Is beach a requirement? Have you considered Ubud? Completely different universe. I've been there twice last six month and I'm sure will be twice more in next six month.
Bali so far offers the best RoI for vacation, it is so diverse that you can go there back 10 times and see different things. If you really want to get the best return, stay away from big chains and get a private villa. There are so many to choose from that you will find your own unless one gets into analyses paralyses.
If you are really into beach/water/snorkeling, you should seriously look at
Nusa Lembogan
I agree. Us Aussies have a reputation. I went on a boat once from Phuket to Phi Phi Island. Someone asked how much longer until we got there and the boat driver said..."oh about 3 tinnies (cans of beer)... actually, you're all Aussies so I'd say 6 beers"
A beach is a requirement.
To others that suggested Four Seasons. I found that hotel after I posted this. I like that very much. Even the entry rooms look large and glamourous and Asian inspired rather than something that looks like it could be in Sydney.
Thanks all.
