I am wondering f you can tip the staff for sun lounges, thats what people were dong in Bali, found that out and was oppsed to it, but if we want a day by te pool t coud be worth it. Hsve to see how it pans out.

Talking of tipping, whats the go out there. Do we tip everyone!!!

Hopeful i will not have that problem any more in Bali next year. We are building a villa in jimbaran

Fingers cross ready by March

Would you like to see a picture of the building so far?

[judydawn]

Ooh, yes please fundj.

[johnro]

Tipping is a definite yes Hally - as Aussies we have some difficulty understanding the need but whether we like to acknowledge it our not our wages are so high compared to US.  But in saying that we have never tipped if the service was not up to standard or above.   

[Halex]

Our hotel charges Us$20 per day resort fee, would that cover tips?

[Halex]

When will it be finished? Lucky you
 

[fundj&e]

Stage 1 hopefully by March 2012
Stage 2 will happen when DH can take 2 months off work

Stage 1 is only a 1 bedroom unit that we are building so we can stay there while starting the main house

How exciting Fundj - thank you for sharing with us!!!!!   

[judydawn]

Yes, thank you fundj - please update as and when progress is made.  What is that white rock on site?  So, your plan is to live part of the year in Bali and Australia - you must love it over there to set up permanent/semi-permanent roots.

aussie wages are higher than most countries..even though DH is on good money he would be earning alot more for the same job in oz plus everything is so expensive here
