That’s a spectacular resort and villa. Your video review was excellent. I hope the service issues didn’t spoil your stay. At a resort like that, service should be over the top.
Looks great! From what you’re saying about service - I think Marriott should collect Guests’ preferences in terms of service. I prefer very low touch service, so for me it sounds great😅
Incredible. We stayed at their Ocean Cliff Villa, just because we didn't want any obstruction in our view. We loved it. Shared a UA-cam shorts in this profile, if you feel like, you can check that out :) Their BVLGARI Villa is stunning, but sadly it got sold out, or else, the best place to stay is that. Cliff Villa's panoramic view of the ocean is breathtaking. BTW one thing, BVLGARI Bali has one of the most unique feature which I saw in only one Indian hotel chain, Postcard Hotels, i.e. anytime breakfast. This is such a relief. Their main pool is stunning. The in-villa pools were really tiny so we ignored those, Raffles Bali, where we stayed later had massive in-villa pools which we loved. Dined at IL-Ristorante, but found it over-hyped, the Spa was decent, but not over the top as it should be for the price it was charging. But the private beach was stunning. Overall we really loved the property. The sunsets are unforgettable
I actually stayed there back in 2020, it is a nice property but had no facility’s open as only at 4% occupancy that time. My favorite hotel was the W Washington DC which is now Hotel Washington, so sad it left Marriott.
Beautiful resort. Try Ayana and Apurva if you have a chance. We did a 5 hotel series last year but never got around to uploading the videos. 😂 Your videos are awesome so we'll just settle for watching yours instead. You should do a video on how to earn points to help ppl afford these resorts. 😉
Thanks for the feedback! And good idea I definitely want to make more specialty videos like best hotel pools, points things, my top favorite hotels, best breakfasts… but the problem is I’m like 30 videos behind so have to catch up first but don’t know if I ever will.
Thank you for making good content!😁 The follow-up to the bug bite of a friend is very disappointing. I hope your friend has recovered well now. Additionally, May I ask if you have any benefits from the hotel as an ambassador elite?🙏
Thank you, yes we are doing well:) There are no elite benefits here at all for any level unfortunately. You can’t even earn points or use points to book a stay. The only thing is it’s bookable through the Marriott Website.
@gogotravelwithjosh ah.. As expected, I see. The Bulgari brand has always been curious, so thank you for your honest feedback👍 I guess in my case, I'd rather just Ritz-Carlton. I thought there would be something that would give you a special experience compared to the price, but it's a pity... 😥
The Ritz Carlton Reserve Bali I would recommend over this one. The best resort I’ve ever been to. I just released the video today, let me know if you have a chance to watch it. Ambassadors at Ritz Carlton reserves get $150 Stay credit which is awesome. You also are able to earn the points for your stay or use points to stay there.
I totally agree with you. For a resort with this price, you should expect the highest standard of service and service recovery. You should try a Four Seasons to discover that.
What a perfect review ❤❤❤❤ we love it 😊
Thank you ❤️

Thank you 😊! Overall I’m so happy with our stay, despite the few service flaws the resort is truly spectacular and nothing else like it.
Very good video
Focused on the things that interest me and not long and drug out like some videos can be
Thank you for the pleasant viewing
Thank you for the kind feedback ☺️
Stunning Property! Hopefully we will see the Mandapa Ritz Carlton Reserve in this Bali series
You will indeed 😉
Wow what an amazing resort so beautiful very luxurious ❤my dream trip one day in life enjoy ur vacation in bail 😊
Thanks & hope you will be able to take your dream trip here someday 😄🙏🏻🏝️
Stunning resort Josh! Wish I was there!
Hopefully you’ll make it someday 😃

Great review. We stayed at the Hanging Gardens in Ubud. Amazing luxury resort.
Wow the Hanging Gardens looks insane 😍! I now want to go there next time so bad! Wish it was part of Marriott or Hyatt 😭😭😭
My favorite is the Kempinski Bali!!❤❤
The Kempinski looked nice we walked around there when we stayed at the Ritz as it was so close!
I hope you can try checking in at soori Bali
Nice work Josh! Great review 👍
Thank you 😄

Josh, you should one time come to Washington DC, and stay at the JW Marriott Washington DC. It’s a really great and decorative hotel!
I actually stayed there back in 2020, it is a nice property but had no facility’s open as only at 4% occupancy that time. My favorite hotel was the W Washington DC which is now Hotel Washington, so sad it left Marriott.

Thank you! Bali is very beautiful 🤩

@gogotravelwithjosh
do you have any plans to upload Shanghai Ritz-Carlton? I'm curious because the price is reasonable compared to other countries!👍

I do want to go there hopefully next year!

Thank you! I would love to stay at a Four Seasons- definitely someday they are just all so expensive 😭.
Did you have a rental car when you stayed at the Bulgari?
No we just used Grab to get everywhere it’s not that expensive. And driving in Bali would be a challenge as it gets pretty crazy at times.
@gogotravelwithjosh Keep up the great reviews brother!
Thank you 😊 🙏🏻
It's pretty old villa, been there for a while. Wish they renovated it since price is $$$$$
If they do it truly will make it one of the best resorts ever. Just need to improve service.
