How to stay in Bali's luxury hotel for less// Hotel xx Bali's most stylish boutique hotelWhat

I will come right out and say it, I love to stay in a luxury hotel. But what I do not have is unlimited funds, so I always looking for ways to save. Generally, there are 3 ways to ethically do this.
1. Research
2. Aviation of the best offers
3. By leveraging hotel loyalty programme

As someone who love to travel around, as well as being a travel blogger, I make a good research hahaha!This was my first time traveled to Indonesia, Bali. I wanted to stay somewhere private, relax and cheap, ideally a private villa. This is how I came to love Agoda.com, a platform that allow travelers to book discounted hotel rooms.

So yay like I've mentioned, I only spent a total of RM415 for 5 days 4 nights in 3 different villa. How do I find cheap hotels in Bali? Here's my tips!

The first 2 nights : Astana Batu Belig, Kerobokan

The first villa I booked on Agoda in Seminyak, conveniently located for a beach trip and priced at just RMxxx per night. When I found Astana, I not only got my wish staying in a private villa, but also the best services I ever seen. It's within walking distance to the BatuBelig beach, the rooms are equipped with facilities and amenities such as private swimming pool, huge bath tub, safety box, free Wifi and etc

At first glance, it was a beautiful and luxurious suite. 



Check out the the bathroom! Omg the bath tub!




However there some incident happened here. Four of us were dragging our suitcases to the hotel at 10pm. But the moment I checked in, I was told that there's only one king size bed for 2 persons.  As soon as I found out I was very frustrating, knowing that we would need 2 beds for 4 persons, so I booked Astana because of the website written: 1 king bed/ 2 queen size bed. I requested to talk to the manager. What happened next surprised me, he listened to my story and he apologized again. He admitted his mistake and that he will contact the Agoda to ensure it doesn't happen to the next guest.Already, I was cooling off a bit. By the end I personally think the services were good and professional. It was a great experience indeed.








Location: Jalan Batubelig No 28, Seminyak Bali, Indonedia

Price: RM988 ( early booking saver 35% discount)

The third night: Twin Island Villa, Nusa Lembongan 
The reason why we kept on changing hotel was because of we wanted to go for snorkeling at Nusa Lembongan. So I've booked the second villa with RMxxx per night. Situated on the south end of the island with panoramic views overlooking the ocean view, a place that enable you to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. This is what an island living about. 

Meet my room!


I never stayed in a room like this. It's a wooden structure villa with a nice balcony view, I enjoyed it nonetheless. 

Snacks and beer, anyone?The mini fridge was stocked with everything from carbonated drinks and beers.


The bathroom comes with toiletries such as shampoo, towers , toothbrush shower-cap and etc. I love the ambient, it's so peaceful
