just came back from Bali on Sunday. Spend 5D there!! Awesome!! Things are cheap, and food is good if you know where to look. Not a lot of tourists. According to the locals, their business are slow, so they are desparate to sell their goods.

QUOTE(cocwaye @ Aug 7 2006, 12:03 AM) Did anyone take the BALI package from Air Asia ? I have doubts about what it hs shown in the website... if this include the admin fees, then there will be no more hidden cost. off cuase you have to pay for your own transport from airpot to hotel. enjoy!I selected some off peak season, and 3 stars hotel..RM1000 for a 4D3N stay inclusive flights....for two person.. Is there any other hidden cost ? If there is, how much is it?  |

QUOTE(greyshadow @ Sep 8 2006, 01:13 PM) PLanning to go over there end of this month for our 1st wedding anniversary... i saw this promotion as well, but how can a person book it on AA site? click on the link will only give u the resort info. Not listed in the package or theme packagefound out AA got quite a few cheap packages... cheapest 4D3N is RM1000++ only  Now am considering Sunari Villas and Spa Resort, they got this special Virgin Dream promo @ around RM1800 nett for 4D3N, inclusive of almost everything anyone stayed there before? any comments? I see the location is a bit far north, and quite isolated also... |

QUOTE(greyshadow @ Sep 20 2006, 04:44 PM) anyone know if the money changer there accept malaysian ringgit? yes, they do, but please read the sign properly, and see if they charge you commission. Some give very good rate, but will charge you commission. This is what I read in travel forum. On my previous trip, we changed the money in Malaysia, not much different, for RM500, maybe RM5 or RM8 more.already confirmed going there next week on 28/09 Best to change at establish place, like Kuta Twon's Matahari Mall. |

QUOTE(greyshadow @ Oct 3 2006, 01:13 PM) Harris next to HardRock meh? hey, you are right. yes, I have fren that stay in harris, so mix up. my relative staty in mecure, which is next to Hard Rock. Sorry, Neo18, wrong info.I saw it on the way from airport, it's near to the airport leh, way before the discovery mall. maybe your wifey taste is different than my wifey, my wife prefer the Bintang there  Food ar.... BBQ seafood at jimbaran beach is wonderful and damm fresh. They got the live lobster also, but didn't order as per lobster can cost up to RM180  We had our fantastic dinner on the sandy beach while enjoying the beautiful sunset  We had our anniversary dinner at the Kori's Restaurant at Gang Poppies II (Poppies Lane II), I had their giant ribs, which is damm tender and juicy, the meat basically fell from the ribs, which you won't need to use a knife to cut it. Wifey had roasted bebek (roast duck), which is soooo tender too. They also have a live band there after 8:30pm, which sings alternate version of current english hit songs, really fantastic and talented band. If you're going there, request for a Bale seating by the pond, fantastic romantic environment. www.korirestaurant.com We also tried Bubba Gumps Shrimp Company themed restaurant beside the waterbom park. Shrimps there are also very fresh and tangy, must try the Shrimper's net catch, order half a half for half garlic and half cajun. We even had it for lunch & dinner!! http://www.bubbagump.com/html/bali.html yes, i also went to jimbaran. will try the restaurant in Poppies Lane 2 next time. |

Neo18, greyshadow has given you very good answers. let me add something here. food, you can buy kacang disco. can't find it in Kuta matahari Store, but found it in Denpasar mall, and Sukawati. Also, if you goto Circle K (kind of like 7-11), you will find the camera battery is a lot cheaper than here.
what else? DVD, will our custom check/confiscate? I didn't buy any when I was there. |
