Nusa Dua is very chilled area, some people say boring, we loved how safe and peaceful it was. Novotel is an older style hotel, heavy Balinese furniture, dark colors. Everything is clean, beautiful gardens but it is an old hotel.
I loved the huge pool, surrounded by the apartments/hotel rooms. It is a big hotel however you can let your kids wonder as you know they are safe.
The food is nice, massage is perfect. The flora and fauna are just beautiful.
The people are always smiling; nothing is too much.
No USB charger points and just their local power outlets, but you can get adapters for free from the reception.
The money exchange within the hotel was the best we saw.
At the back gate (yes, there is two entrances) there are some minimarts and cheap massage places. No restaurants though.
The beach club for us was a bit boring, nothing is really there, but an easy 5 minutes' walk or shuttle bus
