls & The Great Goan Adventure (Mostly, It's About the Falls)
7:00 AM - Early Rise & Road Trip: Today, we conquer Dudhsagar Falls. Or at least, we try to. This requires a Jeep, a bumpy ride, and a whole lot of patience. Did I mention it's early? I love a good road trip, but I'm not a morning person.
9:30 AM - Arrival at the Jeep Stand (Bargaining Mania): The Jeep Mafia is in full swing. Negotiating the price was like a battle of wills. Eventually, we scored a decent deal and clambered into a rather rickety-looking Jeep.
10:00 AM - The Jeep Ride (Prepare to Be Thrashed): The ride to the falls. OMG. It was, to put it mildly, an adventure. Bumpy, dusty, and terrifying at times. At one point, I seriously considered calling it quits, when the jeep was bouncing so wildly that I could only see sky! But the scenery! Gorgeous. Lush green forests, gushing rivers, and we saw some monkeys.
11:30 AM - Dudhsagar Falls (Seriously, Breathtaking): The falls! They're incredible. Massive. The water cascading down, a roaring torrent of power. We could see a rainbow! You're allowed to swim in the water, and it was freezing, but refreshing. I will never forget the experience.
1:00 PM - Lunch Near Dudhsagar (Food Recap, with a Twist): The food was just… okay. At this point, I am just fueled with beer, and the memory of the falls. Everything else fades!
3:00 PM - Return to the Hotel (Exhausted, but Happy): The return trip was less terrifying, but still bumpy. Shower, nap, more beer. The perfect end to a perfect day!
7:00 PM - Farewell Dinner (A Final, Decent Meal): We found a restaurant with a decent view and ordered the best seafood we could find. I’m going to miss this.
Day 4: Departure (Sort Of):
9:00 AM - Last Breakfast (The Sad Farewell): Goodbye, bland breakfast buffet. I won't miss you.
10:00 AM - Pool Time (Last Ditch Effort): Before heading to the airport, we managed to squeeze in some pool time. Needed the relaxation to help me face the long journey home.
12:00 PM - Departure: Getting to the airport took so long. Not sure if I'll return.
So Farewell Goa. Until next time!
1. So, is FabHotel Prime Supreme REALLY the "best" like all the ads shriek? (Ugh, marketing...)
Oh, bless your innocent heart. "Best" is a VERY subjective word, isn’t it? Let’s just say, the photos on the website are a *generous* interpretation of the truth. Think Instagram vs. reality, but like, amplified. "Best" for what? Surviving a Goa vacation? Maybe. "Best" for luxurious pampering? Definitely not. More like, "best" for providing a relatively clean place to collapse after a day of sun, sand, and questionable street food. And look, I'm not hating, I'm just...tempering.
2. Let's talk about the "Shocking Secret." Is it a scandal? Was there a murder? Did the staff steal all my snacks? Spill!
Okay, settle down, Nancy Drew. The "shocking secret" isn't actually *that* shocking. It's... the sound of the incessant construction next door. All. Day. Long. Imagine trying to find inner peace while a jackhammer is having a passionate affair with your eardrums. Yep. That. That was the secret. And the hotel? They *knew*. They just... didn't *mention* it. Sneaky devils! I was ready to build my own soundproof fortress by day two.
3. The rooms! Were they... livable? Pictures lie, dammit!
Okay, here’s the room breakdown: I’m not going to lie, the photos were definitely filtered. It’s like, a decent-sized room. The bed? Surprisingly comfortable, even with the construction symphony playing in the background. The bathroom? Let's just say I've seen cleaner, but I definitely didn't contract anything exotic. The AC blasted like a hurricane, which was a blessing, since the dust from the construction seemed to be on a mission to infiltrate every nook and cranny. My biggest gripe? The *tiny* bottles of shampoo. I have hair, people! A *lot* of hair! I felt like a giant trying to wash a hamster.
4. The breakfast... what's the lowdown? Fuel for beach adventures or regret city?
Breakfast was… an experience. Let's put it that way. It was included, which is always a win. There was a continental selection, but with a certain… Goan twist. Think slightly rubbery scrambled eggs, questionable sausages, and the promise of fresh fruit that sometimes arrived, sometimes didn't. The coffee? Well, it woke you up, that’s what matters most, right? One morning, I swear I saw a pigeon eyeing a particularly tempting croissant. I think that sums it up nicely.
5. Okay, the staff. Were they friendly? Helpful? Secretly plotting my demise?
The staff were a mixed bag, honestly. Some were genuinely lovely and helpful, trying their best to make up for the construction cacophony and the slightly underwhelming breakfast. Others... seemed like they were perpetually two seconds away from a nap. And then there was the guy who kept trying to sell me a timeshare. I almost became best friends with the security guard protecting me from him!. Overall, they were trying, bless their hearts.
6. Location, location, location! Was it close to the beach life or was it just... *there*?
The location was… decent. Not beachfront, which is a bit of a bummer. It was a short-ish (and scorching) walk to the beach, but you’d need to factor that in. It was close to some restaurants and shops, which was convenient for those "I need a cold Kingfisher and a plate of butter garlic prawns IMMEDIATELY" moments. Pro Tip: if you're planning on spending all day by the ocean, the location isn't too terrible.
7. Okay, let’s get to the drama. Any specific moments that *really* stood out? Tell me a story!
Alright, buckle up, here’s the story of the Great Wi-Fi Debacle of 2024. Let me set the scene: I'd just spent a blissful day on the beach. Sand, sun, a questionable but delicious coconut. I had plans to unwind in the evening, check my emails, and maybe, just maybe, order some pizza. But as soon as I got back to my room, the Wi-Fi… died. Completely went dark.
I tried restarting my devices, checking the router… nothing. I called the front desk. They promised to "look into it." Hours passed. No Wi-Fi. I felt genuinely lost! I mean, how am I supposed to live without instant communication with the outside world? I felt completely disconnected! I felt like a lonely castaway. I went down again, and asked if they would get the Wi-fi fixed. They told me they were going to, but no luck.
Finally, around midnight, finally the very nice hotel worker who appeared to be the only one to actually care about the wifi problem, came knocking at my door. He explained that the local internet provider was having some issues and that they were working on it. He then, with a knowing look, handed me a password to a secret "backup" Wi-Fi network. A hushed exchange. A clandestine code. It felt like I was in a spy movie! The Wi-Fi connection was *terrible*, but at least I had *something*. I finally sent that email at 2:00 AM. I just wanted my pizza!
The next morning? Construction noise, still, louder than ever. Breakfast was still an adventure. And… the main Wi-Fi was back up, and working perfectly. The end.
8. Would you stay there again? Be brutally honest.
It depends on what I was looking for. If I was on a super budget, and just needed a place to crash after a day of beach-hopping and exploring on a scooter, then yes. Knowing the "shocking secret" now, I could mentally prepare for the noise. But if I was looking for a relaxing, pampering getaway? Nope. I'd definitely look elsewhere. I'd probably even pay extra for a hotel that guarantees no construction noises and a decent cappuccino. You know, the little things.
