Taking it Slow: a design hotel getaway

Play Video

Sometimes, things in life align just like planets – and just as planets, it only happens once every couple of thousand years so you better grab that chance while it lasts.

Just to give you some context: Last May Alberto quit his job and I was about to complete a big project I was working on since ages. We were both stressed, exhausted and pale, so I went ahead booked us 2 flights to Bali. I didn’t overthink it, I knew it was then or never!

In the three weeks leading up to our trip, I went on an intense Instagram spree looking for cool hotspots and places to stay. I saw a picture of The Slow, went on their website and snatched the last room available. ✔tick. ( another proof that good timing is everything )

THE SLOW

Oh my – this has got to be one of the most beautiful places we’ve ever stayed at! It’s that kinda place that makes you want to turn the radio on, grab a book and forget about the world outside those walls.

The hotel is outright gorgeous! We both fell in love with it.
You should have seen me walking around our room like a crazy person and starting every sentence with “If this was our home, I would…”
Am I the only one who does that? I doubt!

We embraced the philosophy and decided to take it slow. It was the perfect time to recharge, get inspired and discuss future plans. Now the only thing we’re wondering is when do we go back?

 

 

THREE REASONS WHY I WOULD GO BACK

01. NO PLASTIC

At the Slow all the furniture and amenities are locally sourced, handpicked and environmental friendly.

02. BURRATA

I still haven’t figured out how their burrata is way better than the one I get in Italy. What’s their secret?

03. ALL THE ARTSY STUFF

Where to start? The radio, the art gallery, the art on the walls, the great book selection, the ceramics and so on. The place is filled with treasures.
