There he is! This is Bill Katz's picture of me somewhat ineptly trying to photograph the runners at the start.
That's William Varhue, our second-place finishers, at about the two-mile mark.
These are our two female finishers, Deborah Chessari and Lynda Jaeger, at about the two-mile mark. Bill took this photo.
That's Chester Lau, also at about the two-mile mark.
This is Bill Katz's photo of Chester with about two miles to go.
Here is our race winner, Kevin Markowski, coming in to the finish in front of the crematory at Cedar Hill Cemetery.

PHOENIX – Ryan Vogelsong will see the hand surgeon when he returns home next week and it's possible he'll have the pins removed from his broken right pinkie finger.
He also should receive a more detailed timetable for when he might return to the Giants rotation.
The club transferred Vogelsong to the 60-day disabled list on Saturday to create a 40-man roster spot for infielder Tony Abreu, but that paper move won't delay Vogelsong's return. He's now eligible to be activated July 20 – the second game back from the All-Star break.
"It would be pretty amazing if I could come back that fast," he said.
He's crossing his fingers – the ones on his left hand, anyway – that the pins are doing the job and his finger, which was pretty well crushed when he was hit by a pitch May 20, is healing properly. If so, then it's possible be could return before Aug. 1. (The initial diagnosis of four to six weeks was a bit ambitious, it turns out.)
In the meantime, Vogelsong is learning to do things left-handed and shaving is not among them. He decided to make life a bit easier and just grow a beard.
Giants manager Bruce Bochy said he took out Madison Bumgarner in the sixth with a pitch count of 87 Saturday night because it was "really hot, really muggy" in the dugout and he thought the left-hander might have gotten gassed running the bases in the top of the inning.
[INSTANT REPLAY: Giants find scoring touch]
Bumgarner said that wasn't the case. (Other than Chad Gaudin the other day, it's hard to remember a pitcher admitting he was gassed.) He just said he started to miss spots after doing a credible job of throwing to all four quadrants of the strike zone over the first five innings.
Whenever the Giants can lighten the load on one of their starting pitchers, it's never a bad idea. That's a benefit in a blowout win, and Bochy took advantage of it.
Bumgarner was due for this one. He had gotten a total of two runs of support over his previous three starts. He entered with an average run support of 3.00, which ranked as the sixth lowest among NL pitchers.
I mentioned this in the Instant Replay, but Gregor Blanco's outfield assist (on Cody Ross trying to go first to third on a single) was just the fifth by a Giants outfielder this season.
That's the fewest in the majors.
If you're arguing that Blanco should stay in center field when Angel Pagan returns, I'm not going to pick a fight with you.
Andres Torres said yes, Miguel Montero brushed him on the shoulder on that play at the plate in the second inning. But when umpire Greg Gibson called him safe, he sure as heck wasn't going to stick around and bear witness.
Gerardo Parra, by the way … wow. Let's just say the Giants would have more outfield assists if he were playing anywhere out there.
It's a good night when the Brandons combine for seven hits.
Mssrs. Belt and Crawford kept the line moving in the lower half of the lineup. Andres Torres drew a key walk and came back from an 0-2 count to hit a sacrifice fly before the Giants broke the game open, too.
Crawford is back at .292 after his four-hit night. I don't think he needs to hit .330 with the likes of Jean Segura and Troy Tulowitzki to make the NL All-Star team. Remember, Bruce Bochy gets to name the reserves. But the higher he can keep that average, the easier it will be for Bochy to justify finding a place for him on the squad.
I look forward to catching up with scouting director John Barr once things calm down to hear about all the players the club drafted. One name that stood out to me from Day 3 was Jonah Arenado, a high school third baseman from El Toro, Calif. – and the younger brother of Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado.
It's hard to find a better draft story than the Diamondbacks and what they did with their 34th-round pick. Uplifting stuff, there.

Witherspoon won the best actress Academy Award in March for her role as June Cash in "Walk The Line." Phillippe was in the ensemble cast of the best picture winner, "Crash." He's currently featured in the World War II film "Flags of Our Fathers."
The couple married in 1999, the same year they co-started in the movie "Cruel Intentions."

All Rise...
So what do Alyssa Milano's bosom and alien plant life have in common? Judge David Johnson has the answer for you!
Editor's Note
Our reviews of The Outer Limits: Season One, Volume One (published June 27th, 2007), The Outer Limits: Season Two (published September 30th, 2003), and The Outer Limits: Season One (published October 15th, 2002) are also available.
The Charge
There is nothing wrong with your computer monitor.
Opening Statement
MGM has released a big-ass boxed set of episodes from The Outer Limits: The New Series. For all your cable-quality alien/ android/ time travel/ mutation/ death/ sex needs threaded with science fiction, you'd be hard pressed to find a more fulfilling offering.
Facts of the Case
In 1995, Showtime resuscitated the early '60s science fiction anthology series The Outer Limits. This new vision preserves the encapsulated storytelling format—each 45-minute episode brings a different story, starring barely recognizable celebrities. And, of course, this being pay-channel produced, you'll be getting edgier material: nudity, blood and guts, profanity…they can all be found in the shows in trace amounts. What binds all these episodes together—indeed, the entire series—is its alliance to science fiction. From fantasy science fiction (aliens and such) to hard science fiction (nanomachines and genetic mutation), The Outer Limits: The New Series covers the spectrum.
This anthology contains six discs, each of which is also available solo: Aliens Among Us, Mutation and Transformation, Time Travel and Infinity, Death and Beyond, Fantastic Androids and Robots, and Sex and Science Fiction.
The Evidence
Aliens Among Us
• "Quality of Mercy"
• "Afterlife"
• "The Grell"
• "Relativity Theory"
• "Alien Shop"
• "Beyond the Veil"
The Nutshell
Mutation and Transformation
• "The New Breed"
• "Descent"
• "The Joining"
• "Double Helix"
• "The Gun"
• "The Inheritors"
The Nutshell
My favorites are "The Joining" because of some great, gross makeup
effects and "The Inheritors," as it's just a nice, feel-good little
tale. On the bottom rung, "Double Helix" leaves much to be desired
because of an overwrought climax that you can see coming a mile away. And
"Descent" is just silly.
Time Travel and Infinity
• "A Stitch in Time"
• "Tribunal"
• "Gettysburg"
• "Time to Time"
• "Déjà vu"
• "Patient Zero"
The Nutshell
Death and Beyond
• "The Second Soul"
• "The Other Side"
• "New Lease"
• "Essence of Life"
• "Human Trials"
• "Black Box"
The Nutshell
Fantastic Androids and Robots
• "I, Robot"
• "The Hunt"
• "Resurrection"
• "The Camp"
• "Glitch"
• "Small Friends"
The Nutshell
Sex and Science Fiction
• "Caught in the Act"
• "Bits of Love"
• "Valerie 23"
• "The Human Operators"
• "Skin Deep"
• "Flower Child"
The Nutshell
Taken as a whole, I think this is a great set for (a) fans of the series and (b) fans of science fiction. The majority of the stories are well written and well acted, and boast some great twist endings. Yeah, there are some duds here as well, but overall, a very good boxed set.
Each disc comes with a documentary unique to the specific subject matter and a general documentary about the show itself. These bonuses are about 10 minutes long and feature interviews with the show's makers. The "Sex and Science Fiction" and "Time Travel and Infinity" discs feature shorter, individualized documentaries for each included episode. Cast members and crew are interviewed on these bonuses.
The episodes are shown in their original aspect ratio, fullscreen. The video quality is fairly disappointing, with multiple episodes suffering from grit and grain. Even with some of the poorer transfers, the budget CGI is still laughable in some moments (specifically, any scene featuring a spaceship). The Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo mix is serviceable.
The Rebuttal Witnesses
True fans of the show may want to wait instead for the one-would-think inevitable releases of the complete seasons. As yet I haven't found any news about these releases. Until then, this set is your best bet for your Outer Limits fix.
Closing Statement
There's an awful lot of science fiction to be had here. Sure, not all episodes are classics, but there is enough good stuff to satiate fans of the series and fans of creative storytelling.

The next 24 hours? It's all mental
PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Penguins have less than 24 hours to find out just how costly their 5-3 victory over the Washington Capitals was Friday night.
The Capitals have the same, painfully short period of time to find out if they are starring in the next chapter of their franchise's grisly playoff horror show.
Both teams face major challenges in regrouping mentally as a crucial fifth game looms Saturday in this Eastern Conference semifinal series, which includes the rare playoff occurrence of games on back-to-back days.
The Penguins may be without their best defensemen, Sergei Gonchar, who was lost after a controversial knee-on-knee hit by Washington star Alexander Ovechkin late in the first period. The Capitals, meanwhile, must rebound after blowing a 2-0 series lead, knowing their superhuman rookie netminder Simeon Varlamov sprung a leak for the first time this postseason.
As if this series needed any more drama.
Whatever happens Saturday in Washington, it's hard to imagine that the outcome won't be impacted in some way by Ovechkin's hit on Gonchar with 5:05 left in the first period. Ovechkin was bearing down on Gonchar, who tried to spin away from the Caps star. As he did, Ovechkin stuck out his right knee slightly and caught Gonchar flush on his right knee. Gonchar remained sprawled on the ice in obvious pain, even as the puck went up ice during the delayed penalty call.
"We're still evaluating where he's at," Pittsburgh coach Dan Bylsma said after the game. "It was an injury that he couldn't play with tonight. Our doctors are still looking at him and taking care of him."
Much of the discussion leading up to Saturday will be the hit, and no doubt, by the time you read this, league officials will have made a decision about whether or not to pursue supplemental discipline. It will be a shock if Ovechkin is suspended, even if many of the Penguins players were incensed by the hit.
"That's three games in a row where he's out there trying to hurt guys," Pittsburgh defenseman Brooks Orpik said.
Still, the NHL's goal-scoring leader for the past two seasons has no history of dirty plays.
That said, it will be a significant surprise if Gonchar plays Saturday night, and his loss has the potential to reshape the final three games of this series. It wasn't until Gonchar returned to the lineup in the second half of the regular season that the Penguins turned their season around and looked like Stanley Cup contenders. On this night, he ripped a power-play goal past Varlamov to tie the game at 1 early in the first period; he logs big minutes playing against opposing teams' top forward units."I think in terms of replacing Sergei Gonchar, you don't get to replace [No.] 55, but we have depth at the defensive position for a reason, this occasion," Bylsma said. "I think our team knows how to play whether we have a full lineup or whether we have to replace an injury like this. And I think our team will be confident going forward that we can do it and we don't have to change something or do something miraculously."
If Gonchar cannot play, look for Philippe Boucher to move into the lineup.
After the game, Ovechkin seemed genuinely remorseful about the hit on his fellow countryman.
"Yeah, probably was knee-on-knee, but like I tried to hit him with my shoulder and he just move left," the Russian forward said. "I was disappointed, too."
Ovechkin insisted he didn't want to hurt Gonchar. "It's not my play," he said.
This marked the second game in a row Ovechkin has seen the level of his play dip. He did not score for the first time in the series and registered only two shots on net. Remember Game 2 in Washington when he had three goals and 12 shots?
"Alex is only human. He can't be unbelievable every night," Washington coach Bruce Boudreau said. "If you take the analogies of baseball players, they don't hit home runs all the time. They can go eight games and then they'll get three and everyone's back on the bandwagon. Alex is a good player. He's a great player. He just had one of those nights where he's not going to get three goals."
If Ovechkin has been "mortalized," his counterpart in the hockey god department, Sidney Crosby, continues to lead the Penguins. He scored the game-winner early in the third period and added an assist. Both players have eight points in the series.
The problem for Boudreau is, he's suddenly got a team full of humans who need to regain their otherworldly form and not much time in which to engage such a transformation.
Norris Trophy candidate Mike Green did make a nice play that led to Washington's second goal, but Boudreau acknowledged there were a couple of defensive "gaffes." Most troubling, though, was the sudden deflation of Varlamov.
He was beaten five-hole from well out by Gonchar's shot that tied the game at 1 and then whiffed on a long Ruslan Fedotenko wrist shot that glanced off his catching glove and toppled into the net to give the Penguins a 3-1 lead in the first period. Later, when the Caps had closed to within one goal, Varlamov couldn't control a weak Maxime Talbot shot from the left side with 5:14 left in the third to restore the Penguins' third two-goal lead of the game.
Game 4 marked the first time in the series the Penguins had a two-goal lead at all, a testament to Varlamov's stellar play.
"He struggled. Again, he's human. He had a bad game," Boudreau said of his netminder. "When you look at it, it's his 10th game, I think, in the playoffs, and arguably there were four soft goals out of the five. But he'll bounce back. He's a real competitive guy."
Washington captain Chris Clark, who scored his first goal of the postseason Friday, said the Caps are still committed to Varlamov.
"If he gets it all out of him in one game, that's great," Clark said. "It happens. Everybody has an off night."
Boudreau made perhaps the boldest lineup move of this postseason. After Game 1 of the opening round, he yanked veteran netminder Jose Theodore and replaced him with the untested Varlamov, who responded by going 6-3 with a 1.64 GAA and .942 save percentage heading into action Friday.
The standing joke in the Caps' locker room has been that Varlamov, who speaks no English, has no sense of the pressure he should be facing. If that was the case, it is no longer.
Boudreau will go back to Varlamov in Game 5, but one wonders how long the leash will be if the Penguins get to him early. Not that giving up the first goal is a bad thing since the team that has scored first in this series has lost all four games.
This also marked the first game of the series in which Varlamov did not outplay his counterpart, Marc-Andre Fleury.
For the second game in a row, the Caps opened the contest by scoring on their first shot of the game. On Friday, it was Nicklas Backstrom, who beat Fleury with an eminently stoppable shot from the left side. Yet Fleury bounced back and did not allow the Caps to get up by two goals, robbing Sergei Fedorov with a glove save off a nice pass by John Erskine.
Varlamov did not provide such support for his teammates, and the "bend but don't break" theory of goaltending so important in Game 4 will be equally crucial as the clock quickly ticks away before Game 5 on Saturday night.

From: Gonzalez, John
To: Sheridan, Phil; Fitzpatrick, Frank
Subject: Time out
Men's ice hockey is under way and a lot of local fans are complaining that the Olympics are messing up the pro season in general and the Flyers' momentum in particular. (I hadn't noticed the NHL is on break.)
I'm more inclined to watch Olympic hockey than an out-of-market NHL game anyway, so I don't mind this little pro puck pause. How do you two feel about putting the NHL's regular season on hold?

Utahns in baseball: C.J. Cron hits first career MLB homer; former BYU slugger Matt Carson catches fire in Columbus
Carson is now batting .316 on the season, with three home runs, 13 RBIs and 22 runs scored. However, has hit his stride of late. The right fielder is batting .433 over the past 10 games. He's also hit two home runs, while driving in seven runs and scoring 11 more in that span.
Stephen Fife (Utah), Albuquerque (Los Angeles Dodgers): Allowed six hits and two runs in three innings, picking up a no-decision in the Isotopes' 8-4 win at El Paso on Saturday.
The Ute alum was sent back down to Albuquerque on Monday after making a spot start in the Dodgers' rotation last Sunday.
Brandon Lyon (Taylorsville H.S.), Salt Lake (Los Angeles Angels): Allowed five hits, one walk and one run in 3 1/3 innings in four separate appearances throughout the week. Lyon allowed three hits and a run, picking up a loss in the Bees' 6-5 loss at Sacramento on Sunday.
The righty is 0-4 on the season, but boasts a 2.40 ERA in 17 appearances this season.
Tyson Brummett (Spanish Fork H.S.), Chattanooga (Los Angeles Dodgers): 1-1, 1.32 ERA in two starts during the week for the Lookouts. The righty fired seven shutout innings, allowing five hits and striking out four, as Chattanooga defeated Pensacola 7-3 on Tuesday.
Brummett then allowed five hits and three runs (two earned) in 6 2/3 innings Sunday, picking up a loss in the Lookouts' 4-2 defeat at the hands of Huntsville.
Brummett is now 3-3 on the season, with a 0.83 ERA in seven starts with Chattanooga. Opposing hitters are batting just .198 against him.
Parker Morin (Utah), Northwest Arkansas (Kansas City Royals): Five hits, one double and two RBIs in 16 at-bats during the week. The catcher went 3-for-5 with a double and an RBI in the Naturals' 9-1 victory over Springfield on Friday.
Morin is batting just .235 over his last 10 games, but went 5-for-9 at the plate in his last two games.
Matt Neil (BYU), Montgomery (Tampa Bay Rays): Allowed five hits and two runs in three innings, as the Biscuits picked up a 6-3 loss at Mississippi on Saturday.
Montgomery is now 1-2 on the season, with a 7.64 ERA. He's 0-2 in three starts with a 10.45 ERA since moving into Montgomery's starting rotation on April 28.
Braeden Schlehuber (Viewmont H.S.), Mississippi (Atlanta Braves): Four hits, one double, one RBI and one runs in 12 at-bats during the week. Schlehuber went 3-for-5 at the plate on Wednesday, helping the Braves past Mobile 5-3.
He's batting .224 on the season, with two home runs and seven RBIs.
Matt Spring (Dixie State), Portland (Boston Red Sox): One hit and three RBIs in seven at-bats over the week. Spring drove in three runs in the Sea Dogs' 13-12 win over New Hampshire on Sunday, hitting a key sacrifice fly in the bottom of the ninth to tie the game at 12. The sac fly happened in the middle of a 4-run rally, in which Portland overcame a 12-9 deficit entering the final inning.
Keenyn Walker (Judge Memorial H.S.), Birmingham (Chicago White Sox): Placed on 7-Day disabled list. Batting .143 in 19 games. Walker last played on May 4.
Chris Capper (BYU), South Bend (Arizona Diamondbacks): Remains on the 7-Day disabled list. Has yet to appear in a game with the Silver Hawks this season.
Taylor Cole (BYU), Dunedin (Toronto Blue Jays): Allowed eight hits and three runs (two earned) in the Blue Jays' 6-3 victory over Clearwater on Wednesday. Cole struck out four batters in the win — a season low for him.
The righty is 3-0 with a 2.50 ERA for Dunedin.
Jake Hannemann (BYU), Kane County (Chicago Cubs): Six hits, two RBIs and five runs scored in 22 at-bats over the week. The former BYU star also stole two bases.

A Dublin Disappointment
Given the glowing reviews posted pre'04, we decided to try this out for our family vacation. Our party of 5 (2couples and a single) booked 3 rooms. Upon arrival, the couples rooms seemed fine, but the single was a dark cell at the top of the first flight of stairs, literally no room for an occupant plus a bag...let alone for a 70 year old widow. We were told by the staff-person present that no other rooms were available, so we asked for a recommendation of a place to go to find a more suitable room.
We have yet to find that address...after asking for clarification 3 times. Luckily we found another hotel on our own. ..that was problem#1 and an omen of things to come.
Over the course of our stay:
1. A place specifically recommended for Easter Dinner by a staff member was closed, though I had asked them to check weeks in advance.
2. A promised space to safely park our rental car had been over-promised to other guests, forcing us to park on the street ($$$).
3. Though breakfasts are generous, the staff could not keep up with the volume of guests. If you need to be somewhere in less than an hour, forget it.
4. The staff over the Easter weekend was generally pleasant but not at all helpful in recommending restaurants or sites to see.
Kilronan is not worth the hype...go to Longfields a few blocks down.
Great location!
Chose Kilronan House because of the reviews on this website! The location was great - 3 mins walking distance to St Stephens Green - just as well as they have some major road works in dublin just now!
Beds were amazingly comfy - now I understand the fuss! Breakfast was fantastic - sadly had an early departure on our last day so missed it, and it couldnt be provided at that time, although noticed others got continental in room, but we werent offered that :( Recommendations for pubs and food were perfect. It was also the first week of smoke-free pubs - brilliant! hope it comes here soon!
Over-rated, under-good
I think this is a case of people staying at such lousy places that the first place they stay that isn't a hovel seems like heaven. The rooms were okay, but a double bed isn't a double bed here, but two twins pushed together, with blankets and sheets that don't really fit. The shower was about 2.5 feet square; try turning around in that space. The food wasn't very good, just lots of it. The staff was friendly, unless you had a problem and then they weren't very helpful. We rented a car and asked if we could park in the driveway (there is lots of vandalism in Dublin), and they were all smiles when we asked. But that night, they had no room in the driveway afterall (I had asked twice and reminded them again that day) and weren't very apolegetic at all. There is lots of noise from the street and parking lots all around. Finally, one of our party was offered a room that was literally 6' X 10' (the door wouldn't open all of the way because of the bed!), and they wouldn't change the room or offer a refund. Keep looking for places (Longfields!); you can easily find a better one.
Wouldn't rave about it
We decided to stay here to treat ourselves even though it was a bit pricey. Unfortunately we were offered the small, dark room on first floor at the top of the stairs on the landing. The bathroom was tiny with the sink in the bedroom ... If they offer you this room, ask to see another one!
Wonderful Bed and Breakfast in Dublin
Kilronan House was a great bed and breakfast. We stayed for four nights with our two children (ages 14 and 15) over the Christmas holidays (2003). We all enjoyed our time here. Terry Masterson, the innkeeper, was a great help and a great host. He helped us plan our schedule while in the Dublin area and made wonderful suggestions for our tours.
Breakfast is a real treat here. There is something for everyone. We looked forward to the cheery breakfast room each morning with our coffee and orange juice. The inn is cozy and warm as are the staff. We have taken our children to Europe six times and this is one of our favorite hotels. It is in a quiet area of Dublin yet still within walking distance of all of the major sites. We will definitely stay here again!
Terry is Great!
Nice place, clean, comfortable rooms. Terry and his staff/family are great and very helpful. Breakfast was outstanding and a lot to choose from. Rooms got a little warm but could not figure out how to adjust that. It's a bit of a walk to Trinity College, Temple Bar, etc. but it's nice. Listen to Terry, Samantha, etc. They give great advice on restaurants/pubs. We loved The Barge, Pier 32, Temple Bar area.
Kilronan House, felt right at home
We stayed at Kilronan House for a long weekend and felt right at home there. The rooms are clean and fresh, with a high standard of basic requirements and ample storage facilities. The staff were excellent, really friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The guesthouse is well located, only a few mins walk to St Stephens Green
Very nice guest house
We stayed just one night at Kilronan House. It was very nice. Terry is very friendly and really tries to get a handle on your wants so he can provide advice. Our son traveled seperately and arrived early in the day, Terry made a room available to him so he could sleep until we arrived after his 8 time zone journey. The breakfast is great, quality and quantity. Don't miss The Barge, the local pub, Terry will tell you how to walk the 2-3 blocks to find it.
We loved it
Took the whole family so, needed two rooms. Stayed the first and last nights. Beautiful house; great dining.
Comfortable, convenient, and cozy
My daughter and I stayed there for 3 nights in January, 2003. The location couldn't be better. Convenient and quiet. We walked everywhere.
We had a very comfortable room, with a bright, new bathroom. The beds were comfortable, and breakfast was to die for.
I had the 'full Irish breakfast' the first morning, I ate French toast the second morning, and ordered 'half an Irish breakfast' our last morning. It was the perfect amount.
Terry is delightful and knows his wonderful city. We will stay there on our next visit to Dublin.

He was not housed at Kilmainham during his sentencing but they brought him there to be executed. He was so sick he could not walk to the end of the yard to be shot, so they lined him up near the gate. Furthermore, he could not stand, so they put him in a chair.

The stadium is home to amateur Gaelic football, otherwise known as hurling. It seats 72,500 people and is truly impressive. The field itself is 142 yards long ...

Hey! Love you plugin! I know it's beta and therefore not supported etc etc, but a heads up that the icons in the admin bar disappears in 3.5-beta2-22352 when using this plugin.
Guess it's this line in the CSS that does not work:
The "../" part won't work because the css is located at different location when using and not using BWP. And I guess it also could be because the admin css is called admin-bar.min.css and not only admin-bar.css anymore.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Cinong Amazing Service Beautiful view, attentive staff, clean November 25, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by nadia8485 Great hotel Everything about this hotel from features to services are exceptionally wonderful. Would definitely have our vacation at The Laguna again November 24, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by wilfk More than an Hotel Having stayed for 2 weeks every year for the past 15 years it never ceases to amaze my wife and I. Every visit we say it is perfect but when we return we find another stroke of genius to produce another improvement but this is only part of the picture as the staff, from the most menial to the most senior are every bit as important and they are the best without any doubt whatsoever and nothing is too much trouble and always with a genuine smile and a wish to please.5 years ago we renewed our wedding vows after 25 years and the only thing I can say it was an amazing experience and every detail was carried out perfectly by the Laguna team and we could never thank them enough. We only got back to the UK today but already plans are in hand for our next visit. November 24, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by lamchops27 Great Location Lovely resort with beautiful grounds and gorgeous beach.Rooms are spacious and well fitted out with all needs including good wifi reception.There are many swimming and dining options. Staff are all friendly,but service at certain times can be a bit slow. November 18, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by LemonPoppyseed Beautiful Hotel in Paradise I loved this hotel. From the moment I checked into the hotel I could tell I had stepped into Paradise. I had a room that overlooked the Lagoon and I also had glimpses of the ocean. The room was very spacious with a lovely balcony. I visited the breakfast buffet and that had a great variety of hot and cold food. My favourite feature of the room was the Butler..a quick phone call in the morning saw the delivery of hot coffee,tea..even espressos and cappuccinos.. My only dislike was that smoking was allowed at the pools.As a non smoker I thought there would be areas specified for smokers.Most hotels are smoke free but this property was more smoking friendly with guests walking through the hotel smoking and it didn't matter where I sat at the pool all tables had ashtrays. November 17, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by TANDLINDS Unsurpassed excellence We stayed at this hotel in November 2013 for 6 nights and will most certainly return. The staff were welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for them ...perfect service 100% The room (437) was immaculate, clean, impressive and faultless. The grounds , pools, and restaurants were in perfect condition and maintained to a high level. Sunbeds and beach beds were always available even lunchtime and mid afternoon...no early morning rush for a position in this hotel, there are sufficient sunbeds here. The location is perfect for the beach , three steps away from the hotel lawns. The beach itself is clean and manicured by staff who rake daily. Plenty of umbrellas too. We had a one hour massage each on the edge of the beach which was very professional, and soothing and reasonably priced. The butler service also was to perfection, a free service to your room which was a nice touch for that late night coffee or early morning tea before breakfast. This is just an amazing hotel to relax in, and we stay in some of the best ones on our travels; this would rate in the top three for sure. We also checked some others in the vicinity and The Laguna is well in front of the ones we saw... by a long way. Kuta is a $10 , twenty minute taxi ride away, if you want full on shopping and nightlife. We thought it better to go there as it suited and have this gorgeous hotel to relax in day by day. I could not even suggest one improvement to be made to this hotel or grounds, it was perfection 100% to us both and we could not fault it. Ha....yes one!! the breakfast bar needs to upgrade its toaster to a rotating belt one !! Now if this is my only fault to list you can see we thoroughly enjoyed our week here and are planning to return as soon as possible; we could not recommend more strongly that The Laguna is by far the best we have seen in Bali. Perfect. November 14, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by MiekeB The Quality of the service Every staff member was focused on ensuring that they provided the guests with excellent service. It may not be fair to suggest that any staff member was better than another, but we would like to make special mention of Sinta and Basuki (I am sure this isn't the correct spelling). The service they provided went far beyond what would normally be expected. November 14, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Kelvin A real luxury resort in Bali 11.7 and 11.8 two nights. Location: Nusa Dua is not far from kuta or sanur, and it's a really safe place. Resort: The resort had a private beach, swimming pool around the whole buildings. View is perfect. Service: We had a warm welcomed, they apologized when we could NOT have a upgrade sincerely, and brought us walk arround the resort and introduced to us,but when we meet other staffs they had no expression. SPG Recognition: We arrived resort late, as a platium member, the receiption said they had no suit available,even a upper level room, they're fully booking,but they promised must provided suit another day, and it was ture. Also, It dose not have a lounge.! Rooms: the standard room is small, but the suit is perfect. November 13, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ron58 This Hotel is excellent the hotel has everything you need, great staff, great swimming pools, great spa and workout facility and very good food. this only thing that I did not like was the price of mixed drinks and wine. November 12, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Saspab Very good but... Hard to fault the excellent staff....smiles all round and nothing is too much trouble for them...the only gripe in what is a great set up is the slightly shabby appearance of the rooms ie damp stains scratch marks dents etc. it certainly didn't ruin the holiday but the attention to detail is wanting November 4, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Briangoestraveling A Beautiful Resort The Laguna, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, truly lives up to its name. The service is impeccable and the aesthetics calming and refreshing. A great place to relax and be happy. October 31, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Ray1983 Hotel is very good, but the buffet was poor everything is resort is wonderful, pool is nice, beach is good, room is comfort. we had a buffet as dinner, it cost about 40USD per person and called sea food buffet, however, infact, in the buffet you get only one glass of wine or soft drink, only ice water is free and ok to refill. this is the only buffet that cannot provide enough drinks i have ever had. regarding the seafood part, there were only some small prawn, two kind of fish which are not good, octopus needs to be order seperately, they do not BBQ this without order, and the staff that doing the BBQ were not friendly at all. in all there are not much seafood you could have,when you order anything from them, it seems you are take stuff from their pocket. the all other stuff like salmon, oyster, etc, are not included in the buffet! so they cactually cannot call it a sea food buffet. the buffet was totally unworthy! bad experience at all! October 30, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by tenros wonderful relaxing holiday This is an amazing hotel on Nusa Dua beach, very peaceful and quiet with wonderful restaurants and very friendly efficient staff nothing is too much trouble will definitely stay here again. October 24, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by ScubaTim 100% Bali Smile We stayed at The Laguna Resort and Spa for 5 days and 4 nights. Each and every day was a treat and service is top-notch. Arriving 6 hours before check-in time, the staff of the hotel went out of their way to accomodate us as soon as possible, allowing us to check-in no less than 5 hours before the offial check-in time. Little details mentioned during check-in were meticulously taken care of. It's these little things take make a hotel comfortable. We hope to go back soon! I'd Recommend This Hotel to Others For: 1. Excellent service and neverending Bali smiles! October 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by esperanza85 amazing hotel its a really amazing hotel with great views and welcoming staff a really excellent spa and many places to swim and dine.. the butler service was excellent too especially mr prapto .. i disliked the fact that the restaurants dont serve "Halal" food and i think this should be condidered for muslim visitors and the beach chairs are always full October 20, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Vacationers413 Did not quite live up to the name Luxury Collection We stayed here on our honeymoon and we were very excited to hire an English speaking tour guide and see the sights in Bali. We went to the Hotel's concierge and were directed to the tour desk. We specifically requested an English speaking guide and the employee guaranteed us the guide would speak English. We then asked again to confirm that it would be an English speaking guide and were told, "absolutely." When we got in the car it became very clear the guide spoke no English. Not only did he not speak English but he had NO IDEA where he was taking us. He kept showing us maps and pamphlets asking us to point where we wanted to go. Mind you we had spent a significant amount of time selecting a tour with the employee in the hotel, but the driver was clearly unaware. We figured something out and arrived there only to be ditched by our guide because he wanted to eat dinner with his buddies. I have no idea what we saw because the guide did not speak any English so he could not offer us any information. I am not joking when I say he did not speak English, he literally knew maybe 15 words. My husband speaks 6 languages and this guide did not speak any of those languages either. In addition to deserting us when he went to eat dinner, the guide continually ran into friends of his and spent his time chatting with them. So after the trip we made a complaint to the concierge and were told that the tour desk is an independent company. (Now they wanted nothing to do with these guys). So we went to the tour desk to complain and insist that they reduce the cost as they essentially provided us with a driver not a tour guide. This was a huge ordeal because but we eventually got a manager on the phone. After much back and forth they did decrease the price slightly. It should have never gotten to that point. We should not have been lied to about whether the guide spoke English, we should not have had to deal with that guides nonsense deserting us, the guide should have known what tour we had selected instead of asking us to point to places on the map, we should not have had to argue with the tour desk. It was all insane and left a very bad taste in my mouth. We had planned to take other tours while there, but it wasn't worth the hassle. I don't fault anyone for trying to make a buck, but it was clear these guides had something else going on on the side and they were drumming up business left and right while on our tour. Their big thing was trying to get us to go to dinner at a friends restaurant despite our repeated instance that we were not looking for dinner, but we wanted to see the Hindu temples. There were a few other issues during our stay. The 2nd biggest problem was the inconsistency in the housekeeping. Some days our room had been cleaned nicely other days it seemed as though making the bed was all they did. This place is really proud of their butler service, but I didn't see any great advantage to it. There were a lot of positives and the grounds are gorgeous, but an untidy room and a battle with the tour desk are major issues that reduce the comfort level significantly. October 20, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by santri1969 Awesome Bali Nusa Dua experience We were here on a family trip to for over a week - besides an incredible Bali experience, the resort was awesome - pool, SPA, wonderful and friendly staff, great beach walk, staff did a wonderful job at check in, during the stay, good onsite restaurants, got upgraded to a 2 bedroom suite courtesy my ambassador, loved the area, beach, beachwalk, food - everything was good, highly recommended in Bali.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Karen63 Delightful stay ....again Our third visit to The Laguna this year and it continues to deliver on quality, service and amenity. Recommend to any-one looking for a relaxing and luxurious visit to Bali .Staff are delightful. Dining options remain a bit limited but plenty of good restaurants nearby. September 25, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Marina2626 Very average, definitely not Luxury The check-in took too long and the receptionist haven't given information on Wi-Fi in the rooms and breakfast. The room doesn't have tea-coffee amenities. Not kids friendly - my 10 y.o. son was not allowed in the gym for simple exercises. No kids facilities. The kids menu is unedible - we ordered pasta which was too spicy even for adults. Generally food is not good. I did go to SPA, asked for strong massage, they did very gentle one - so it was just another waste of money. September 11, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Uhh1959 This Hotel is excellent A exzellent hotel leaves nothing to be desired . Cleanliness of the rooms, the pool area, the breakfast, the spa area and the friendliness of the staff is excellent.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Srg105 Brilliant holiday! Wonderful hotel in a wonderful location. From our arrival to our departure, we felt welcome and all staff were brilliant. Hotel rooms need a bit of updating but otherwise we loved it. Not too busy and really relaxing. Food was 5 star!! Especially the seafood restaurant. The staff MAKE this hotel 5 star!.

Rated 5 out of 5 by CHRIS2009 FRIENDLY AND ALWAYS HELPFUL WE WERE WELCOMED BY STAFF IN RECEPTION AND GIVEN A WELCOME DRINK AND THEN SHOWN TO OUR ROOM WHERE THE FACILITIES OF THE HOTEL WERE EXPLAINED TO US. THE ROOM WAS SPACIOUS AND CLEAN. FORTUNATELY WE HAD A LAGOON ACCESS ROOM WHICH LIVED UP TO OUR EXPECTATIONS WITH A SMALL BALCONY A QUIET SPOT TO ENJOY. THE BUFFET BREAKFAST WAS VERY WELL VARIED AND ENJOYABLE FOR ALL TASTES. OUR ROOM WAS SERVICED QUICKLY (USUALLY WHILE AT BREAKFAST) AND ALWAYS UP TO STANDARD. WE USED THE LAGUNAS RESTAURANTS AND BARS MAINLY IN THE EVENINGS. WE HAD BOTH A LA CARTE AND BUFFET MEALS WHICH WERE ENJOYABLE AND ONCE AGAIN THE STAFF WERE ATTENTIVE WITHOUT BEING IN THE WAY. ANY REQUESTS FOR ORDERING A CAR/TAXI OR EVEN A COFFEE FOR OUR ROOM WAS DONE QUICKLY AND WITH THE MINIMUM OF FUSS. THE STAFF WHETHER THE CONCIERGE OR POOL MAN ALWAYS HAD TIME TO SAY HELLO. MAY I SAY THAT THE REGULAR CONCIERGE ALWAYS GREETED US BY OUR NAMES WHENEVER HE SPOKE TO US (GREAT MEMORY). THE MANY POOLS GIVES YOU THE CHANCE TO FIND A QUIET CORNER OR IF YOU ARE WITH CHILDREN A SAND POOL IS AVAILABLE. WE ALSO USED THE SPA FACILITIES AND WERE MOST ENJOYABLE AND RELAXING. THERE ARE SHOPS/RESTAURANTS ABOUT A 10 MINUTE WALK AWAY FROM THE HOTEL. WE STAYED AT THE HOTEL FOR A QUIET AND RELAXING 7 DAYS AND ACHIEVED OUR GOAL. WE LOOK FORWARD TO RETURNING SOON.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Jerome92 Good place to rest Golf is a big disapointment : the nearest course was closed . No previous information on that . The only available is 45 minutes far away and ridiculously expensive for what it is August 8, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Dax19 The Service Did not live up to Starwood reputation I am currently still staying in this hotel when I write this review. On the second day, which is today, I came back to the hotel room (103) with the floor still dirty, bathroom amenities not restocked, dirty glasses not replaced. I called to the butler and he reacted fast enough to remedy everything. Then somehow I casually asked what type of room is 103. I was informed that it is a Deluxe Lagoon Access. Then I told the front desk, something must be wrong because I booked for a Deluxe Studio Lagoon Access which is a bigger and more pricey room type. He promised to have his duty manager called me back in 5 minutes and I have been waiting for more than 1 hour. My conclusion is that this hotel does not reflect a Starwood reputation of preferred guest treatment. August 7, 2013
