Wet Deck Aerial View

Wondrous. additional worldly. Wow, what a whale of a time. Welcome to W Hotel, Seminyak, Bali, a place where wishes come true. This specific immense 8 hectare resort must have been no mean feat to develop along with which is usually one of those places which make you say, “Human beings are pretty smart, actually.” What a wonderful world.

The entrance into This specific playground is usually dramatic using a capital ‘D’ – a giant W greets you before a long drive in between a water feature on either side, then through gardens which lead to the main building face along with an impressive lobby. The main building itself makes me think of a modern coliseum, however instead of overlooking gladiators along with wild animals, balconies on the beach-side overlook the WET pool, inspired by the form of rice fields along with spanning over 1,790 sq. metres where guests lounge, sip cocktails along with enjoy life by the waves crashing on Seminyak beach. What more could you want? Wait, which gets better.

Service using a capital W is usually what you get here – which is usually second to none. Staff are extremely professional along with speak very not bad English, along with we even spoke to one of the pool boys who sounded like he had been educated at an International school. Our porter asked us how we were along with called us by our first names. Inside the lift lights fade in along with out, which throws you initially, however becomes a cool little feature the rest of the time. The corridors are all open to the wind along with slightly barren, however which does add to the grandeur of the place. When the friendly porter escorted us into our room, he turned the Bose surround sound system on along with Empire of the Sun welcomed us on the stereo. If This specific isn’t enough to tell you This specific is usually a hip place, I don’t know what is usually.

Spectacular Ocean Facing Retreat

Even the names of the rooms are wow at W. Ours was the Spectacular Ocean View Retreat on the 3^rd floor using a view of the ocean along with the W gardens below. The retreat is usually large, with an aquatic green theme, simulating Bali’s surrounding seascape – the white cotton bedcover is usually hand stitched with leaves, hanging beaded side lamps resemble fishing nets along with headboards are made of synthetic leather embossed in green stingray skin. Even though the retreat is usually very modern, there is usually a vintage feel from the green sofa along with retro carpet. Everything is usually thought of. The room includes his along with hers wardrobes, an extra beauty mirror, three-pin wall sockets, a snack basket which includes a one-use underwater camera along with goggles, make-up remover, face wash, Earl Grey along with English Breakfast tea along with non-instant coffee (I was beside myself!).

There is usually no door to the bathroom area, made up of toilet with see-through glass, his along with hers aquatic green sinks along with an open-top wet room, separated only by a glass panel, with large slate bathtub along with standing shower, so if you’re shy or staying with someone unfamiliar, which may be awkward. There are however, sliding panels cleverly tucked away which can separate the bedroom through the bathroom area should you require privacy.

After checking out the retreat, we threw our bikinis on along with hit the pool. Pool boys greet you with, “Hi, how are you?” along with offer to carry our towels for us, finding us the perfect spot to lounge. They cater to our every whim, keeping us entertained along the way. through our little spot, I notice which W is usually not just a hotel, which is usually a tourist attraction. Every person which comes onto the top deck through the lobby poses for a photograph along with I do mean every single person! As the sun begins to set, the DJ at Woobar spins progressive house along with the lights are lit, creating a whole fresh atmosphere. Pool boys place electric candles at each table along with kiss pillows.
