In my never ending search for new places to visit I came across a hotel in Ibiza that has ME written all over it...www.atzaro.com I think I need to schedule a time out here soon! Anyone care to join me? Last year I was in Indonesia and spent a few days on the island of Bali...it was totally zen-sual. Even the most basic of hotels was designed in a way that took advantage of the natural beauty of the island. I stayed at a placed in Seminyak (a very trendy area) called Casa Indigo and I would highly recommend it. It was dirt cheap (like $30/night cheap) and was an awesome value. See www.casaindigobali.com for more info. They only had 20 rooms, 10 on each side of a beautiful, very long pool. You could walk out your door and jump right in the pool. It was located very close to all the happening places like the ubercool, always happening KuDeTa. I'd go back to Bali tomorrow just to hang out on their daybeds, watch the surfers, enjoy the amazing sunsets and exhaust their drink menu. For a little armchair traveling check out their website at www.kudeta.net
I also spent a few days in the northern part of Bali and stayed at a fantastic place called Bali au Naturel, located just east of Singaraja, and as the name implies it was a clothing-optional resort. It is located in a small fishing village right on the beach and is far from any night life. This is a place to completely chill out and detox both body and mind. There are only a few bungalows but they are set on a large, lush property containing among other things two awesome swimming pools, a huge hot tub, several outdoor living areas to read, sleep, or simply do nothing, and it's only steps from a natural, rugged black sand beach. Both of these Bali properties I found by using these two highly recommended websites... www.unseenbali.org and www.balifriendlyhotels.com
