I'm Not Eating That

Happy new year people!!!

I'm an american living in China and seriously thinking of coming to Bali for Spring Festival/and my birthday.  I wanted to know what are some good places to stay as I'll prob want to come for like 2-3 weeks.  I just want someplace, thats close to the beach and parties, as i plan on tanning, relaxing and partying when i'm not touring the sites.  also what part of the island is best for nightlife? Thanks in advance for your help!

Hey buddy how are you? there to place to stay in bali along the beach with good night life.
1. Kuta we all know is famous fro it surf sun hot babes (topless babe most of the times) and the night life, but kuta is very low class (a.k.a aussie in bintang shirt and bounty and paddy thing on them drunk off there head also not to mention the hooker and the drug dealers), a lot of cheap hotel to stay at
2. Seminyak is a much nicer area it just 5-10 min drive up(on the bike down the back road if not it all depend on traffic) north of kuta, seminyak has all the mid to high end shopping and restaurants, seminyak has a lot of villa and high end hotels, the beach in seminyak are much nicer less people easier to relax. now the night life in seminyak is more high class it where all the expats in bali go and if you live in bali the clubs in seminyak is the place to be.

If you would like any futur information on name of clubs to go to restaurant and where to stay please contact me
hope this has ben useful infromation
and maybe we can meet up while you are in bali

There are plenty of places to visit and see in Bali. If you want life, then Kuta is the place to go. The place is full of hotels etc, I have always pretty much enjoyed Poppies one and the choice of hotels there. Try Kedins. AP Inn, Pesona Beach Hotel, Masa Inn, all can be found on line. If you are staying for a few weeks considering renting a motorbike as there is little public transport in Kuta, the taxis whilst everywhere will cost as the traffic is nightmarish in the evenings through Kuta.
The night life is full on at both ends of Poppies 1 and there are more than enough bars, clubs, restaurants, and the like through the area.
Watch for drugs as there are a lot of stings there and offers from ladies on motorbikes and the like, saying that, it is a great place to chill and party and then chill and then party more
