| Welcome to the magnificent island of Bali. This May have an enjoyable, safe holiday as we come officially into the dry season and kick off with the enjoyable annual The Yak Tennis Classic IV tournament held in collaboration with and at Canggu Club from the 12th – 19th May. Be sure to register in time if you feel like having a bit of on-court fun! More on this in the Don't Miss Chapter, as well as other vacation ideas, on the following pages.
This edition is packed with articles and good information, with the increasingly full map on our centre pages being seen as a reference around southern Bali to the major tourist areas, often noticed being pulled from bags and pockets. Also inside we have featured the following; The Haven lives up to its name nicely in busy Legian, in the heart of it all, but cool and cosy behind its minimalist suite doors, Padma Resort is a beautiful sprawling beachside property paying homage to Bali and all her charm and has kept its great reputation in tact now for decades, the recently renovated The Seminyak & Spa also keeps Balinese charm alive within its multi-million dollar new look of comfort and calm, in Petitenget the Cattleya Condotel offers spacious romantic luxury to both families and honeymooners alike, Damai means peace and this resort certainly is, as well as providing unparalleled guest service and charm, and finally, Metis has never failed to impress with its delicious French cuisine paired with Asian flavours and impressive wine cellar. Happy reading and discovery!
We hope that you will find Bali's Biggest Little Guide Book helpful as you enjoy this beautiful island this May.
From all of us at Bali Plus, we wish you a wonderful holiday.
To all visitors,
“Om Swasti-Astu”
(Balinese for ‘Welcome’)
Faithfully Bali Plus Team |
