We requested for breakfast to be delivered to our beach house this morning with no charges, but we felt obligatory to give some tips. The breakfast was sumptious!
Gave us the energy needed to last for the morning.
We made our way to the nature trails and saw some interesting plants. There are many flora and fauna on Nikoi, also some animal species like the MalayanWater Monitor, the 2nd largest lizard in the world. We also saw the common house gecko.
However, there were too many mosquitoes along the trail that they bit us relentlessly although we had mosquito patches and sprayed insect repellant!
A swim in the pool was our next activity. One adult and one children pool. The bar is just next to the pools. And many people were seen relaxing under the shade or doing the free activity: suntanning!
Shortly after, lunch comes next. Today’s lunch was yet again delicious with yummy Balinese fish and a baked double cheesecake to top up the meal. We really felt that the meals were so far very well planned and very delicious.
They have met our expectations and the experience eating was made even better with the hospitality displayed by the staff. We felt a little lazy after that and walked slowly back to the beach house along the beach. One thing to comment is that the beach is really clean and the water is very clear. Walking along the beach while the waves come through is one activity we really enjoyed!
Of cuz, phototaking is a must and we had a couple of shots before taking a lazy afternoon nap!
After the nap, massage comes next. Got to get recharged at times when you live in stressful Singapore..well, it’s our 1st time doing the Balinese style of full body massage and I must say I felt a little nervous of what this is all about. At the end of 1h 15min, my limbs were relaxed and I felt recharged indeed!
Sunset viewing is a must in Nikoi. Seeing yesterday’s sunset, I wondered if today will also be magical. I packed my gear to get a good viewing spot.The clouds were dramatic but were unlike yesterday when the clouds filter the sunlight to give shades of red, pink, purple, blue, yellow and orange.Below is a pic of Day 2’s sunset. To me, these sunsets are really so much better than what Ive seen in Singapore. So for those who are keen in sunset photography, Nikoi Island may be your next hideout!
Sunset ends at around 720pm. We made our way to the restaurant for our 2nd dinner. Tonight is grilled chicken, chocolate brownie. Before these, is the yummy salad. The meals in Nikoi are always 3 course meal:The appetizer, the main, and the dessert. We really felt the meals were very well prepared, yummy and were wondering what the chefs look like!
Something greeted our eyes after dinner…something which both of us never saw before..the entire sky was lit with stars! Hundreds perhaps but it was the 1st time we saw this beautiful starry starry night. We hurried back to the beach house and rested on the bench facing the sky. Stars everywhere..little diamonds high up in the sky. Too bad I cant take any good pics of the stars! The eyes are always the best lens that one can have! And we saw shooting stars too! Wishes were made, hoping to come true!
