Travelling to Bali seems to be a right of passage for most Australians and international tourists.  And why not? Bali’s natural attractions include miles of sandy beaches, picturesque rice terraces, towering active volcanoes, sacred caves, and lush tropical forests full of exotic wildlife. The island’s rich cultural heritage is visible everywhere - in over 20,000 temples and palaces, in many colorful festivals and ceremonies, in drama, music, and dance.

The best way to plan your next holiday would be to look at a Bali map and choose the places you would like to explore and the accommodation that best suits your needs.

Phuket Hotels Feb 23

I have been researching my next holiday to Thailand and we have decided on travelling to Thailand’s largest island, Phuket.  The best time to travel to Thailand is between November and February so we will travel sometime between these months.  There is such a wide variety of Phuket hotels to choose from and although I would love to stay in a five star luxury resort, I am going to look for a more budget option of which there are plenty.  I am travelling with 2 other girlfriends.

We chose Phuket because the beaches are stunning, the weather is nice and warm and the culture is so different which will be amazing to experience.  We have heard that the Thai people are so friendly and warm that they really make the difference to your holiday.  Phuket is also famous for its nightlife which I am sure we will take the time to enjoy.

Surrounded by rice fields, small villages and ancient temples, Ubud is also located close to the beaches and major towns.
