Accommodation #2 - Breezes



Beautiful Lagoon style pool

Time to look at the next hotel on our list - The Breezes Resort in Seminyak. This resort is located quite close to the Pelangi, as you can see in the Maps page.
The layout of this hotel is fantastic, with plenty of privacy in your room and great access to the pool. This was the best solution in the immediate area for families, with the kid friendly lagoon style pool, kids club and interconnecting family suites.
While we haven't stayed at this resort ourselves, we have toured the facility and have good reports from others who have stayed here.
For those not requiring a family room, there are standard rooms and poolside rooms - these have double doors that open directly out to the pool area.


Poolside Room


The pool bar looks fantastic! Well stocked and plenty of seats for everyone, plus they have permanent umbrellas in the pool for those of us who don't tan too well.

Other facilities include the on site bar and restaurant, tennis court, gym if you're feeling up to it and the on-site spa! And of course the kids club;  let the munchkins be entertained while you kick back and enjoy your holiday.

This is a great resort with some fantastic ratings on all travel sites, we recommend this as a great family option for the week of the wedding.

Accommodation #1 - Pelangi Hotel

Thought we'd give you a bit more information on our number 1 choice in hotels/resorts.

Poolside at the Pelangi

We stayed at the Pelangi on our recent planning trip in April and loved every second. Located in the quieter area of Seminyak, we found that we were close to shops, bars and restaurants while still being right on the beach. The pool here is amazing, with plenty of sun lounges that look directly over the beach. And not one morning (even during peak Easter time) did we struggle to find a lounge - that's impressive!

View from the Sunset Terrace

The rooms are quite nice - King beds, mini bars, TV has 60 channels including movie channels, bath with shower and plenty of storage space. And that was the basic (called 'Superior')room. There are plenty of stairs around, the pool and lobby are located on different levels but the small amount of walking gave us time to work off the food we'd enjoyed!

The on-site restaurant does a great 'all you can eat' breakfast which is included in the cost of your accommodation. Choose from the standards in breads, croissants and cereals, right through to eggs (any and every style, cooked on request), bacon, pancakes, fruit and even Indonesian delicacies like Nasi and Mie Goreng. This should fill you up for the morning at least.

The restaurant is open til late at night and caters to snacks and full meals with a great range of western foods. But if you're feeling adventurous - we highly recommend trying some of the warungs (local restaurants) out the front on the beach; meals are as cheap as $4 for a huge plate and you won't find a better view.

Entrance to Pelangi Hotel

We will be staying here again in May. We've listed the pros and cons as we see them in the Accommodation tab on the site. The only issue we see is that there's probably not an option for a family of 4 as there are no family or inter-connecting rooms. Hence why we've suggested the Breezes resort which is a stone's throw away and is also an amazing place! More on that one to come soon.
