kuta's good if you wanna get people trying to sell you stuff the second you walk outside your room! (i seriously had people dragging me by the arm into their shop & they dont give up! espically if you're down the little lane near the bombing monument)
i was in sanur last yr...its only 30min drive from kuta (if that!). its a really nice place, friendly people, they dont hassle ya
monkey temple in ubud's good...but it was mating season when we were there so they were really fiesty!
the mountains (up near the volcano) are good too..but there's a fair few people up there trying to sell ya stuff..they dont give up either
sanur beach's got some really good people doing hair, massages, manicures & pedicures..good prices too!

i'll write more up later

Bali is the best!! Kuta is really good, the shopping is awesome, very very cheap... Kuta Lagoon Resort is in the main street of Kuta, has a 500m long pool and is really cheap...Nusa Dua has all the water sports and is only about a 25 min drive from Kuta...parasailing was only A$10...very cheap. drinks and food are also heaps cheap....about $3 for a cocktail. Bali would be great for schoolies under 18...cause there is no legal drinking age. Kuta beach isnt very nice, so a hotel with a good pool is a plus. and as for shop owners hassling you in Kuta...just smile, say no thanks and keep walking. and make sure you bargain to get the best deals! if they wont take ur final offer, start to walk out of the shop, they will chase after you, agreeing to your price. The Elephant Safari Park was good....but very expensive. Monkey forest in Ubud was fun...but Turtle Island (out from Nusa Dua) was pretty crap. There is so much to do, and its all so much fun, you will never want to come home!

I am so Jealous!!! I wanted to go to bali for schoolies, but none of my friends would come with me :(
I've been 5 times and we always stay in legian.. its good cos its not right in the middle of town, but its still really close
I love bali... its great, the people are nice, the weathers hot, the surf is pumpin, the alcohol is flowing and best of all its CHEAP
If ur going to bali for schoolies be sure to got to BOUNTY and PADDYS in the main street of Kuta, we went there almost every night and got sooo loose!! Get jam Jars and Jungle juice - 2 for the price of 1 every night :D
I'm saving up to go again in April, so anyone who missed out on schoolies like me feel free to save up and come along :D
Have a safe trip, have fun and most of all DONT BOYCOTT BALI

Stay in Legian or Kuta. That's where the most shops/resturants/bars are. There is a live band at the new Paddy's ever second night. Next door to that is the Bounty ship, they have karaoke and pool tables. Up the top of the bounty ship they play mosty R&B mixes, apparently there is also a dance club there too but I haven't seen it.

Down the street from that next to the bali bombing memorial is I think another club that plays dance music. I think it's also air conditioned. Friday or Saturday night after 3am you can try double six which is a massive air conditioned dance club. Don't go there any other time because it will be mostly empty. The hard rock isn't far either although it is more expensive.

The beach is good during the day. You can hire surf boards and body boards for really cheap. Don't walk around from 12 - 2.30, sit by the pool because it's just too hot do do anything.

Do some research about prices. The bali guys are really good at knowing if someone is new to bali and will try to rip you off. They tried to sell my friend a hat for 170,000rp something which you can get for 10,000.

I'm going to Bali on Saturday and staying at the whole rose. Never stayed there before so hopefully it will be good.

The bounty is awesome. 24 hour pool and most importantly pool bar. You can get beers for around 8000rp which is about $1.20, not 10 cents. But at some places during happy hour you can get beers for less than $1.
