Bali's Cheap Accommodation


One most important thing when you're travelling is finding the right accommodation to suit both your comfort and your budget. In Bali you can find extensive range of accommodation from a small room with a bed in a crowded lane to a secluded five star resort, from a homely homestay to a luxurious villa. Your choice depends on the money you plan to spend for a good night sleep. And for those of you in favor of a tight budget accommodation, you should not worry of finding one that fits you.
If you prefer to stay in Kuta area, the bussiest tourist spot in the island, you won't need to look hard to find cheap and reasonably priced accommodations in the area. Along the street of Legian there are many presentable and clean hotels at around the price of Rp. 250.000 - Rp. 350.000 (equivalent to around USD 30.00) per night. They might have different rate for overseas tourists. My recommendation would be Adi Dharma, Fourteen Roses, Restu, Dewi Sri, Barong. You can find their profiles through the internet.
But if you are thinking of something with a lower rate, then I suggest you slip yourself into Poppies lane. In Poppies Lane 1 you can find a strip of inns and homestays at a very low price.
If you prefer to stay in a more peaceful area, you can try Sanur. Sanur also has hotels at reasonable price that you can find along the road of Danau Tamblingan such as hotel santai, Inna Sindhu hotel. Or if you prefer a simple but comfortable homestay, my reccommendation would be Widya's homestay at Jalan Wira, Sanur, very peaceful, very homey, clean, 5 minutes walk to the beach and for as low as Rp. 75.000 (about USD 8) per night, you can have a room, cold shower, breakfast, unlimited tea and coffee. How is that for a good deal?
