Thank you 😊 Legian is quite hectic for a first timer, but is great if you want the thrown in experience 😂 If you want a more relaxing and quieter experience, head over to Sanur instead. There are lots of great hotels, restaurants and shops along the beach. 🥰

@@alandeb Thanks for that, I'll check it out. Enjoy 👍🇦🇺

Thanks for watching 😊

Have manners!

Would love to share a list with you but I rarely take notice of the names. We’ve eaten dinner at the same place for the last 3 nights and I don’t even know the name of it - how bad’s that! 😂

We love heading to Sanur because it is so much more laid back than Legian side and you don't get hassled to buy over there either. Prices have definitely go up a lot - even since November last year! Luckily though you can still do Bali on a budget if needed. We didn't pay more than $35 for any accommodation for 7 weeks and most of our meals were warungs so they were usually around $12 including a drink for 2. But I definitely agree that a lot of prices are very much the same as Australia at the moment. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. :)

Hey Jo, My experience will be different to a solo traveller as I’ve travelled with Al for for nearly 30 years now. My only recommendations are to be respectful of culture, polite (with a smile) when saying no. Learn no, thank you in Thai and Indonesian and also a few basic words or phrases. Never tell anyone it is your first time in their country. Buy a SIM in both places and use GoJek in Bali for transportation or book a driver for longer trips. Use Grab in Thailand and public transportation is great. Keep your drinks close and don’t walk the streets by yourself after 11pm. Know how much you want to spend on something prior to bargaining. When they give first high offer, you give a low ball offer. They’ll come down and you go up until you teach an agreement on price. You can say no thank you and walk away if you can not agree. Both places will be hectic at first but are so worth visiting! Enjoy 😊🌸💗

Thanks so much for the advice. Have a great time on your last week x

Heaps of variety in Bali and close to Garlic Lane. There’s street food, local warungs, pub food, restaurants and fine dining.

It really depends on your budget. We’re doing hotels super cheap this time because we’re here for 7 weeks. So our budget is pretty much $30 per night. Legian Village was approx $25 per night. Great pool. Great location. The room has aircon and fridge with no mould smell in bathroom. Only downside for us was the band every-night because our room was so close (why we changed to the quiet side Joni 2 on Garlic Lane) but in saying that, they did play a lot of great music! 👍🏻

@@alandeb Thanks guys for the advice we were going to stay in 2019 but we all know what happened then

Positive for the pool - it was ice cold (a lot of pools in Bali are warm!) 😆 Where was your best stay in Bali?

I’ll go check it out. Thanks for the recommendation mate 👍🏻

I was going to book it again - Al was going to kill me if I did! hahaha

Yep, now we know. The other part of the hotel was quieter and we did enjoy going back to the main one for the band and brews.

Wow! Thanks for watching and all the lovely compliments 💗 We’ll head down to Fat Tony’s within the next few days; or maybe lunchtime today! It must be good - a few people have mentioned that place now. 🍔

20 years ago we would have been up dancing every night! 😂😂 We had approximately a 1.5k accommodation budget for 7 weeks and we’re lucky enough to get this hotel for about $25 a night. Awesome location if you like being in the middle of everything. Side 2 (Joni 2) is very quiet and also has a small pool. The main side has a large pool, bar and restaurant.
