Firstly - thanks for a great trip report. However, you've got me worried since I've booked in to the Sofitel Seminyak at the end of April wanting a nice, relaxing serene holiday! Do you think the renovations will be finished then? I know the main pool was being renovated, but thought this was due to be completed at the end of Feb. What else is being done? When i stayed there 6 years ago it was wonderful - and the beach was clean. Were there any storms to cause the beach to be so full of rubbish. I have memories of walking for miles along the beach, and really don't want to have to watch out for syringes.... Can anyone tell me whether the state of the beach is now the norm??
