DAYS
IN BALI
ON OUR 18TH ANNIVERSARY, WE ARE EAGER TO

SPILL THE REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD SPEND
(AT LEAST) 18 DAYS ON THE ISLAND OF GODS.
WHERE TO GO AND WHAT TO DO, YOU MIGHT
WONDER? WE HAVE THE ANSWERS RIGHT HERE!
By Suhartina Sindukusumo
DAY 3
DAY 1
Go straight to Jalan Raya Seminyak, which is only a 20-minute drive from the
Ngurah Rai International Airport to get a sense of what the island has in store.
There you will nd notable eateries including EatWell that offers the ultimate
crispy pork belly that has become the talk of the island. After that, get over
your jetlag by staying at the Pullman Bali Legian Nirwana. Located in front of
Kuta Beach, this hotel offers a taste of tropical minimalist design and ve-star
hospitality service with a rooftop bar that hosts a daily pool party at 5 p.m.
www.pullmanbalilegiannirwana.com
DAY 2
Now lets leave Kuta and head to

Batu Belig Beach, where 707 Beach
Berm with a thatched-roof bar and
colorful beanbags is nestled. Here
you can enjoy a lovely sunset while
drinking Bintang, the leading beer
of Indonesia, and enjoy music by
local DJs that will set your beach
mode on. But before heading to this
dog-friendly place, have a taste of
Balinese nasi campur (mix rice) at
Biku. Situated on Jalan Petitenget,
this restaurant is decorated with a
Balinese interior design, and serves
Indonesian comfort foods. The place
is perfect to chill and read and
dont forget that their high tea is one
of the most wanted on the island.

Before you kick off your ip-ops to surf and swim at Kuta Beach, drop by the
Balcony Restaurant owned by world-class professional surfer Rizal Tandjung.
This bar is one of the famous go-to bars for surfers in Kuta, including previous
world champions Kelly Slater and Mick Fanning! And if you want to check out
the old-school vibe of Bali, pay a visit to Poppies Lane, where classic restaurants
and bars have been standing since the 70s. One of the restaurants you have to
try is Poppies Restaurant, where wooden dining tables and rattan chairs are set
surrounded by green plants. Here you can also meet Mbok (a Balinese term for
older woman) who will not only serve you the rijstaffel and arak madu, but also
tell you a lot about Kuta and its surroundings.

DAY 6
DAY 4
Head west to the Tanah Lot Temple in Tabanan that stands on a big
rock formation. An old belief says that this Hindu temple is guarded by
a venomous snake under the rocks that is believed to protect the island
from evil. After visiting Tanah Lot, go a bit farther to the Alila Villas
Soori and stay at their Mountain Pool Villa, or at least experience the
Alila Spa where organic nutrition plays the main role in their Asian
healing techniques. Their spa has also won Destination Spa of the
Year by Asia Spa Award in 2010.

www.alilavillassoori.com
From Batu Belig or Petitenget, you can

reach Canggu in around 20 to 30 minutes
on a scooter. Canggu is worth a visit for
its healthy restaurants like Nalu Bowls,
Betelnut Caf and KOI where you can
nd the trending Kombucha and smoothie
bowl. There are three beaches in Canggu
you can visit; Batu Bolong, Berawa and
Echo Beach the latter is home to Sand
Bar where a beach party is hosted from
12 a.m. to 4 a.m. Before heading to
Sand Bar, make sure you drop by Batu
Bolongs famous Old Mans, a laidback
bar situated in front of Batu Bolong Beach
that adopts Thailand-style beer pong, a
Jamaican sound party, and a car photo
box occasionally.

DAY 7
DAY 5
Still in Canggu, youre going to wake up to a rice eld view if you stay at
the Askara Canggu Villas. Similar to Ubud, Canggu boasts breathtaking
greenery. And before continuing your adventure in Canggu, make sure to fuel
up at Roti Canai Flow & Yonder, which serves some light dishes consisting
of Western-style roti canai with bacon, mushrooms and cream cheese. Then
head to The Lawn, an open garden located at the Batu Bolong beachfront,
and get their fresh coconut drink and popcorn for a snack while waiting for
the sunset.

participants are hundreds of
buffalos with local citizens as
their jockeys. If youre lucky,
you may be able to witness
the Jembrana Regents Cup or

After watching makepung,

have some downtime at
Menjangan Island. As a part
of the West Bali National Park,
Menjangan Island is home to
several high-end resorts, one
of them The Menjangan. This
retreat is not only offers idyllic
accommodations but also a
number of exciting activities, be
it on land or in the sea. You can

www.themenjangan.com
After two days of spending time swimming

in the ocean, recharge your batteries by
visiting Singaraja, the former capital city
of Bali that is still full of old charm. Lots
of Dutch and Chinese heritage sites are
there, from synagogues to harbor and
food stalls, all very interesting to see.
Dont forget to stop by Siobak Khe
Lok at Jalan Surapati No. 66 to get
a taste of Singarajas signature
dish and visit the Lontar Museum
at Jalan Veteran No. 20 where
palm leaf manuscripts from
Indonesias pre- and postIndependence era are stored.
Not far from the West Bali National

Park is Pemuteran, a laid-back shing
village where you can spot around 60
Biorock coral-structure installations in
the Pemuteran Bay. What makes this so
amazing is the fact that the 300-meter
length of the total biorock structure is
one of the largest biorock projects in the
world. Drop by and put on your dive
suit to witness it up close with your own
eyes. There are several dive operators
that can help you to see it, or you can
simply go to the Pemuteran Biorock
Information Center at the bay.

DAY 11
DAY 12
Now lets head to Batur and make our way

to the Trunyan Village, a Bali Aga village
where the descendants of Hindu Majapahit
live they are also believed to be the original
Balinese people. This village is situated at
the edge of Lake Batur, so you need to cross
the lake with a traditional boat to get there.
Here you will also nd the Trunyan cemetery,
where dead bodies are not buried nor burned
but are wrapped in white fabric with their
heads still exposed and placed in a bamboo
cage. You can also learn about the villages
culture and traditions, like why they restrict
women from going to the burial ceremony.
While still in the highlands, it is time to learn about Balinese

coffee in Kintamani, an area famous for its coffee plantations
and agro-tourism that focuses on local coffee. The Luwak Civet
Coffee Farm in Desa Sekardadi is one of the stars in this area.
Upon arrival you will be greeted by the staff that offers samples
of Balinese coffee and tea, and for a small cost you can taste a
cup of kopi luwak (civet coffee). Here you can also see the coffee
farm and meet the civets (luwak) civets only select the best
coffee beans, and the beans they have digested somehow have
more characteristics that makes civet coffee the most valuable
coffee in the world. While youre here, get ready to fall for the
pungent aroma of the freshly-roasted coffee and buy packs of
coffee sold at their shop.

regency before you head back down South. This region
is home to the picturesque restaurant Bali Asli. The owner
spent years learning and perfecting her cooking skills to
make the best Balinese food on the island the traditional
festive food called Megibung is the highlight that you

DAY 16
When you arrive in South Bali already, you should

visit the Sanur area, which used to be the most
popular spot for tourists and expats on its heyday.
This area is lled with beachfront cafes and
charming hotels that have existed for ages. Sanur
has been known as the place where the retired
reside, but now Sanur is becoming more popular
among the young and creative crowd. The Rumah
Sanur Creative Hub is the place where indie gigs,
coffee enthusiasts, and activists from different
backgrounds and scenes gather in Sanur and make
the area more alive with its events that support local
communities. www.rumahsanur.com
DAY 17
DAY 14
Before going back to South Bali, visit the newly opened

Secret Garden Village in Baturiti. The Secret Garden Village
is a compound that consists of a beauty heritage museum,
a beauty factory and a factory outlet made by Herborist
beauty products. The minimalist-modern design will be
a nice change after visiting many places with Balinese
architecture. From Baturiti, follow the path down to Ubud
and you will eventually nd the Tirta Empul Temple in
Gianyar, where you can observe a local ceremony called
Melukat, a purication ceremony you can join it also, to
clear your mind, body and soul.
www.secretgarden.co.id
Start your morning by experiencing water sport

activities at Tanjung Benoa. A number of water sport
attractions are available for you to choose from, such
as yboarding, parasailing, banana boat, scuba
diving, ying sh, and more. If you want to try all
of them, simply make a booking on Tanjung Benoa
Watersports website, a water sport provider that you
can rely on. Then recharge your energy by viewing
a awless sunset from Single Fin a bar located at the
top of Suluban Beach in Uluwatu. Aside from groovy
cocktails, they also have the best spot in Uluwatu for
you to see a remarkable sunset.
www.tanjungbenoa.com
DAY 15
Halfway down from the highlands, you should spend a

night or two in Ubud where wallpaper screen-like rice elds
will pamper your eyes. You can enjoy the view of scenic
rice terraces and the subak (Balinese traditional irrigation
system) in Tegalalang District and watch traditional dance
performances in several temples. The temples in Ubud host
Balinese dance performances once to three times a week,
but one of the most magical (and the oldest) is the one in
Puri Agung Peliatan. For the admission fee of Rp. 100,000,
you can watch the two-hour Balinese traditional dance
every Saturday. Watch during a full moon as it adds more
of a magical vibe to the performance.
DAY 18
Your last day should end with a snooze at a beach

club. Head to the Sundara Beach Club at the Four
Seasons Resort Bali at Jimbaran Bay in Jimbaran,
a must-visit beach club with a 57-meter innity
edge pool that offers a great selection of cocktails
and dishes as well as delightful Sunday brunch.
You can get a special package too while waiting
for your night ight. So, are you ready to watch
your last sunset in Bali?

came to Bali for a sunset cocktail session at Ku De Ta and
snuck a little time to chat with Bali & Beyond (BB).
BB:What made you decide to become a professional
bartender?
CJ: It was when I realized that I had the opportunity to
combine two sides of my persona: the operations side,
which includes developing, building and running bars
and restaurants, and my creativity in hospitality and the
freeform style of creating cocktails.
BB: Describe your life as one of the best bartenders in the
world in three words.
CJ: Always chasing emails.
BB: Whats your ultimate comfort drink?
CJ: Old rum on ice.
BB: Whats the most difcult drink youve ever made?
CJ: Making cocktails for a guest that had lost their sense
of smell. You have to get very creative in order to make a
drink that is still appealing to this altered sense of taste.
BB: Any exciting projects coming up?
CJ: Im continuing to expand my line of Crafthouse
Cocktails throughout the USA. You can see what we do
atCrafthouse Cocktails website.I also have a full array
of bar tools and glassware that I design with a wonderful
USA rm called Fortessa in conjunction with Schott Zwiesel
glassware. Im very excited to introduce professional
quality barware to the general public so folks can make
great cocktails at home as well!

gracious and majestic with
only a few rough parts when I got lost

and some locals brought me back to
the right track. Her name is Mount
Batur and shes the second highest
volcano in Bali after the great Mount
Agung. But then ve years after my
rst hike she erupted, spewing hot
lava and sand ashes but fortunately

she wanted to blow off some steam,
who knows? Maybe.
The second time I paid her a visit
was the same week we as our planet
celebrated the so-called Earth Day
this year. She was standing as proud
as before at 1,777 meters above the
sea level in the Kintamani Regency,
part of the Bangli area. The ground
under her feet got denser, but the
lush greenery makes her even
prettier. Mount Batur is home to 15
villages, with Songan, Kedisan, Toya
Bungkah and Trunyan as the main
ones.
My mission that day was the
so-called pre-dawn trek arranged
by Bali Eco Cycling. I arrived at The
Lookout Restaurant that is located on
the side of Lake Batur at 3 a.m. to
join seven other trekkers and enjoy a
hot beverage and some fruit for my

TIPS AND TRICKS FOR HIKING MOUNT BATUR:

Wear a quick drying shirt so the sweat from hiking will easily
evaporate while watching the sunrise.
Bring a light windbreaker. The chilly temperature can sometimes be
a bit serious.
Make sure you have enough rest prior to your trek.
Wear proper shoes with non-slip soles.
Before hiking, dont drink too much water; otherwise your kidneys
will hurt.
Bring a walking stick if possible.
Be careful descending the mountain as some paths can be slippery.
Try to sidestep to increase your grip and reduce the risk of stumbling.

Belly, Lomotil and Imodium eliminate symptoms,
but not gastro-related infections. A fever along
with symptoms requires doctor-prescribed
antibiotics.
Drink as much liquid as possible. Isotonic
drinks under various brand names are widely
available and are known to replenish body
hydration and replace uids. For discomfort,
diarrhea and cramping, drink strong, hot tea;
avoid fruits and spicy foods.
Some day-biting mosquitoes carry dengue
fever, but this is not a problem in tourist areas.
Bali is non-malarial and prophylaxis is not
required. Mosquito bites, cuts or abrasions
easily become infected in the tropics. Treat them
immediately.
Drink only bottled or boiled water. Peel fruit
before eating; avoid raw vegetables except at
reputable restaurants. Ice in restaurants is safe.
Protect yourself from the intense equatorial sun.
Use high SPF sunblock and a hat.
