Family Matters

Here at Exquisite Media, we're firm believers in the notion that while you can always make more money, you cannot make more time, which means we should really make the most of our opportunities to create special memories with those who matter the most: our families.

In honour of this notion, we have dedicated this issue to family getaways. It's time to take a break from the daily routines and escape to places that bring all your family members closer together and bring enjoyment for all. Our cover theme presents the best familyfriendly accommodations, dining destinations and activities in the region.

In the spirit of the summer holiday, we have also explored noteworthy destinations in Bali, from Wapa di Ume, The Chedi Club Tanah Gajah and Royal Visesa Ubud in Ubud, to Bukit Pandawa Golf & Country Club in Ungasan. We travel further to Thailand in the Exploring Asia pages and to Prague in the Escaping Asia pages.

Of course, the issue wouldn't be complete without meeting some of the most hardworking and inspirational people in the hospitality industry. Get to know Pullman Jakarta Indonesia's General Manager Jamie Faus, Ungasan Cliff Top Resort & Sundays Beach Club's CEO Steven Cain and Hilton Garden Inn Bali Ngurah Rai Airport's General Manager Jeanphilippe De Haes.

In between we have a scrumptious bite or two at Vis à Vis French Restaurant at JW Marriott Hotel Surabaya, indulgent pampering at The Spa at The Legian Bali and other finer things in life that we love so much.

Now log off your laptop, call your family and book that ticket to summer memories! We'll see you next time.
