Travelling the world in luxury for less a week at a time
Who doesn’t love a burger? These simple sandwiches can be absolutely divine if done right. I like my burgers home made and a world away from fast food. We were intrigued by the signature charcoal buns and we had extremely high expectations of Black House Burgers Kuta after they were rated the number 1 of 717 restaurants in Kuta Bali on Trip Advisor after 688 reviews. Did they stack up? Read on for all the details …
We chose Bella Vista Cafe Legian for a simple meal due to the proximity to our hotel and the excellent Trip Advisor ratings. It is #2 in Legian after all! The coffee scene is big even in Bali and Bella Vista pitches to this market but also serves up more substantial plates for lunch and dinner. With a diverse menu there is something to appeal to most.

Un’s Kuta is one of our favorite restaurants in Bali. We discovered it a few years ago and loved that we had stumbled on a hidden gem where we had the dining room almost all to ourselves. Last visit was a lot different. It seems like the masses have cottoned on to our secret place and we had to wait for a table. Despite it’s new found popularity Un’s Kuta hasn’t lost any of it’s charm and the food is as amazing as ever. Read on for all the details …
We had heard good things about Sanur Bali from friends at home so we thought we would pop over for a few hours and check it out before we committed to staying there. Sanur is just a quick cab ride away from Legian and many of the water sports in my epic list of +110 things to do in Bali are in this area. Benno’s Sanur was an off the cuff lunch choice when wandering along the beach path. There are no shortage of restaurants here but most seem to offer the same type of fare. We were hungry, hot and tired and didn’t have the inclination to put much thought into it. Benno’s Sanur Bali seemed like a safe bet given there were already a few diners settled it. I hate walking into an empty restaurant don’t you? Read on for all the details …
Sheppy’s Bar & Restaurant is our favourite place for lunch when in Bali. It’s casual, friendly, very central and the food never disappoints. Did I mention they have the coldest drinks in town? That alone is worth a visit 🙂 Read on for all the details …
Shopping in Bali is a heady mix of malls and stalls. Shopping in Seminyak Bali is where high end meets tourist tack and each neighborhood has it’s own unique offerings. I’ve been to Bali many times and I admit I have spent the odd hour or two at the shopping malls in Kuta and beyond. When most people think of shopping in Bali they think of knock off T-Shirts, cheap sunglasses and fake designer bags and watches. Bali is all of that and if you stick with me, I’ll steer you through the maze of markets in Bali where tie dye, wooden penises and tacky fridge magnets abound to discover the hidden gems in the flashest of Bali boutiques.

Every girl loves a bit of pampering right? Well in Bali you are spoiled for choice but one definitely worth checking out is Cocoon Medical Spa in Legian. In fact, I love it so much, it made my epic list of 110+ amazing things to do in Bali. As the name suggests this is much more than your average day spa and offers a myriad of treatments including facials, botox, fillers, colon therapy, PRP (vampire facelift) and fractional laser.
