Do not know them. I checked their whois data on Better Whois: The WHOIS domain search that works with all registrars. and this is what it says;

Registrant: Island Storm Communications, Ltd P.O. Box 3274 Road Town, Tortola 000001 VG Domain name: BALIHOTELS.COM Administrative Contact: Island Storm, Communications dns@islandstorm.com P.O. Box 3274 Road Town, Tortola 000001 VG 800-359-2254

Which doesn't sound like a local agent to me!

I've already used them and they have sent a confirmation but I am a little worried because eveyrthing is booked out over Xmas on Bali.
I'll ring the Hotel and check. They claimed to have bookings set aside so aI hope it works out.

See: Bali Hotels - terms of use
There are a few sites all showing CV. Informatika but I suspect all from the same agent. I figure balihotels.com is tun by someone who has never even been to Bali and simply gets a commission from CV. Informatika. Thing is, I can not find CV. Informatika themselves on the web. I suspect it is legit, but with very little (think none) insurance / guarantee.

Hi Mark,
I actually rang the hotel (Barong Hotel Kuta) and they confirmed the booking and reservation from Balihotels.com and had all the details.

I suspect Balihotels.com is run by an expat married to an Indoneisan or has an Indonesian working there as the email confirmation from them was signed Mb Dini
Thanks for your research mate.
The early Xmas was because I may be too busy later as I have just bought a new house in Oz and will be moving over Xmas New Year. So hope the new year brings good things for you and your family matey.
