Wow..... what a fabulous day out. We spent two hours on the aqualand park with a small break in between for lunch. The whole place is amazing, we had such a great time. Family of 2 adults a 2 kids aged 6 and 8. The kids didn’t want to leave. It was a great work out and lots of fun. We spend a couple of extra hours in the beautiful infinity pool drinking, eating and watching the people on the cable doing tricks, wake boarding etc. A big shout out to Greg and his wife for looking after us and taking the time to talk, you have done a wonderful job..... can’t wait to return in January????

Pura Tirta Empul Segara Merta Sari

Reviewed By thethreeofus41 - Auckland, New Zealand

For us it was wonderful. It helped that it was not overcrowded and we read a bit about it beforehand. I closed my eyes and went inwards especially for the purification rituals and it was a truly spiritual experience. Understand that crowds and queues are frustrating so if it means something to you plan in advance and arrive as early as possible

Sanur Beach

The Sanur Beach Promenade is lined with brightly painted outrigger boats along the water's edge, and good restaurants and cafes opposite. Treat yourself to a massage offered by one of the many masseuses with divans on the sand. If you're there in July, catch the Bali Kite Festival, a colorful international competition.

Reviewed By UmiSam - Nightcliff, Australia

Sanur is an excellent choice for those who likes to rise with the sun, enjoy a pristine, calm white sand shore for long walks, quiet meditation, yoga on the beach, close access to organic & hearty foods, early morning great coffees, smoothies & bakeries. Stores & restaurants open into the late evening, but the overall atmosphere is of subtle jubilee and wholesome fun.

Bajra Sandhi Monument

Reviewed By DMGAmes_Iowa - Ames, United States

This national monument was built between 1998 and 2001. The architecture symbolizes the Day of Independence on 17 August 1945: there are 17 steps up to the main floor; 8 pillars in the rotunda; and the monument is 45 meters tall. The general form has been described as bell-shaped, suggesting the sound of freedom. Impressive statues and landscaping around the central monument. On an intermediate level, inside, are several series of well done, intricate, dioramas telling the history of Bali from prehistoric hunters and agriculturalists, incipient kingdoms, the invasion and occupation by Europeans, and the final independence from the Dutch empire. The day we were there, several groups of Muslim and Christian brides and grooms and their attendants were having their professional photographs taken. A joy to observe.

Sindhu Market

Reviewed By Afiz4 - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

This market opens at 6pm, there was a review saying it’s airconditioned, but this is open air market. Has plenty of halal food stalls to chose from. There are satay, fried items like banana, samosa, curry puff, taro. Then there’s bakso, chicken noodles, murtabak,roppongi (has trip advisor certificate of excellence!) smoothies, shaved ice with fruits during my visit. The price is so so so reasonable, I went two nights here. Highly recommend for local halal food.

Taman Festival

Reviewed By anetei2018 - Riga, Latvia

It was such a cool place to explore. It wasn't scary like we expected. But more like extremely impressed with all the graffiti and buildings. There's an entrance fee 20K IDR and that makes it feel even safer. And there are no people around, so it's a real adventure.

100k per entry and it takes about 30 to 40nminutes but it is great fun. A staff member walks around with you and takes as many photos as you want and shows you how to pose for the best photos. It is something very different and really good fun. We have 2 teenage boys and they had an absolute blast. Highly recommend.
