"Viceroy Bali", The Best Luxury Resort to Stay in BALI, Indonesia

Who would not think of Bali when you talked about the movie "Eat, Pray and Love" by Julia Roberts? and perhaps any single woman who watched this movie may have thought of coming here, and also to find the right man (just like in the movie).

After an hour and 30 mins. approximately drive from the Bali airport, I arrived at Viceroy Bali. Viceroy Bali is located in the heart of Ubud, where the place is so tranquil, peaceful, and beautiful. Viceroy Bali , is a 5-star luxury hotel or a villa resort in Ubud that offers 25 luxury pool villas with the most magnificent view of the river and forest. Viceroy Bali has a grand entrance; Helipad is the first thing that you will see once entering their hotel. The staff is so warm and welcoming. They gave me garland, welcome drinks, and a cool towel on my arrival. 

Deluxe Terrace Villa is US$1,050.00/per night and each of their villas has wonderful views of the Lembah valley and includes:

  - Welcome drink & cool towel upon arrival
  - Daily choice of A La Carte Breakfast
  - 24hr Room Service
  - Air Conditioning
  - DVD Player and use of DVD Library
  - Espresso Coffee Machine with Illy coffee and selection of organic teas
  - 42 inch LCD TV with satellite channels
  - iPod/iPhone docking station
  - Bath & Shower
  - Swimming Pool (Heated swimming pool in Garden Villas and Terrace Villas)
  - Dining Table
  - Super King Size Beds or Twin Beds
  - Day Bed
  - Free WiFi Broadband Internet Access 
 - Free use of Jacuzzi & Steam bath at Lembah Spa (reservation is essential)
  - Free drop off and pick up shuttle service in Ubud area
  - Cardio and Resistance Gymnasium

On the second day of my stay, I woke up at 7am to see the beauty of the infinity pool and at that time, nostalgia hit me when I saw how beautiful and amazing the view it was.

 

The breakfast was amazing! A-la cart style (buffet) meaning, whatever your choices on the menu, they will amazingly cook for you, which I find very sophisticated to serve for a guest. And in the afternoon, I had an amazing 2-hr Spa treatment at Lehmbha Spa.

Lembah Spa offers spectacular views of the Petanu River Valley to complement the therapeutic body treatments offered at this fastidiously managed day spa. All body treatments were developed by a certified Swiss therapist to combine Western knowledge with traditional Balinese wellness techniques. In addition to a variety of massage and body treatments, Lembah Spa offers facials, creme hair” baths” manicure, pedicure, and reflexology. Guests are also provided complimentary use of the steam room and the sixty-eight jet therapeutic American Jacuzzi. The Lembah Spa emphasizes health and meditation together with relaxation and beauty)

At night, I had a six-course romantic candlelight dinner at Cascades Restaurant, which has the best selection of food (credit to the F&B Manager, Stephane for choosing the finest menu).

(CasCades Restaurant is acclaimed as one of the island's top dining venues, having been named as one of Indonesia’s top five restaurants by The Miele Guide 2011/2012 and Indonesia's Best Restaurant from 2007 to 2010 by American Express and Indonesia Tatler. The restaurant also received an Award of Excellence in 2007/2008 by Wine Spectator for it’s extensive wine list comprised of over 160 quality wines from around the world. Chef Jeremie Ducrot brings to the resort a significant breadth and depth of culinary experience. Since his arrival in mid 2012, CasCades Restaurant has added several authentic French dishes to the menu that are generating many accolades. Set against the stunning backdrop of the Petanu River Gorge, CasCades also offers luxurious Balinese-themed interior design, exceptional views, an extensive wine selection, and superb service.

I left Bali that my heart is in “Viceroy Bali”. Been to many places and stayed in many hotels but my stay in Viceroy Bali for 3 days 2 nights is the best so far...And, I am so recommending this luxury hotel for a couple who wants to have a romantic vacation experience or honeymooners as well for those who want to have an "Eat, Pray, and Love" experience just like me.
