This is a little bit late as we got home on the 16th but a bit of info nonetheless!
Stayed at AKK for 10 nights and overall it was extremely good. After booking through wotif i started reading some bad reviews about construction and bed bugs and all these horrible things so we didnt know what we were heading into when we arrived.
What can i say, it was b-e-a-uutiful! For the first 5 nights we stayed in an alam villa and we requested 3 single beds. the room was spacious enough for all of us with the beautiful mosquito nets. Walk into the beautifully tiled bathroom where there were double basins and then to the left a beautiful inground bath with a tile table statue thing where the water came out for the bath. the shower was on the wall. Then beyond the shower was our little garden with the open roof. It was so exotic! There was a fully glassed door to get to the bath which was kept closed the whole time so not to let the mozzies in. And the cleaners came around every day to change the repellent thing so we had no problem at all! and as for bed bugs. NO NO NO! i was fretting the first night and woke up all the time thinking they were on me but there were none to be found whatsoever. slept safe and soundly for the rest of the trip! And every night they brough us a fruit platter and cookies. we also had access to the alam room which we stocked up every arvo with food and drinks and used the free internet. we felt like celebrities!
After the first 5 nights were up we stayed in a family room. It was a bit of a downgrade from our villa but still spacious and clean. it was massive! 2 single beds and a massive king that we swapped around in every night. We didnt get our daily cookies or fruit which was a bummer, or the alam room. so no free food!
The 2 pools were beautiful. didnt use them much as we were on the beach and the beach is much more refreshing.
the grounds were also beautiful along with the 2 restuarants. pappas cafe was a hit. loved the pizza and mojitos! and the buffet brekky upstairs everyday was fabulous!
There was a bit of construction going on one day for about an hour.. but the kids at the pool made more noise so we didnt really care. The hotel to the right is huge and probably took over 3 other ones in the process. it is ridiculous. i would much rather stay in a smaller hotel. people were saying AKK wont be there much longer which will be a real shame because the developers are just taking over with the huge monstrosity hotels.
all in all was a perfect bali holiday as per usual. will stay there again and definatly reccomment it.
more to some soon about hte rest of the holiday!
thannnks : )
