Coming to Bali: W Retreat and Spa
Here’s some good news to cure the post-summer blues. Starwood recently announced that it will open a new W Retreat & Spa in Bali in 2009. This will be the fourth such Retreat for the brand, after the successful launch of the Maldives property which opened in September 2006. The atoll had never before seen such pampering and indulgence– a luxury playground like no other. (The W Retreat will also open in Vieques next year, followed by the Koh Samui retreat in 2009.) Bali is one of the top-rated resort destinations in the world, and the new W Retreat will no doubt make a splash for honeymooners seeking something unique. Situated in the Seminyak area of the island, the 152-room resort will be surrounded by rustic villages, rice terraces, and beaches. 80 villas will be designed with traditional Balinese courtyards and private pools. Of course the W Retreat experience wouldn’t be complete without a poolside destination bar and the signature Whatever/Whenever concierge service.
My husband and I would be interested in staying at the W resort in 2009. Please forward information on dates when opening and if we can be put on a waiting list for bookings.
Am very interested in the opening of your new W resort in Bali. Please forward further details to me regarding the opening dates of this new resort.
Thank you.
