The Canggu area is currently under the spotlight from tourists and locals due to the nightly noise from party guests. Tourists often make parties loudly until dawn.

The Batubolong area is not inferior to Berawa. Both have exotic beaches, but this location is preferred by tourists because there are many restaurants, beach clubs, and other facilities at affordable prices. We quickly find various types of accommodation with their style and reasonable prices.

Most Bali Hotel Room Rates are Back Up. Do You Get Discount Rates?

September 5, 2022September 5, 2022News

The development of the tourism business on the island of Bali has increased drastically since the Indonesian government opened Bali tourism after the COVID-19 pandemic. Previously, Bali’s economy had contracted minus 11% for more than two years due to the spread of the COVID-19 virus in Indonesia, especially in Bali. However, the economy of the island of the gods is increasing daily. The arrival of foreign tourists to Bali continues to show an increase. Thus, hotel room occupancy has also increased. Likewise, tourist visits to tourist attractions have also increased.

On the other hand, hotel room prices have also increased. Previously, all hotels in Bali lowered their room rates drastically. It is because no tourists come to this paradise island. However, hotel room rates have started to increase and are approaching normal now. Many tourists cannot find cheap room rates in Bali as before. Bali hotel room prices have gone up again. Previously, we quickly found five-star hotels with room prices under one million Rupiah. However, now it is different. Tourists are hard to find such reasonable prices anymore. Most hotels already offer standard rates. Five-star prices, for example, already provide prices above 2 million Rupiah.

Several Factors for Increasing Hotel Room Prices in Bali

Several factors cause hotel room prices in Bali to rise significantly. These factors include:

Increased Tourist Visits
The arrival of tourists to Bali, especially foreign tourists, is a significant factor in the increase in hotel room prices in Bali. It is in line with the supply and demand market. Most hotel room occupancy in Bali has increased. This situation is very much different from the previous condition. The demand for hotel rooms in Bali has increased considerably. So it affects the occupancy of hotel rooms.
Increase in Hotel and Restaurant Operational Costs
Since the Covid-19 outbreak on the island of Bali, hotel operational costs have continued to run as usual. It is because hotel owners and management want to maintain the quality of their services. They try to keep all the facilities and services to guests even though the business is dead. And in fact, many owners close their hotels and restaurants by the risk destroy their facilities. Significant expenses during a pandemic have affected the financial and operational costs of the hotel. In addition, the essential ingredients of food and beverages have also increased. So, the owner or hotel management returns their room prices to normal.
Increase in Oil Prices
The rising oil prices in Indonesia also affected the increase in hotel room prices. Of course, it affects the essential ingredients of food and beverages.

How to Find and Get Cheap Hotel Prices?

The increase in hotel room prices in Bali is volatile and depends on the conditions and situation of tourism itself. The position of Bali’s tourism has not recovered 100%, which has made many parties take short-term policies. It means that the increase in the price of this room is short and may decrease or vice versa stay at a high price.

Here are tips for getting cheap or affordable hotel room rates:

Join the Early Bird Deal
Many hotels offer these special rates for those who book their rooms in advance. If you plan a vacation to Bali 3 months or six months earlier, this Early Bird Deal offer is the right choice.
Book a hotel room for the long term
Many hotels offer special rates for travelers who want to enjoy long vacations starting from 1 week or more. It’s a good idea to contact the hotel directly to get this special price because it is rarely announced in online bookings.
Choose a hotel location that is outside the tourist area.
One way to get a more affordable hotel room rate is to choose a hotel away from the tourist centers. It is, of course, cheaper room rates than hotels in tourist centers such as Kuta, Nusa Dua, Sanur, Canggu, and Ubud. It does not mean choosing a hotel far from the tourist center. However, hotels near the tourist centers like ours offer these special rates.
Choosing a new hotel
Newly opened hotels or new hotels generally offer promotional prices at the beginning of the hotel’s operation. You can search for information about New hotels in Bali that suit your choice.
Choose a hotel that offers a special package or special deal.
In addition to regular prices, the hotel also offers special prices or discounts. You have many choices of hotels for your accommodation during your holiday in Bali. Prices for these special packages are usually provided by hotels on certain days, especially in the low season.
Choose a holiday in the Low Season and Avoid the High or Peak Season.
Hotel prices in the low season are relatively much lower than in the high and peak seasons. The hotel applies additional fees in the form of a High Season or Peak Season Surcharge. The surcharge amount and its validity period depending on the hotel’s policy. Here is the Low, High, and Peak Season periods in Bali:

Low Season: January 11 – June 30
High Season: July 01 – September 30
Peak Season: December 20 – January 10

Cold Temperature Covers Bali, Tourists Feel Comfortable

July 25, 2022July 25, 2022News

Cold temperatures blanketed parts of the eastern Indonesian archipelago, including the island of Bali. This has been going on since early July this year. The cause of this temperature change is the cold wind in Australia that blows to Indonesia, especially the islands south of the equator. Thus, this impacts decreasing temperatures in the eastern Indonesian archipelago. As in Bali, the temperature on this paradise island is usually 27°C – 33°C. However, the current temperature in Bali is in the range of 12°C – 27°C. Of course, this is a cold temperature for the Balinese. However, for tourists who usually live in cold temperatures, the current temperature in Bali is cool. The temperature is good for travelling because it is not hot.

The Temperature in the Mountains, Favorite Tourist Places in Bali

The current cold temperature in Bali is also felt by residents and tourists who live in mountainous areas. Temperatures in mountainous areas are cooler than in coastal areas. As in the Bedugul and Kintamani areas, the lowest temperature at night reaches 14°C, and during the day, it reaches 21°C. This is a very cold temperature for Balinese people who live in a warm atmosphere. For those who prefer to travel in cold temperatures, now is the right time for a vacation to Bali. Tourist spots such as Ubud Village are favourite places because the temperature during the day is very cool and very good for sightseeing. Tourists can enjoy the atmosphere of Ubud comfortably and see Balinese life in the countryside. Likewise, tourists can enjoy a leisurely stroll in the city of Ubud while visiting a beautiful boutique shop or gallery to find unique items to take home.

Causes of Cold Temperature in the Southern Part of the Indonesian Archipelago

According to BMKG (Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency), the cause this cold temperature is 2 factors. The two factors are:

FIRST: The nature of the air mass in Australia is cold and dry. A relatively high air pressure pattern in Australia causes air masses to move from Australia to Indonesia (known as the Australian Cold Monsoon). The Australian monsoon wind blows towards Indonesia through the waters of the Indonesian Ocean. Meanwhile, the sea surface temperature is also relatively colder, resulting in the temperature in some areas in Indonesia, especially the southern part of the equator (Java, Bali, and Nusa Tenggara).

SECOND: less cloud and rain on the islands of Java, Bali, Lombok, and Flores have seen quite significantly in the last few days. It also reduces the water vapour content in the atmosphere. Physically, water vapour and water are quite effective in storing heat energy. Thus, the low vapour content in the atmosphere causes the radiation energy released by Earth into space at night to be not stored in the atmosphere. Thus, the energy used to increase the atmospheric temperature near the Indonesian archipelago’s surface is insignificant.
