We use ChargeAutomation to securely manage security deposits, and a valid credit card is required.

After check-out, once the villa has been inspected and everything is in order, the pre-authorisation hold is automatically released.

If no damages or additional charges are identified, the full amount is returned. If any costs are incurred, only the relevant amount will be processed.

3. Before You Arrive in Bali

Most visitors to Bali require a Visa on Arrival (VoA) or an e-Visa before travelling.

The Visa on Arrival is currently available for many nationalities and allows visitors to stay in Indonesia for up to 30 days, with the option to extend for an additional 30 days.

Visa requirements can change, so we recommend checking the latest I nformation from the Indonesian immigration website before travelling.

Most tourists enter Bali using a Visa on Arrival, which allows a stay of 30 days.

This visa can usually be extended once for another 30 days, allowing a total stay of up to 60 days.

For longer stays, other visa options may be available depending on your circumstances.

Yes, we strongly recommend that all visitors to Bali have comprehensive travel insurance.

Travel insurance can help cover unexpected situations such as medical treatment, travel delays, or trip cancellations.

Most travellers do not require special vaccinations to visit Bali, but it is always recommended to check with your doctor or travel clinic before travelling.

Standard vaccinations such as tetanus and hepatitis protection are commonly recommended for international travel.

The official currency in Bali is the Indonesian Rupiah (IDR).

Most daily expenses, restaurants, and local shops will use Indonesian Rupiah for payments.

You can exchange a small amount of money at the airport for convenience, but exchange rates are often better at reputable money changers or banks in Bali.

ATMs are widely available and withdrawing cash is often the easiest option.

Yes. Credit cards are widely accepted in hotels, restaurants, cafes and many shops.

However, smaller businesses and local markets may only accept cash, so I t is always useful to carry some Indonesian Rupiah.

Most international debit and credit cards can be used to withdraw Indonesian Rupiah.

Ride-hailing services such as Grab and Gojek operate widely in Bali and are commonly used for transport.

We recommend downloading Gojek or Grab before you arrive in Bali.

This allows you to set up your account, add your payment method, and be ready to book transport, food delivery, or services as soon as you land — making your arrival smooth and stress-free.

Tipping is not mandatory in Bali, but it is always appreciated for good service.

Many restaurants already include a service charge, but guests often choose to leave a small tip for staff as a gesture of appreciation.

Bali is generally considered a safe and welcoming destination for travellers. As with any destination, we recommend using normal travel awareness and taking care of personal belongings.

Sanur in particular is known for its relaxed atmosphere and friendly community.

9. Travel Guide

Sanur sits on the east coast of Bali, which is exactly why it is known for I ts sunrise rather than sunset. It is also one of the most convenient coastal bases on the island: close enough to Ngurah Rai International Airport for an easy arrival, yet far calmer than the heavy traffic zones of Kuta, Seminyak, or central Canggu. Local and travel sources repeatedly position Sanur as a practical, low-stress base with a village feel rather than a party-destination atmosphere.

What makes Sanur distinct is not that it tries to compete with Bali’s louder destinations. It does the opposite. The appeal is in the rhythm: morning walks, bicycles along the beachfront path, coffee by the sea, easy family meals, casual beach days, and a more mature, settled energy. That is the reason many people who “don’t want the chaos” end up preferring Sanur.

If Seminyak is about style and dining, and Canggu is about trend, traffic, and energy, then Sanur is about ease. A recurring theme across local guides is that Sanur suits travellers who want Bali to feel softer, simpler, and more liveable. The roads are flatter, the beach is calmer, the area is more pedestrian-friendly, and the general tone is less performative and more genuinely relaxed.

For families, this means less stress. For couples, it means a more romantic and restful stay. For longer-term visitors and digital nomads, it means a base where everyday life is manageable. Sanur is not trying to be “the hottest” place in Bali. It is one of the easiest places in Bali to actually enjoy day after day. That difference matters.

Yes — Sanur is widely regarded as one of Bali’s most family-friendly beach areas. The reasons are straightforward: the coastline is gentler than surf- heavy beaches elsewhere, the promenade makes movement easy with prams or children, the dining scene is broad and approachable, and the overall pace is calmer. Multiple local guides specifically frame Sanur as a strong fit for families and multigenerational travel.

It also works well for families because there is enough to do without everything becoming an “activity.” A family can walk the beach path in the morning, stop for breakfast, spend part of the day by the pool, head out for a simple dinner, and still feel they have had a proper Bali day without long transfers or overstimulation. That is one of Sanur’s biggest strengths.

Yes — Sanur suits couples who want connection, calm, and comfort rather than noise. It is a very good choice for a honeymoon-style stay, anniversary trip, or simply a more adult Bali experience. The sunrise setting gives the area a naturally romantic feel, and the pace encourages long breakfasts, beach walks, massages, slow afternoons, and easy evenings.

For couples who like the idea of Bali but not the intensity of busier precincts, Sanur often lands perfectly. It feels polished without being flashy.

Yes — especially for digital nomads who care more about quality of life than being in the center of Bali’s social-media scene. Current local guides describe Sanur as a more balanced base, with cafés, steady day- to-day infrastructure, walkability, and a quieter environment that suits l onger stays.

Sanur may not have the same co-working hype as Canggu, but many people find it easier to actually work there. The atmosphere is less distracting, commutes are simpler, and the mornings are excellent. That combination can be more valuable than trendiness. This is partly an I nference from the qualities repeatedly highlighted in local guides: calm pace, walkability, strong café scene, and longer-stay appeal.

Quiet hours are generally observed from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM.

We kindly ask all guests to respect these hours to ensure a peaceful environment for neighbours and the local community.

Yes — Sanur does offer beach club-style venues, although they are more relaxed and refined compared to the larger, high-energy beach clubs found in Seminyak or Canggu.
