Bali

[CodeName47]

This is my 2nd visit to Bali and with good certainty I can tell it's off my list of places where I would live or even travel again.

The reason it's simply its huge size built around totally and irremediably insufficient road infrastructure. It ruins anything you may want to do further away from your accomodation or even going to/from the Airport - unless Kuta is your thing.

Today I booked my PADI certification course and wanted to see them in Sanur, from Seminyak with the rented Honda Click (locally named Vario) 125. Bad idea!

Once I made it back like two hours later, I was just too stressed to even hit to a West beach as I planned (East side beaches all basically suck big time). all I could do was to rest in my budget villa. In fairness also because I got a instant conjunctivitis from toxic domestic contact lenses solution (brand Aquas. Stay away. The girl seller had even warned me: "this only normal quality".

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not exactly a fussy Westerner car "safe driver". When 14 yrs, I suffered going to school misery on 1.5 HP mopeds in the European winter. Aged 18, already with a fucked up ankle I routinely rode my Ninja 900 to excessive speeds. With the Ninja 6R it was little safer as I took it the track at least once. Few years ago I rode my Click 110 in Thailand from Khon Kaen to Pattaya with no fuss, as well as doing Pattaya-Bangkok round trip for the day various times - these were all done WOT start to finish, which perhaps contributed to an involuntary intrusion into the tollway, and consequent ejection to the side road over a specially designated fence door. Finally, just few weeks ago I rode my new off-road 250 CC bike at 38C for some hundreds Km.

Well, nothing has bothered me like driving in Bali. And I have nothing to complain about the way the other 10 millions of scooters drive, although the young expat with its POS custom 150 CC open exhaust and board hooks gives on my balls a little. Into that category I want to put also put the typically sleeveless, insecure Westerner renter, especially with a 90 Kg white whale riding biatch. Add the appalling never ending surround of small shops, with no road going straight for more than 800 m, the probability of being cut into parts on placing a wheel into the concrete gutters 30 cm to your left and the continuous need to read into next person's, and you have it. What it must have been a very pleasant agro suburban area (just look at vibrant green of the few pockets of cultivated land left) it's now simply hell, and no presence of WhaddaFuck brand fashion $60 flip-flops shops going is to make it better.

Give me back the twisty, beach siding roads of Phuket at any time, good for enjoyable rides day and night with any engine, be that for carrying a girl few blocks out of Bangla, or trying to find if the cat's eyes on the infamous Patong Hill road are deadly for a biker as they say (they are not).

Rant over. Pussy update: Ms. R called from another number, but I'm leaning toward the wisdom of no-repeats mongering.

All you need is "Grab" and few dollars. I never seen anything that simple when it comes to punting in Indonesia.

Leads suggest banging tips.

Honestly, If one can't get laid in Indonesia (Jakarta bali), he has serious problems in his logical reasoning.

Sorry, but start working with flame. RTFF.

Leads suggest banging tips.

Best tip I can give is go to a bar, find a girl (well hopefully she's a girl) take her to your hotel and treat her nice. That's a good start.

That's the old address. It's not there anymore.

Sorry, my bad. Posting without checking.

I assumed you couldn't find it on the old location at Danau Poso from which it moved a few years ago.

[Kodja]

New location is on Google maps. Just search for it.

Jl. Danau Tandakan No. 2, Sanur, Denpasar Sel. , Kota Denpasar, Bali 80227.

That's the old address. It's not there anymore.

I was in Sanur last month and went to visit this Spa however the building was being renovated into a cafe and a workman on site told me the Spa closed several months ago but didn't know where it was now.

Can anyone advise me of it's new location if it has one please?

When I was there a year ago, one of the girls told me that they had another branch in Renon in Denpasar. Maybe that one is still open. Apparently the address there is Jalan Tukad Yeh Aya 38C Renon.

If you were looking around danao Paso then it is not located here anymore, the old monger map is out of date if using that.

I have never been here but try Body Arum Spa Bali.

Denpasar Jl. Tukad Yeh Aya No. 38 see, I got the address from the flying dandy website and there is a map on there too, hope this helps.

[OneFullNoggin]

It has closed down. The one in Renon might still be open, but this one is done.

Thanks so much.

Had a wonderful time at Bali. Booked a nice hotel near Legian, and had fun all the days. Found Sky Garden, Bounty and Paddy's are hot places to hangout. For 200 K entry skygarden is worth the visit. It had enough free lancers hanging around and you could close the deal around 500 K, and have fun with them in the bar too.

The security in the hotel offered me with multiple choices for quickie and massage, once I tipped him generously. Never wasted a night and tried out girls from Jakarta, Java and east Indonesian too. Also was able to quench my thirst of international p.

Girls by playing around with a Zimbabwean and Jamaican. Can't ask for more this time. Will come back soon.

Thanks so much for the posts in the group, which was very helpful.

Why the serviced apartment route? Could always look up in Air BnB, but you'll get the same apartments / Villas that are listed on standard bookign sites. Just back from 3 nights in Bali. Had done a lot of research looking at different places and fell onto the Dash Hotel in Seminyak. Had looked at different Villa / Apartment options but decided the Dash was a great alternative. Wasn't dissappointed. A little quirky. Was about 80 US $ per night be&be. Breakfast is basically a free for all on their menu. Bar is open 24 hours a day. Was actually some Russian girls staying there, and they certainly were dressed with one thing on their mind when they went out on Saturday night. Been there, done that and don't need to pay the prices they are probably asking.

[Pedros Needs]

Thanks Pedro. Any top tips for Seminyak or Legian?

MD Plenty of options of a varying nature. Different services and prices.

Maharani is a good option, 750 on entry full service selection of OK girls.

Zonda More expensive however similar service.

Riverview Spa 1 mill plus full service pleasant surrounds.

Flame spa in Legian, 1 HR nude massage with a body slide and happy around 650 rup.

Several others also, the first 3 FS is standard.

At the bottom end.

Saon Mawar.

Angel Spa.

350 for a quick FS average surrounds.

Try Weechat also if you have it-Beware of Lady boys.

Good Luck.
