sure, bali is still the world’s most exotic island in the world that you can’t compare anywhere on any place in the world, there’s distinctively different of what you ever see before…

I like your analysis as I have argued for years that a trip to Bali is a better deal than Hawaii. My family members still travel to Hawaii nearly every year and I am the only one who has been to Bali.

In February I posted an analysis on my Loyalty Traveler blog showing how a person could go to Bali while earning elite status on American Airlines, and gaining several free hotel nights by combining several hotel and airline promotions running at that time.

There is a photo of the Laguna Resort at Nusa Dua, Bali in the post.

I enjoyed your analysis as hotel travel economics is the focus of my blog.

What a great post! I think we often fall into the assumption that nearby or commonly visited destinations are cheaper than more exotic ones, and it’s often not true.

Thanks for including my spa series post here. I’d agree that Bali is probably much cheaper than Hawaii at present. Each have their charms and if you do decide to go to the Big Island next year let me know. I went a year and half ago and fell in love!

Also, I’d love more info about the SF Travel Bloggers group! I tried to contact Nancy through her website, but it wouldn’t let me send an email through.
