A Balinese water palace called Grand Hyatt

Take your eyes and mind through cascading waterfalls, landscaped gardens and lagoons that meander through 16 hectares of lush tropical gardens in Nusa Dua.

Incorporating the latest technology, the rooms have individual air-conditioning and humidity controls, private bath and shower, hair dryer, radio, satellite TV, international direct dial telephone, minibar, room safe and balcony.

Other features in the rooms are a cozy sunroom lounge area strewn with batik-covered cushions and a bathroom that opens up to the bedroom.

The resort features five restaurants offering a selection of Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, European and International cuisine; four bars; six swimming pools -- a pool for each day of your say; a 650-meter long white sandy beach; Camp Nusa children's activity center; and an extensive range of recreational facilities and water-sport activities.
