Aston Bali, Tanjung Benoa - Beach beautification was completed

We received some exciting news from Aston Bali Beach as beautification was completed.

First of all, we would like indeed thanking you for your generous support toward our resort and your kind understanding during the beach beautification project undertaken by the local government.
We are pleased to inform you that this project has been completed. The construction of a new breakwater wall (or groin) and walkway at the southern end of our beach adjoining the Oasis Resort is done and will protect our beach and property from storm damage and minimize sand erosion.
ln addition, the sand in front of our property has been flattened to extend our beautiful beach for our guest's enjoyment. The shoreline is now located further away, providing a clean and larger recreation area on the beach, as well as a great wedding venue. Sea activities including swimming are of course still available.
Please be informed that a traditional "bale" (gazebo) will be built soon at the end of the new breakwater wall, involving a very minor work construction that will not disturb our guests at all.
We value our long time business relationship and look forward to further opportunities to be of service to our mutual customers, to ensure they enjoy their experience in Bali fully and will return time and again to enjoy the Aston Bali.
May you have time to see the project completion directly; we would be more than happy to assist you for a site inspection.
We assure you our best care and attention at all times.

The Bvlgari Resort, Bali inspection

I recently went to The Bvlgari Resort, Bali with an inspection visit, below are some photos from there.

The Bulgari Resort is located in one of the most exclusive destinations in the world, a veritable emblem of the tropical exoticism of the Orient, combining the breathtaking beauty of unspoiled nature with a sophisticated contemporary design born from the encounter between traditional Balinese forms and high Italian style. The quality of the services along with the views of the Indian Ocean offered by its magnificent position 150 meters over the sea are the perfect introduction to the second luxury property from Bulgari Hotels & Resorts.

The Resort consists of 59 villas with ocean views, and together they represent a contemporary interpretation of a synthesis of Italian design and traditional Balinese style. Designed by the architectural studio of Antonio Citterio and Partners, the interior walls are made of hand-cut volcanic stone and palimanan, while the window and door frames feature the sophisticated nuances of bangkiray, a Javanese mahogany. The refined fabrics that adorn the rooms are designed and woven locally in collaboration with a team of Balinese artists and designers.
