I'm planning a trip to Bali in December. RM1000 per person inclusive of airfare and accomodation. Where is the Roxy/Quiksilver outlet? Anyway, what's shopping like over there? Mostly local stuff or is there a lot of other surf brands? Is it cheaper for surf brands there?
Sorry for so many questions. Insane shopaholic here. And also, is Mercure hotel a good place to stay?

QUOTE(stimix @ Aug 18 2007, 06:37 PM) Mercure is located few blocks away from Hard Rock Hotel and also fronting Kuta Beach & Jln Pantai Kuta...Should be OK at that location...Other than Quicksilver, another famous sufing brand is Bilabong..They are everywhere..even imitation also a lot such as Balibong!!....The factory outlet of Quicksilver, I think is located on the Nyurah Rai Bypass towards Busa Dua from Kuta...not so sure...not game to this sport In Bali the only really cheap thing are those Wood Carving, Bali Batik, Stone carving, Local T-shirts & clothings & etc, Those branded clothing such as uluwatu, YSL & etc are not cheap..unless there are megasales there....Dun bother to buy those branded stuff too...go for local Bilabong for RM5/T-shirt rather than RM50/T-shirt for ori...  ...My wife always ask me to check on Uluwatu blouse but can't afford one..How to ah 1 blouse start from US$100 & above..  Outlet shoping should be cheap right? What do you recommend doing in Bali for college students aged from 18-20? And what recommendations can you give about getting around? I know there's heaps of info in this thread, but I gave up after getting to page 16 because there was SO much information. So if anyone can give a summary, like.. in point form? Hahaha.

Yeah, apparently Bandung is amazing for shopping! But supposedly there's a Factory Outlet store with Guess and all in one of the plazas. So I gotta go check that out as well. Anyone did watersports and stuff?

i'm having an insane time trying to book a good place in bali.
so far, what's available are harris, hard rock, kuta paradiso and the vira bali.
as of now, the vira is my top choice, but there's just too many selections and too many mixed reviews. hard rock and harris don't seem to have that.. balinese feel. i don't know. correct me if i'm wrong.
help me out, guys! give me some suggestions on good places to stay, based on experience?
i'm looking at Kuta area, preferably not too expensive. hard rock is actually kind of pushing it. hahaha.
