Why Choose Serene
Bali Villa
For less than the cost of staying at a good hotel in Bali
you can now enjoy the luxury of a beautiful private villa
with air-conditioned bedrooms and tropical bathrooms. Imagine,
spacious living and dining areas and lush tropical gardens
with your own private swimming pool, and a trained butler/chef
to take care of everything for your holiday.
Sea Side of Seminyak
When l first moved to Bali, in 1999,l signed a one-year
lease on a cheerful two-room house with a big garden in
Seminyak, the “nice” part of Kuta. In those
days, the place was still pretty funky. When l knocked of
work at sundown, l would grab a big bottle of Bintang beer
(wine was virtually unobtainable back then) and pedal my
bicycle down to Jalan Oberoi to unwind by watching the sun
settle over the rice fiends.
Once Serene Never Forgotten
Serene isn't perhaps a word you would associate with Seminyak
these days - congested road, flat out contruction and poor
drainage. 'Surreal' might be more appropriate. Yet people
still flock to this trendy area of Bali.

Getting Away From It All
It's typical August afternoon at the office. The story I'm
writing is past deadline and my boss is getting twitchy.
The thunder of rain on the roof fails to drown out the annoyingly
carefree laughter of the colleague who's finished her piece
for the day.
36 Hours in Bali
8.30pm Saturday After the Schapelle Corby case I'm little
nervous going through Custom's at Denpasar's Ngurah Rai
International Airport. But the officer doesn't give my bag
a second glance. He does, however, notice that I have three
bottles of duty-free wine.
