And yes, that is indeed the airport in the distance and Bali's holy mountain and volcano "Gunung Agung"

The hotel and its Jimbaran beach front has ideal location to make AV-geek plane timelapse + the volcano background.
More important according to my sister is that she can enjoy the beach without being hassled in stereo by touts offering hairbraiding, souvenirs, massages and stuff. Big brother reports that no need to take his GF to the Maldives as the Jimbaran water is azure blue and good for some romantic walks hand in hand.
