Welcome to our programme to Bali one of Indonesia’s many hundreds of islands, lying close to the eastern tip of Java where the Indian Ocean meets the Java Sea.
Bali may be well known to some as a surfer’s paradise with the nightlife and all that goes with it. This is certainly one feature of the island but it is restricted to a fairly small geographic area and will not detract from your holiday if you are there for a quieter time. We hope to introduce you to other aspects of Bali where the combination of friendly, hospitable people, the physical beauty of the island, and a magnificently visual culture infused with spirituality will make your holiday, whether it is a honeymoon or with your family, an unforgettable experience. |

Your Holiday to Bali |
| Bali is very much a villa holiday destination and here the villas are on small luxury developments with all the facilities of a five star hotel, top quality restaurants, spas and a very high level of service including a dedicated butler. You may choose to have a villa with a private pool and there will also be communal facilities for you to enjoy. You can choose to be on the beach or inland looking out from your balcony on to the tropical forest. We are always happy to arrange for you to spend time at more than one location combining the countryside and beach options. |

| The slow pace of life and the natural beauty and hospitality of the people are just some of the ingredients that foster a spirit of relaxation. Bali is filled with inspired artists and performers. Its culture is a unique combination of spirituality, religion, tradition and art. It seems that almost every Balinese is a devoted artist, spending 'free time' applying skills and images which have been passed down from generation to generation and grasped from a very young age. Expressed through beautiful and intricate paintings, extraordinary carvings, superb weaving, and even in rice decorations that cover the myriad shrines found in public areas, in paddy fields or in homes, the island is alive with art and religious homage. |

| Merging the best elements of both Eastern and Western health and fitness techniques makes Bali a popular choice for spas. The retreats are designed in typical Balinese village style with free-standing villas and open-air pavilions fringed by palm trees. Every retreat has its own spa ingredients, with many taking advantage of their Spa's own garden - a natural pharmacy. Try the Balinese body polish, a traditional Balinese treatment using a crushed 'boreh manis' of cloves, sweet woods, nutmeg, ginger and cinnamon, to increase blood circulation and relieve aching muscles and joints. Some retreats also offer spa cuisine, Champagne, discreet butler service and a choice of treatment which includes a Balinese massage, foot and bath scrub, scalp treatment, flower splash and spiced bath |
