If it helps there is a new resort called Leticia by the Sea we had our pre nuptial shoot there last march before it opened and it is very pretty. The owner is the same as the Leticia hotel in Davao. Now we did our shoot there and didn't have our wedding so I don't know about the rest. They have a nicer beach but no pool and they are a bit further away. They have a website and facebook page (they ended up using some of our pictures in their brochure and TV spot after permission of course) http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=58886311697#/group.php?v=wall&gid=58886311697 Hope this helps J Hi Jovelyn,

To think you want your weddng private but how can you do that if the owner is greedy they are accepting day tour despite your booking. And the food you pay for extra 25% was not serve????? HOW RUDE I hate people like that. JB dont worry Karma is hitting them one way or another. This review help a lot.

We rented the place our for a wedding and booked every option they offered (even the ones we probably were not going to use) On our way in to the resort we talked to some of the personnel and they mentioned that we had to be very careful with the owner and management because they had a reputation of taking advantage of the situation and ripe you off. We didn't believe them at the time but we learned our lesson. - They came up with strange charges although we had booked all inclusive - They would calculated things in their advantage when it worked for them but when it was in outs it was the the agreed price. - When they couldn't offer what was agreed upon they didn't offer alternatives and just let it go even when you paid for it. - They booked day visits while we had it exclusive and were not even apologetic about it. - But the worse was that the cut the food budget in half and didn't serve all the food. We paid for 25% more people then were there but we had empty trays. According to the personnel they we told not to serve more. We also told that owner on other wedding would keep half of the food behind and then when there was no food left would sell their own food. There were more issues and I have to say the owner cannot be trusted. I was very disappointed since we had paid a premium just to avoid all these issues and they were petty and greedy I was very disappointed in them. All in all I like the location and it is beautiful but If I had known all these issues I would not have done it and gone to another resort.

We rented out the whole place, though, I don't know how much it was. The place is amazing and very tranquil. The small villas are neat, comfortable, and well-designed. I like the bathrooms, too, it was like taking a shower in the open which was kind of liberating, in a way =). The beach is not as great as you would think it is. We did not consider swimming in the sea 'coz it was merely impossible. You will find yourself with a lot of cuts and a lot of pain if you do swim. Other that, Bali Bali is worth your money and I totally recommend it. My sister had her 18th birthday celebrated here. We rented out the whole place, though, I don’t know how much it was.

I love to hear proposal from the resort manager himself. We are expecting 65-80 heads on the wedding day. I try contacting them through their website and still waiting for them to reply. The plan wedding will be held next year probably March. Godbless Bali Bali.. Jettabamo UAE My friend recommend this resort for destination wedding.
