My family (4) and another family (5) are planning a trip to Bali and are considering staying at the Gardenia. I have read alot about the isolation of the hotel and the need to get a taxi to anywhere from there. As one of the families has five people, they would not all be able to fit in a taxi. Could anyone tell me if the mini vans (bemoes) are readily available from the Gardenia as they are around Kuta? I realise they have free shuttles running throughout the day but would obviously need to be able to access alternative transport for other destinations. Could you also tell me where abouts in Kuta the shuttle drops off and picks up?
