Best places to stay in Bali

A Bali holiday caters to every kind of holiday. Honeymooners and lively travellers will love Seminyak and Kuta’s nightlife, top-tier restaurants and shopping. Ubud, the cultural heart of Bali is known for its temples, rice terraces and arts scene. Trendy Canggu attracts surfers and digital nomads with its laid-back vibe and numerous beach clubs, while Nusa Dua is perfect for families with calm beaches and sprawling resorts. If you’re seeking more seclusion, Jimbaran Bay’s clifftop resorts offer some of the island’s best sunsets, and the Nusa Islands are perfect for day trips or extended island stays.

When is the best time to visit Bali?

The best time to visit Bali is during the dry season from May to September, when temperatures range from 26°C to 29°C, ideal for beach days and outdoor sightseeing. The wet season, from October to April, can bring heavy rainfall and humidity, particularly between December and February. While the rain can be intense, it’s often short-lived so visiting Bali during this time is great for encountering fewer crowds and lush green landscapes. If you’re visiting in March, you might experience Nyepi, Bali’s Day of Silence, when the island shuts down for 24 hours – a unique cultural experience worth noting when booking your flights.

Bali’s best resorts

For five-star indulgence, The Apurva Kempinski Bali delivers grandeur with all-villa accommodation options, while AYANA Resort impresses with clifftop views and the famous Rock Bar. The Mulia in Nusa Dua is an all-time favourite for honeymooners with exclusive beachfront suites. Families will love Sofitel Bali Nusa Dua’s kids’ clubs and beachfront access, and the all-inclusive Grand Hyatt Bali’s sprawling pools, waterslides and kid-friendly rooms. For nature lovers, Maya Ubud Resort & Spa pairs tropical jungle views with unparalleled wellness, while Six Senses Uluwatu features cliffside villas and eco-conscious luxury.
