A Day of Wonder at Taman Budaya Garuda Wisnu Kencana

Our day trip to Taman Budaya Garuda Wisnu Kencana was filled with awe and discovery. To streamline our visit, we purchased tickets online in advance, ensuring a smooth entry through the dedicated fast-track lane—a handy tip for avoiding any last-minute hassles.

The shuttle bus whisked us from the entrance towards the Garuda Wisnu Temple area, where a lively scene of souvenir shops and charming restaurants awaited. An impressive amphitheater hosted hourly shows, included in the ticket, adding cultural flair to our visit.

From there, we opted for a leisurely walk—immersing ourselves in the scenic beauty—towards the main Garuda Wisnu statue. Its towering presence against the backdrop of Denpasar City was simply breathtaking. 

Throughout our exploration, the park’s staff were friendly and helpful, providing guidance and answering our queries about the various shows and activities available. We chose to wander on foot, soaking in the architectural marvels and lush landscapes, though a buggy ride option was available for those preferring a quicker ascent.

 After a fulfilling day of exploration and cultural immersion, we treated ourselves to ice cream—a perfect end to our memorable visit.

Taman Budaya Garuda Wisnu Kencana stands as a testament to Bali’s rich cultural heritage and artistic prowess. It’s more than just a monumental statue; it’s a gateway to understanding and appreciating the island’s vibrant traditions and natural beauty—a must-visit destination for travellers seeking to delve deeper into Bali’s cultural tapestry.

Bintang Bali Resort, Kuta

During our recent holiday in Bali, we had the pleasure of staying at the Bintang Bali Resort, and we absolutely loved it. Nestled in more than six hectares of tropical gardens, this beachfront property in the heart of Kuta offers a delightful blend of contemporary Balinese architecture and modern amenities.

From the moment we arrived, I was captivated by the resort’s architecture, which truly embodies the Balinese vibe. Our room was spacious and overlooked the lush backyard garden, providing a serene spot to relax and unwind. Each room is equipped with a balcony, tea and coffee making facilities, a safe deposit box, and free Wi-Fi, ensuring a comfortable stay.

One of the highlights of our stay was the breakfast. Every morning, we were treated to a vast array of options, including many Balinese delicacies that we were excited to try. The variety was impressive, and it was a delightful way to start our day.

The resort’s facilities are extensive and cater to all ages. The huge swimming pool, complete with a cascading waterfall and Jacuzzi, quickly became a family favourite. Our kids enjoyed the separate pool area designed just for them, while we appreciated the swim-up bar and the health club and sauna.

The beach restaurant and spa were excellent, and we dined at the resort’s restaurant several times. The food was amazing, with a good mix of local and international dishes. They even serve some Indian food at breakfast, which was a pleasant surprise. For those seeking more variety, there are many restaurants nearby, as well as the Discovery Shopping Mall and Lippo Mall Kuta within walking distance.

We spent our days exploring Bali but always looked forward to returning to the resort for a late swim and dinner by the pool. It was perfect for our family, allowing us to unwind and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

The staff at Bintang Bali Resort were friendly and accommodating, enhancing our overall experience. While the service wasn’t exceptional, it was certainly good and met our needs.

If you’re planning a trip to Bali with kids, I highly recommend Bintang Bali Resort. Its prime location, extensive facilities, and family-friendly atmosphere make it one of the best places to stay in Kuta. We look forward to returning on our next Bali adventure!
