Escape to Paradise: Artja Inn 2 Indonesia Awaits!
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we're about to dive headfirst into the swirling, shimmering, and sometimes slightly chaotic world of Escape to Paradise: Artja Inn 2 Indonesia Awaits! Hold on tight, because this review isn't just about the facts, it's about the feel. Let's get messy. Let's get real. Let's get… Indonesian!
First Impressions: Does Paradise Have a Ramp? (Accessibility & My Fumbling Trip Down the Hallway)
Okay, let's rip the band-aid off first: Accessibility. They say they are accessible, and I'll give them some credit. There are elevators, which is a HUGE win. And the idea is there – they've considered this stuff. But the devil, as always, is in the details. Ramps? I'm not sure I saw a ton. Navigating the hallways with luggage felt a bit like an obstacle course, if I'm being honest. So, if you're relying on a wheelchair, call ahead and confirm specifics about ramp availability, and especially bathroom access. This is one area where Artja Inn 2 could seriously up its game.
(RANT ALERT) Internet – The Lifeblood of the Modern Traveler, Or the Curse of a Crappy Connection?
Ugh, let's talk about the internet. In this day and age, no Wi-Fi can make me feel like a caveman, scrambling for a decent signal. "Free Wi-Fi in all rooms!" they shout joyfully. And mostly it's true. However, the actual strength of said Wi-Fi? Well, let's just say my video calls were occasionally punctuated by that lovely buffering circle of doom. This is a huge deal for me. I need to work! I have deadlines! So, while I appreciate the effort, the Wi-Fi needs a serious upgrade. Get it together, Artja Inn! I swear, I spent an hour the first day just trying to upload a picture for work. Talk about frustrating!
Food, Glorious Food! (And the Occasional Mystery Meat)
Okay, enough about the tech woes. Let's talk about the good stuff. The food! The dining options at Artja Inn 2 are… diverse. They have restaurants. They serve Asian Cuisine, International Cuisine, and (drumroll please) Vegetarian food! I tried the buffet one night. It was… a buffet. I'm not always a buffet person (too easy to over-eat!). But still, there was plenty. They also had an a la carte menu, which was a bit more my speed. I had a soup once that totally changed my life. Ok, maybe not, but it was pretty good.
Quick anecdote: They have a coffee shop, too. The coffee was… okay. But I'm a coffee snob. I did try the desserts. Pretty decent if I'm honest, which is good after a day of struggling.
Important Note: I'm also a fan of the 24-hour room service. A late-night snack after a long day? Yes, please! But they need to work on their presentation. My order arrived with a side of random.
Things to Do (or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Spa)
Okay, this is where Artja Inn 2 really shines. You’ve got a pool with a view. You got a sauna that made me feel like I’d been through the sun. They have a spa! A real spa with "Body wraps". Oh, yes. And I went. And I have to say, it was bliss. It felt like they scrubbed away all the stress of modern life, leaving me feeling like a brand-new person. Don't expect ultra fancy amenities. I'm not sure the decor screams "luxury," but the treatments were amazing.
Quirky Observation: The masseuse kept humming a little tune. It was… endearing. And weirdly relaxing.
Important Fact: They also have a fitness center. I, uh, didn't use it. I was too busy getting body wraps. Priorities!
Cleanliness & Safety: Keeping Germs (and My Paranoia) at Bay
Alright, let's get serious for a moment. COVID-19 hasn't exactly vanished. So, how do they do with safety? Good. They seemed to take it seriously. Daily disinfection, hand sanitizer everywhere, and staff in masks. They've put the effort in. They even have… Anti-viral cleaning products! I appreciated the attention to detail. I didn't feel unsafe.
Rooms: My Little Indonesian Sanctuary (Mostly!)
The rooms were… fine. I'll be honest, they weren't luxurious. They were, however, clean and functional. The bed was comfy, the air conditioning worked like a charm, and I had a little balcony to sit on and watch the world go by. They were non-smoking. Thank goodness. They have Coffee/tea makers! Crucial. They have Slippers! Little things matter. My room came with a complimentary bottle of water. And sometimes you just can't ask for more.
Services & Conveniences: The Good, The Bad, and the "Hmm…"
They have a laundry service, which is convenient. Also, Daily housekeeping. Amazing. The staff were friendly and helpful, mostly. They have a concierge. They have… a gift shop. Also, the facilities for disabled guests should get looked in to in my personal opinion.
- Anecdote: I needed an iron on the first day. They brought it up in a jiffy. Score!
- The "Hmm…" Moment: They offer a "car park (free of charge)." But good luck finding parking during peak season. Also, their shuttle service isn't the most reliable.
For the Kids:
I'm not traveling with kids, but they appeared to be family-friendly. There's a babysitting service, which is a plus. I believe there are kids meals available; I saw them at the buffet.
Getting Around:
Airport transfer is available. And they do have a taxi service.
Final Verdict: Should You Escape to Paradise?
Look, Escape to Paradise: Artja Inn 2 Indonesia Awaits! isn't perfect. It has its quirks. The wifi needs a serious upgrade. The accessibility could use some improvements. But if you go in with realistic expectations, you may feel good. The spa is epic. The food is generally pretty good. And the staff, they are friendly and wanting to see you have a good time.
My Final Verdict: 7.5/10, but with a strong recommendation to book that spa treatment!

Artja Inn 2: The Unfiltered Diary
(Before We Even Get There… The Pre-Trip Panic!)
Okay, so I thought I booked the flight. Double-checked. Triple-checked. Now I'm staring at a blank screen and a mounting wave of nausea. Was it Artja Inn 2, or some weirdly misspelled version? Seriously, I’m starting to doubt my own name. This whole “travel planning” thing is designed to make you a neurotic wreck, isn't it? Breathe, deep breaths… Google Maps is my ally (and also my constant source of anxiety).
(Day 1: Arrival – The Humid Embrace & The Existential Dread of Luggage)
- Morning (Jakarta Airport): Landed. Survived baggage claim (surprisingly unscathed; my usual travel mantra: "pray the airline doesn’t lose your life"). The air… it hits you like a warm, wet blanket. Instantly melted my meticulously applied makeup. Already sweating profusely. This is the good life, right? Found that grumpy-looking taxi driver, who probably hates tourists as much as I hate being late to my own life. bargaining for the price.
- Afternoon (Artja Inn 2 – the Big Reveal!): Arrived! Wow. Way more… rustic than the pictures. Actually, a bit of a disaster (I'm being generous). The "charming" balcony is hanging precariously over what appears to be a goat pen. But the staff seems nice, even if they don’t speak my language. My room key. My kingdom. My, uh, damp kingdom.
- Evening (First Taste of… Something): Found a warung (local restaurant) nearby, ordered something that looked vaguely like noodles (I’m adventurous!), and promptly regretted it. The spice level…my taste buds, they were not prepared. Tears streaming down my face. But, hey, at least the local beer was cold. And the people watching? Gold. Watched a family on motorbikes carrying an entire sofa. This is Indonesia, baby.
(Day 2: Diving Deep… Into My Fear of Fish & The Art of Haggling)
- Morning (Gili Trawangan, or, the Underwater Nightmare): The boat ride! So, I'm going snorkeling. "Relaxing," they said. "Breathtaking," they promised. I'm terrified. The ocean is a vast, mysterious void. A giant, watery unknown filled with… fish. And what if there's a shark? The life vest, a comforting hug of buoyant terror. Jumped off the boat. Didn’t drown! Saw… fish. Really colourful fish. Some… kinda scary fish. Managed not to panic and ended up liking it (a little). The coral? Absolutely stunning. Completely worth the mini-heart attack.
- Afternoon (Market Mayhem): Hit the local market. OMG, the colours! The chaos! The smells (some delightful, some… not so much). Tried to haggle for a souvenir. Failed miserably. The vendor saw me coming. I’m basically a walking, talking ATM. But I got a pretty, albeit overpriced, scarf. Worth it.
- Evening (Sunset… & Second Thoughts): Sunsets here are ridiculous. I could cry. The colours! The glow! Then I start thinking about all the things that could go wrong with my life, and the beauty seems somehow… taunting. Back to the beer.
(Day 3: The Temple Tango, the Coffee Conundrum, and A Near-Death Experience with a Scooter)
- Morning (Tirta Empul Temple - Holy Water & Spiritual Sputtering): Went to Tirta Empul Temple, a holy place where people come to bathe in spring water. It was amazing and the water was crystal clear. Tried to get "spiritual." Ended up more concerned about my rapidly approaching deadline to catch the next bus. The bus was a total adventure.
- Afternoon (Coffee Tasting… or the Caffeine Crash): Found a local coffee plantation, which turned out to be a tourist trap. The coffee itself? Amazing. The civet cat poop coffee? Well, I'm not entirely sure what I drank, but I'm pretty sure I saw the universe. The caffeine hit me like a freight train. I can't stop talking. I'm going to spend the rest of my life in Indonesia.
- Evening (Scooter Saga - Almost a Goner!): Rented a scooter. Big mistake. Huge. The roads are terrifying. The traffic is insane. I’m pretty sure I almost got run over by a truck. Screeching tires, heart pounding, life flashing before my eyes. Swore that scooter was the last time I ever willingly rode one of those contraptions. Then, maybe, I was feeling too hyped up with caffeine.
(Day 4: Bali Bliss & My Inner Critic)
- Morning (Ubud): Chased a few of the sights from my bucket list. Ubud. The rice paddies. Monkeys. The temples. So beautiful that I want to cry and take a million pictures.
- Afternoon (Yoga and The Judgy Voice in My Head): Took a yoga class. The instructor was so serene. I, however, was a flailing mess of limbs and self-doubt. My inner critic, the one that usually yells at me about my thighs, was SCREAMING. But I kept going. Slowly. It felt okay.
- Evening (The Verdict): I'm getting used to the chaos. Feeling more relaxed (at least, most of the time). The food is still a gamble, but now I'm able to eat a lot of chilli. Also there’s that incredible sunset, which I’m afraid, will be missed.
(Day 5: Departure – Farewell… For Now?)
- Morning (Farewell Breakfast, and the Return of the Existential Dread): One last breakfast, and my stomach felt like it came to terms with the local cuisine. I'm already thinking about how many towels I’ll need to buy myself to avoid my body from the inevitable sweat. So, I'm sitting here. Waiting for the taxi. Contemplating life. Indonesia, you magnificent, crazy place. I don't know when, but I'll be back. Maybe.
The Post-Trip Aftermath (aka, What No Brochure Tells You)
- The Sunburn: Still peeling. My skin is now several shades lighter and it feels like a snake.
- The Food Coma: Officially addicted to Indonesian food. My bank account, however, is not.
- The Post-Travel Blues: Already missing the chaos, the beauty, the sheer unfiltered life of Indonesia. Wishing I had stayed longer.
So, Artja Inn 2. Not perfect. Messy. But utterly, utterly unforgettable. And that, my friends, is the only kind of trip worth taking. Now if you'll excuse me, I need another coffee. And possibly a therapist.
