bali tropic hotel
ADSENSE CODE #3
Where to go in the tropics? Is there an affordable, ‘authentic’ paradise’ that has culture but no crowds?
My wife and I have enough airline miles to fly practically anywhere in the world. This year, it’s our 10th anniversary. Where should we go for a 10 day trip, with 50% relaxing, 50% hiking / snorkling / sightseeing? Our requirements (in order of importance):
1. Peaceful — few tourists / crowds
2. Excellent, plush beach w/good snorkling
3. “Paradise” like surroundings (i.e., Moorea, Kauai)
4. Mountains w/trails for light hiking
5. An “authentic” place w/local culture
6. Ability to get around cheaply without renting a car
7. Not absurdly expensive to stay in a decent hotel/villa/etc (i.e., not the Maldives)
8. Wildlife that’s different than in the U.S.
This is the closest I have gotten to a short list. What am I missing?
Moorea
Bali
Bora Bora
Palawan, Philippines
Sri Lanka
Although I know most of these are on the expensive side.
We are not limited to A/P region; that’s just what I’ve found so far.
Lombok island. It has everything that you want, and very close to bali.
