Lombok Weekend 01: Living Asia Resort & Spa

it has been over two months since Lombok

and somehow i blogged about

the HK trip which took place in March

 

because…

i tend to prioritize shopping posts

over the rest since shopping usually presents

an easier angle to blog about

 

it was a short weekend trip

flying on a Saturday afternoon

due to a flight delay for two hours

one each before taking off and landing

 

it took another 2 hours

travelling to the hotel

in heavy rain and hence

landed in hotel room almost mid-night

day zero was officially gone

 

thank goodness

the hotel was amazing

wish i could have spent more time here

 

what a waste that

i did spent a lot of time

but to work on projects

and took nap in between

all the way until the next morning

 

since we checked in late on a raining night

didn’t manage to explore the surrounding much

the room was not bad at all

in fact way beyond our expectation

for the price of 70+ USD per night

basically the room is equals to

the entire “floor” of a chalet unit

and yes we did take partial sea view

yet where is the sea

but we did hear the wave

under the open-air shower

nevermind…

 

since i worked until 7 AM

the next morning

it was quite impossible to sleep back

since soon everyone else would be awake

 

and i went out for a walk and

found the sea

really

we were paying 73 USD

per night for a room for two

which consists of the entire level

and not forgetting

the buffet breakfast by the sea

they do serve some local delicacies as well

but well… i am that boring

i think i am finally

getting the idea of

all you want to do is to

hang out at the hotel

or where your home is

leave the lovely resort and its W-Fi
