What To Expect From Bali Hotels
Holidaymakers toying with the idea of getting away from it all in Bali are likely to picture warm tropical breezes, incredible ruins and picture-perfect waters. Few stop to think about the types of accommodations that might be available in this dream destination. If they do, thoughts of primitive thatched huts with few modern amenities might come to mind courtesy of Hollywood movies. Today’s Bali hotels, however, offer many surprises for those with a penchant for luxury.
Thanks to the popularity of this Indonesian archipelago, holidaymakers can expect the best of both worlds when they visit Bali. The island is home to pristine views, spectacular beaches, breathtaking sculptures and mist-covered mountains that look like they could only exist in a fairytale dream. It, however, is also home to more than its fair share of highly modern and thoroughly luxurious accommodations. In fact, Bali offers not only an array of hotels, but also a number of private villas, apartments and residences available for rental.
So, what can visitors really expect from Bali hotels? Here are a few of the features that ensure the accommodations will be as memorable as the island itself:
* A wide price range – Holidaymakers can find Bali hotels to fit just about any budget imaginable. Even on the low end of the price scale, however, visitors will find the modern conveniences they crave.
* Lush landscaping – Many hotels in Bali were created with aesthetics in mind for certain. The landscaping surrounding these hotels is designed to help them blend into the beautiful surroundings so they do not detract from them. Some destinations even boast their own highly manicured gardens to give guests a quite place to sit, relax and take in the splendour that is Bali.
* On-site restaurants – Although each hotel offers its own fare, holidaymakers can expect some great culinary treats whilst they are in Bali. The on-site fare here ranges from to-order menu setting options in private villas to larger hotels that provide cuisine not only from Indonesia, but also Europe, the Americas and Asia.
* Swimming pools – Whilst it’s almost criminal to go to Bali without visiting a beach, some holidaymakers still relish the idea of taking a dip in a freshwater pool. Many hotels in Bali see that this is possible by offering guests in ground, oversized pools.
* Access to the outside world – The point of visiting Bali is to get away from it all, but sometimes visitors cannot quite pull this off. For those who cannot, many hotels do provide Internet access, full television service and other connectors to all points beyond Bali.
* The spa treatment – Many hotels throughout Bali also offer full spas so holidaymakers can pamper themselves whilst they are away from home. Some even provide a babysitting service so parents can relax without worrying about their little ones.
Bali might be a pristine tropical destination, but it does not skimp on luxury. When holidaymakers choose this destination, they can rest assured the selection of places to say will cover every convenience they require and perhaps even more.
Looking to book holidays to Bali? Then find Bali hotel accommodation, other tourism resources and Bali island tours with Bali Dream Tours. Make online bookings for hotels and villas in Nusa Dua, Jimbaran, Tuban, Seminyak, Ubud, Kuta, Sanur and other areas of Bali by visiting Bali Hotels.

Bali villas – A home away from home
Article by Gautam Punjabi
From the moment a person starts his stay in a Bali villa, all his requirements are taken care of by the staff of the place. Things are never so easy for a person even at his own home. Home away from home is a clichéd usage but is often necessary to describe something that provides an ambience as good as one’s home. Even this may not be sufficient to describe a Bali villa, for Bali villas are not just as good as one’s home but are one step ahead of home in the way they are maintained and the way customers are taken care of.Bali has always been an enchanting island that attracted tourists but before the Bali villas that dot the place now came into existence, there was limited economy based on tourism because the amenities that the place provided was not enough to attract tourists. After the enchanting Bali villas came into existence, tourists are able to have more facilities than their own homes may have, and still have all the holiday funs that they can hope for, and also absorb nature in all its fullness. Bali villas may vary in size and features and can be of one, two, or three bedrooms. But all Bali villas will have a garden and a swimming pool, their size varying based on the size of the villa. Other facilities depending upon the size are large lounge area, as well as a spacious dining area. There will also be walk-in closets, cable television, stereo system, safety boxes, and Internet access. Customers can avail of all these facilities or only those, which they require. Every Bali villa will typically have a trademark conical roof, keeping in tradition with the conventional building style of the area.Gourmet food is another reason for tourists’ attraction to these Bali villas. Since a cook’s service is included in the charges of most of these villas, all that the residents have to do is order what they would like to have for lunch and dinner. And the cooks are adept not just at providing daily food but even at managing BBQ for small parties at the side of the pool. A Bali villa becomes like a real home in every sense.Besides home cooked food, all those who stay in a Bali villa will have access to what can be called an international menu. There are plenty of eateries around, variously with Italian, Japanese, Indonesian, Korean, or Mediterranean cuisine and all a tourist needs to do is scan the menus of these restaurants and choose what they would like to have. The hotel menus will be provided to the residents by the Bali villa staff, and the chosen foods will also be delivered by them at the villa.Since those who rent these Bali villas will be typically tourists, those who run the villas take complete care about their transportation requirements also. Many of the Bali villas pick up their customers from the airport and drop them off at the end of the stay. During their stay also they are dropped off at the beach or at a shopping street as required. For those who require extensive traveling, rented vehicles are made available upon request. As long as a person is staying at a Bali villa, he is spared even of the job of dialing for a taxi. What more comfort does a person need?
