Blue Moon Villas, Amed

Blue Moon Villas, Amed

There are cheaper places to stay in Amed – like the excellent Double One for example – but there are few better than the excellent Blue Moon Villas.

Whether it’s worth paying the extra is a purely personal decision but, if you have the money, then I say go for it – especially if you are staying here for something special like a honeymoon or wedding anniversary - or even just a dirty weekend away with your girlfriend!  :)

 What Blue Moon Villas has is that extra touch of magic which can transform a pleasant stay into a highly memorable one.

The rooms are nice and clean with really comfortable beds and crisp air conditioning (so important – and not just for a good night’s sleep! Hahaha!).

In the grounds of the villa there is not just one infinity pool but a number of them - a very nice touch. Also pretty good was the food. About the only thing below par were the rather timid massages given by the masseurs who were clearly amateurs (but then again, I live in Jakarta so I would say that!).

 Personally, I can live without such luxuries and am more than happy with the beautiful scenery, clean air and wonderful snorkeling nearby. But then again, if staying here makes the wife happy, then why not eh?!!!

20 things you should know about Indonesian girls

Image
1. Unlike Western women who can’t drive to save their lives, Indonesian women are the best drivers in the world. I know this because my woman overtakes other cars at 130kms/hr on the inside safety lane of the Jakarta-Bandung toll road while, at the same time, keying in SMS text messages. 2. Indonesian woman love shopping. Indonesian woman love shopping. Indonesian woman love shopping. 3. According to the Indonesia Bureau of Statistics, 43 percent of 18- to 34-year-old Indonesian women live with their parents. So be very very careful if she invites you back to her place or you might get much more than you bargained for. 4. Indonesian women think dark skin is bad, but they still adore Anggun. 5. Thirty-two percent of women in Jakarta now color their hair, according to Estee Lauder (who are obviously hoping they can peer-pressure the other 68 percent). 6. Jakarta women can't live without tension. Every once in a while she's gonna pick a nasty fight with you for no reason whatsoeve

The comfort zone (Jakarta hotel and spa)

Yet another Indonesia WTF moment. And this time on the net. What are these girls employed as? - “Guest relations” officers - Tour guides - Personal financial advisors - Therapists - Security consultants Well, I’d have put my house on “guest relations” officers myself, but I’d be wrong. Cos these girls are, in fact, therapists . So if you fancy a difficult afternoon with one of these girls - who will undoubtedly do her utmost to delve deeply into the furthermost recesses of your mind - then you might like to pay a visit to one of the spas owned by the Comfort Group . But why the hell they have 65 therapists on their payroll is way beyond me! Services offered include both traditional and Shiatsu Massage, refleksi (foot massage), a hot and cold water pool, sauna and steam room and a mini bar and lounge. So why not finish your tiring day with a happy ending?!!!   Also see: The 10 best plus plus spas in Jakarta Contact details for the spas managed by the Comfort Group, undoubtedly some

The 10 best plus plus spas in Jakarta

Image
UPDATE 12/10/2018: due to the large number of hits this page has been receiving of late, readers should note that two of the spas on the list are, alas, no longer with us. They are: 1) Hotel Alexis, which was closed down for political reasons by the new Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan and 2) Illigals, which was "closed" and promptly reopened with a new name due to its reputation as a drugs den. In place of Hotel Alexis, therefore, I would instead put Classic Hotel on the list - a real humdinger of a joint in this madcap city! A list of the top ten plus plus spas in Jakarta? Okay, without further ado (or should that be aduh!!!) here it is: 10. Malioboro Spa . Over cynical and commercial yet fun if you stick with it – a bit like watching Chelsea on one of their better days. Hey that’s a point – even Torres could score here! Hahaha! Wallet damage: Rp1million ++ 9. Emporium Spa . Overpriced but the facilities are pretty good. Go for the “one hour special package” if you
