The Apurva Kempinski Bali

Before my wife and I decided to held our wedding ceremony in Apurva Kempinski Bali, we have browsed more than 60 other options in Bali. We have never been to Bali and I am glad that our hunch was right. Apurva is absolutely the best accommodation experience we had and the best wedding dream that could possibly come true. When I saw the photos of the hotel, I was stunned by the majestic building by the cliff, and I am sure that is my dream venue to have our wedding overseas. Right after I made the deposit, my wife told me Apurva Kempinski Bali was the hotel to host the 2022 G20 Summit and I know the reason the second I arrive the lobby. The Cliff Building: 1. All my guests including myself were stunned by every part of the hotel. The interior design is filled with Balinese culture and color. There are literally hundreds of photo taking spots in the hotel. 2. If you are not impressed by the pendopo-style lobby, check out the Indian Ocean view with a few steps forward to the open space expanded from the lobby. I am no architect with professional criticism but a regular would definitely enjoy the sunrise, sunset and breathtaking sunny scene there. 3. Dont miss the walkway from the center of the building. Standing there and looking at the scene of the resort, the ocean and the sky make me realize how tiny we human are. Environment: 1. Everywhere is filled with green. It pulled me out from the daily stress even I just planned a comprehensive wedding. 2. At the center of the resort, there is a huge swimming area. It is not a simple pool but designed with layers to fit the needs of families, kids, couples or even a single guy who just want to take a break. Drinks and towel is served next to the swimming area at multiple spots so I dont need to take much belongings with me. 3. I wanted to get to the beach on my last day of staying but didnt want to go out of Apurva, so I sunbathed at the beach inside the resort area. Sunlounger is everywhere on the beach. I ordered a local coconut and read beside the other guests who were playing volleyball, soccer, swimming and riding camels on the beach. Facilities: 1. I never tried a spa treatment before so I cannot compare, but the spa experience and massage I had in Apurva was absolutely luxury. All my wedding guests had it and liked it. 2. The Cliff Lounge is exclusive to Cliff room tenants. I got premium service at the Cliff Lounge which locates at the 9th and 10th floor. Youll get free drinks and free tea buffet which the food served changes everyday. I also got exclusive pool and sunbathing area there. 3. I didnt have time to attend the gym room but my groomsmen enjoyed it. They even bumped up right before the wedding ceremony to look good in shape at the last mile. Room: 1. Ive got a Cliff Room with private pool in the room. The room view is astonishing and I enjoyed the resort and ocean view from the private pool with my wife. 2. Not only room, but basically all the toilets of Apurva are mechanical - flush, clean, turn up the lids with a control panel. Very fancy. 3. I had welcoming fruit and local dessert waiting for me at the room. It is very thoughtful because I was hungry after a long flight while I didnt get the chance to eat on the road. Service: 1. The security check in Apurva starts from the entrance. Everyone and every vehicle has to go through security check before entering the premise. It makes me feel absolutely safe. 2. The spots within the hotel are distanced because the area so big and they have buggies to carry the visitors from point-to-point which is very convenient. 3. Every staff, I mean every, always put on a smile to welcome us, even we just met on a hallway. They proactively reach out to help. If you need anything, they are just one call away from dialing 0 and theyve got 3 phones in a single room. 4. Their staff is flexible - I requested them to check-in quickly for my wedding guests because we needed to go out for dinner. All we were asked to do was sending the passport image over WhatsApp and they prepared everything in no time. 5. When we checked out, they called to the room and asked if their staff can help us to send our luggage to the lobby, so that we dont have to take them by ourselves. Dining: 1. Koral Restaurant - Must try restaurant in Bali. It is an aquarium restaurant with fusion food. Tried the Koral Gourmet set and I recommended to my wedding guests who love it too. The grilled lobster and Waynu were really impressive. Everyone got the chance to take a picture with the diver who know how to interact with the guests. 2. Pala Restaurant - As a Cliff room tenant, I could go to the Cliff Lounge for a relative private breakfast buffet, but the one in Pala Restaurant is mighty impressive. Japanese, Indian, Indonesian, Chinese, you name it - the cuisine type is so diverse, and they serve some Indonesian drinks called Jamu. It is not for everyone to be honest, but definitely worth a try if you come to Bali. Friendly advise, if you plan to stay for couple days, dont rush to try everything in one breakfast, its just too much. 3. Reef Beach Club - Tried their signature Reef Surf n Turf dish, which is an Indonesian-style grilled seafood platter. It fed 5 of us and we knew if we didnt try the grilled seafood while staying in Bali, we were going to regret it. Wedding: 1. It took me 7 months to plan my wedding - and I could not do it without the event team of Apurva. They are detail-minded, proactive, friendly, punctual and trustworthy. Here I especially want to thank Ririn and Elsa who have accompanied my wife and I throughout the preparation process and the big day. It was not easy to plan an oversea wedding - its all based on trust, and I am glad that I found a world class team and venue to held my wedding. 2. The Ocean Chapel ceremony was simple but grand. I didnt need much decoration - a sunny day was what I needed because the sunlight was the perfect element to light up the window and bamboo chapel. The Chapel itself the perfect background for photo taking from outside. 3. I had the receptionist dinner in Kimaya Chapel which was very grand in pendopo-style interior design. When we rolled up the curtain of the window, the resort night view became the background and we were speechless. Their wedding package covered everything I needed and the crews were very professional and caring during the dinner. Summary: The second we finished the wedding and went back to our room, my wife and I both said that we want to suggest come here to have their wedding. We agreed this was the best decision we have ever made to choose Apurva Kempinski Bali as our wedding venue. All the guests enjoyed the stay without a single negative comment. Once again, I want to thank Apurva Kempinski and the team who made our dreams come true. I will definitely come back again in my next visit to Bali.
