frankie. We are 11 people going over on this Wednesday staying at the GVC for 16 days.
Your comments arrive just in the nick of time. I have been desperately searching the Forum right up to the last minute to try and get new JBR's/feedback on the GVC.
Recently there have been some worrying reports coming back from the GVC. Mostly seeming to centre on the Mezzanine rooms/Bungalows and to a lesser extent, the Family Bungalows where we will be staying. We will have 2 Family Bungalows and my brother is staying in a standard room overlooking the pool bar apparently? The negative comments mostly relate to the deteriorating condition of the GVC.
Yours is the first positive report in a while. We are expecting budget and are fairly easily pleased. For us, it's just a bonus to have a 24hr pool bar, friendly staff, a restaurant and bar out the front, and good central location. As long as the beer is cold, the pool clean, our kids well behaved, them I'm sure we'll have a blast. I knocked off work this afternoon (HOLIDAYS!!), trying extremely hard not to skip on the walk to the train station!
We are so excited and can't wait to take that very first breath of bali when we step off that plane.
Cheers again and I will post a report myself of our impressions of the GVC for anyone else planning a budget family holiday.
