Beam me up Bali!

Thursday 28 April 2011

I woke up this morning with this uncontrollable urge to go somewhere exotic. I feel the need to be on a beach with whiter-than-rice sand, sipping a piƱa colada with sun-kissed shoulders… sound good? Enter Bali. The 18+ hours of flying has been a bit of a deterrent for me but for the Purist Villas, I’d brave it! I love the fact that these villas have combined traditional Balinese art, timber and trinkets with chic modern architecture. 

Here is a little excerpt about the surrounding area:

Ubud is the spiritual and artistic heart of Bali, surrounded by tropical forests and white rivers. The Purist Villas & Spa is located behind a rustic Balinese village, where you can still experience all aspects of traditional rural life. You see the villagers farm and harvest and conducting their Hindu ceremonies of daily offerings, traditional dances and music. In this rural and tropical setting you can fully appreciate the tranquil peacefulness Bali is famous for. The short walk to the centre of Ubud leads through beautiful surrounding rice paddy fields.

  2. That hotel is unreal! If you have the opportunity to go to Bali, you should definitely go! I went in November and am completely enamored. I was scared of the flight (23+ hrs from CA), but it didn't end up being as bad as I thought, and once I got there it was sooooo worth it!

    P.S. Let me know what you think of the Help when you finish?!
