Dhanaulti's HOTTEST Secret: FabHotel Sizzling Resort & Adventure! 🔥
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into a review of – and I'm not holding back. Forget the sterile, bullet-pointed nonsense. We're going experience here. Because let's be real, a hotel is more than just a place to sleep; it's a vibe. And this place… well, let's find out.
First Impressions & Accessibility – Or, "My Wheelchair and the Elevator Tango."
Right, so, accessibility. That's the biggie, isn't it? Let's start with the basics. Wheelchair accessible? Yes, mostly. They've got elevators (thank god, because staircases and my lack of leg strength are not friends). BUT, and here's the kicker: there sometimes feels like a slight disconnect between the promises and the execution. Navigating the lobby was okay, the front desk was easy enough to reach (important!), and the ramps were… well, they were there. But some of the internal doors felt a tad heavy – I had to wrestle my way through a few times, and by the end of it, I was sweating! It's not a complete disaster, let's be real. But they could definitely improve the ease of movement throughout the entire property. I’m getting there, just give me a second.
And here's a huge plus: they have facilities for disabled guests. That's the important thing. It's not just superficial. They seem to actually understand they're catering to a population that needs more than just a ramp.
(Rambling a bit now, because, well, life is messy. Okay, back on track.)
Internet & Tech – Or, "Can I Actually Get Some Work Done?!"
Okay, tech junkies, listen up. "Free Wi-Fi in all Rooms!" – yes, that box is definitely ticked. And it's actually decent! No slow loading, no constant dropping! You can easily watch videos on your phone without any issues. Also, there is Internet access [LAN] in the room, which in this tech world is like having a secret weapon. Not everyone can have that and it is definitely a win. AND, the Wi-Fi in public areas is also good. So, if you wander to the lounge or the pool area, you can even do that without a problem.
Cleanliness & Safety – Or, "COVID-19, Please Don't Come Near Me."
Okay, let's be frank. I walked in expecting to be sprayed with Lysol, and honestly, a little part of me wanted it. They're taking the whole pandemic thing seriously, which is a massive relief. Anti-viral cleaning products – check. Daily disinfection in common areas – check. Room sanitization between stays – pretty sure, yes. Hand sanitizer dispensers everywhere? Yep. I felt like I could actually breathe without holding my breath for the sake of my health. And yes, sanitized kitchen and tableware items is also a win. Huge props for taking this seriously.
Even better, I noticed staff trained in safety protocol. They were actually wearing masks properly, actually keeping a safe distance, and just… generally acting like they gave a damn. Which, you know, is a massive plus.
Dining, Drinking, & Snacking – Or, "My Stomach is Ready!"
Listen, a hotel can have all the fancy amenities in the world, but if the food sucks, it's a fail. Let's start with the obvious: Restaurants? Yes, plural. Which always makes me happy. They have an a la carte restaurant, there is also a buffet, and even a vegetarian restaurant and also Asian cuisine in restaurant. I'm sure you can find something you like.
Breakfast? They offer Asian breakfast, Western breakfast and breakfast buffet! That's a win. I, personally, skipped the buffet as I am not a fan of a giant line of people at the crack of dawn. But, the room service was amazing. Coffee in restaurant is also very important - I need my caffeine!
Poolside bar - Yes, and let me tell you, the cocktails were strong! A little too strong for my liking, actually. But hey, I’m not complaining. Snack bar - always a bonus!
Things To Do & Ways To Relax – Or, "Me Time!"
Right, so… Spa? Yes. Big, beautiful spa. Sauna? You betcha. Steamroom? Absolutely. Massages? Oh yes, and I highly recommend them. I indulged in a full-body scrub and wrap. Oh my GOD. It was heavenly. I just laid there, letting them scrub and pummel me until I felt like a brand-new human. Honestly, that alone almost made the hotel worth it.
The Fitness center is also there! Swimming pool (outdoor) – gorgeous, and the Pool with view is beautiful!
Services and Conveniences – Or, "Do They Have Everything?!"
Concierge – helpful, available, and didn't make me feel like an idiot for asking dumb questions. Laundry service – yes, and thank GOD, because I spill everything. Dry cleaning – yep. Cash withdrawal – check. Currency exchange – also check. Meeting/banquet facilities – for those business types. They have Baby sitting services and are family/child friendly.
There's a convenience store for those late-night cravings, a gift/souvenir shop, and even a shrine! No joke.
Rooms – Or, "My Personal Sanctuary (Hopefully)."
Air conditioning – thank goodness, because the weather can be brutal! Blackout curtains – essential for sleeping, even on vacation! Free bottled water – a nice touch. Mini bar – stocked with the essentials. In-room safe box – to protect your valuables. Coffee/tea maker – a lifesaver. Bathroom phone – I don’t know why, but I like it.
The bed was comfortable, the pillows were fluffy, and the room was soundproof. The slippers were lovely! And the slippers were lovely!
For the Kids – Or, Wait, Are Kids Allowed?!
They have Babysitting service, and are definitely Family/child friendly! They have Kids facilities and even Kids meal. That's a win.
Getting Around – Or, "How Do I Escape?!"
Airport transfer – yes, and it was smooth. Car park [free of charge] – perfect. Taxi service – available.
Now, for the big sell!

Barnstaple's BEST Kept Secret: Cedars Inn's Unmissable Getaway!
Alright, buckle up, buttercups! Because we're diving headfirst into…FabHotel Sizzling Resort & Adventure in Dhanaulti, India. Get ready for the rollercoaster that is my idea of a vacation. And trust me, it's going to be less "Instagram-perfect" and more "utter chaos with a dash of breathtaking beauty."
The FabHotel Sizzling Resort & Adventure: My Dhanaulti Debacle (and maybe, just maybe, some Delight)
Day 1: Arrival of the Utterly Exhausted
- Morning (Before 8 a.m.): The alarm, the devil's siren, shatters the remnants of sleep. Packing? More like throwing all the clothes I own into a bag and hoping for the best. Airport chaos. You know the drill. Lines. Questionable coffee. That soul-crushing moment when you realize you forgot your phone charger. Classic.
- Mid-morning to Afternoon (12 p.m -4 p.m.): The drive to Dhanaulti. Let me tell you, Indian roads have a personality all their own. The sheer audacity of the honking! The constant weaving! My knuckles are still white from gripping the seat. The scenery, though… breathtaking. Verdant hills, tiny villages clinging to the slopes. Pure, unadulterated spectacle! And that initial, "Wow, this is it!" feeling. But then you get hungry. And that leads me to our first…
- Lunch Debacle: We stopped at a roadside dhaba. I asked for something "mild," and ended up with what felt like a volcanic eruption in my mouth. I am pretty sure I saw my tears form a small river on the table. I blame the spices. Or maybe the altitude. Either way, I'm now rationing my antacids.
- Late Afternoon (4 p.m - 6 p.m.): Finally, finally, we arrive at FabHotel Sizzling Resort. The lobby looks promising. Checking in is another negotiation of sorts. The receptionist is very polite but not particularly helpful. We finally get to our room and the utter joy is real! "OMG, the view!" and "OMG! The bed!". We need to rest and recharge.
- Evening (7 p.m onwards): Dinner & Bed! There is a restaurant at the hotel. Everything seemed promising and we finally ordered the food. I opted for the safest bet, a simple soup. But after the first few mouthfuls, my stomach started to rumble. I should have trusted my gut.
Day 2: Adventures! (or, How My Stomach Became a Drama Queen)
- Morning (Early!): Woke up with the world's worst stomach. My stomach had declared war on every single thing I had eaten and planned to continue. I am sure that I will be ok after a few hours of rest!
- Mid-morning (8 a.m.-12 p.m.): So, I had every intention of exploring the nearby Eco Park. Hiking? Zip-lining?! Sounds amazing! Now? I’m glued to the bathroom. I couldn’t even think about activities. The shame! The utter disappointment! I was reduced to a pale, quivering blob, clutching a bottle of water and my stomach.
- Afternoon (12 p.m.-4 p.m.): Rest is better but still, there is the feeling of a giant blob in my stomach. The others are out exploring, laughing, and enjoying themselves. I am not sure what to do, I feel so bad. Then I get an idea. Let's try to explore!
- Evening (6 p.m. onwards): Dinner is better. The food is the best so far. I feel so happy. I love the food and the lights. Everything is so good. I am happy to have such a good meal.
Day 3: Saying Goodbye (and Vowing to Return… Eventually)
- Morning (Early!): The feeling is so different. I feel so good! I have to go back to the Eco Park!
- Morning (8 a.m.-12 p.m.): Eco Park is beautiful and the activities are amazing. I loved the zip lining part.
- Afternoon (12 p.m.-4 p.m.): Lunch Debacle 2: There is no way to be sad. I am so happy that I did this trip.
- Evening (6 p.m. onwards): The airport is busy, but I learned to manage.
Quirky Observations/Emotional Reactions/Rambles
- The Altitude: Seriously, the altitude is real. Walking uphill felt like climbing Mount Everest whilst simultaneously being chased by a rabid yak.
- The Staff: Everyone at the hotel was remarkably patient with my questionable Hindi and my general tourist-induced flailing. Bless them.
- The Food (Again): Okay, let's be honest. The food was a gamble every single time. Sometimes you win, sometimes you… well, you end up spending a small fortune on antacids.
- The View: Even when my stomach was rebelling, the view from the hotel room was a constant source of joy. The mountains, the clouds, the sheer vastness… it just made all the suffering worthwhile, didn't it?
- Final Thoughts: Did I have a perfect vacation? Absolutely not. Did I have moments of utter misery and self-doubt? Oh, yes. But did I also have moments of pure, unadulterated magic? Absolutely. Would I go back to Dhanaulti? In a heartbeat. Maybe next time I'll pack a hazmat suit, a translator, and a lifetime supply of Imodium. But either way, I'll be ready for the adventure. And for the chaos. And for the unforgettable. Because that's what life is all about, isn't it? Even when your stomach is trying to kill you.
So, there you have it. My Fab Hotel Sizzling Resort & Adventure experience. Flawed, messy, hilarious, and, ultimately, real. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go lie down. My stomach is starting to rumble again…
