visit sumahotel bali and new zealand

Hello readers of this blog.
We have traffeled from holland to Bali , the suma hotel, and we will tell you here what we all have done and let you see alist of photo's to let you see what happened all there in Bali.First of all we took the plane by malaysia airline and flew to Luala Lumpur in Malaysia. So far so good.After that we took a plane from Asia Air!!We thought it was good, but first we only can take 15 kilo of luggage and before it was alowed to carry 20 kilo.So we opened the luggage to carry ourselves, but we still had to much and we paid for that. 30 euro. oke.Then we were able to board...... I did not believe it can do by planes, but........ we had seatnubers from 52 and 53....\But there were no seats with that number. We asked and the steward said:" you can sit where you want".That was why everybody was running to the plain !!!!Oke we are in the plane (was very old with old chairs) and flying.Arrival at den pasar was oke. All the stuff in the luggage again and take a taxi to Sanur.Sanur was very beautifull, with white sand on the beaches (so also the photo's).We stayed there for 3 days and was very good there.You can see the photos.After that we have been picked up by my partner Luh from Sumahotel. and it was a warm welcome.This hotel we have invested money to create a bigger hotel and also more beautifull. There is now a very nice pool, a beautifull restaurant, 4 nice appartments, a nice tropical garden etc. If you see the pictures you will see.The pictures are already to be seen on: (dutch site) http://www.sumahotel.com and on http://bobbie-sumahotel.blogspot.com.So we did a kind of working hollyday, but it is nice to do.The time we were in lovina beach, in our hotel in the north of bali, there was SAILING INDONESIA.That is an festival that organise sailing ships to come to bali every year and they visit Lovina beach.There were several activities on the beach such as dancing, bull racing and many more. (look at the dutch part of this blog and you will see).I will report more next days.bob

Sumahotel Bali

This is the hotel SUMA in Kalibukbuk in the north of Bali.

From the photo's above you can see our hotel with swimmingpool and luxe appartments.
The hotel is a small hotel with 14 appartments (for now, we try to build more) close to the sea and close to the centre of LOVINA beach.
There are a number of nice shops, restaurants and always beautifull weather.
Our hotel appartments are different, from small to luxurious and from 10 to 50 amdollars.
This is for 2 persons and breakfast in included.
After waking up you can take a dive in the swimmingpool and then have a nice breakfast. Then you can email your relatives or friends on the internet. The staff can help you with a number of things: trips, dolphin watching, snorkling, scuba diving, renting a car of scooter..etc. You ask and the will do it for you.
The people in the neighbourhood are very nice, friendly but very poor.
In the afternoon you can take a cocktail close to the swimmingpool and enjoy your hollydays, take a walk alongside the sea.

In the restaurant you can later on have a nice dinner.
So the hotel can bring you a lot.
We hope to see you soon.
