Clive took charge of booking this leg of our travels and really wanted to make it the traditional honeymoon. This to me conjures up images of white sandy beaches, cocktails and sun worshipping – turns out we were on the same page 🙂
After much research and note taking on various scrap bits of paper that look like rubbish but have major significance (It would appear that my husband has some things in common with the Luddites) he settled on the Tugu hotels both in Bali and Lombok.
I can report that the bed in our Bali hotel was very comfortable seeing as we spent most of our 2 days there in it! Days of not really sleeping in the run up to the wedding and 30 hours of traveling pretty much wiped us out. The first day we didn’t get up until after 2pm!
The hotel in Lombok was probably the most incredible hotel I will ever stay in. Our room and bathroom was bigger than our whole apartment in Vancouver and we had a rain shower head that was about 2ft in diameter! Oh and did I mention the 9ft wide bed?!
There were only couples staying at the hotel who were content in each other’s company so there was a pervasive hush about the place that was just perfect after such a hectic few weeks. We slept and read and slept some more then occasionally ate and drank something – it was blissful.
