Planning a trip to Bali? You’re in for an unforgettable experience, but where you stay and how you plan can make a huge difference in how much you enjoy your time on the Island of the Gods.
From choosing the right area to knowing how to get around, here’s everything you need to know before booking your Bali trip.
Where to Stay in Bali?
Bali has something for every kind of traveler, whether you want to be in the heart of the action or tucked away in a peaceful villa. Here’s a quick breakdown of some of the most popular areas to stay:
- Canggu
A vibrant hub for digital nomads, surfers, and foodies. Canggu is packed with trendy cafés, beach clubs, and boutique shops, making it ideal if you love a social scene and sunset cocktails.
Villa Tupai Berawa - Seminyak
Known for its upscale shopping, fine dining, and beach resorts, Seminyak offers a more polished Bali experience. You’ll find luxury spas, international restaurants, and chic beach lounges.
Villa Bali Manis Seminyak - Kerobokan
This area acts as a connector between Seminyak and Canggu, offering easy access to both while being slightly quieter. You’ll find hidden gems like local warungs, rice field views, and cozy villas.
Villa Du Bah Kerobokan - Umalas
A lesser-known gem, Umalas offers quiet residential vibes while still being close to hotspots like Canggu and Seminyak. Think stylish villas, tree-lined streets, and a slower pace of life.

The Best Ways to Get Around Bali
Getting from one place to another in Bali is part of the adventure, but it helps to know your options before you arrive.
- Scooter Rental
If you’re confident on two wheels, a scooter is the most popular and flexible way to explore. It’s perfect for short trips to the beach, café hopping, or heading to yoga class.
Motorcycle on the beach - Private Driver
For longer day trips, a private driver is your best bet. It’s affordable, comfortable, and lets you explore at your own pace without worrying about directions.
