1 Pineapple Villa Bali Interior Design & Homewares Tours 2016

2 Thank you for your enquiry regarding our upcoming Bali Interior Design and Homewares Tours in 2016 and beyond. Three dates are scheduled in 2016, with more to come in 2017 including a Morocco Tour! So you may be wondering who is Pineapple Villa - I would like to briefly introduce myself. My name is Melinda and I am a qualified freelance interior designer with a passion for travel, shopping (especially homewares), gourmet dining and boutique hotels. After 15 years as a travel consultant and agency manager I am now merging my vast experience in arranging travel with my love of Bali and all things Interior Design. I have travelled to Bali many times since Most recently I escorted a group of ladies in March 2015 where we discovered beautiful homewares, divine dining options and the beautiful people and culture of Bali. This trip was so successful and memorable (for all the right reasons) that I have decided to further this experience and invite ALL of you to join me in exploring unique homewares stores, beautifully designed hotels and restaurants and the amazing sights and culture of Bali. Please join me,

3 Just between us...(shhhh) a very special and exclusive visit is planned to Stuart Membery's property Monkey Villa for champagne brunch in the garden, and will include time at Stuart Membery Furniture & Home Collection. This is only the tip of the iceberg of what is being planned and much collaboration with homewares and interior design shops and places of design interest are planned - including some special discounts for our exclusive small group. If you haven't travelled to Bali before (or even overseas) fear not...everything will be looked after for you! Monkey Palm

4 Tour 1 - The Colony Hotel - 5 March 2016 For everyone's enjoyment and comfort I have decided to limit the group size to 10 rooms (maximum 20 people). The hotel we are staying at is the beautiful and wonderfully located COLONY HOTEL, Seminyak. Dates are now confirmed for check in 5 March 2016, check out 12 March Please note that this tour is land only content. You will be responsible for booking your own flights to and from Bali. This gives you many options including utilising frequent flyer points, choice of airline, choice of exit airport and so forth. You may also wish to consider extending your trip after our portion is finished and meeting up with family or friends and continuing your holiday. The costing for this departure is AUD$ per person for land content (twin share). If you prefer a single room please allow AUD$ This will include accommodation, tax and service at the Colony Hotel, breakfast daily, return airport transfers and all transport within Bali. I am also working with some amazing restaurants to secure meal options and pricing.

Ample free time will be provided for relaxation, beauty treatments or whatever your heart desires.
