Since launching into the consumer market in August 2013, LuxuryEscapes.com has won the hearts of avid travellers by offering unique high-end accommodation packages that afford everyday Australians the opportunity to holiday like kings and queens at a fraction of the cost.

For us, the key to the trip was to give our guests the chance to experience the Luxury Escapes offering, whilst exploring the stunning surrounds of our accommodation, Pan Pacific Nirwana.

Set over 103 hectares of manicured gardens with stunning views of the magnificent Indian Ocean and Bali’s iconic Tanah Lot temple, Pan Pacific was the perfect setting for a Bali holiday with the luxury escapes twist!

So, how do you ensure that eight journalists, whose jobs are to travel the world, get the experience of a lifetime in just four days? Easy…ish.
