In Reply to: hotel v"s villas posted by yanchepged on Monday, 4. June 2007 at 08:21 Bali Time:
We made the change from hotels to villas about 5 years ago. Like hotels, there are villas and villas. Some "villas" are just apartments within hotels and then there are basic villas and luxury villas. If you search for a post that Cracker made sometime late last year, he actually did some sums on the comparison between hotels and villas - it's well worth searching for and reading. However, the great difference for us is that you have much greater involvement with the staff (and hence the culture) in a villa and you will end up feeling like you belong to a family. Your children should gain enormous benefit and insight from staying in a villa. Good luck. Feel free to email me if you wish.
