Bali is one of the small islands that make up the archipelago of Indonesia. This particular island is a confusing mix of tourism and local culture. There are parts of the island that still remain virtually untouched, but then there are other parts, like Kuta that have a real intensive level of tourism (mainly Australians), with a very Americanised culture.
If you are going to Bali, I would recommend the resort of Sanur, again it is quite ‘touristy’, but there is still some local charm to be found. If you are looking for peace and quiet, then Sanur is preferable to Kuta.

Bali is a perfect destination for those looking for some peace and quiet in beautiful, sunny surroundings.
Advantages: Fantastic Disadvantages: long way away!
...We chose to stay in Sanur (south of Denpasar airport) in the Hotel Sanur Beach (4*). We took a taxi from the airport which was extremely cheap and I would recommend this over prebooking an expensive transfer as the Balinese were very friendly and helpful. Sanur is the perfect beach destination in Bali, it's a lot quieter than Kuta and not as exclusive as Nusa Dua. There are numerous craft shops, stalls and cafes along the streets of Sanur and not ... ...do, but I would recommend Sanur for a relaxing, chilled-out break. The food in the big hotels was very good, but a lot more expensive than the restaurants along the streets -which appeared clean and we encountered no tummy problems. If you like colour and fabric you will be in heaven for shopping. Sarongs, batik, kites and wooden carvings are everywhere in Sanur, but you have to be prepared to haggle! Take an extra suitcase to stock up on souveneirs!

Advantages: Peaceful and less hassle Disadvantages: See above; but it depends on what you want
This is a follow-up to Scam in Kuta.
It rather scared me out of the region, or at least put me off Kuta for a while. Headed for somewhere quiet, and found that somewhere in Sanur; and bliss in comparison.
Stayed at the Santai Hotel, which has a fantastic vegetarian restaurant incorporated into it; Kafe Jali Tawa, the food is just marvellous.Its also got an Internet centre on site. All in all, very laid back and environmentally friendly. Just what ... ...There's a marvellous stretch of beach, which has a boardwalk running the length, although a little broken in some places, and very little hassle; and the little was pretty friendly. A great place to relax and unwind for a few days. Not, a tremendous amount to do, although the night market is well worth a visit; and you can always pop into one of the many big hotels, just to see how the other half live.
I have to say that i prefer it as a base, rather ...

Advantages: lots to do,spectacular scenery,good seafood,beautiful beaches Disadvantages: hassled to buy things, coral was dead so snorkelling not great
Lovely beaches but not as quiet as I expected or I was told. I went during the christmas period where business is very slow for the locals so everyone was desperate to sell you something or get you to go on a day trip.This is good when your are wanting to sightsee and there are many things to see and do in Bali but not so good if you can not even lie on the beach for half an hour. it was an absolutely fantastic and interesting experience and the ... ...about their religion,culture.Be warned that you will be taken to many different shops no matter if you go with a local guide or the hotel guide.One local guide, named Tarzan(yes for real!) was a real pleasure to spend days with and nights drinking in the bar he worked in, he is worth asking around for. Beautiful place, seeing the rice fields, temples in particular the water temple is a must see where people clense themselves from illness. With the ...

For us Sanur struck a balance between the brashness of Kuta and Nusa Dua where we had heard there was not much to tempt you out of the cocoon of your hotel complex. The beach at Sanur is excellent – all four km of it -and offers every type of water sport under the sun –snorkelling, water skiing, wind surfing and para sailing. Sanur is not for those who want a hectic night life although there are plenty of bars and restaurants if you tire of eating ... ...other parts of Bali from Sanur although I have to say that road safety does not seem to figure highly in the Balinese personality. We were also told that cycling is good as the roads are flat – we never put it to the test – partly due to the heat but more so due to the pot holes and other road users! ...

Advantages: Great beach location, facilities and staff that will become your friends! Disadvantages: Very quiet, nothing for children
Visiting Bali for the 1st time, as a family for Christmas, La Taverna was booked 'blind' from the internet but what a find.
Right on Sanur's golden beaches the complex is a mixture of bungalow units and some larger 2 floor suites. All rooms were perfectly clean, made up daily with well stocked mini-bar, linen and much needed Air-con.
The on site restaurant was one of the best and most reasonably priced in the whole of Sanur, by the 2nd day we new the staff by name and the service was informal but excellent, like the food. The choice of food was good and meals could be taken in the main restaurant or on the beach for lunch and dinner with entertainment provided on selected nights.
La Taverna has its own private beach area on which to relax and a small swimming pool also. The private beach (one of the only ones on the entire beach ...
Advantages: Beauty nature, bargainable price, multicultural societies. Disadvantages: Some prices are relatively high, english language ability.
I've been to Bali three times in my life. And I must suggest you to go there! =) First of all, mentioning beach, Bali has a lot of beautiful beaches, including Kuta beach, Legian beach, Sanur beach and many more. It is well-known in Bali for spending time watching sun-being-set in the mouth of the coast. It was wonderful. The seas are somehow blue, reflecting the meaning of the real sea, what should it be. Second, the shopping center. It is growing everyhwere, with some international brands take participation. Third, the place to stay. It is very easy in Bali to find out the place to stay, even for a night only. Hotels, ranging from 1-star until 7-star are there to serve you, with good and acceptable standard. Four, the society. Bali is known as one international island in Indonesia, and of course, English language is likely to be spoken ...

Advantages: good cultural experience Disadvantages: hair raising journey by mini bus
I stayed in Bali last year with my husband and two kids as part of a round the world trip. Although we were staying in Sanur we decided to go on a trip to Ubud to see the legendary Legong dancing. The dancing takes place in the ruins of Ubud Palace in the dark and is extremely dramatic. The town of Ubud itself is quite scruffy but this was more than compensated for by the magic of the ruins and the dancing. It was pretty packed by the time we got there and it would be a good idea to get there early to ensure a good view. There are plenty of places in Ubud to eat before the dancing and we ate like kings for £16 for the four of us including drinks.Despite the terrible driving by the mini bus driver it made a great change from the relatively Westernised surroundings of our hotel in Sanur and gave us a good insight into Balinese culture. ...
