Jean, I could have written that message too -- I am planning the same trip also in May and am curious about the same things! My husband and I are starting out at the Pansea In Jimbaran too, and then going to Ubud. My question about the Pansea is what the price would be negotiated on site; they quoted US$120 to me on email. I am tempted to take it, but we are travelling for 3 weeks on a budget and I'm afraid my need/desire for luxury will be too costly in the end with too many nights at lovely places like this. That is why I am eager to get the best deal -- whether that be via email or on site. Can we do better? any ideas on that?
Then in Ubud, I too have heard really excellent things about Villa Indah and for that matter, the Tjampuhan as well. However, according to the message above from John, Villa Indah is not so great. That said, if you have a look at the Cahya De Wata website, which is the hotel John suggests instead, it doesn't look too nice either. Who knows? Maybe the best thing is to just have a look on-site?
I would really appreciate if you could keep me updated on what you find out with regard to rates etc for these hotels. Would you mind? If it's okay, here's my email: smartin@goplay.com
cheers and have fun planning your holiday!
