We stayed at J-Boutique Hotel. From their website it looked chic. But it didn't look chic in reality. The rooms were actually dark and we had no view whatsoever. Alright, it wasn't so bad really. It was okay-ish.
But I wished I had researched more before going there. Our hotel was very far from the beach side. It was almost at the very end. We had to take a taxi going to the beach and back to our hotel.
Bumper to bumper traffic on a Saturday night. Note: The traffic can really get horrendous especially on a weekend night! The taxi driver dropped us off 200-300 meters away from our destination. According to him "it's too much traffic". Thus we had to walk the remaining distance to meet up our friends for dinner.We spent our mornings frolicking at the beach and soaking the sun (it was sooo hot!) as much as possible.
Kuta Beach
Our afternoons were either a nap or a massage. And then the evenings were for eating at seafood restaurants and shopping.
I did mention that Bali is not just a beach destination. It's also a shopping destination! I kid you not. All the beach attire brands are there. There's even a mall along Kuta. It's called Discovery Mall.
I was surprised to see Topshop and M&S inside. I guess I never thought shopping and beach can be had in one destination.
Oh, we also had a one day tour around Bali. It will be for another post though :)
