It's hard to put your finger on any one part of Mel's place that makes it a Bali retreat, because they are everywhere and nowhere.
Like many that are missing international travel, I wanted to try a little out-of-the-ordinary staycation and see a part of Melbourne I rarely travel to.
What I can tell you is, when you are sitting in the courtyard garden amongst all of the tropical plants, perhaps with a cocktail, if you close your eyes and listen to the sounds of the beach, it could be Bali.
