Hi
we stayed there in Oct 2004 and had a ball. the staff at the hotel are so friendly and helpful.
we walked up past Club Med and there is a small strip of shops there and had fun shopping there and also meeting the locals, there is a small shop near there where you can buy chips etc (we had our kids with us). at the start of nusa dua near the "gates" where all the shops are the first restuarant as you leave on the right (stupid me never got names!!!!!!) they have great food and a relaxed atmosphere. we also ate at the place next to the supermarket at the Galleria (tip - the free shuttle bus stops for lunch at 1.00 for about an hour) some of the places at the Galleria are expensive.
we had a drive - Komang - komangsw@yahoo.com - who picked us up and took us where ever at whatever time we wanted to go.
The actual spa at the hotel is amazing - I have never had so much fun. and the boys got very good prices for the jetskiis from the guys in front of club med
if you want to know more let me know
