Bali Hotels Now With Last Minute Instant Confirmations

Greatest obstacle to get a room for the holidays in any of the hotels in tropical Bali was always the non-availability of rooms for any of the peak seasons. This has changed at www.Bali1.com where hotels themselves manage their room inventory inside the reservation system. Now availability and bookings get instantly confirmed at the best direct discount rates available.

“That is a big change to the old Balinese room request system that took up to 3 days to confirm any reservation” says Nyoman Tistawati of Bali1.com where some of the most popular Bali Hotels that have 80% positive or better customer reviews are listed. “Since the hotels manage their own room inventory it is not only far more efficient for customers to know what’s available in real time, it’s also easier to manage for hotels. Bottom line is it’s a valuable benefit to get the ability to view all hotels for any given dates in real time that are available now this moment. That is a huge time saver and great convenience factor especially for last minute bookings for people virtually already on their ‘way to the airport’. Most major hotels in Bali are available through this reservation system, except of smaller ones and private villas. These still can be requested the old way, sometimes the benefit here is huge discounts the hotels don’t even offer on their own websites. However because these hotels and villas have only very few rooms at these rates they basically require cash payment to guarantee the booking.

What would be a wire transfer for international visitors not currently in Bali. No problem for regular Bali visitors that visit Bali several times a year and are already familiar with the local system of trust. For first time travellers to Bali this might be too much to ask or understand, here the new instant confirmation system is a more viable option. Not only because all credit cards are accepted, also Paypal payments add to the convenience of last-minute travellers. “We are looking forward to see an increased number of hotels in Bali using the instant confirmation system, it’s easier for customers and also hotel providers” says Nyoman Tistawati of http://www.Bali1.com – “possibly over 500 Bali Hotels will use it by 2011 when more local hotel providers are ready to switch from the slow manual process to the more efficient management of available resources”.

HELP Macarena become TV HOST

Cancer survivor, explorer, Mother, inventor (www.PropupPillow.com) and Realtor Macarena Rose is proud to announce she’s in the running to be the next host of TV’s “Paradise Hunters.” The show, which visits people around the world who are living their dreams in their version of paradise, is looking for a person who loves exploring new worlds and meeting the people who call them home.

Macarena certainly fits that description. Born and raised in Washington, DC, she lived in St. Petersburg Florida for 20 years and then moved to Cayo District, Belize with her 15-year-old daughter five years ago, with 10 animals in tow.

“Since moving to Belize, life has been such an adventure. No monotony for sure!” she says on her website,  macarenarose.com. “I have been blessed to have had dinner with a prime minister, coach the semi pro Men’s futbol (soccer) team, be the voice on the SMART cell phone in Belize, host a weekly TV show featuring Belizeans lives and become part of Belize and sign the Bi-Lateral agreement with N.A.R. (National Association of Realtors) accepting Belize National Association of Realtors as an Cooperating Association.” Macarena says, “See, I believe if you are to relocate anywhere, you must bring good to where you go, and decide what it is you will do, before you go.” Macarena has done that, as an ordained Minister she has helped children in the education, arts and the feeding programs. Her life is “real” and she loves to show others how to “Keep it Real” in their own life.

Through her work as a Realtor, Macarena says she has become a relocation specialist, helping people find the right home for them, wherever in the world that may be. She has also made herself quite at home in Belize. In her audition video, she gives viewers an in-depth look at the country, with all the passion and knowledge of an expert tour guide.

“Ah! It’s pitahaya!” she exclaims while visiting a local market. “I have to tell you: it looks like an artichoke, but inside it tastes like a red kiwi and it is luscious… it grows all over Belize.”

As if the way she lives her li fe was not enough- Even her very name sets her apart from the competition.

“As your host, I can offer you one thing that no one else can: my name is Macarena, and in many different countries, I can have people do the Macarena,” she says in her video.

Macarena has committed to American Cancer Society and St. Jude’s Children Research Hospital, and we are asking for you to commit to her !

The contest closes December 14, 2010. Time is running out, so go to Macarena’s contest page and VOTE for her to be YOUR host to “Keep It Real”. See here to VOTE for Macarena to keep it “REAL”.

Smiles,

Macarena

In Mayan tradition there is a greeting which is In Lak’ech. In Lak’ech means, “I am another yourself (A modern day interpretation) and also means I am you, and you are me (A traditional Mayan interpretation)”

This Mayan greeting is an honoring for each other and a statement of unity. What few understand is that In Lak’ech ~ is not only a honorable Mayan greeting-It is a moral code. It is a way to live, with ALL forms of life in our world. When one lives the Mayan code of In Lak’ech, we understand that everything we do in this world effects all, either in a positive or negative way, depending on our actions and motivations.
