Nusa Dua, Bali

Our adventure continued as we headed down to Nusa Dua, where we stayed at the sister resort, Tanadewa Nusa Dua. Our private two-story villa, complete with an intimate and secluded pool, provided the perfect retreat for relaxation.

We were fortunate to have an incredible guide, Burwanto, who spent two days with us, expertly guiding us around the southeast part of the island. His knowledge and warmth made our exploration of Nusa Dua even more special.

One of the highlights was spending the day at Pantai Pandawa Beach. Known for its crystal-clear waters and stunning limestone cliffs, Pantai Pandawa is a hidden gem in Bali. We enjoyed swimming, lounging on the pristine beach, and sipping on refreshing cocktails, while Burwanto looked after our every need, ensuring we had a perfect beach day.

As avid Boardwalk Empire fans, we couldn’t resist an evening dining at the Ritz Carlton, Nusa Dua. The resort itself is a masterpiece of luxury, and our dinner at Bejana was no exception. The restaurant’s terrific atmosphere and glorious food made for an unforgettable evening. The chef personally came out to help us curate a vegetarian menu for my partner, Gill, adding a personal touch that made the experience even more special.

We wrapped up our trip with an afternoon of shopping, exploring the local markets and boutiques, and picking up a few treasures to bring home. By the end of our stay, we felt happy, full, and our holiday appetite thoroughly quenched—for now.

For anyone planning a trip to Bali and looking for a wonderful guide, feel free to contact me for recommendations. Burwanto’s expertise and kindness made our trip truly unforgettable, and I’m sure he’ll do the same for you.
