“A magical romantic weekend away”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 October 2011

The Palm Beach bungalows provide a unique romantic getaway that is filled with a sense of true New Zealand nature, a Kiwi batch type styled accomodation with minimalistic but perfectly comfortable and magical surroundings in its own sense of exclusive privacy, relaxation and romantic getaway. Everything is well provided for, you have all the technology that you may require without being intrusive, and the Bali Garden itself was an incredibly relaxing experience to be enjoyed. We had our first night in the Treetops, then were to the Mudbrick on our second night for a change of scenery, and they both provide their own unique experiences that were thoroughly enjoyed by myself and my partner. We have strongly recommended it to all our friends and family, and in fact have purchased gift vouchers for others to enjoy as well. We will definitely return, and aim to experience some of the other unique bungalows as well.

“Beautiful, Spiritual and Soothing”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 October 2011

We had two nights at Palm Beach Bungelows, it was perfect location to the Island and beautiful.
It was a lovely change from concrete resort type accomodation,nestled in island bush and decorated beautifully.
We would definitely return there.

“Perfect hideaway”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 October 2011

This is the perfect place when you need to get away from it all and spend quality time with your loved one. The stress of daily life is drawn out of you from the minute you arrive. Peace and tranquility in abundence. I wanted to stay much longer than we did and i'm sure that it won't be too long until our next stay. A special place that is a treasure to those that find it.

“Charming and relaxing”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 September 2011

From the raving reviews our expectations were heightened. This probably makes a good grading unfair. Nonetheless not having a second storey (as we have read about previously) is something of a set-back - although Brenda has explained that it is for safety purposes. The balcony and outdoor seating were good but not great during the cold weather!

Minus these, you will be looking at a small cosy bungalow which is perfect for a romantic retreat - great character and a novel and unique experience for us. The hospitality is unparalleled. We will certainly return.

“"Watching from earth, the stars that form in heaven"”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2011

A unique experience in the most peaceful and serene setting . The ultimate hideaway for a romantic weekend for couples. The Bali experience is a must! To relax in the old bath tub, and find yourself mesmerized by the flames of the log burner while surrounded by the stars in the night sky is the most magical experience.
With everything at your finger tips and all your wishes and desires available in a twinkle from Phil and Brenda without even knowing there presence!

Room Tip: We stayed in th Luxury Bungalow it was peaceful,serene and emersed in nature.
