YTL SPA Village Tembok Bali- Healing Day 1

As the saying goes, it was short and sweet. I am talking about my 2nd trip to Bali but 1st time to YTL Spa Village Tembok. The 3 hours flight with AirAsia was alright and upon touched down, we were greeted by the driver of YTL Tembok Bali. Mr Songkeng (i hope i get his name spelling right). 
Our personal driver..minerals, gado gado and towels to refresh ourselves

 Then it will be another 3 hours drive to the destination which are located up north of Bali. 
Now you know where is Tembok, 3 hours drive up north from the Airport
He was very friendly and as we chatted away, he shared some of the local stories and tales as well. We were offered gado gado, ginger sweets and minerals.

We stopped at one of the Lotus Restaurant, an open air restaurant by the beach which overlooking the Lombok Straits for toilet break.

Finally after 3 hours drive, we arrived at our destination. YTL Spa Village Tembok BALI!! 
The lobby area
I was really tired but the welcome treat was refreshing and pleasant that it took my exhaustion away almost instantly. Imagine all staff addressed you by your name.  Not Sir / Madam but my name..Aaahhh..I never felt so appreciated or important for their extra effort to treat every guests like a VVIP..:)
aaahhh...lime juice and food massage..loving the pampering given
I could feel the strong vibe of optimistic energy, penetrating my mind with ease and certainly not just another resort I have seen or been. This place remind me of Permai Rainforest Sarawak, only minus the luxury and private sanctuary. Nestled between Mount Agung and the beach, YTL Tembok Bali simply ignite my heart, body and soul effortlessly.

Checking in was simple, staff took our luggage and Mr Fauzi , the Assistant Manager escorted us to the room, KAMAR room. Spacious, private balcony, clean and I've noticed that beautiful wood decor with detailing  of exotic concepts around the room. There are altogether 27 Kamar rooms, 2 Suites (Purnama & Surya) and 2 Villas (Baruna & Samudra).
Spacious and impressive room
The huge toilet looks so relaxing..with flower petals here and there..and its SUPER CLEAN!
Jemput minum..hehehe
The smile that they planted on their face, the sincere heart gesture that show the true beauty of  Balinese and a reminder to me that there are serendipity haven still exist over here. After a round tour of the resort, 1st activity - SPA treatment. :)
 
Before entering the treatment room, the therapist will introduce herself and explain the process of the treatment
Treatment Room, all ingredients are from natural source (herbs, plants and spices)
After 15 minutes of food massage at the treatment room, we were given JAMU and crushed iced coated with palm sugar...yummmyyyy..Then, we get to chilled outside in this unique sofa bed..so comfy
Frozen strawberries and chilled fragrance petals dipped in the chilled aqua..soothing
I was treated like a queen..hrmmm ...bliss and blessed..i know..envy? make a trip down here then
Spa treatment room - you may choose from varied type of treatment that suit your interests
 People are so genuine, that you feel like being lifted up to another world. This place really suitable for everyone that seek for soul searching, honeymooners, rejuvenating and most importantly a paradise that leave you breathless and innocently get carried away by the beauty of the nature.

Dinner was served from 7.00pm -1030pm, food was freshly prepared by local Chef name Made. We were very impressed with the staff  that served us especially Hendra and Ari. Their attentiveness is definitely brings value to YTL. Not only they are accommodating but they actually give some tips or two about what to order and to do around here. They are well mannered and always  ensure that we are comfortable plus quick to response from our body language itself.  

The presentation of the food justify the taste of the food. Excellent taste and 3 full yet healthy course meals simply guaranteed our satisfaction.  

After dinner, we just chilled by the poolside and enjoyed the picturesque view where candlelight glowing in the night and the sound the wave accompany us on this peaceful night. Stars shinning bright and I wished I could freeze this moment because it was beautiful and perfect. Star light gazing was a wonderful experience.infact it is one of the innovate spa treatment where we just need to lie on the floating bed and enjoyed the scenery under the sea of stars. caught 2 magnificent shooting stars on separate timing that night...awwwww...:)  Dream a little dream :) perfect way to end the night.
hrrmm...wish i could own this place...ahaks
Alright will keep you updated for more beautiful moments/activities of this paradise. So, wait for it yea.
