BALI
Jimbaran Puri Bali

Set on the famed soft white sand of Jimbaran Beach, the individual cottages, each with a garden or beach front view, are scattered amongst a tropical garden on the fringes of the ocean. Entrance to this beach side paradise is across a wooden bridge to the reception area, bordered by a vast lotus lagoon.

Each cottage is a cool oasis of timber and marble, with private stone-walled courtyard and traditional alang-alang thatched roof - affording a taste of real outdoor living in true Balinese style. All have king sized beds, sunken baths and a separate outdoor shower, satellite television, mini bar and safe.

The Tunjung Café and Nelayan Restaurants serve authentic Indonesian cuisine, grilled seafood and fresh salads. The Puri Bar offers a wide range of refreshments from beers to exotic cocktails by the pool.

Other facilities include a luxurious free form swimming pool, a gift shop, and a well stocked library. The tour desk will be pleased to arrange visits around the island, or trekking, cycling, golf, sailing and diving outings.

BALI
Ubud Hanging Gardens

In the highlands of central Bali is Ubud, a vibrant centre of culture and arts, and a contrast to the tropical delights of the warmer coastal area. Surrounded by ancient trees and gravity-defying terraced gardens, the unique haven of Ubud Hanging Gardens is to be found. Perched adjacent to steep rice terraces, with views across to a temple on the opposite hill is this stunning resort.

Each of the deluxe Villas is constructed in contemporary Balinese style, with thatched roofs, its own infinity plunge pool and adjoining Bale. Bathrooms are large with both indoor and outdoor facilities, all interconnected by burnished teak decking. Satellite TV, mini bar and personal safe are provided in each.

Spa Villas set close by the Ayung river share the beauty of the view and the sounds of nature while guests indulge in exotic spa treatments.

Access is easy, despite the hillside location with a private funicular to and from the Villas, Spa centre, restaurants and bars.

Trekking, rafting and bird walks are just a few of the invigorating activities available for nature lovers.
