As I mentioned last week in my article about our private rafting tour, we were able to check in to the Four Seasons Resort, Sayan, via river raft. It was a cool way to arrive at our second resort for the trip, and gave us some really unique views of the main building of the resort from the river and pool area. This resort gets voted as the top resort on Bali, and one of the top resorts in the…
As I mentioned in my article about Four Seasons Bali, Jimbaran Bay overview, we booked the Bali – Twice the Magic Package through Four Seasons, which allowed us to stay at both Four Seasons properties in Bali. When you book this package, you have the option to check into Four Seasons Sayan via raft – which means you get dropped off at the Ayung river, the longest river in Bali, and a captain and guide take you down the river,…
Four Seasons is known throughout the world for their incredible service, luxe rooms, and high end amenities, but did you know that they also curate special tours, that will provide you with amazing memories that will last a lifetime? Well, our first experience with a Four Seasons tour was the “Ocean to Table” tour at the Four Seasons at Jimbaran Bay. I booked this tour because it combined a fun water activity (fishing) along with a cooking class, and it…
The Four Seasons Resort at Jimbaran Bay is 100% villas. If you stay here, you will have your own private enclave with a ton of space, and the differences in price are basically the views, although there are some massive 2+ bedroom villas available as well. I actually booked a Deluxe Villa, which was a partial ocean view, and this was the nicest villa you could book before the prices took a big jump. They actually upgraded us to a…
Since we were coming to Bali, a place for relaxation, wellness, and healing, I wanted to take full advantage of all of the spa opportunities I could. The Healing Village Spa is located at the very top of the Four Seasons Jimbaran Bay, and offers a massively wide range of services. I always have a hard time choosing which service, because I really love massages, but I also love scrubs and wraps. Luckily, the spa had a combo package made…
We ate at the Sundara Restaurant at the Four Seasons Resort in Jimbaran Bay twice, mainly because the sunset views there were completely epic, but also because there are several different experiences you can have there, from a formal dinner to more a tapas or sharing menu. First, the sunsets. I mean, Bali has some of the most beautiful sunsets in the entire world, and being on Jimbaran Bay itself means you can witness this stunning spectacle almost nightly. Sundara…
We spent an incredible four nights at the Four Seasons Resort in Jimbaran Bay Bali, and this article will give you a bit of an overview of the resort. We absolutely loved it here, and I would highly recommend a visit when you are in Bali. We actually booked the Four Seasons Bali – Twice the Magic package, which was a superb deal. We got to stay in both Four Seasons resorts (Jimbaran Bay and Sayan/Ubud) As part of the…
We ate dinner at almost all of the restaurants on offer at the sweeping Nayara Resort in Costa Rica and I can say that they were all good. We only skipped Las Terrazas (though for breakfast, it was the best complimentary buffet breakfast of most resorts and hotels I’ve been to worldwide) and Mis Amores (but we did have their lunch menu by the pool several times and absolutely no complaints there!). There were a few stand-outs, though, and so…
This article is going to cover the other places around Nayara Resort to hang out. First, and most important, is the Las Terrazas restaurant at Nayara Gardens. We never ate here for dinner, but we had our complimentary breakfast here every day. The bright and airy restaurant is right next to the reception area, and is really quite huge, but the atmosphere in the morning is buzzing. Each morning, a different type of coffee is served and they list it…
Nostalgia Wine Bar at Nayara Gardens in Costa Rica was one of our favorite places to dine at the entire Nayara resort, so much so, that we ate here twice! The first time was celebrating our anniversary – we participated in the multi-course wine tasting dinner which was exquisite. The second time was enjoying some of their wines by the glass and spanish tapas menu. I had really low expectations when it came to the wine tasting dinner. Typically, I…
