Hi Guy's can anyone recommend any accom in Bali for a couple of families, preferably not in Kuta, under 200 clams thats villa style or nice hotel....cheers

your better off in a Villa for two families good luck finding one under 200 more like 300 and you will receive paradise.

So many options Tux. Keep well clear of Kuta / Legian. It all depends on the holiday agenda and the time of year....Do you want to be near the surf and away from all the crap? My lady and I were going to rent this whole place to get married. Looks unreal and comes with good recommendations from friends who have stayed there. But not great for the chicks to get to the beach. Although Padang is not too far.

Staying around Seminyak is a great option as the ladies can hang out down the beach and drink cocktails at Ku De Ta. Also loads of nice restaurants and things to do....be warned though as this is not the cheap end of time. expect to pay similar to Aussie prices. You can get an early morning ride out to Canggu though which only takes about 15 mins. And further a field lots of other waves to play with. Mission though to get out to the Bukit from there. If you are planing on surfing out that way mostly I would look to stay that side.

Thanks guys!!

Well Matt and four of his mates left this morning for a four week Bali adventure.One thing there will be less boards in one piece on there return
