I originally stayed at the bounty hotel when I decided to go to Bali for new years eve straight after the bombing.
When the travell agent asked me where I wanted to stay I told her I had no idea but had remembered about the bounty being mentioned in the newspapers at the time.So I gave it a go!
When I got there I had a ball.
The staff were and still are brilliant.
the place is very party orintated which for a 39 yo juvenile like me is a good thing. I am definately not a stale member of the golden mouldy oldies.
It's 5 mins walk from the beach and 7 mins walk from the main drag (JL legian)
There is heaps of pubs, cafe's , shopps all within walking distance.As well as Rainbows with the legendary weedy working there.
The Bounty maybe classed as only 3 star but I reckon the standard is higher than that. Besides I'm not a 5 star tusser who who drinks tea with the little pinky finger outstretched, but I am also maybe getting a bit long in the tooth for the backpacker style accomodation.
Where will i be staying over the celebrations for my 40th??
The Bounty Hotel of course
cheers PD
ps The 24hr swimup pool bar is a major plus as there is allways something happening
