~ Highlights of Hotel Indigo, Seminyak, Bali ~

We are once again in Bali for a short break and this time staying at Hotel Indigo. This hotel is perched almost on the beach with a very small road to cross. Mostly used by motorbikes so not too difficult to cross. It’s a surfers’ beach and not one where you can have a leisurely swim. Seminyak for us is more about relaxation and drinking and eating!

The Lobby
“I’m not a real Vespa”
“Balinese Art”

Our room is called a “comfort room” and is indeed extremely comfortable. There is a balcony with small forest outside. We don’t have a great view, but it’s still pleasant to sit outside when there is a breeze blowing.

The staff are super pleasant and eager to please, nothing is too much trouble. There are plenty of sunbeds at this time of year, it’s just out of season. Two fabulous restaurants and a small cafe. We’ve had breakfast, lunch and dinner here and no complaints from us.

We have eaten in a variety of places, upmarket and downmarket! On the beach and overlooking the beach.

La Plancha, a Spanish tapas cafe. This place looks about ready to fall down, adds to the atmosphere!

The Plantation, Double Six Hotel. A 1920’s style restaurant with enormous windows overlooking the ocean. This was luxury at it’s finest. A special treat was in store as there was a beautiful soprano singer to entertain us.

Dry Aged Duck Breast
Oven Roasted Black Cod

Dinner at the hotel restaurant – Makase

Rijsttafel – A Dutch word translating to Rice Table. An elaborate Indonesian meal sometimes consisting of up to 40 small dishes.
Sweet and Sour Fish
Prawn Rice Paper Rolls

Seminyak is famous for the glorious sunsets, the beach bars make the most of this time and offer beanbags to relax on to watch.

We sat here for ages enjoying the beach life and our drinks, but time was passing and we needed to get ready for dinner!

And that’s a wrap!
