Think spa days are strictly for grown-ups? Not in Bali. From chocolate massages and fruity cream baths to mini manis and pedis, these are the best spas in Bali for kids and families. I have a confession to make. My first Bali holiday was not exactly a wellness retreat. There was considerably more vodka than […] Read more…
From holy-water purification and flower baths to jungle yoga, traditional healing and sound baths where someone hits a gong while you lie on the floor, Bali has wellness covered from the deeply spiritual to the slightly woo-woo. My first experience of Bali was anything but wellness. I was young, stupid and so thoroughly unenamoured with […] Read more…
A solo stay at Four Seasons Resort Bali at Jimbaran Bay offers a tranquil, luxurious taste of Bali, with a private pool villa, exceptional dining, restorative spa experiences and spectacular views over Jimbaran Bay. Sunsets are something Bali does particularly well. And Jimbaran Bay, a fishing village on Bali’s southwest coast, is one of the […] Read more…
Bali is beckoning again! As soon as the temperatures start to drop, my inclination to beat a hasty retreat to somewhere warm rises. And where better to escape to than beautiful Bali? It’s one of Australia’s favourite holiday destinations, and for good reason. Just six-ish hours from Sydney’s east coast and three-and-a-half-ish from Perth, this […] Read more…
Bali is one of those places that does resorts extremely well, and, of the six I’ve now stayed in, I can’t fault a single one. But, though we’d been told by several discerning friends that a stay at the Sofitel Bali Nusa Dua with kids would be the absolute best of the best, we planned […] Read more…
I have to confess it took me a while to catch the Bali with kids bug. You see, my first taste of Bali, some 25 years ago, wasn’t exactly a success, partly due to my appalling taste in first husbands and partly due to the fact that I spent the entire week drunk and/or rocking […] Read more…
Travel has proven an amazing way of introducing our children to a range of new and exciting foods. But so many travellers, especially those with kids, refuse to bypass fast food chain burgers and the limp pizza at the hotel buffet to wrap their lips around the local cuisine. Sometimes it’s due to a fear of flavour but more often its […] Read more…
Holiday Inn Baruna Bali makes a family holiday easy, with a beachfront location, enormous lagoon pool, spacious family rooms, kids’ activities, resort dining and a little spa time for Mum and Dad. It is somewhat of an understatement to say that both Raffles and Sugarpuff love the water. Whether it’s in the sea, in a […] Read more…
Sunsets are something that Bali does particularly well. And Jimbaran Beach is the place those in the know gather to enjoy them. Which is why, at sundown, we find ourselves leaving the Ayana Resort and Spa to instead sip a leisurely Bintang at bustling Jimbaran Bay with kids. At least sort of, as said kids […] Read more…
After nearly 20 years, I return to Bali with two kids, a villa the size of a small country and a determination not to buy a horse. It almost works. My first visit to Bali was nearly 20 years ago. You might say it was less than successful. You see, although I enjoyed a little […] Read more…
