[00:00:00][music] [music] [music] >> This is five star this joint. It's costing, I've just found out, 250 Australian a night.

[00:00:47]Holy [ __ ] Is that ours? Or is this is private?

[00:00:59]Oh, it's bloody cold.

[00:01:02]Huh?

[00:01:04]They've even got a life boy attached to the wall of the building in case someone needs saving in here.

[00:01:13]That's a bit weird.

[00:01:19]After settling into the room, we thought we'd take a walk around the resort.

[00:01:25]And just here is [music] a spa, there's spa bath 37 degrees, I believe it gets to. It was a bloody hot.

[00:01:31]But, >> [music] >> I actually jumped in the spa and I thought it was really nice.

[00:01:35]And check out the pool here. The pool was just perfect.

[00:01:39]Have a look at the sculpture on the side of this wall of this lady.

[00:01:42]>> [music] >> It's absolutely amazing.

[00:01:46]We really enjoyed putting it here, having a beer cuz there's a spa right behind us.

[00:01:51]>> [music] >> It's a perfect setting.

[00:01:54]The pool, well, Well, nothing to say, it was [music] just perfect, just the way it was.

[00:02:03]>> [music] >> Then we decided we'd take a walk to the meditation caves. [music] I've never done meditation before, so just to go here was something new for me.

[00:02:14]But as we were [music] walking down the stairs, and have a look at the handrails going down these stairs, very unique.

[00:02:20]I'm assuming it's pre-cast concrete, [music] but I cannot confirm that.

[00:02:26]The caves themselves were just amazing, [music] well worth the visit.

[00:02:32]>> [music] >> The columns underneath here holding up uh the suspended slab was all pre-cast [music] to make it look like timber logs, and also was fascinating.

[00:02:46]Here [music] there's ponds underneath the caves, and they actually have fish inside these.

[00:02:51]And [music] so as you walk through them, the fish are scurrying around.

[00:02:55]And yeah, well worth it, like I said before, I'd come back any day.

[00:03:01]>> [music] [music] [music] >> Very scenic.

[00:03:12]Everywhere you look is very scenic.

[00:03:16]Here you can see Gift, she's doing a bit of praying to her Buddha, that's her religion, that's her thing. [music] And I hope she's enjoying it.

[00:03:25]>> [music] >> I found the walk through here really fascinating.

[00:03:30]>> [music] >> And I can tell you I will definitely be coming back again.

[00:03:35]Just have to see what happens.

[00:03:40]>> [music] >> Here was the lecture room.

[00:03:47]>> [music] >> Check this out.

[00:03:49]So they have classes here, I can only assume for meditation.

[00:03:53]>> [music] >> And um Yeah, I think [music] it's a perfect setting for such a thing.

[00:04:05]How long do you think it would take to carve an elephant out of a shrub like this?

[00:04:09]Bloody incredible, I reckon.

[00:04:11]What do you think?

[00:04:14]Yeah, it's really nice.

[00:05:07]Um nice easy walk across the bridge and they have great food there. Nice people, very cheap.
