Travel Answers

I am going to Bali for 2 weeks in September. I am a mature single female travelling along. I'd like to stay in 3 or 4 places while I'm there--I'd like to see some culture and religious temples, but would like to spend 4-5 days at the beach. I'm considering Amed (Eka Purnama cottages), maybe Sideman, Ubud, perhaps Sideman. I am a little concerned about getting around. Could someone let me know whether the places I've chosen work to show Balinese culture, with some beach? And can I get around between them pretty easily. Grateful for any answers--there are just so many possible places to go. Thanks!

i need a cheap, clean comfy room that is quiet for around 150,000 in kuta area, need e-mail to book it as arriving late, thanks

Does anyone know how I can get in touch with this guesthouse so I can book with them, instead of trying to book with them when I get there: tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review...

Thanks!

I was recently recommend UBUD as a destination to consider for time out to recover my health, and reignite my spirit, emotionally, physically and artistically. I am single, a photographer / graphic designer and seek a safe place to call home for 2 mths.
On my wish list is the following:

• A quaint place to stay, picturesque, lush, and quiet ( budget $50 per night)
• Air con & a good swimming pool that I can exercise in.
• Easily accessible to markets, cafes, town - as I cant walk distances due to an injured foot. Though I have heard its easy to get around by public transport
• Would like to also engage in art workshops - and even cooking ones would be great too
• Affordable daily massages
• Sound baths or similar if they exist
• Gentle exercise classes
• Open to other forms of healing...

Advise given to me was to find a nice place to stay and then go and visit a place called the Yoga Barn as from there I could find many opportunities for health / healing networking and so forth etc.

Does anyone have any tips for art workshops of any kind? A central place like the Yoga Barn maybe and a website perhaps etc.

Are their any forums one can use to network - maybe to find other people in Ubud where one can share interests - ie photography, or just hook up for coffee etc.

I am planning to go Sept / October
I am not a beach or bar person. More inclined to seek peaceful environs....

Many thanks in anticipation.
P.S. I am in my 40's so I would like some comforts but it doesn't have to be extravagant. Gone are the days of backpacking :)

Does anyone know what the ATMs in Bali charge? And what is the maximum amount of cash you can withdraw from the ATM?

Thanks!

Hi, I am a single mature female travelling to Bali for 2 weeks. I'd like to see cultural sites and religious temples, and to spend 4-5 days at the beach. I am considering Amed (Eka Purnama), Ubud, Munduk, and maybe Sideman. I'm a little concerned about how I will get around between these different places. I'd like to stay at 3 or 4 places max so I am not running around the whole time. Any suggestions would be welcome! I'm also interested in renting a car for the day and touring--any suggestions about that would be great. Thanks!

I will be landing in Denpasar a day ahead of the rest of my travelling mates, and then we're headed off to Seminyak. I will be landing in the evening of May 21, 2013, and meeting the rest of my mates the next day in the early evening.

I would like to spend a day exploring Denpasar on my own, but unsure of where to stay at for the evening. A hotel I have seen with a great rate is Cityzen Renon. Anyone have any opinions about this hotel? It seems to be well rated.

Also, any suggestions on "must-sees" in Denpasar?

Thanks in advance!
