    I know a lot of vloggers shy away from sponsored/gifted things in an attempt to stay unbiased, but you totally deserve to be treated the way Accor treated you! You give honest opinions of everything you experience, and make it interesting and entertaining for us. Keep up the good work. Hugs to Ying and Micah.

    Nice. I was part of the landscape design team from concept to construction phase. The pool really turned out so well designed. The pool is divided into 3 parts (lagoon pool, lap pool, and adult pool). The reason why it's so huge!!

    Just a thought. Because you don't like sweet things, you tend to only eat sour or salty foods. And breakfast you like to eat what you eat for lunch and dinner. Maybe you could get your wife's impression of the other food on here. I noticed it looked like she was eating waffles for breakfast. if she wouldn't mind giving her impression of the other foods that you don't like and don't eat, we could get a more rounded view of the food. Just a thought. The hotel you are staying in is incredible. So beautiful, and the buffet also looks incredible. I don't think I would want to leave!

  • @dariannk7552
    @dariannk7552 7 років тому +12

    The beach looks bad in Sofitel because it is located at the Southeastern part of the island where Nusa Dua is. Bali is internationally well known for its pristine beaches, and a lot of Aussies surf in Bali, but all these beaches are located on the Western coast of the island, facing Java island. So if you check out resorts like Ayana Bali (South-Western), or W Bali (Seminyak area), or just any resort in Kuta or Seminyak area, they have amazing beaches and extraordinary views and sunsets that would blow your mind off. But unlike Nusa Dua, Kuta and Seminyak are the most touristy spots in Bali (With Canggu, being north of Seminyak getting more hip nowadays), so you will find it interesting that in the streets, you might almost only see foreigners plus people from Jakarta or Surabaya.

    Ive been to that hotel and I can confirm is one of the best buffet. For reference, you can order a la carte buffet menu like lobster or egg benedict unlimited. there are also steaks, rib eye and tons of other choice
