Seems your reputations work to our advantage! I have just contacted the Ubud Village Hotel and mentioned this forum and both your names when enquiring about rates. Their reply says that "Mama Colleen and Miss Kerrie are our most valued friends and customers"! They then proceded to offer me a very good rate, which I have accepted. That's a another great thing about this forum. We not only find out abouyt good places to stay, but also get access to good rates. I only wish I had got on with booking earlier as it seems I have missed out on the Puri Raja for the July school holidays...
