Last week my husband and I booked into Padma and as it was our 30th wedding anniv we went for a swim out lagoon room. This comes with club facilities. We've had this before with a deluxe garden room. In the past it was lovely, they served breakfast from the lovely Italian restaurant withtables outside overlooking the sea. The menu was to die for and the food made to order. In the evening they served cocktails and nibbles in the lovely club room from 5 to 7. We were so disappointed when we checked in to find out the club room and Italian restaurant had burned down on 9 January. Nobody from the hotel had informed us of this. The breakfast was served in a large room off the usual breakfast room, no lovely view of the sea. Drinks in evening served in this same room. these club rooms are well over $300 a night so to have the facilities change so much and not be informed until we moved in was really unfortunate. We didn't let it spoil things for us, the swim out lagoon rooms are lovely and we celebrated with dinner at la luciola which was amazing. I'm not having a moan just wanted to warn anyone else booking a club facility room of the changes.
Still in Bali, the weather is very hot, been here since 2nd feb and I think we had 5 minutes of rain yesterday. it is so quiet in Bali just now .
Oh yes one other thing,we flew with air A. Nobody told me it was an alcohol free flight haha really missed my glass of wine.... Per booked the chicken panini .... Not a good choice! On the plus side have heard the departure lounge has some better places for coffee etc on way out.
