Hi Whirlibird
we stayed there last June and booked through their website with no problems, sometimes replies were a little slow, maybe because of internet speeds. (you could try faxing them - Fax. + 62 361 950 555 - we found that quite quick)
The best rooms are the Tandala or Twiga suites, which are both first floor rooms with balconies overlooking the "wilderness", which is a large area with various animals roaming around. (zebras, wilderbeast, oryx, Mr Nelson the rhino etc.)
From memory, the Tandala suites are closer to reception with open views,the Twiga suites (where we stayed) are a short walk around the boardwalk, and have some trees etc breaking up the views a little, but giving good shade in the afternoon.
We bought some goodies from Bali Bakery plus some drinks with us, and had a great meal on the balcony one night.
Their Honeymoon package looks good.
If you have any more questions, feel free to contact me. I will leave my email address open.
Cheers
Rodger
