Bali is great place and also ready for traveler with tight budget. However don’t forget to visit Lombok while you travel to Bali, another land of gods

Nusa Dua is very expensive and overrated. And as it’s a gated compound it doesn’t feel like Bali at all. Better off staying in Seminyak in my opinion.

I just returned from Bali for my first time My brother lives in Honolulu and I have been to Hawaii 6 times Hawaii even if it is more expensive it is far more beautiful than Bali I was really disappointed in the beaches there and got tired of the hawkers on the beach and the lack of toilet paper!! Unless you stay in a luxury hotel in Nusa Dua and are basically isolated from the real Bali you will have to deal with horrible traffic, dirty beaches, or Kuta which is a nightmare!

sure, bali is still the world’s most exotic island in the world that you can’t compare anywhere on any place in the world, there’s distinctively different of what you ever see before…

I like your analysis as I have argued for years that a trip to Bali is a better deal than Hawaii. My family members still travel to Hawaii nearly every year and I am the only one who has been to Bali.

In February I posted an analysis on my Loyalty Traveler blog showing how a person could go to Bali while earning elite status on American Airlines, and gaining several free hotel nights by combining several hotel and airline promotions running at that time.

There is a photo of the Laguna Resort at Nusa Dua, Bali in the post.

I enjoyed your analysis as hotel travel economics is the focus of my blog.

What a great post! I think we often fall into the assumption that nearby or commonly visited destinations are cheaper than more exotic ones, and it’s often not true.
