Family Friendly Hotels in Bali with Adorable Family Rooms

Family friendly hotels in Bali

Going on a Bali holiday with family was already the best thing ever when I was a kid. I don’t remember staying in any special kids’ rooms or having a kids’ club at the hotel back then. And I don’t think I even cared – all I wanted was room service – because that was the only time I was actually allowed to eat in the bedroom, lol – and a swimming pool where I could swim around all day until my skin got ridiculously dark.

Kids these days, though, are seriously spoiled! Hotels have gone all out with family rooms, colourful bunk beds, games, cute little corners and even dedicated spaces designed to make kids feel like they’re on a holiday of their own. Seeing these rooms now, I’m starting to think we really missed out.

So, if you’re heading to Bali with the kids, you might as well give them the full holiday experience. These family-friendly hotels have rooms that are just as fun as the destinations themselves. The kids will probably be more excited about where they’re sleeping than where you’re taking them, hehe. Here are some of the nicest ones to check out, and the list will keep growing as we find more cutesie ones.

Rainy Season Guide: Indoor Things to Do in Bali

Indoor things to do in Bali Unlike countries with four seasons, Indonesia has only two: the wet season and the dry season. Both come with a tropical climate in most parts of the country, so expect warm temperatures alllll yearrr longgg, hehe. In Bali, the rainy season typically begins around October or November and lasts until February or March. While some travellers see the rain as a holiday hurdle, others welcome it as a chance to enjoy Bali at a slower pace, with cooler temperatures and a different kind of charm. And there are still plenty to do, even when it's pouring. From cosy cafes to creative workshops, here are some fun indoor activities to add to your Bali itinerary this rainy season. Indoor things to do in BaliA spa escapeA little sweat between feastsRecovery dayGet in touch with your artsy side!Play time for the little travellersCoffee and cosy cornersMake the most of your stay A spa escape Imagine this: rain pattering outside while you're tucked away in a cosy spa, surrounded by the soothing scent of frangipani or lemongrass. A Balinese gamelan plays softly in the background as you surrender to the goodness of a traditional Balinese massage, ahhh so good. And with many spas in Bali being very affordable, one spa day might turn into two, three, or who knows? When in Bali, let the pampering begin! A little sweat between feasts Holidays usually come with a little weight gain, but how about some muscle gains this time? hehe. Apart from endless cafes and restaurants, Bali has plenty of lovely gyms and studios offering everything from yoga and Pilates to HYROX, boxing, and MMA. Whether you're a fitness buff or just fancy trying something new, squeeze in a workout before heading off for that well-deserved buffet brunch..or lunch...or dinner...or all of them! My Go-To Gyms in Canggu for Strength Training, Classes, and Recovery Recovery day Rainy days are a pretty good excuse to take a break, especially if your body could use one too (after all the workouts!). Many gyms in Bali have recovery facilities like saunas, ice baths, steam rooms and pools. Some even have hammams, magnesium pools, infrared saunas and jacuzzis, while there are also wellness centres dedicated entirely to recovery! You'd be surprised how easily you can spend a whole afternoon just...relaxing. Get in touch with your artsy side! Bali has plenty of workshops to keep you busy on a rainy day, whether you're into painting, pottery, silver-making, or just want to try something for the plot. We've rounded up some artsy-partsy activities below. Go have a look, pick one, and make yourself a little holiday souvenir. Get Crafty: 8 Creative Classes and Workshops in Bali Play time for the little travellers If you're holidaying with kids, a little rain doesn't have to put a damper on the fun. From indoor playgrounds where they can run wild to museums where they can get curious, there are still plenty of ways to keep the little ones entertained. Some of the spots from our previous article below are fully indoors, making them perfect for rainy days. Have a browse and save a few for your next rainy-day adventure! Fun Kids Activities in Bali: A Little Something for Every Age Coffee and cosy corners There's something about rainy days in Bali that makes coffee taste even better. The sound of raindrops, a cosy corner by the window, and a good cup of coffee in hand. No rush, no plans, just you and your caffeine fix. There are soooo many lovely cafes in Bali to hide away in and romanticise the rainy season. Here are a couple of Kata Bella coffee lists featuring our picks around Canggu and Denpasar. Kata Bella's List of Good Coffee Shops in Denpasar Best Coffee Shops in Canggu, Umalas, and Nearby Areas Make the most of your stay Very often, we pick a dreamy resort or villa for our holiday, only to enjoy it for a few hours because we're too busy exploring outside. But if you're visiting Bali during the wet season, take it as a sign to slow down and actually enjoy the place you're staying in. Snuggle up in that comfy bed, catch up on your favourite shows, order some comfort food from room service, or simply spend some quality time with your family or friends. If you're in Bali with kids, here are some ideas of hotels with family rooms to check out. Family Friendly Hotels in Bali with Adorable Family Rooms Rainy season doesn't have to ruin your Bali holiday. If anything, it's a good excuse to slow down, try something new, treat yourself to a massage, discovering new cafes, or simply enjoy that lovely accommodation you booked. Sure, you might have to shuffle your plans around a little (and keep an umbrella handy, hehe), but Bali still has plenty to offer when the skies turn grey. So, don't let the rain stop you from having a good time! Hope you find this article useful, and happy holiday!

Where to Go for Live Music in Canggu: Your Guide to Chill Night Outs

Live Music in Canggu I’ve written many articles about places to eat in Canggu for lunch and dinner - but now...where do we go after dinner for a chill night out? I’m not really into partying anymore (those days are behind me, lol), but I do enjoy catching up with friends over music that isn’t too loud, with a glass of wine or an Aperol Spritz in hand. Canggu after hours has a different kind of energy. The night is still young, but things slow down a little. The good thing about this neighbourhood is that you don’t have to look very far to find live music spots perfect for a relaxed night out. Here are some of the places I enjoy, along with a few recommendations from friends.

Their live music and jukebox DJ sessions often feature songs we either grew up with or listened to back in our uni days, with the volume set just right for singing along without having to shout across the table. The vibe is more about good conversations and catching up with friends than all-night partying. Plus, they serve proper food - because...at this age, we’re just as excited about what’s on the plate as we are about what’s in the glass, right? And lastly, they wrap things up at midnight. Perfect! Because we need our beauty sleep. Google Map: Black Sand Brewery Image credit: Black Sand Brewery Instagram The Barn: Live Music Every Night A cute vintage British pub in the heart of Canggu - the kind of place you go to with friends where “let’s just stop by for one drink” somehow turns into a few hours...and a few more drinks. With cosy vibes, good food, live music, and live sports, it’s an easy spot to spend an afternoon or evening catching up with friends. Unlike some of Canggu’s bigger party venues, here you can actually enjoy the music, have a proper conversation, and remember everything the next morning (if you don't drink too much, I mean).

On top of live music, they also host plenty of events like silent discos, yard sales, movie nights, garden picnics, and more. Google Map: Full House Image credit: Full House Instagram Club House Pererenan: The New Kid on the Block with Great Live Bands One of Pererenan’s newer hangouts, Club House is quickly becoming a go-to for relaxed evenings. Live bands play every Friday and Sunday, bringing a mix of Triple J Top 100 tracks and familiar favourites you can easily sing along to. With trivia nights and live sports on rotation, it’s a laid-back spot made for easy nights with friends. Ps. They also serve steak and other things on the menu, so it’s not just a spot for drinks - you can easily make a whole evening out of it. Google Map: Club House Pererenan Image credit: Club House Pererenan Instagram Deus Ex Machina: Still One of Canggu’s Most Iconic Spots Deus Ex Machina has long been one of the places that defines Canggu’s creative scene. It's that iconic spot you really have to visit at least once when you’re here. Part cafe, part workshop, part event space, and part live music venue - it’s always had that easy mix of everything that just works. I personally have so many good memories here from my younger years watching The Hydrant play - the kind of nights that just stick with you. It’s not just a venue, it’s a Canggu classic.

The venue regularly hosts local bands and touring acts, attracting music lovers looking for something heavier and more authentic. Google Map: Gimme Shelter Bali Image credit: Gimme Shelter Instagram Maybe I’m officially at the age where a good night out means a comfortable chair, good music, and being home before midnight (okay, maybe not always). But I love that there are now more options to go out without sacrificing tomorrow’s plans. So grab your friends, find a spot you like, and enjoy Canggu one song and one drink at a time. This list will keep growing as my friends and I discover more interesting live music spots - so consider this a work in progress

Rosita Batik Shibori: Empowering Communities Through Sustainable Fashion

I’ve always loved wearing local Indonesian brands - there are more and more cool ones emerging, and many are just as good as, if not, even better than international labels. Among these creative brands, one in particular caught my attention: Rosita Batik Shibori, a label that preserves Indonesia’s batik heritage while giving it a modern, thoughtful twist. Behind every meaningful brand is a personal journey, and this is the story of Rosita Batik Shibori - a journey of creativity, sustainability, and community. Shibori: The Craft That Makes Each Piece One-of-a-KindFrom a hobby to sustainable fashion, to empowering the communityFrom Java to the worldA passion that brings joyRosita’s message for Indonesian UMKM (micro, small, and medium enterprises)Where to Find Rosita Batik Shibori You may also like this article: The Vibrant Journey of Xoxo Bali Shibori: The Craft That Makes Each Piece One-of-a-Kind The name Rosita Batik Shibori is from the founder's name, Rosita, combined with the shibori technique employed and how the business started - she used to sell batik, and even now she often combines the two techniques together. Shibori is a fabric resist-dyeing technique created by folding, binding, and compressing the fabric before it is dyed. The patterns are formed through these resist methods, making each piece unique. Rosita chose this technique because not many local Indonesian brands work with shibori, and because the patterns always turn out differently every time, giving each piece a special, almost limited-edition feel. Each piece of Rosita Batik is made through a long and thoughtful process that requires patience From a hobby to sustainable fashion, to empowering the community Rosita Batik Shibori was founded in 2017 in Surabaya, West Java, starting simply as a hobby. Then came the creative joy of choosing colours. In the beginning, Rosita used chemical dyes because they offered a wide range of colour options. However, as time went by and the hobby grew into a business, Rosita began to feel the negative impact of working with chemical dyes. She experienced skin irritation and health issues, and became increasingly concerned about the waste produced and its impact on the environment. Eventually, she made the decision to switch to natural dyes, and that was the moment the brand evolved into a sustainable fashion label. Of course, the change came at a cost… quite literally. Production became more expensive, and the selling prices had to adjust accordingly. But slowly, Rosita Batik Shibori found the right market; people who shared the same values. As demand grew, so did production, this led to another meaningful step: hiring women from the village of Gamplong. By employing local housewives, the brand created opportunities for them to stay productive while earning additional income. What she thought was a small initiative turned out to have a significant impact, supporting not only the women themselves but also their families.

It began with small exhibitions around Surabaya, before expanding to Jakarta and later Bali. Rosita then participated in fashion shows that helped introduce the brand to a wider audience. She also actively hosted workshops, and all of this hard work eventually led to a major opportunity: showcasing her work in France at the Who’s Next Paris event, supported by L’Adresse Agency Paris and Pelindo Indonesia. She was over the moon when she secured an international buyer from Greece. The hustle didn’t stop there. Rosita Batik Shibori just had its second international opportunity - a pop-up event in Kobe, Japan, supported by Indonesia’s Ministry of Trade in collaboration with IPTC Osaka and Bateeg Japan. Out of 190 participants who registered for the programme, only 16 were selected, and Rosita is incredibly proud to be among them. The event featured a series of activities including pop-up exhibitions, B2B showcases, business matching sessions with several Japanese fashion companies, photoshoots, and a fashion show. Some of the newest collections of Rosita Batik Shibori showcased in Japan A passion that brings joy One of the most meaningful journeys for Rosita Batik Shibori has been the strong relationships built with its customers. It means the world to her every time she sees enthusiastic faces at exhibitions - customers excitedly discovering new patterns and exploring the latest collections. The brand also takes pride in creating employment opportunities within the community. Employees are not seen merely as staff, but as partners, fostering a shared sense of belonging as the business continues to grow together. Beyond that, the journey has opened doors to meaningful connections with fellow entrepreneurs, allowing the team to exchange knowledge, collaborate, and grow through shared experiences.

She encourages more women to enter the industry, noting that they, too, can play a leading role in Indonesia’s economy. Through consistent quality and continuous improvement, she hopes local products can confidently compete on the international stage. “To the next generation, don’t be afraid to try new things, to create, and to keep exploring. Collaborate, build connections, and support fellow entrepreneurs.
