Be it enjoying views of the orange sunset, relaxing under the shade of palm trees or scuba diving to explore the world under the blue waters, Sanur is a magical land waiting to be explored.
There are a number of things to do in Sanur – the most obvious being touring its beaches. You can walk or pedal along the Cemara Beach, view an orange sunset at the Mertasari Beach, canoe at the Sindhu Beach or simply unwind at the Semawang Beach.
You can visit the Serangan Turtle Island to see the protected greenback turtles. If you're at the right time of the year, you'll be able to join an Olive ridley sea turtle release at Sanur Beach. For a bit of adventure during your Sanur trip, dive into the world of exciting water sports like surfing, snorkelling, parasailing and jet skiing. To add a more local touch to your trip, you can even ask a fisherfolk to take you around on a traditional boat. Round off your day of adventure by enjoying a hot plate of Nasi goreng at Sector Bar & Restaurant.

Unfortunately, our flight from Perth was cancelled so we lost 2 days/nights of our holiday but the trip was perfect besides that. The Hyatt also kindly refunded one night which they were not obliged to do but we thought was a very fair compromise. Easy to get around usually, but on this trip, the traffic outside of hotel was mental due to the grand opening of the new Bali Icon Shopping Mall just up the street and the hotel road was randomly closed at various times - which was a pain. Avoid Indonesian school holidays - the traffic is 10X worse according to drivers. We ate a lot in the hotel for convenience - family group of 16 with ages ranging from 2-62 so it worked well for us and everyone was happy. Pool is fantastic and again, ticked everyone's boxes. We had plenty of spa treatments outside of the hotel, but my favorite hands down was in the hotel spa - outstanding.

We loved how quiet it was here - shop keepers don't hassle you to look in their shops, they're happy for you to wander in if you want to. Food is affordable but not super cheap. Beach is quiet - no annoying sales people or endless jetskis or speed boats. No waves though so you can't surf.
Sanur beach isn’t that nice.

Sanur beach isn’t that nice. Brownish sand and I inviting water. Most of the restaurants along the beach feel a bit like tourist traps and there are lots of stall vendors that sell cheap souvenirs that hassle you as you walk along. Make sure you book a decent resort with a nice pool as you’ll need it to escape to for some peace. Despite it being advertised as the quiet option, I found Sanur chaotic, busy and not charming at all.

I love Sanur and will definitely return plus it's a great base to travel from. There's a 6k walkway which is full of resorts, shops and restaurants offering all types of food and drink options from local cheap eats to more expensive dining. You can hire deckchairs, bikes, get a massage, by a sarong plus it suits families and oldies without the noisy party goers. You can catch ferries from the far end, over to the islands. Also the new ICON shopping mall is opening soon, which I'm not sure is good or bad for the locals. The good thing too, walking along the walkway, is that it's mostly under the shade of beautiful trees and with the sea breeze, it's nice and cool.
Sanur was great.
27 May 2024
Sanur was great. Relaxed, a little quieter than Legian. Lots of restaurants, good shopping and the beaches are much nicer. There is a walking track along the beach for runners, walkers and bike riders. You don't get hassled as much on this side of the island. Will definitely come back.
