Bali Luxury for Less

Everybody is scrambling to grab what few tourist dollars are still around, it seems. Hot on the heels of the Phuket Free Nights promotion I noted earlier this week is news of a similar promotion by the Bali Hotels Association. Called "Bali Bonus Nights", the promotion offers one night free accommodation with a minimum booking. The minimum booking depends on where you’re from: Southeast Asian residents get a fourth night free when booking three nights; ANZ citizens get a sixth night with five nights reservation; and everyone else gets an eighth night when staying seven. Sounds a bit complicated, doesn’t it?

Participating hotels include some of Bali’s most luxurious properties, such as the Aman resorts, Bulgari, Conrad, the Elysian, the Haven, Como Shambala Estates, and many more. Bookings must be made before 30 April, for stays up to 30 June only. Check hotel web sites for their participation and details.

Phuket POSH For Less

What’s better than staying at a luxurious pool villa on one of Thailand’s idyllic tropical islands? Staying there for free, of course. I’m cross-posting this from my main travel journal, since the Laguna resort includes some very POSH places, like the Banyan Tree.

If you were planning to visit Phuket this year, then you really should book your stay now, and get a free night with your stay. The Laguna resorts are all participating in the "100,000 Smiles" promotion, which gives one free night’s stay with any booking of two nights or more. All you have to do is book directly with the hotels, before 31 March 2009, and your free night will be added to your confirmed reservation.

Book through the following web sites to get our free night:
