I have completed a stay a couple of days ago and thought I should share my personal views about the resort for the benefit of many who might want to make a last-minute booking during the current Super Sale and/or MyResort promo.

First of all, picturesque views like these make it worthwhile to spend every moment of your time at the resort:









Like many Platinum members, I was very interested to check out the Executive Lounge which has a very good reputation among Accor lounges in Asia. Upon arrival at the resort, I was escorted to the lounge for check-in. The lounge manager Tari and her staff processed my check-in while I had my lounge breakfast. Breakfast spread was limited but sufficient with some set menu to choose from, cheese, pastry, yogurts etc. After the meal, I was informed that I had the choice of breakfast there or at the main restaurant given my club lounge access. Staffs were extremely courteous and some of them including Tari greeted me by my name whenever I was there, either for afternoon teas (3 to 5pm), evening happy hours (5.30 to 7.30pm) or just chilling out with my favourite sparkling water while I was people-watching. Lounge Pics:









I booked the cheapest room and was expecting a category upgrade but that didn't materialise due to an almost full occupancy as mentioned by Tari who was apologetic about it. I checked the app and verified this was indeed true. She suggested letting me change to a better room (with pool access on the ground floor I presume) when the availability open up but I thought I would miss the spectacular view and the chance to see the sunrise should I decide to proceed with the room change later.

P.S. Gentle reminder for those who wish to make booking during this busy Nov/Dec via Super Sale: DO NOT start your vacation here on a Fri or Sat. Start on a mid-weekday for a better chance of upgrade if you need it.

I also had the opportunity to go for the island famous Cut Catch Cucina weekend brunch buffet (11am to 3pm). Fantastic variety of food ranging from BBQ Seafood and Meat, oven fresh pizzas, sushi, pasta, dessert etc plus unlimited soft drinks ,cocktails, live music and singing! It is priced at 499k+ IDR with 20% discount for Accor Plus members. Expect a huge crowd during peak dining hours so book in advance to avoid disappointment. You really must try this. Guaranteed no regrets!







Selamat Datang ke Sofitel Bali Nusa Dua!
