Bali,Ubud


Sanur - Ubud


Parigata-Alam Sari



The breakfast provided by Parigata was still humble,the 2 fruit juices ( orange and water melon) were provided;fresh and unsweetened,my favourite fried rice and in its place was fried noodles not as fantastic though,the rest of the menu remains the same

The cabfare from Parigata to Alam Sari was 200 000,this ride was 45 min and the real Bali revealed.

A friendly lady greeted us at Alam Sari,Alam Sari offered us really yummy honeymelon juice from its organic farm ;the room was beautifully decorated with beautiful welcoming decorations,little colourful tropical flowers were tastfully placed on the tables,beds, bathtube, towels, toilet rolls,no efforts spared .




' This is traditional Balinese style' ,I told myself; 'This is exactly I came to bali for.'





I took a swim in the pool,1.7 m deep on the bigger portion.The experience was great,it almost felt like it was a dip in a pond,i felt like a frog :)





The dinner served at the only restuarant, deep in the forest was surprisely reasonably priced. Even though the dish felt like it was from a can, I enjoyed the food.The staff tried their best to serve every customer,they were polite and helpful.

However, my wonderful impression of that place did not lasted long,it was simply not easy to contain the adventure me in a luxerious ulu kampong,

The love of greeness of my scouting days did not return to me,I did not feel like home in this hotel.

It must be the geek in me.





ulu : rundown,isolated from city

kampong : hut / home / village







Hotel: Alam Sari Keliki Resort and Spa
