BH and I planned this trip about 6 months back. We wanted to use our expiring\u00a0 Krisflyer miles and also travel to somewhere relaxing. We decided on Bali! Since we had the miles, BH suggested that we should fly Business class. Yes, we still need to pay SG$180 per person ( for taxes and etc) but it’s a once in a lifetime experience! And so… we went for it.. and it was the BEST flight ever!<\/p>\n
Business class passengers have access to the SilverKris Lounge. Basically, it’s a rest area with shower rooms, wi-fi and a generous Buffet spread !! I was extremely happy to eat chwee kuay\u00a0<\/span> and sip TWG while waiting for boarding time! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n of course, the flight was extra comfy.. we get to read magazines and have our baggage tagged as ‘PRIORITY’ – no long waits for luggage!!<\/p>\n Oh… and for SQ First\/Business class flight from SIN to other destinations, you have the option to ‘Book the Cook’ <\/a> You get a special gourmet meal! we had Lobster brunch!!!! so extravagant!<\/p>\n 1 week before our flight, we also called the SQ ticketing office and told them we are celebrating our anniversary!!! we got a nice cake on the plane together with champagne!!! wah!! super impressed with the service!! seriously the BEST!! By the way, we were so full from the food so the SQ crew packed our cake for us to enjoy in Bali! \ud83d\ude42 Love the thoughtful service!<\/p>\n The flight was just too short \ud83d\ude41 We arrived in Bali in about 2h 30mins time!!<\/p>\n At Bali airport, we took a cab to Villa Uma Sapna <\/a><\/p>\n Beautiful villa!!! We had welcome drinks and fruits, chilled out a little..jumped into the pool, washed up and went sightseeing shortly!<\/p>\n We took a cab to Potato Head Beach Club – a nice place to sit down and chillax \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n The following day, BH arranged for a driver (US$50) from Bali Bliss Tour<\/a><\/p>\n The driver did have a planned itinerary. He wanted to bring us to watch some Bali dance and shop at Craft village, we are not interested so we declined politely. The driver was cool with it. In the end, he drove us to drink Luwak Coffee.\u00a0 BH and I love coffee, we felt that the regular Bali coffee was watered down – Luwak coffee is very strong and bold BUT EXPENSIVE!<\/p>\n Then he drove us to see Ubud rice fields – it was nice but not as huge as I thought it will be. We also walked around in Ubud downtown area. I bought 2 bottles of gourmet jam from KOU which tasted really good! haha… yes, of all things, jam was the only thing we bought in Bali<\/p>\n Lunch was buffet at a restaurant with the view of the Volcano ( not sure the name) This is the ONLY decent pic I have of this place because it started pouring during our meal and the volcano disappeared behind the clouds<\/p>\n Traffic is quite bad in Bali. The scooters are crazy! so scary to drive!!! By the time we arrived back in Seminyak, it was almost dinner time!<\/p>\n BH and I went to Breeze at The Samaya <\/a>for dinner. Super romantic place!! The view was beautiful! Gosh… very nice!! I don’t wanna leave!!! Food was on the high cost side but we decided to indulge – so happy to spend such a wonderful evening with my dearest!<\/p>\n After dinner, I arranged for Spa Bali <\/a>to pick us. I did a Body Scrub while BH did hot stone massage. It was only about US$15 for each service!!! Very affordable!!! I love it so much that I booked another session with them on the next day ( before we leave Bali)<\/p>\n On the last day, BH and I explored the Villa’s art gallery. Art pieces are very nice, wish we could bring them home! haha..<\/p>\n Then we had lunch at The Bistrot <\/a>Food was alright. We dined here because I love the ambiance \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n After lunch, it’s Spa time!!!! This time BH and I did facial. Then I had manicure and hair treatment! Sooooo relaxing.. and much cheaper than SG!!! Big love!!!<\/p>\n We still had time (& money) after the Spa, we decided to go to Sardine <\/a>just to chill out Just for us to remember, we only changed SG$400 and did not use credit cards for our meals\/spa. It was enough!!<\/p>\n Weird enough, we had to pay exit tax of\u00a0 150,000 rupiah when we depart Bali – I thought it was included in the airfare?! In any case, we paid part of it by USD because we didn’t have enough rupiah already \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n Anyhow, 3 days 2 night at Bali was just tooo short!!!! Would love to go back again!!!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42 Thank you BH for such an amazing, pampering holiday!!!!<\/p>\n![\"1\"](\"http:\/\/seattletimes.6eptember.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/1.jpg\")
