My husband and I decided to start off our honeymoon in a luxury hotel. Our honeymoon was three weeks so we couldn't afford to stay at luxury hotels our entire trip. What a treat it was to stay at the Viceroy Bali for our four days!!! Let me start off by saying from the begining the hotel staff was so accomodating and helpful. When I first saw the price of the rooms I was dissapointed because it really wasn't in our budget. I thanked the hotel for all their information and was surprised when they emailed me back and told me they would offer me the room for half price since it was our honeymoon! That's not all we also got free breakfast, free cocktails every night at the bar, 40% off any spa treatment to go along with our free THREE hour couple treatment when we arrived!
From the moment we stepped foot on Balinese soil we were treated like royalty. A staff member met us as soon as we got off the plane and took care of all of our immigration paperwork, collected our bags and took us to meet our personal driver to take us to the hotel. The hotel car was extremely nice as was our driver Madi. Ask for him if you go here. He drove us anywhere we wanted to go the entire time! He is a great source for restaurant recomendations as well as places to shop.
We arrived at the hotel and were given fresh flower lays, a cold drink and an ice cold towel. A golf cart will take you to your personal villa of paradise. We stayed in the terrace villa which we loved. You can't even imagine how detailed everything is. right down to orchids in your washcloths! this hotel has the most caring and polite staff of any hotel i have ever stayed at and I have been to many around the world. They are catering to your every need before you can even ask. Everyone who works there will call you by name and will know your whole schedule while you are at the hotel. When we left for our tours the hotel always arranged for our room to be set up while we were away or if you are at dinner they turn down your bed, etc. You never need to leave a do not disturb sign or let them know you'd like your room cleaned....everything is taken care of without a second thought to you. Nothing is too great of a request for the staff. They truly love to serve their guests. The hotel is family run and the owner is constantly inquiring about his guests. We even had breakfast with him every morning. The hotel is spotless and there are only eleven villas so you really feel like you are in your own world. i can't say enough good things about the Viceroy. We stayed in the least expensive room and it was gorgeous. we had our own private pool and terrace overlooking the valley and rice terraces. The maids let us take a peak at the other rooms and they were to die for. If you can afford to stay in the Viceroy Villa you will be happy you spent the money. You honestly feel like you are on a travel show while staying at this hotel. The food is to die for, the spa has world class treatments, the staff is the best....what else could you ask for? It is that incredible. Please stay there and bring tourism back to Ubud and to Bali. What a wonderful place to spend your vacation. You will not regret this decision to stay here. We spent the rest of the week in Nusa Dua at the Nikko Bali and we really wish we had stayed at the Viceroy the entire time. The Nikko was nice but it is so big and impersonal. If you are looking for an intimate place to get away for romance this is your place. Thank you Viceroy for a wonderful start to our honeymoon!!!
