For our 5-day, 4-night trip to Bali we stayed at the Grand Hyatt in Nusa Dua. I wouldn’t go so far as to call it the best-equipped hotel in Bali, but it’s probably the biggest. The weather was great the whole trip, so as a keepsake I tried taking some photos that look like they belong in a hotel ad.
The hotel garden
The beach 1
As with almost every resort hotel like this, the beach is shared with the other hotels.
The beach 2
Tropical skies really pack a punch.
Private resort
The pool 1
I was told the pool is about 130 meters long. Very nicely done.

The pool 3
The pool 4
Balinese-style fountain in the pool
Intricate carving.
The lobby
A garden like a golf course
The roofs are all pretty much the same color.
Statue in the private resort
A plumeria on the beach umbrella
I took this lounging around on a beach chair after climbing out of the pool.
Sea-view seating at another hotel
Pure luxury ^_^
Another hotel’s garden
The beach runs continuously, so I wandered into the other hotels too.
Another hotel’s pool
It’s a work of art.
A squirrel
There were quite a lot of squirrels living around here..
One last pool photo
Going back and forth between the pool and the beach, napping in between – such a happy time. I’d love to go back…
