Hi everyone. I posted about 2 wks ago about our dilemma with finding accomodation for a family of 5 which doesnt require interconnecting rooms (which apparently cant be guaranteed anywhere in Bali). The travel agent has got back to us with a few options - a private 2 br apartment at the Jayakarta or a family room at the Garden View. Obviously the Jayakarta is alot more expensive. My question is - do you think its worth the extra $$ (esp as we are staying 13 nights so it adds up!) We are happy with basic accomodation - are more concerned with location (within reasonable walking distance to the beach with kids) and a good hotel pool which is not too far from the room!
Also we enquired about the Melast beach Resort but have been told that with a family of 5 we'd still need 2 interconnecting rooms - I thought I remembered hearing about family rooms there??? (suitable for 5 - 2 adults and 3 kids aged 10, 8 & 6.
Opinions would be much appreciated. BTW we are going late July / August but agent says we need to decide asap as bookings to bali are up already with the tradegy elsewhere in Asia.
Cheers
