There was myself (29) partner (37) son (6) my sister her husband and 3 children aged (6,9 and 13) this trip. Flew with Indojet/Ozjet and they are really good. Decent food, on time and nice hostess. Stayed at Bumi Ayu Sanur and found this hotel very nice. Just a short 15 min walk to the sindhu beach, great staff, aircon, great pool, cheap food. The free shuttle to the beach didn't really happen as we could never find the driver but overall we would definitly stay here again. Went to all the usual spots. Our favourite was the Bali Zoo where we played with 2 month old lion cubs, couscous and many more beautiful animals. Donated a bit to this great place. Also had great fun at watersports dowm at the front of the Hyatt Sanur. One funny story was we didn't organise transport home from Waterbom on the 3rd day in Bali. Outside we managed to get transport back to Sanur from a lovely man for 60000 rp. He then showed us brochures in the car of some sightseeing. We told him we already knew where we wanted to go.This included the Elephant Park, Ubud, Celuk, Safari Park, Zoo etc. He then told us he would do all these days for free!! Apparently some companies have a deal with the parks and offer free transport and just get a commission from the park. We didn't buy anything at anywhere he took us and all he asked for was 50000rp one of the full days when he ran low on fuel. He took us out for approx 4 days!! He was lovely however his english is not so good, but who cares. My son had a tattoo on the beach even though when he got one in August it came up in a few small blisters. Well never again!!! he blistered all over and his skin has burns all over. Now on antibiotics and cream and will probably scar. Silly mum for letting him get another one. All in all had a great holiday as always. Will continue later. If anyone has any questions feel free to ask...Thanks Brooke
