went to bali or the third time last may. stayed in all seasons hotel which is nice. have to walk abit to go to the beach though.

anyway. here's a tips for those who wanted to jalan2 around kuta but to lazy to walk. rent a bike/scooter. they cost about rm15 a day. don't worry about the police, u r ok as long as u have the helmet on and follow the road sign. don't langgar the traffic light either.. bali ain't KL. hehe.

wanted to buy cheap surfing brand stuff... go on pusing2 outside kuta abit. u'll find warehouse store selling last-season stuff (last season stuff overthere meaning this season punya in KL). they usually have crazy sale up to 70%.

original surely.. well, i damn hope so its a factory outlet for last season stuff

For Quiksilver n Roxy.. not exactly sure where it is but along the way to Denpasar I believe. There's a mall with local tourist bust station and petrol station nearby. Mooks, Stussy and No Fear are nearby oso.

for reef, its nearby matahari shopping centre.

sorry can't be more specific. u have to look for it though bcoz the road in kuta are totally messed up. try pusing2 with a rental bike. but don't wander around unless u r sure

if u got some free time u can hang out at dreamland beach. nice beach, huge wave and a bit secluded. the only down part is when climbing up to the parking ask your guide to send u there.

i dare not swim/surf here.. way too scary. hehe

never stay in secret garden and karthi myself but the design kinda dated like most budget bali hotels does. if u like modern and new design u should try all season hotel in legian. i stay there for 3 days and lovin it. but kinda far away from kuta centre (around 3 km) and a few mins walk to kuta/legian beach.

try directrooms.com to survey for hotel.

yea.. dolphin watching only in Lovina.. don't think Nusa Dua beach have sumthin like dat.. snorkeling oso dun have (never heard before)

do check properly so u won't get con. its easy to get con there. my advice take down any no. listed in this thread then call n ask them.

nice pics... dreamland beach sure does changed alot since the last time i went there..

for ronda2 around kuta and nearby places just rent a motobike. around RM15 - 20 a day. usually take a bike on my last day and go to those surfing brand factory/old season stock stores on the edge of kuta town. very cheap..

that's why i said it changed alot.. last time there's no such tent like in the pics and no crowd too.

now kinda rethinking whether or not to carry on taking my whole family to bandung early next year because of the disaster..
