Luxury for Less on a Bali Holiday
Bali though very popular with travellers is still surprisingly affordable if you know where to look. If you do your research, jump online and plan ahead, you can enjoy a luxury holiday in Bali for a lot less money than you think.
Low season in Bali
Travelling off season comes with many pocket-friendly advantages. The low season in Bali starts from 10th January to the 30 June (except Chinese New Year and Easter) so it’s the perfect time to escape and take advantage of flight sales, accommodation specials and great deals on dining and activities on the island. Although, it’s the wet season in Bali, the showers usually clear in a few hours and the weather is still good enough to make the most of your holiday. Imagine an afternoon swim in your private pool while it’s pouring! It offers an instant relief from the tropical weather as well as helps you connect with the earth and recharges your senses.
All-round destination
Bali has something for all ages, so whether you’re travelling with family or as a couple, there’s a lot to do, explore and indulge on your holiday. Imagine sunset walks on the beach with a Bintang and a meal that won’t cost you more than $10. Want a little pampering? You can enjoy a massage in Bali for a mere $10, why not try a different treatment every day?
Flight sales
Keep an eye on flight sales as many low-cost airlines offer cheap flights to Bali on Jet Star, Garuda Indonesia, Tiger Air and Air Asia. A round trip flight from Perth or Darwin will cost you as little as $300 on sale. Set alerts and wait for the right opportunity to book.
Eating out is affordable
Food in Bali is so versatile that you can try a different cuisine every day and eating out is definitely cheaper than back home. There are so many fantastic places to eat in Bali that will suit every traveller’s palate and pocket. From salad bars to coffee shops, acai bowls, Balinese warungs and excellent seafood, there are endless options to choose from. A meal for two at a good restaurant will cost you between $15-50. Oh, and you can enjoy Bintangs and cocktails on the beach anywhere from $1-$5.
Do nothing, but relax
Relax in your own private villa and enjoy some well-deserved ‘me’ time. There’s no cooking, cleaning or buying groceries, let the staff take over. Envision yourself living like a celebrity – calling for cocktails and juices all day, ordering in your favourite food and watching your favourite movies in the media room. How about a moonlight swim, a long soak in a bathtub filled with petals or sun salutations by the pool bale? Bali is the perfect place to escape the chaos and stress of urban life land indulge in the tranquil calm that will help you revive and rejuvenate.
