Located in wing 5 on the 4 th floor,
this suite is designated as the second level of the speciality suites catagory.
(first level being the garden suite)
It looks out on the lagoon + garden and is well situated close to the elevator and to the Singaraja space and the Club Intercontinental lounge.
The Balinese suite and the garden suite are the closest to the main lobby.
Kudos to our butler, as we expressed an interest in commiting to revisit IC Bali Jimbaran again but were unsure which suite should suit us best.
Ergo, especially now that we will be travelling without kids in the future as they have begun their own life .....
Our kind butler offered to show us both Balinese and Sanctuary
Jimbaran suite today inbetween guest occupancy checkout - check in .
Apologies, the bed of the Balinese suite was being completely changed and refreshed by housekeeping.... i hope we didn't startle them ...
So let's step in,
Location of the Balinese suite,
the hotel has only 2 of this type specialty suite
This is the second smallest of the specialty suites group inventory
And interiors are renovated and fresh
Looking towards the entrance (right) and left the bedroom/bathroom
Ready for Christmas
Living room : no connecting door
Living room has balcony access and a dining table for 4
We turn around and move towards the bedroom
Walk in closet space
Oops, sorry to disturb you housekeeping team ....
Bedroom:
apologies dear housekeeping team that we startled you with our room survey ....
But good to know that a deep clean replacement is done inbetween different guest occupancy
We turn ourselves around
Looking from bedroom into living room
Note the bedroom has a desk doubling as ladies vanity area
We turn left through the walk in closet space to the bathroom
Toilet
Yay, the fancy Japanese toto washlet that does everything to keep front and back in a blissful state of cleaniness
As demue mentioned, the faucet is in the middle of the tub and one must elegantly throw their legs around it like a contoritionist
Or if you are stoutly built like me, first sit on the edge and smoothly step in
Bathtub
Fortunately enough space to manouver to step in
Double sink vanity
(Uluwatu suite has only one btw)
Turning around
Modern shower
Similair to all other specialty suites with the "press" and go button regulating system
And a look outdoors
Balcony is quite larger with 2x outdoor funiture set
Be reminded you cannot go au natural on your balcony ...,
the rightside window lattice work is needed due to firebrigade access rules.....
but then again you are the first to be rescued if you are au naturel on your balcony......
- just my silly thought -
You wouldn't guess we are staying in the rainy season but i guess one can thank El Nĩno for that .....
Complete view from the balcony
Verdict
A nice true one bedroom suite,
somewhat compact but perfectly suiting a couple.
It would be impossible to fit an extra bed in.
