A Unique Experience And Nostalgic Vacation in Goa


If you too grew up in the 70s or early 80s like me, fond memories of dialing phone, audio tape cassettes, classic jukebox, box TV set with antenna and that famous ‘Sholay’ style vibrant coloured scooter with sidecar must give you chills if you happen to witness them all at one place. I went Goa reluctantly, mainly because I have measured all the beaches in that 10 years of frequent visits with family, friends, cousins, colleagues and possibly everyone I could plan a vacation with and stayed in some of the best boutique hotels in north Goa. But this time, as my cousin insisted, we went to this I Love Bell Bottoms Hotel Near Sunburn Festival Goa and it happened to be the best thing to happen to me in life so far.

The hotel is designed as per the 70s and 80s style with all vintage goodies, furniture and decor. All those things I mentioned above, I actually saw and used them as long as I stayed there. Wish I could just pack them up with myself and live forever in my youth!

As far as the rooms are concerned they have well furnished, well equipped bedrooms and bathrooms with all modern facilities and amenities, plus the vintage feel I often missed in my life. I always regretted why I gave away my old red coloured dial phone and replaced it with the cordless phone with LCD, because the wonderful nostalgic conversations we had on that corded phone are simply irreplaceable. Here in this hotel, I used the vintage phone after so many years and actually felt young again.

About menu, their food is delicious and comes with a wide variety and options in the menu. They have in-room dining facility too which makes the stay even more comfortable. I’ve pledged to visit Goa every year and take every one person I ever went to Goa with again and show them how it feels if you get a chance to live in your prime years once again.

BTW, the hotel I Love Bell Bottoms is close to all the beaches for you to explore.

If you haven’t made any plans for the forthcoming New Year’s Eve, or want to spend the New Year eve in a musical way, here’s a plan for you. Sunburn festival is the largest musical festival and is ranked among 10 top festivals in the world. 

Goa is a superb destination for spending New Years Eve not just because the weather in December is awesome in Goa, but because Goa is full of excitement, happening crowd, music and fervor for one of the greatest celebrations of the year. 
There are a few vintage hotels in Goa and one of them is I Love Bell Bottoms. Designed in the 70s and 80s style, this hotel is a charming reminiscence of the 80s fever. From interiors and decor to food menu and party ideas- the hotel provides superb entertainment and rocking 70s and 80s music and a wonderful vintage feel. 
Although there are several hotels in Goa near sunburn festival venue, I Love Bell Bottoms is a superb choice because the overall feel and ambiance that the hotel provides is much more than the sunburn festival itself. You can visit the festival and enjoy the multistage music performances by the popular artists and then come back to your hotel to relax and rejuvenate. 
Hosted in Vagator, Goa, Sunburn Festival is a 4-day festival with artists from various places and genre performing live. Full on music and dance, unending food and drinks, there couldn’t be a better plan for celebrating the New Years Eve. 
Walking distance from the beach and close proximity to the bazaars and souks of Goa, I love bell bottoms is surely the perfect hotel if you’ve made up your mind on attending sunburn festival to welcome the coming year in the most musical manner.
