Dining with Meli at Jimbaran Bay

post from Bali Blog on 09 April 2010 10:56:14 PM. © Bali Blog

Yesterday we rang an old friend of ours, Meli who runs the Internet Outpost in Poppies Lane 2, and invited her for a fish feast at Jimbaran Bay on the Bukit. Over the years this place in Bali is getting busier and busier and understandably so. Who could resist fresh seafood grilled over the hot [...]

Vous Spa at Pullman Hotel Putrajaya

Vous Spa at Pullman Putrajaya is one of the latest beauty and treatment spas to hit town. Opened in March 2010, this new holistic spa located in one of the latest hotel and resorts in Putrajaya and currently is offering some great promotions before the official opening which is scheduled to be somewhere in April 2010. I had the pleasure of experiencing the Vous Spa at Pullman Putrajaya and a big thank you goes out the the Pullman Hotel and Resorts for this.

Vous Spa Putrajaya main entrance
Vous Spa at Pullman Putrajaya is located at the Lotus Wing on Level Two of the Pullman Hotel and Resort and is styled in a simple rustic wood with modern contemporary design. Nothing that is too loud or busy for their design.
Vous Spa at Putrajaya waiting area
As you have made your bookings or reservations, you would be ushered to the waiting area which is a designer styled circular room with a curved sofa sitting over water. It is here that the local therapist will greet you with big smiles on their faces.
Vous Spa staff welcoming guests
Herbal ginger tea is served cold together with a nice cold towel at this waiting room. Mind you that the therapist are all locals which have been trained by a local Spa and Holistic School in the city. They had a great mix of massage therapist in different races which was something new to me.
Vous Spa Pedicure and Manicure Treatment Room
For those who enjoy a little pampering without having to massage, the Vous Spa offers Pedicure and Manicures which are located in one of the sections of the spa. Inside a circular glass room which is extremely cozy.

For me, I took the Vous Spa Signature Massage which was a two hour spa treatment of mix ethnic styles created by their spa team. For this treatment, a fusion of Malay, Chinese and Indian massage therapies were included and was something different from most of the usual spa massages I have tried.

The spa treatment rooms here are tastefully done with not too much design involved. Modern touches with comfortable spa beds and cleverly designed bathrooms with a nice looking jacuzzi in the spa area. On entering the treatment room, we were shown the changing cupboard where a safe is included for your belongings. After a quick change, the therapist came in and our sessions began.
Vous Spa Packages and Treatments Menu
Some of the Vous Spa treatments offered are the Vous Massage which is their signature treatment. They also have the Traditional Malay Massage, Warm Stone Massage, Tui Na Massage, Tension Relief Massage and Foot Massage. For this experience, I tried the signature Vous Massage during my spa treatment.
Vous Spa - The main spa area
If you are the type that has plans for something different and always looking or something new, I can easily recommend you to try the Vous Spa at Pullman Hotel and Resorts in Putrajaya. The spa is currently running some interesting offers for their soft opening with 50% discounts on spa treatments for single or couples.
Vous Spa at Pullman Putrajaya is also offering a Buy One Free One treatment which ends on June 30th. This is applicable for American Express card members only. For more details on this, you can visit the official website for American Express.

When The Going Gets Weird: World's 11 Strangest
Buildings

[Scott M]

Yesterday Gridskipper linked to the Times UK's article on bizarre places to stay in Paris, today we're calling out the world's strangest buildings in Travel + Leisure. Surprisingly not included in the slideshow along with The Bar Code Building in St. Petersburg , Jerusalem's Ramot Polin Apartments and the Oriental Pearl TV Tower in Shanghai: the George Washington Masonic Memorial in Alexandria, Va., which appears to plunk the Empire State Building on top of the White House (pictured). Or is that building just ugly? [Travel + Leisure]
