Do you have something to celebrate? A milestone birthday.A promotion. Maybe it’s a big announceme­nt or a treat for someone special. So why not do it in style? Whether a party’s your style or an adventure, an indulgent retreat or just pure relaxation, you’ll find the perfect way to mark your moment in Indonesia.

PARTY

A villa in Seminyak or Canggu is the perfect location for a low-key party and a week of pure indulgence. Do yoga, swim in your private pool, have long lunches at amazing restaurant­s or have a chef come to you. Arrange a champagne delivery and a DJ and dance barefoot. Or go all out and book out a restaurant, hire an event planner and indulge your guests with cocktails, a gourmet menu and a night to remember.

INDULGE

Grab your besties and head to a health retreat in Ubud. Yoga, massage, guided meditation­s and walks along the Ayung Valley listening to the river. Book a vegan cooking course and market tour. Learn to

make your own perfume. Cycle through villages, past temples and if you’re lucky, enjoy a traditiona­l Balinese ceremony as practised by the locals.

RELAX

The pretty and peaceful island of Lombok, is just east of Bali. Hire a yacht for a day trip to the Gili Islands, take a day trip to the hinterland for a cooking course in the rice paddies at Tetebatu or a swim at the base of a waterfall like Benang Kelambu. Get a local Lombok coffee scrub and massage at award winning Puri Mas Resort and Spa. For some gentle retail therapy, visit a modern shopping complex in Mataram: think homewares, interior decor and summer ready beachwear.

EXPLORE

Hire a traditiona­l Phinisi schooner in Flores and sail. Swim, snorkel and wander along Pink Beach.Trek up Padar Island and visit Rinca Island’s Komodo Dragons. Book a private island resort in Komodo National Park at Sudamala Resort, Seraya, or the luxurious Ayana or Plataran Resorts on the Komodo mainland. For more informatio­n visit indonesia.travel
