hrm... stayed at nusa 2 resort while i was there... 6 star... terrific place!!!! great room, private beach, and great morning buffet breakfast!!! (well it cost USD25-included in the package if you're staying there)... haha they've got the best fruit juices ever!!!

one food that i remembered was babi giling (sry to the muslim pals)... it's like our bbqed pork but just more yummy!!!! kuta is the shopping place with all the shops and all but if you wanna have a good deal buy at those temple area there... they're selling the same stuff just tonnes cheaper cause not many tourist in the area...

if you're into traditional shows and stuff i think there are daily shows of their myth thingie... (forgot what it's called already)... caution... no factory visits!!!! the last i went had the 1/2 day tour and what happened was temple temple and factory factory... everything's expensive and the food sucks big time!!!!

try to get your own tour guide there... they're always with a jeep and such and they'll bring you around the full day!!! if you're into adventure then beach activities are really fun!! try para-sailing... it's breath taking!!!

bring both.... hard rock and places like that it's easier with USD... but rupiah will be best while you're spending on the streets and such..

and must go for the spa..... they usually have got packages one... and of course you must bargain lar.. got mine at USD30... balinese massage + lulur + flower bath + aromatherapy thingie.... hehe one caution though.. you'll be completely naked XD

hmm, IMO, you're already letting the terrorist win by letting fear take over you. remember, they are called terrorist for a reason, and that is to put terror into people.

and yes, i felt safe in Bali



bro, use the quote function next time. keeps things organised

erm, i went there to have a good time, not to think of my death?

and yes, the things in Bali is cheap. go back a few pages and read what traveler posted

How's Club Med bali, anyone been there before?

just came back from Bali on Sunday. Spend 5D there!! Awesome!! Things are cheap, and food is good if you know where to look. Not a lot of tourists. According to the locals, their business are slow, so they are desparate to sell their goods.

I went to Bali in June last year, 3 months before the restaurant bomb in Kuta (I had a dinner in that restuartant during my trip!! Scaring!! )

Bali is worth to go, everything's cheap there! Food is delicious, hotel is big, spa is good, beach is long and white! Hotels along the newly developed tourist area Tanjung Benoa are nice, nice one includes Conrad, Oasis and Aston. Hotels in the Nusa Dua are more grand, and some with breathtaking cliff view, like Nikko, Bali Cliff..etc.

But I heard some people said if a not-yet-married couple go to Bali will definitely break up! So, bf-gf want to go to Bali for a romantic vacation, better wait until after getting married...

Went to Bali a few years ago. Spend close to a week there. I stayed at the resort enclase of Nusa Dua instead of staying at the Kuta strip.

I love the island and the people. The not to be missed site is Tanah Lot during sunset, breathtaking

musangpulut, mine to tell where you stay?

I trying to look for a package that airticket n accomodations is included.
Anyone know where can find it?

I went there last May. It was my 2nd time there. Burn out only RM500 for food,3 star hotel,transportation,rent a surf board and a bloody party at 66 club.

I wont go to Nusa Dua coz its very expensive for me.
Want a cheaper place..then go Kuta or Legian Beach.

Its a great place to surf.

3. Tanah Lot ( This is a must. very scenic)RM20
4. Mt.Kintamani (Volcano. Dont eat there..very expensive)RM4 per person
5. Monkey Temple Uluwatu
6. Surf <---the best part
