You won't need a discount. You can stay in a five-star hotel for under $200. The best hotel experience I've ever had in my life was in Cambodia. An upgraded room in a 5-star hotel including breakfast for $125/night, and every time I arrived back at the property an incredibly beautiful woman, impeccably dressed, would greet me with a towel soaked in iced rose water.

I've been through that area more than once and it is magic if you do it right. I got into Myanmar which was a hassle but didn't make it to Bagan and I will always regret that.

Being an American driving a Lambo is edgy to me but no doubt Doug has it figured out. While I've been to several countries there Bali/Indonesia is not one of them. The friends I have over there love the used Toyota Camrys they import.

 

Bali is actually way more luxurious and nicer overall than a Maui or Oahu. A lot of people stay in Villas which are super swank and typically much nicer architecture than what you would find in the super high end neighborhoods in LA, but it is super cheap for the level of luxury offered and comes with private staff and chef.

The 4 Seasons within 1 mile of my Villa (house) in Bali ranges from $450 to $1,500 a night.

Something more buitiquey like mine and nicer than the 4 Seasons can run about $1,000 to $10,000 per night.

Yeah, I'm going to need that discount

 

The Ungasan is not mine . . , but we are somewhere in between.

You can rent a nice 2 or 3 bedroom villa close to the beach for around $2,000 per month.

There is truly something for all budgets there, but the really high end 5 star stuff is going to be a bit more than less than $200 a night . . . at least once Covid is over and the island is open again. I think Bali is still shut down to tourist visas as of a week ago. I am getting in on business visas and an investor kitas and we still have to fly into and quarantine in Jakarta for 5 days.

 

Bali not = to Cambodia . . . .

I'll post up our hotel once we officially take possession next month. Just waiting on the formalities of our PT PMA foreign investment company to be finalized so we can transfer actual possession of the hotel. Foreign citizens cannot legally own freehold property in Bali, but our 100% owned foreign investor company can own the property.

I actually will be happy to provide Rennlist discounts. Lol, we may be super cheap if Covid shut down does not lift soon.

I hope I can take you up on that some day. Good luck, I hope you succeed.

You planning on sticking around Rennlist once you move? I assume any high class has internet.

 

Please calm down. My reference to the "Politics and Controversy" forum or whatever it's called had not the first thing to do with you or anything you posted but was in response to MIssileFlyer who seemed frustrated by a post with some subtle political jabs. Just pointed out that things have gotten a lot better after that new forum was created. Separated car discussions and political opinions for the most part. That's all. Best I can tell his frustration wasn't even caused by anything you posted to begin with so what got you so worked up I'm at a loss to understand.

Other than that I agree with what you say except that I would never make it in Bali or Thailand. I would do just fine being born and raised in a European country where handouts and "free stuff" far exceeds what we get here. After almost 40 years in the US I have no issues with the differences. Have always been self sufficient and don't plan on making any changes to that no matter where I live.

 

Of course. Every country in that part of the world is quite different. Cambodia is poor. When I first went there I only wanted to see the temples of Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom and get out. The "Killing Fields" story filled my head. It could be because of the trauma they've gone through during the Khmer Rouge period. Or maybe they are naturally sweet people. F*cking love that country.

I'd love to come to Bali. I got married 6 years ago and my wife likes Europe, and has yet to respond positively to the idea of Asia. She hears stories about men going to Bangkok and doesn't get just how magical parts of Asia can be. And you can get a fairly nice hotel in Bali for under $50. This is based on 30 days from now but I'm sure it will double as bookings increase. This search is for 5-star hotels traveling 30 days from now. Like Doug said prices will go up soon. Surely the cheap ones are not like Dougs but demonstrates just how cheap it is to travel there.

5 star hotels in Bali

I like little boutique places, Doug. Sound wonderful. Congratulations.

 

Good luck to you Doug H.

Let's get back on track:

What do you all think of this car? 2012 GTS 6SPD Coupe Aero kit 20k miles $120k.

Weird title issues having to do with the odometer.

Thanks maaaan! What is the deal with the odometer?

 

• Asking Price

  $99,997

  
  VIN: WP0AB2A91BS720762
• Mileage: 7,080
  
• Transmission: 6-Speed Automatic

Something weird is going on. "Exceeds Mechanical Limits" means it's more miles than the odo can show. In 2013? No way.

Sucks that it's on the AutoCheck.

Doesn't seem to effect the asking price though!

 

NOPE.

 

Please guys, let's stay on topic here!

 

Yes, I want to hear more about the hotel.
