My husband and I are going back in Feb for two weeks, this will be our third trip and we have stayed at Pelangi each time. I would not stay anywhere else. The staff are lovely, the food is great, they have a free shuttle bus twice a day into Kuta, you do have to make your way back however. It is about a 45 minute walk down the beach from Kuta to the hotel. We normally bus in then wlak home.
There are plenty of bemos out on the street at the entrance to Pelangi, just bata with them for prices into town. The hawkers on the beach in front of Pelangi are fantastic, we have had no problems with them, if we are not interested in buy just smile and say no thank you. They give a great massage on the beach half hour for about 20,000 rup about $4.00 AUS.
Pelangi also has a health spa however it would pay to check out prices when walking around down as they do vary.
TJ's is a mexican resturant in Poppies lane 2 from memory great atmosphere and fantastic food.
