Planning a family holiday in Bali? You’ll find more than a beautiful beach and a kids’ pool here. The island’s best resort kids’ clubs offer everything from Balinese dance and cooking classes to creative workshops, playgrounds, water games and dedicated spaces for teenagers.
This guide rounds up the top kids’ clubs across Nusa Dua, Jimbaran, Kuta and Seminyak, with the practical details you need to choose the right fit.
What to know before you go
Most resort kids’ clubs in Bali cater to children aged four to 12 (although younger children are often welcome to attend with an accompanying adult) and run daily from around 9am to 5pm. Access is generally complimentary for hotel guests, though some resorts charge for day passes or specific activity sessions. Age limits vary – check each property if you’re travelling with a toddler or teenager.
Kids’ clubs in Nusa Dua
Sofitel Bali Nusa Dua Beach Resort
At Sofitel Bali Nusa Dua Beach Resort, children aged 0–12 can spend time at the beachside Kids Villa, which includes a kids’ pool, reading room and supervised activities from 9am to 6pm. You’ll receive two complimentary hours per day, while children aged four and under must stay with a parent or guardian. It’s a practical choice for families who want younger children entertained nearby while keeping plenty of time for the beach and resort pool.
Apurva Kempinski Bali
The Jalak Family Club at The Apurva Kempinski Bali, Nusa Dua, takes its lead from the Montessori approach — self-directed, hands-on activity rather than structured drills. Open daily from 8am to 8pm for children aged 3–12, the club offers indoor and outdoor play across an indoor playground, an outdoor adventure area, and a family pool with water slides. Activities might include puppet shows, mask making, movies and family classes such as cookie making, tie-dye workshops and cupcake decorating. Culturally, the resort runs rotating programs that introduce children to Indonesia’s regional traditions — through storytelling, traditional games and craft — as part of the wider Apurva cultural calendar. When it’s time to eat, Koral, Bali’s only aquarium restaurant, is sure to enchant young diners.
Grand Hyatt Bali
The Kids’ Club at Grand Hyatt Bali in Nusa Dua runs daily for children aged three to 12, with the specific aim of connecting kids to Balinese culture and the resort’s natural environment. Traditional dance lessons, Gamelan instrument introductions and guided explorations of the resort’s local flora and fauna sit alongside the usual activities. It’s complimentary for the first two hours, with additional paid programming. Outside the club, the resort’s pools include multiple waterslides, and the beach facilities are right there — making Grand Hyatt Bali a solid base for families who want genuine cultural depth alongside the usual splashing about.
Merusaka Nusa Dua
With arts, culture and style peppering every inch of this recently refreshed resort, it stands to reason that Bali’s Merusaka Nusa Dua’s Tamaya Kids Land focuses heavily on creativity. Activities come in the form of Balinese dance lessons, beach playtime, face painting and craft making. An indoor playground also offers hours of monkeying around.
Little ones will be endlessly entertained by caring staff who provide a fun, safe environment to learn about local traditions, giving parents a chance to relax sans kids – think well-deserved moments of quiet at Spa by MERUSAKA and sunbathing alongside the glittering multi-level swimming pool.
Mulia Resort
Fans of Mulia Resort will know the effort that goes into making sure families can enjoy a relaxing holiday. The Mulia Kidz programme encourages children (aged three to eight) to get creative in an engaging environment. Hosted by a dedicated team, this kid-centric facility offers just the right amount of fun, with education, arts, crafts, and movie time. There are also beach days, face painting and personality-curated experiences available.
Older kids definitely won’t be bored either, as they can sign up for T-Zone, which includes everything from water aerobics and beach soccer to pool tournaments and trivia or bingo.
Novotel Bali Nusa Dua
At Novotel Bali Nusa Dua, the Kids Club gives family days an easy rhythm, with a rotating programme of recycle-paper decorations, balloon-making, pool games, movie time, origami, arts and crafts, Balinese dress-up, temple visits, dance lessons and treasure hunts. The schedule also extends beyond the club, with outdoor games, mini hotel tours, kite flying and activities around the pool and beach club, while cooking, painting, slime and bracelet-making sessions add a creative touch for an extra charge. With activities designed for children up to 16, there’s plenty to keep younger guests occupied while parents enjoy some downtime.
Kids’ clubs in Jimbaran
InterContinental Bali Resort
Planet Trekkers runs daily from 9am to 7pm, with pricing that covers healthy meals rather than treating food as an add-on. Parents with children under four can book a professional nanny, and an all-female team of Club Hosts and lifeguards — all trained in childcare and first aid — supervises the space throughout the day. A video security system and dedicated parent pages let you check in on your kids without hovering.
What sets Planet Trekkers apart from a standard kids’ club is how Balinese it actually feels. Children prepare traditional offerings, pick up a few words of Bahasa Indonesia, and learn Balinese dance rather than generic craft-table activities. The roster also runs through face painting, accessory making, cookie decorating and fishing, giving the day enough variety that kids move between quiet, active and hands-on activities rather than sticking to one mode all day.
AYANA Bali
Spread across 90 clifftop hectares above Jimbaran Bay, the AYANA Bali complex is home to RIMBA Jungle Adventure, a 1,600-square-metre indoor-outdoor playground and Bali’s largest resort kids’ playground. Its three zones cater to different ages: Sproutroots is an outdoor adventure area for children aged seven to 15, with rope climbs, a flying fox and air slides; Lumincave is a sensory play space for younger children, with under-fours accompanied by a parent, guardian or nanny; and upstairs Whisperwood features giant puzzles, craft sessions and cultural activities including paper crown making, paper quilling and Balinese dance lessons.
Open daily from 9am to 6pm, with a sanitation break from noon to 1pm, the playground offers free play for in-house guests, while scheduled activities such as crafts, dance lessons, nature walks and fish feeding require advance booking and may incur an additional charge. The wider estate also offers family activities including baking and pizza-making, while guests staying at any of AYANA Bali’s four connected hotels can access 14 pools and beaches and 30 restaurants and bars via the complimentary tram.
Mövenpick Resort & Spa Jimbaran Bali
Just moments from the shimmering beachfront of Jimbaran, this luxury Mövenpick property offers five-star luxury, five onsite restaurants and the adjoining Samasta Lifestyle Village (an open-air shopping centre that is full of various stores that sell international and local brands). But its youngest visitors have a spectacular dedicated space that rivals even the adult amenities.
Meera Kids’ Club is a two-storey pirate-themed play area, offering a vast array of fun and educational entertainment options for children four to 12 years old. The first floor is complemented by an indoor playground, a ball pit and a sleeping room – ideal for a post-play afternoon nap. Meanwhile, teenagers occupy the second floor, where cooking classes and gaming console tournaments are held.
Kids’ clubs in Kuta
Hard Rock Hotel Bali
Like everything else at Hard Rock Hotel Bali, Roxity Kids’ Club (for kids aged four to 12) offers indulgent over-the-top fun with endless games and activities. The lofty space is inspired by age-appropriate rock’n’roll elements, with fun and unique characters who encourage children of all ages to rock out and let their originality shine.

As for the adults, they can de-stress poolside in a comfortable cabana, unwind at the indulgent Rock Spa or venture into Kuta for its buzzing bars and restaurants.
Kids’ clubs in Seminyak
The Trans Resort Bali
In the heart of Seminyak, The Trans Resort Bali is a relaxing oasis set in the midst of Bali’s most sophisticated and upscale area. Just minutes from all the action, the stylish resort is also home to a dedicated area for little ones to explore their creativity – giving parents much-needed time off to lounge on the resort’s very own manmade beach where Australian sand gives way to the sparkling blue waters of the outdoor pool.
