There are many family friendly hotels in Bali although rooms are very limited and hard to come by during the holiday season. So you will have to book in advance. If you are looking for a hotels with Kids Clubs, family rooms, babysitting services and a range of activities for children, you will find them listed below. Those with childrens’ facilities tend to be the larger all-in 4 star and 5 star international chain resorts that have a Kids Club or Resort for children aged 3 to 12 years old. Activities include cultural activities such as Balinese dance, offering making. Other activities include games, drawing, story telling and supervised playgrounds. Professional childcare services are also available at larger hotels. Hotels with water slides include the Nikko Hotel and Westin Nusa Dua.
In Ubud however, hotels there do not have Kids clubs, extra large swimming pools or playgrounds as Ubud has long been accepted as a honeymoon and couples destination. However, most hotels, including luxury hotel villas accept children under 12 yrs old at no extra charge. Only a handful of villa hotels in Ubud strictly do not accept children. There is nothing that can be done about this unfortunately.
First of all, you might want to decide which part of Bali you would like to stay in. In general, there are 3 main areas ; Central Bali which is where Ubud town is, South Bali (north of Bali airport) which we shall say covers the coastal towns of Kuta-Legian, Seminyak, Sanur , and Bali’s Southern Peninsular (south of Bali airport) where Nusa Dua, Benoa and Jimbaran are located. Most family holidays are centered around the beach resorts as that is where you will find the most activities.
For families with 3 kids or more, you’ll have a tougher time looking for a hotel which can accommodate all of you into 1 room, especially if you are on a lower budget, but there are places you can stay at. Try Holiday Inn Baruna Bali in Kuta , Bali Mandira, The Breezes Resort and Spa in Seminyak or Sanur Paradise Family Suites which has apartments with kitchens and facilities for children of all ages. Or you could stay in a villa such as Sienna Villas in Seminyak or Villa de Daun in Legian-Kuta which has 3 and 4 bedroom villas.
Here is a list of child friendly and family friendly hotels. Some of these hotels have family suites, while others have 2 bedroom family rooms.
