Our Family’s Bali Accommodation Choices
After extensive research and careful planning, here’s what we personally decided for our upcoming Bali family holiday:
We chose Hard Rock Hotel Bali for our Kuta stay because:
- Massive pools and waterslides: Perfect for Benji to burn off energy!
- Fun, playful atmosphere: Kid-focused resort design that’s lively and family-centered.
- Beachfront location: Convenient access to Kuta Beach and nearby amenities.
- Affordable luxury: Great value for money compared to similar family resorts.
We felt Hard Rock offered the best combination of energetic fun and convenience for the first part of our trip, knowing how much our son enjoys water play.
For our Ubud experience, we booked SereS Springs Resort because:
- Private pool villas: Offering a touch of villa-style privacy but with full hotel convenience.
- Kids’ club availability: Giving us flexible options if Benji needed entertainment.
- Peaceful riverside location: A calming atmosphere after the lively buzz of Kuta.
- A little indulgence: We wanted to treat ourselves toward the end of the trip with a luxurious and relaxing stay.
It felt like the perfect compromise between a traditional villa stay and a full-service hotel, allowing us to unwind in Ubud’s tranquil setting.
Since our return flight to Sydney departs late at night, we planned ahead by booking a room at Hilton Garden Inn Bali Airport for a few hours before departure.
Reasons we chose this strategy:
- Affordable comfort: Around $80 AUD, far cheaper than airport lounge access (~$200 for a family of three).
- Private space to rest, shower, and have dinner before a long-haul flight.
- Convenient access: Only a few minutes’ drive to the terminal using Grab (no more free shuttle at Hilton).
- Toddler-friendly: Giving Benji a proper rest instead of hours of waiting in crowded airport areas.
Alternative tip for families:
If you prefer to avoid transport, Novotel Bali Ngurah Rai Airport is directly connected to the airport via walking bridge — but it was fully booked for our travel date.
Booking a day-use hotel room before late flights is something we highly recommend based on our planning!
Final Practical Tips
- Book 3–4 months in advance to secure family rooms and best prices.
- Target shoulder seasons (May–June, September–October) for better deals.
- Ask about kids’ amenities like cribs, pool fences, and kids’ menus before booking.
- Prioritize areas close to attractions your kids will love (Waterbom Bali, Bali Safari Park, beach access).
- Stay near medical clinics (BIMC, Siloam) especially with young children.
- Install Grab app: For easy, affordable transport (car seats not always available)
- Stay flexible: Island time is real — go with the flow!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Still have questions before booking your Bali family trip? Here are some commonly asked questions.
Is Nusa Dua or Sanur better for toddlers?
- Both are fantastic, but slightly different!
- Nusa Dua offers ultra-calm beaches, gated security, and large family resorts — perfect for first-time visitors and those seeking a peaceful experience.
- Sanur offers a more local Balinese feel with a slower pace, smaller resorts, and equally calm beaches, great for families wanting authentic charm.
Should I book accommodation close to the airport for departure day?
- Yes, especially for late-night flights!
- We personally booked Hilton Garden Inn Bali Airport for a few hours before our departure — giving us time to shower, eat, and rest without the stress of waiting around at the airport.
- Another great option is Novotel Bali Ngurah Rai Airport (connected by walkway).
How far in advance should I book Bali hotels for a family trip?
- Based on our research, the best family resorts and villas book out 3–4 months in advance, especially for Australian school holidays and peak seasons (June–July, December–January).
- Booking early gives you better choices, family suite availability, and often better prices.
Are Bali beaches safe for toddlers and young children?
- Yes — but only in certain areas!
- Beaches in Nusa Dua and Sanur are reef-protected and offer calm, shallow waters ideal for young kids.
- Beaches in Kuta, Seminyak, and Canggu have stronger waves — fun for sand play but swimming should always be closely supervised.
Should I choose a villa or a hotel when traveling to Bali with kids?
- It depends on your family’s needs!
- Hotels and resorts often offer kids’ clubs, daily activities, and convenience for shorter stays.
- Private villas offer space, kitchens, and private pools — perfect for longer stays or families wanting more privacy.
- We personally chose a hotel with villa-style options (SereS Springs Resort) for a mix of both.
Do family resorts in Bali provide car seats for airport transfers?
- Some do, but many do not automatically offer car seats unless requested in advance.
- We recommend checking directly with your hotel or arranging transport via companies that specialize in family transfers.
- Tip: Bring a portable car seat if you plan to travel around Bali often.
When is the best time to visit Bali with kids?
- The shoulder seasons — May to June and September to October — are ideal.
- You’ll enjoy warm, sunny weather without the peak-season crowds and prices.
- These months are perfect for outdoor activities, beach time, and sightseeing with young children.
What amenities should I prioritize when booking a family hotel in Bali?
Through our research, the most important family amenities include:
- Shallow pools or splash zones
- Kids’ clubs with age-appropriate activities
- Childproofing options (pool fences, baby gates)
- Family suites or connecting rooms
- On-site medical access or proximity to clinics
Always check directly with the hotel to confirm what’s included!
