Thinking of flying to Bali for your next holiday? Most tourists choose to stay in Kuta as the town is closest to the airport and also one of the most popular destinations on the island. However, not so far from Kuta is Seminyak, a sophisticated and lavish neighborhood filled with a plethora of stylish restaurants and bars, as well as high-end resorts and boutique hotels. Stay in Seminyak and skip the wild and overly populated Kuta. Here are some reasons why you should stay in Seminyak Bali.

There are tons of delicious foods to try and a copious amount of ‘Instagrammable’ spots for your feed.
3. Go on a shopping spree at high-end boutiques
Staying in Seminyak gives you endless choices for a shopping spree! Walk down Jl Kayu Aya and you will see a strip of tiny chic boutiques from big brand names such as Uma & Leopold, Bamboo Blonde and Bali Boatshed to Seafolly and Gooseberry Intimates.
