Most people who come to Bali want to see and enjoy its arts and cultures, fabulous nature’s views, nice beaches, friendly people, pure relaxation and some for business. The main tourist hub is in the southern triangle formed by Sanur, Kuta and Nusa Dua. For those who prefer the comforts of home and the relaxation of the beach, Sanur is a good starting place. If you are a wild and crazy type of person, then stay at Kuta or Legian. For those searching for a place to run away from the typical party scene of Kuta – Legian strip, Nusa Dua and Jimbaran serve up a more relaxing ambience dedicated to family travellers.
Choosing accommodation is a tough one! And it’s even harder for parents travelling with little kids. Staying in a hotel with your children can be enough to frazzle any parent. Close quarters with not much to do and neighbours on the other side of the wall can be a recipe for disaster. Especially if the kids get loud and restless.
There is a myriad of accommodations dedicated to families on travel. Whether it be by the beach, surrounded by natural vistas or hidden with classic architecture, from five-star luxury hotels to budget accommodation with just a few dollars a night, any accommodation in Bali will offer something to remember.
