OYO Home Green View: Beas's BEST Apartments? (Jaw-Dropping Views!)
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're about to dive headfirst into the supposed "jaw-dropping views" and all the nitty-gritty of OYO Home Green View: Beas's BEST Apartments? (Manali. Seriously. Let's be real). This isn't your stuffy travel blog, it's just me, spilling the tea (and hopefully not the coffee) about my… experience.
The Hype vs. the Reality: The Beas River Beckons (Maybe.)
So, "jaw-dropping views," huh? Right. Look, I've seen some vistas in my day, and while the Beas River is pretty, let's not go crowning this place with anything requiring a mortgage-sized adjective. The views are good, better than staring at a brick wall, but maybe don't build your entire stay around them. Think of it as a nice bonus, not the main course.
Accessibility: A Mixed Bag of Stairs and Smiles (Hopefully, both!).
Okay, let's get real about accessibility. From what I gather, and you really need to double-check this, it's not looking like a wheelchair user's paradise. Elevators? Mentioned, but not exactly singing about how easy it is to get around. That's a ding for the elderly and people with limited mobility. While "Facilities for disabled guests" is on the list, I’d call before you arrive, if that is your concern.
Internet – Can You Actually Live Without It?
Okay, the internet. In this day and age, it's like oxygen. Free Wi-Fi in all rooms? Bless up. Internet access [LAN]? Okay, for those of you who are into that retro vibe. Wi-Fi in public areas, too. Good. Because let's face it, sometimes you need to check your Insta and pretend you're living your best life while you're actually wrestling with a faulty Wi-Fi signal. I did a quick search, and while it's on the list, internet access is an important one to me.
Cleanliness and "Safety": The Pandemic Edition
I’m going to be honest, after 2020, I'm obsessed with, and a bit paranoid about, cleanliness. The good news? OYO Green View seems to be taking things seriously. "Anti-viral cleaning products," "Daily disinfection in common areas," "Room sanitization"… they’re saying all the right things. And hey, "Hand sanitizer" is a given now, isn’t it? But, and this is a big but, you still have to be your own advocate. Trust your gut. If something looks less than sparkling, say something.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: Fueling the Adventure (or Naptime).
Alright, food. This is always a big one for me. "A la carte in restaurant," "Buffet in restaurant," "Asian cuisine in restaurant," "International cuisine in restaurant." Okay, that's a good start. But, I live for breakfast. "Breakfast [buffet]" and "Western breakfast" are both on the list. Crossing my fingers that the buffet isn't a sad collection of lukewarm eggs and questionable sausages. Fingers crossed for some actual coffee, too, not that brown-colored water that some places try to pass off. Now, a Poolside Bar? Oh, yes!
Services and Conveniences: The Little Things That Matter
The little things make a difference, don't they? "Concierge"? Nice. "Cash withdrawal"? Useful. "Laundry service"? A lifesaver. "Daily housekeeping"? Thank the heavens! "Elevator"? Again, important for people that aren't as able as some! These are the things that make a stay comfortable.
For the Kids: Keeping the Little People Happy
"Babysitting service"? Okay, good. "Family/child friendly"? Also good. "Kids meal"? That’s thoughtful. Traveling with kids can be a whole different level of chaos, so any support is appreciated!
Things to Do, Ways to Relax: Spa Day or River Rafting? The Choice is Yours!
Here’s a list that really interests me. "Massage," "Spa," "Sauna," "Swimming pool." Yes, please! This is what a vacation is all about! I'm picturing myself, wrapped in a fluffy robe, utterly relaxed. Now, let's not forget the outdoor adventures. I saw a "Pool with view" I can't get enough of. Do what you can! Embrace the area, whatever works for you!
Available in All Rooms: The Comforts of Home (or a Decent Hotel Room)
This is the bread and butter of your space. "Air conditioning," "Alarm clock," "Bathrobes". Great. All of them make for a more relaxing vacation. "Free bottled water," "Coffee/tea maker." YES! "Internet access – wireless" … did I mention I'm a sucker for wireless internet? "Non-smoking" – excellent! I like that!
My Honest, Messy, "Let’s-Be-Realistic" Review (with a little rant)
Okay, here's the deal. OYO Home Green View: Beas's BEST Apartments? (Jaw-Dropping Views!) is… probably not going to be the most awe-inspiring hotel of your life. But, and this is the key, it has potential. It seems to offer a decent array of amenities, enough to keep you comfy and (hopefully) happy.
My Specific Experience (and why it might not be yours) - let's say… the coffee
Okay, so I'm a coffee snob. I'm that person. The one who judges you based on the first sip. And the "coffee/tea maker" in the room? Made me hopeful. So, I get there. The coffee isn't awful, but it isn't amazing. I find one of those instant coffee sachets. Okay. Now, I'm slightly annoyed. I go downstairs to the restaurant. Ordered a latte. It looked promising, but upon the first sip… it was lukewarm, weak, and I swear, it tasted of disappointment. I ended up going back to my room and getting the instant. I hate the instant, but honestly… it tasted better.
The Ultimate Verdict: Is it Worth It?
Look, I haven't actually stayed there (yet), so this is all conjecture based on the list. But based on that information, with a bit of research beforehand and a dash of realistic expectations, you could have a pretty good experience!

Escape to Paradise: Your Await at A Villa de Mer, Port Alfred!Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because this isn't your grandma's itinerary. This is the raw, unedited, probably slightly neurotic account of my "relaxing" trip to OYO Home Green View Apartments Beas, India. Prepare for the emotional rollercoaster that is me on vacay.
Day 1: Arrival & "Zen" - HAH!
- 14:00 (ish): Land in Delhi. Ugh, Delhi. Let's just say the airport smelled like a combination of exhaust fumes and existential dread. The whole ordeal was… intense. The flight was delayed, naturally. I swear, I aged five years just waiting for my luggage. I nearly lost it when I realized my e-reader was dead. Seriously, how am I supposed to survive a long journey without my escapist novels?
- 15:30 - 17:00: The DRIVE. God, the drive to Beas. First, the driver was a delightful chatterbox named Rajesh who blasted Bollywood music the entire time. I attempted to decipher his Hindi-English blend. Mostly, it was just polite nods and forced smiles. Then it hit me - the scenery! I spent the rest of the ride glued to the window, alternating between awestruck and utterly terrified by the driving style.
- 17:00: Finally, the OYO Home! Green View Apartments, they call it. The "Green View" part is accurate. The view is actually stunning - the Himalayas are absolutely majestic. The apartment… well, it's "homey." Let's say the decor is… eclectic. There's a certain charm to the slightly mismatched furniture, like my expectations for the entire trip.
- 18:00: "Zen Time." I had grand plans! Yoga on the balcony, watch the sunset, and reach nirvana. Reality check: I can barely touch my toes. The sunset was beautiful, though. I attempted a sun salutation, ended up looking like a beached whale, and promptly gave up. I ended up just sitting, watching the colors bleed across the mountains, feeling… peaceful-ish.
- 19:30: Dinner at a local dhaba. The food! Oh, the food. Spicy, flavorful, and potentially hazardous to my digestive system. I ordered some paneer something-or-other and devoured it like a starving person, forgetting all about my carefully crafted "healthy eating" plan. Regrets? Zero. The chai was also life-changing. I had three cups.
- 21:00: Crash in bed. Exhausted. Jet lag is a beast. But tomorrow… tomorrow is the day of rafting. The anticipation is making me nervous. Is this even smart? I never rafted before.
Day 2: Rafting & Existential Dread in Cold Water
- 07:00: Wake up feeling utterly drained. The view from the balcony, while beautiful, just seemed to amplify the nagging feeling that I was utterly unprepared for life.
- 08:00: Breakfast - I ordered a plate of parathas and coffee. I figured, "carbs for the win" before facing the Beas river!
- 09:00: The Rafting Adventure! The instructor was a grinning daredevil. He’d call himself "Captain Cool," though now he's just Captain terrifying. We got into the river, and suddenly, I was yelling at the top of my lungs. Turns out, "river rafting" is a euphemism for "being repeatedly slammed into freezing water while trying to avoid drowning."
- 1st Bump: Before our feet even hit the water, the river just looked menacing, like nature suddenly deciding to throw a temper tantrum. I'm not particularly fond of temper tantrums myself. When the boat tipped, I was convinced I was going to die.
- 2nd Bump: The adrenaline rush was something else, however. After I stopped screaming and started paddling, I had to admit it.. it was awesome. Maybe I am a tiny bit of an adventure seeker, after all.
- 3rd Bump: We hit a rapid. I just remember a wall of water and the distinct impression of the river trying to swallow me whole.
- 12:00: After our adrenaline-pumping adventure, we went back to the apartment. I had never felt so alive, and so exhausted, at the same time.
- 13:00: Lunch! I wanted something warm and relaxing after getting soaked. The restaurant offered some of the best food. It was heavenly.
- 15:00: Spent the afternoon on the balcony, desperately trying to dry my clothes. The Himalayas felt close enough to touch, and I spent the whole afternoon in a daze, watching the clouds play hide-and-seek with the peaks. This view has seriously been worth the price of admission.
- 18:00: Dinner at the apartment. I cooked some noodles. I then spent an hour just staring at the window, because I had nothing else to do, and I realized that sometimes, that's okay.
Day 3: Temples, Trekking, and That Darned Monkey
- 08:00: Temple Visit. I swear, the aroma of incense is something else. It was chaotic and beautiful, a testament to the power of faith… and the ability of humans to squeeze themselves into impossibly small spaces. The details! Oh, my god, the details. I felt like a tiny ant in a vast, bewildering, and wonderful world.
- 11:00: Trekking! We tried to trek. The hills are steep, the air is thin, and my lungs are clearly not cut out for this. But then I see the hills, the trees, and the vastness of the place and it all seems worth it.
- 13:00: The monkey. This is important: A monkey. A sneaky, banana-loving, mischievous monkey stole my sandwich. I am still traumatized. I swear, he had those little beady eyes. I tried to chase him, but he was gone in a flash. Lunch: Abandoned. Dignity: Slightly bruised.
- 16:00: Back at the apartment. I felt a deep sense of exhaustion and satisfaction. I also felt a little lonely. I sat on the balcony drinking tea and journaling.
- 19:00: Dinner and more Chai. I talked to Rajesh, our driver. I began to understand how the simplest of conversations can be the most profound.
Day 4: The Slow Creep of Contentment & Departure
- 09:00: Last sunrise. The sun rising. I did not want to leave. I almost extended the trip a bit. But I wanted to go home to my bed, my coffee, my favorite things.
- 10:00: Packing! I packed, but I still felt like I wasn't ready to leave.
- 11:00: Saying goodbye to the apartment. I felt a strange pang of sadness as I packed up, that this was the last time I would see the view.
- 12:00: Drive back to Delhi. Rajesh's Bollywood playlist was somehow less annoying this time.
- 14:00: Airport. The airport. Waiting. The world had just become normal.
- 18:00: Home. I had my own bed. And I knew that I would never be the same again.
Final Thoughts (Or, The Ramblings of a Post-Vacation Mess):
This trip wasn't perfect. There were moments of utter chaos, moments of profound beauty, and a monkey that stole my sandwich. But that, I realize, is the entire point. Vacations aren't supposed to be pristine. They're supposed to be messy, and unpredictable, and filled with moments that make you laugh, cry, and question your entire existence. The OYO Home was perfectly imperfect. And me? Well, I'm still processing the whole experience. But one thing's for sure: I'm already dreaming about going back. Maybe next time, I'll bring extra bananas. And a bigger stick. And maybe, just maybe, I'll actually learn to do some yoga.
Shore Residences Manila: PH's Most Luxurious Oceanfront Paradise?So, what *exactly* are we talking about here? Like, what's the *point* of all this?
Ugh, existential dread already? Okay, okay. Think of this as a FAQ about... well, *everything* I've been through lately. It's a grab bag, a hodgepodge, a collection of questions I get asked (or secretly dread being asked) about my life, my thoughts, the world… you know, the usual. It's a bunch of stuff that I feel like I’m supposed to know, but I'm pretty sure I'm just winging it like everyone else. We can talk about relationships, work, the best kind of pizza (duh, it's pepperoni), what I think of the current state of the world, and probably way too much about my cat, Mr. Fluffernutter. Prepare for the feels, people. I'm not good at hiding things.
Okay, so, you mentioned Mr. Fluffernutter. Is he really that fluffy? And what's the deal with the name? Sounds…fancy.
Oh, Mr. Fluffernutter. Where do I even *begin*? He's... well, he *was* a stray, picked him up at the shelter. (I’m an incredibly original person, I know.) And yes, he's incredibly fluffy. Imagine a cloud, a miniature, possibly judgmental cloud with emerald green eyes. The name? Pure, unadulterated silliness. I was eating a PB&J with Marshmallow Fluff one day (don't judge, it happened) and the name popped into my head. He’s earned it, I suppose. He *acts* like a pampered aristocrat. Demands salmon. Makes judgmental noises at the TV. The fluff, honestly, is a bit much, I do sometimes worry he’s going to spontaneously combust. I love him *so much* It’s ridiculous. More ridiculous, frankly, than any of the stupid dates I’ve been on.
Any advice for someone just… feeling lost? You know, the whole 'life' thing?
Oh, honey, join the club. I'm practically the president of the "Lost and Confused" society. My advice? Buckle up, because it’s a bumpy ride. Take it a day at a time. Or even a minute at a time, if that's all you can manage. Embrace the mess. Seriously. Life *is* messy. It’s imperfect, awkward, and often utterly ridiculous. It’s okay to not have all the answers. In fact, it’s perfectly normal. I spent my entire twenties panicking about what my life *should* be. Now, in my slightly more seasoned state, I realize there's no "should." Just... *is*. And sometimes, "is" is delicious pizza and a good book. Other times, it's tears and a pint of ice cream. Both are perfectly acceptable. Don’t be afraid to say "no" to things that drain you. And for the love of all that is holy, find something that makes you laugh until your sides ache. It’s the best medicine. *And* get a good therapist. I'm serious.
What’s the most embarrassing thing that’s ever happened to you? Spill the tea!
Ugh, why do you insist on digging up painful memories? Okay, fine. This one time? It happened last *week*. I was at a party, trying to impress this... *guy*. (Don't ask. I'm done with the dating scene for now.) I was being *way* too loud, probably drunk on cheap prosecco, and decided to demonstrate my amazing knowledge of obscure 80s bands. I tripped. On a rug. In front of *everyone*. I landed… hard. My attempt at a graceful recovery? Failed spectacularly. I ended up flailing on the floor like a dying fish, spilling wine everywhere. Then, to add insult to injury, my skirt ripped. I swear, the universe has a sick sense of humor. It turns out the guy, like, *enjoyed it*! He actually thought it was funny. But I'll continue to be embarrassed about that mortifying episode for like, the rest of my life. But hey, this is about being truthful, right? At least now I know the exact moment my dating game peaked, and promptly fell apart. (Hint: it’s not at that party!)
What about work? Are you happy with your job, and if not, what do you *want* to do?
Work? That’s a loaded question. I mean, it pays the bills, which is a huge bonus. But happy? Sometimes. Mostly, it's…fine. I feel like I'm forever waiting for the "real" job to come along: the one that lights a fire under my… well, you get the idea. Ideally? I’d love to write. I have all these stories floating around in my head, some of them good, some of them…well, let's just say they need a lot of editing. But fear is a powerful thing, ya know? The fear of failure, the fear of not being good enough, it’s paralyzing. And then there's the fear of not getting paid and slowly starving. So, I guess I'm stuck between the "safe" option and the thing that might actually make me happy. Ugh, adulting is so much fun, right? Anyway, maybe one day, I'll find the courage to jump. Or at least, take a very small, very tentative step. I'll keep you updated!
What's something you're *genuinely* passionate about?
Okay, this is a good one. Besides Mr. Fluffernutter, of course. I'm truly passionate about… well, about *feeling*. Fully, completely feeling. The good, the bad, the ugly. I hate that we're bombarded with messages telling us to always be happy, to always be positive. It’s exhausting! Joy is amazing, but so is sadness. Anger can be a powerful motivator. Feeling all the emotions is what makes us human. I can’t stand the fake smiles and the pretending. I think embracing your actual, messy, complicated feelings is incredibly important. And, (ahem) the perfect pepperoni pizza-- it's a strong runner-up!
What do you struggle with the most right now?
*heavy sigh* Okay, real talk time. I struggle with the *same* things everyone else does, only perhaps with more dramatics. Procrastination is a biggie. I can literally feel my to-do list breathing down my neck. Self-doubt? Oh, that's my constant companion. And… loneliness. It hits me in waves. Some days, I'm surrounded by people and feel utterly alone. It's that feeling of not quite belonging, of being on the outside looking in. Social media, andTop Hotel Search
