UnigoOne: Goa's Ultimate Adventure Awaits!
UnigoOne: Goa's Ultimate Adventure Awaits! - A Review That's Real (and Probably a Little Messy)
Okay, buckle up buttercup! I just got back from UnigoOne in Goa, and honestly? My brain's still sorting through the sunshine, spice, and sheer vibe overload. I can't even begin to tell you all the things this place has to offer, so let's just plunge right in, shall we? And y'know, apologies in advance if this review veers off into the weeds a little. Goa tends to have that effect.
First Impressions (and the Accessibility Stuff, Because We Gotta):
Right off the bat? UnigoOne seems to try. They've got an elevator (score!), which is crucial. They also mention "facilities for disabled guests," which is encouraging, though I didn't personally test them. Accessibility is key, people, and it's something hotels need to take seriously. There's some information about this, but I couldn't precisely tell you how accessible the pool, or restaurants might be. It's definitely something to call and clarify if you have specific needs.
The "Oh My God, Everything" Section (Things to Do, Relax, Pamper Yourself!)
Okay, here's where UnigoOne really shines. This place is a playground for your senses. Let's just dump them all out and see how it goes:
- Pool with a View: Magnificent! Seriously, picture this: you, a cocktail, and a sparkling infinity pool overlooking… well, something gorgeous. The view doesn't disappoint. I may have even spent an entire afternoon just… existing… in the pool. Pure bliss.
- Spa/Sauna/Steamroom: I'm not a spa snob (usually), but the spa was divine. Like, I swear, after a body scrub and wrap, I felt like I could float. The sauna and steamroom were proper, too – hot, steamy, and perfect for sweating out all the… ahem… excesses of a Goa trip. The pool with a view plus the spa is a double win.
- Fitness Center/Gym/Fitness: I intended to hit the gym. I really, really did. But then the pool…and the cocktails… (See above.) It looked well-equipped, though. It's there if you want to punish yourself (post-buffet, maybe?).
- Massage: Definitely get one! Seriously. After a day of exploring or just lounging, a massage is heaven.
Speaking of Lounging…
- Bars/Poolside Bar/Happy Hour: They definitely have these. And they are populated. The cocktails were well-made, the atmosphere lively, and the happy hour deals… well, let's just say they encouraged a second (and third) round.
Food, Glorious Food! (And the Kitchen Cleanliness Obsession of 2024)
Food is HUGE in Goa. UnigoOne understands this.
- Restaurants/A la carte/Buffet/Asian/International/Vegetarian: So many choices! Seriously. I had to pace myself. The buffet was a winner for breakfast (Western and Asian options!), but don't overlook the a la carte options. I will say, the vegetarian options were plentiful and delicious (praise!). You can grab something from a coffee shop or a snack bar.
- Room Service: 24/7! This is a crucial perk. Jet lag? Midnight cravings? They’ve got you covered.
- Safety First (The Kitchen is Clean!): Okay, let's talk about the paranoia of a post-pandemic world: I, like everyone else, was hyper-aware of cleanliness. UnigoOne seems to get it. They boast about anti-viral cleaning products, daily disinfection in common areas, and even individually-wrapped food options. They go the extra yard: Sanitized kitchen and tableware items, staff safety training. It gave me peace of mind, which is huge when you’re trying to relax.
The Room (aka My Cozy Goa Cave)
My room? Awesome.
- Air Conditioning: Crucial in the Goan humidity. It worked perfectly.
- Wi-Fi: Free, and it worked well. (Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! is amazing!)
- Mini Bar: Stocked. Well-stocked, actually.
- Bed: Comfy! (Important for recovering from all the fun).
- Soundproofing: I actually found this really helpful, because let me tell you, there is a lot of energy in Goa.
- Balcony/Terrace: My room didn't have one, and I was bummed. Ask for a room with one, because you’ll want to sit outside and drink coffee, or cocktails, or whatever you're into.
- Bathrooms: Clean, with everything you need (hair dryer, toiletries, the works).
Services and Conveniences (The "Making Life Easier" Section)
- Concierge: Helpful, and available. They can help arrange tours, taxis, etc.
- Laundry/Dry Cleaning: Essential. Trust me. You will need this.
- Cash Withdrawal/Currency Exchange: Convenient.
- Daily Housekeeping: The room was always spotless.
- Meeting/Banquet Facilities/Seminars: They have some, which I didn't personally use, but good to know if you're traveling for business.
- Facilities for Disabled Guests: I am reiterating this point. I was not able to test this, but it is important for this accommodation to be readily available.
For the Kidlets (And Your Inner Child)
- Babysitting: Yup. Good to know if you need it.
- Kids Meal: They've got it.
- Family/Child Friendly: Judging by the other guests, yes. Kids seemed happy.
The Messy Bits (Where I Get Real)
- The Vibe: UnigoOne has a lot of energy. If you're looking for total peace and quiet, this might not be your place. It's lively, social, and a little chaotic in the best way possible.
- Service: Generally good, but occasionally spotty. Sometimes, things took a little longer than expected. It's Goa, though. You learn to chill.
- The Overall Experience: The biggest takeaway? The sheer variety. There's so much to do, eat, and experience at UnigoOne. It's not a super-luxurious, ultra-refined experience, but it's fun, convenient, and packed with possibilities.
The Verdict: Should You Book?
YES!
- If you want a place with multiple things to do, but isn't exclusively designed for one set of activities. UnigoOne has something for everyone.
- If you want convenience. Everything is on-site, from restaurants to a spa.
- If you're okay with a lively atmosphere. (If you're not okay with it, Goa might not be for you!)
- If you want good vibes.
My recommendation? Book it. You won't regret it. But be prepared to relax, let go, and embrace the glorious mess of Goa.

Escape to Paradise: Hotel Marielena's Cuatro Ciénegas Oasis Awaits!
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're about to dive HEADFIRST into Goa. Forget those pristine Instagram feeds, this is real Goa, seen through the bleary eyes of someone who’s probably going to eat too much vindaloo and regret it. Welcome to my UnigoOne – Ace Goa Itinerary – the train wreck you secretly want to witness:
Subject: Goa, Baby! (Or: My Liver's Last Stand)
Preamble (a.k.a. Panic Before the Parade)
Right, so. Goa. Everyone raves about it. Beaches, booze, babes… and apparently, the vibe. I’m expecting to be serenaded by crashing waves and the clinking of cocktail glasses. What I'm really expecting? Cranky tourists, rogue monkeys, and a sunburn that will make me look like a boiled lobster. Also, a mild panic attack about being away from my cats. Let's roll.
Day 1: Arrival & The Beachy Beginning (Oh God, Please Let Me Find Toilet Paper)
- Morning (or: When Reality Hits): Landed in Dabolim. Airport chaos. Seriously, trying to find a taxi feels like navigating a minefield. Negotiated myself down from highway robbery to something resembling daylight robbery.
- Anecdote #1: The Taxi Driver from Hell (or, "Why Did I Learn Zero Konkani?") My taxi driver, a gentleman called Raj, spent the entire drive regaling me with stories I didn't understand, punctuated by wild gestures and a driving style best described as "aggressive weaving." Every time I tried to point out the scenic view or ask a question, he'd just speed up and shout "GOA!" in a way that suggested both utter joy and imminent death.
- Afternoon (or: The First Beach… and the First Regret): Checked into my hotel in Candolim. It’s… fine. Slightly less glamorous than the photos, a bit musty, but it has air conditioning. Priorities. Headed straight for the beach. Candolim beach. Oof. Overcrowded. Sunburn already starting to creep in. Fell asleep on a sunbed, woke up sweating, and promptly spilled my overpriced coconut water.
- Emotional Reaction: Initial beach despair. Crowds! Loud music! Men with questionable Speedos! Oh, but the sand is lovely and the water is… wait… it's really warm. Okay, I’m starting to chill out. Still, the constant drone of vendors hawking seashells makes me want to scream.
- Evening (or: Vindaloo Vengeance): Dinner at a shack. Ordered vindaloo. The waiter warned me it was hot. I scoffed. I am not a scoffer now! It was, in fact, hotter than the sun. Tears streamed down my face, my mouth felt like it was on fire, and I realized I'd completely forgotten my water. I should have listened. But it was ridiculously good.
- Quirky Observation: The stray dogs on the beach are unbelievably chill. They just wander around, accepting head scratches and judging everyone’s beachwear choices. They’re basically living my life.
Day 2: Culture Shock & Culinary Collapse (And Maybe a Boat Ride?)
- Morning (or: My Stomach vs. Yesterday’s Vindaloo): Woke up feeling… a little fragile. Blamed yesterday's vindaloo, which may or may not have been to blame. Attempted to drink enough water to rehydrate myself. I feel like I'm a walking water balloon.
- Anecdote #2: Lost in Translation (and the Spice Route): Decided to visit Old Goa. The Basilica of Bom Jesus is stunning, but the crowds are… intense. Found a tiny, dusty shop selling spices. The owner, a woman with eyes that could see into my soul and a smile that betrayed a lifetime of being a shop lady, tried to explain the benefits of various masala blends. I nodded enthusiastically even when I clearly had no idea what she was saying. I bought something that looked vaguely promising. Let's hope I don't poison myself when I'm back home!
- Afternoon (or: Boat Ride Blues): Booked a sunset cruise on the Mandovi River. Now, the brochures promised romance and breathtaking views. The reality? Crammed onto a boat with a horde of camera-toting tourists, a blaring Bollywood soundtrack, and a surprisingly mediocre sunset, it was a logistical tragedy.
- Emotional Reaction: Boat ride letdown. Was it supposed to be this crowded? I feel like I'm in a floating human can.
- Evening (or: Food Fight): After my awful boat ride, I decided to treat myself to dinner. Ate too much. Again. In a fancy restaurant. Everything was delicious. Regret is already settling in. I really need to pace myself.
- Quirky Observation: The locals dress in the most vibrant, colorful clothes. It's like a living, breathing work of art. I, on the other hand, am wearing the same slightly-stained t-shirt I’ve been wearing since I left.
Day 3: Beaches and Busts
- Morning (or: Beaching 2.0): I attempted to get it together and hit the beach again, this time trying to find a place far from the crowds. I succeeded, but I also got really sunburned.
- Anecdote #3: The Fishy Friendship: I befriended a man on the beach who was selling fishcakes. He was the most interesting man I've met yet. He had a long gray beard, and a laugh that would shake the trees. He talked about his wife, his kids, and the love of his life - his boat. He told me of the best places to find fish, which only made me more hungry, and let me try one of the fishcakes, which was incredible!
- Afternoon (or: The Bizarre Bust): I was relaxing on the beach, when I noticed a group of police officers arresting a man. I had no idea what he had done wrong, but I watched, confused, feeling bad for the man.
- Emotional Reaction: Wow, that was a lot of drama.
- Evening (or: "I Can Eat That Too?"): I headed back to my accommodation, still feeling the burn, when I realized that I had no food. A quick wander revealed loads of new restaurants and food options. I was immediately overwhelmed, and had no idea what to choose. I ended up choosing a dosa, but I still feel like I could have chosen something better.
- Quirky Observation: Every small restaurant has its own unique personality. There is no place that is more bland than another.
Day 4: Relaxation and Reflection
- Morning (or: The Art of Doing Absolutely Nothing): Slept in. Ate a very late breakfast. Spent the morning reading a book in the shade, and just allowed myself to enjoy the moment.
- Anecdote #4: The Cat Conundrum: Woke up in a bit of a panic, thinking about my cats. I started to worry about them, imagining them getting bored and sad at home without me.
- Afternoon (or: Shopping Spree(ish)): I reluctantly went shopping, which became a challenge because of the heat and the crowds. It was too much, and I retreated back to my room.
- Emotional Reaction: I am so tired of the crowds and it's time for me to go home. I'm ready to hug my cats.
- Evening (or: Packing It All In): I spent the evening packing my bags, getting ready for my impending departure.
- Quirky Observation: The feeling that I won't be back. It feels like I've lived an entire life in just a few days.
Day 5: Departure (aka: Freedom!)
- Morning (or: The Final Vindaloo Attempt?): One last, hurried, greasy breakfast. Possibly another vindaloo. (Don’t judge me). Another taxi ride.
- Anecdote: The Airport Farewell: Airport was another clusterf*ck. Checked in, got through security, then saw one of the fishcake vendors from the beach! We waved at each other, and I decided to make another, final purchase.
- Afternoon (or: Goodbye, Goa!): Boarded the plane, and collapsed in exhaustion.
- Emotional Reaction: Relief. Exhaustion. A strange twinge of… will I miss it? Maybe? Probably not.
- Quirky Observation: The feeling that I'm looking forward to being back in my normal life.
- Final Thoughts: Goa is a sensory overload. It's beautiful, chaotic, and utterly exhausting. It has made me feel things – joy, frustration, indigestion – I didn’t even know I was capable of. I'm going home changed. Also, I need a long shower and a very strong cup of coffee. And maybe a cat cuddle. Until next time, Goa… maybe.
So, What Even *Is* This Thing We're Talking About, Anyway? (And Why Are We Talking About It?)
Oof, good question. *I* ask myself that… a lot. Honestly? We're probably talking about something you're hoping helps you. Something you need to solve your problem. Something that you have no idea what to do. And you know what? I probably don't either. But hey, misery loves company, right? And hey, hopefully there's a bit of *some* kind of help here. This is my go at telling you what's in my head, and how I'm dealing with it.
Are You, Like, Qualified to Advise Me On *Anything*? (Because Honestly, I Doubt It.)
Absolutely not. Look, if you're expecting a certified professional, you're in the wrong place. In fact, I'm pretty sure my cat is more qualified to offer advice, and she mostly just judges my life choices. This is just me, stumbling around in the dark, occasionally bumping into solutions. Consider this a "friend" giving you their thoughts while simultaneously questioning their own sanity. Fair warning: I'm probably wrong half the time.
Okay, Okay, But Still... What Are We ACTUALLY Talking About? Like, Give Me a Hint!
Look, it's complicated. We're talking about *stuff* - the big *stuff*, the small *stuff*, the in-between *stuff*. We're talking about the things that keep you up at night, the things you're trying to change, and the reasons you've convinced yourself nothing will change. I'm going to be honest: sometimes a problem seems so simple. You think you know what to do. And then, you just...can't. What's the problem? You just can't change. You're stuck. This is what we're here for! Or... maybe not. Maybe we're here to get completely lost together.
How Much is This Going to Cost Me? My Therapist Already Takes All My Money.
Your hard-earned cash is safe. Absolutely nothing! Just... the price of your time, and maybe a little bit of your soul. Consider it a free therapy session, but with a guaranteed higher level of unprofessionalism. You're welcome (or, you're welcome in advance for the disaster you're wading into.)
Alright, Alright, I'm Listening... But Can We Get to the Actual Content? I'm Starting to Lose Motivation Here.
Okay, okay, I get it. I ramble. Guilty as charged. Let's try to get down to brass tacks. Let's say... you're dealing with...a job you hate. Classic, right? We've all been there. Or at least, *I* have. (Seriously, that last job was a nightmare. Remember the time I accidentally… well, let's just say the incident with the stapler and the boss's toupee is etched in my memory forever. Mortifying.) Where was I?
So, you hate your job. You want a change. NOW WHAT?
So, You're Saying Change is Hard? Groundbreaking.
Look, I'm not an expert. I may not even be a beginner. But this thing? This feeling of being *STUCK*? Ugh. It's enough to make you want to eat an entire tub of ice cream while watching reality TV and ignoring all emails. And I've done that. Repeatedly. And you know what? It doesn't help. Not one little bit.
The problem is, the *idea* of change is always sunshine and rainbows. A new life! A new *you*! But actually doing it? Facing fear? Oh, that's where the rubber meets the road and the wheels fall off the bus. It's exhausting. It's scary. And sometimes, you just want to crawl back under the covers and pretend the world doesn't exist. Believe me, I get it.
So, What Can I *Actually* Do About These Problems?
Okay, so you're at that point where you *have* to do something. You're tired of wallowing. You're ready to... well... maybe just take a *baby step*. The only thing is, you're nervous and don't know what to do. Great. Now what?
Here's what *I* have to tell myself when I'm in this situation. We want to take small steps. And the best thing to do is make a list.
* **Make a List:** Of what's wrong. What you do *not* like. Be specific. It's not just "my job sucks." It's "I hate the fluorescent lights, the passive-aggressive emails, and Karen from accounting." The more specific, the better. Don't censor yourself. Get it all out.
* **Make a List:** Of what you *do* like. What are you good at? What makes you happy? Even the small things. The perfect cup of coffee in the morning? That stupid song you can never get out of your head? Write it down.
* **Make a List:** Of what could be. If you could do anything. What would that look like? Start small. A dream. An idea. Something that sparks an excitement.
* **Make a List:** Of things you can live with. You will not like everything. But that's OK. The goal is to focus your energy.
* **Pick one thing.** Just one. And do it!
Is This Going to Be a Perpetual Downer? Because I'm Not Sure I Can Handle That Right Now.
Honestly? Probably. Maybe. Look, I'm a realist. And real life is messy. There will be days when you feel amazing, and days when you want to hide under a rock and never come out. That's… normal. I try to focus on the good stuff, but I'm not going to sugarcoat the struggles. If you're looking for constant sunshine, go find a different FAQ. But if you're okay with a little darkness, and a whole lot of honesty, then you're in the right place.
And sometimes, just sometimes, the darkness can be the funniest part. There'Escape To Inns
