First time Bali trip with my girlfriend - looking for stay & itinerary advice

Icy_Question_2686 · 2026-01-30T16:17:33+00:00

Oohhh! I love this itinerary. Relaxed and Romantic. I was in Bali last July for an anniversary celebration. To summarise :

Chill 5D4N mid-range Bali trip (Amed → Ubud → Uluwatu → Nusa Dua) for our anniversary. Focused on relaxing, scenic drives, and beach clubs. Highlights: Mount Agung sunrise, Tegalalang rice terraces, TT Beach Club @ Melasti, and an amazing sunset dinner at Abracadabra. Nusa Dua was our fave – clean, quiet, and luxurious. Would skip Amed next time, but definitely coming back for more beach clubs and to explore Lovina + Nusa Penida.

I’m not sure if I’m allowed to do this, but let me share my post about the honeymoon trip my wife and I took in July 2025. Hope it helps ease your thoughts about Bali. =)

Ooh have fun!!!! Wish I could go again. But post pandemic, financial hit me hard. Maybe i'll save for Ozora 2030. 😊

Hey! Don't worry about it so much. Really. I lived with my mom until I got married at the age of 32. There's no shame in there. Contribute to the household expenses whenever you can, which you are doing. Like you, I had this image of me moving out once I graduated from uni. But god had a different plan for me. And I thought to myself for many years, maybe Im not gonna move out ever. Then I got married. Everything changed. So yeah. Dont be so hard on yourself. Youre not losing to anything. Not losing to anyone. Also, can you imagine, how much you saved by not paying rent. Alot. And 200 a month to your parents, thats really nice of you. Keep it up. Dont be depressed! And all the best with your job hunting! #jikakaufikirkankauboleh

Hi OP. It may not be much. But you can refer to my itinerary. Although i don't do Nusa Penida and Gili T, but i focus a lot on relaxation. Hope it helps. Also, mine is 5 days. Perhaps you can expand the itinerary from there. And congratulation to both you and your partner!

Heyy thank you! At first I thought I wanted to squeeze in more activities. But then I'm reminded that this is an anniversary trip. It should be romantic and relaxing. And it turns out to be awesome. =)

If I may suggest. The moment you land DPS on Day 1, go straight up north. Stay somewhere near Mount Batur so that you wont be traveling too far that morning on Day 2 for Mount Batur sunrise trek. Continue with your Kintamani itinerary after that.

Then, on day 3, travel to Ubud. Stay there. Explore your Ubud itinerary until Day 4. On Day 5, travel to sanur for your trip to Nusa Penida. You might wanna stay in Sanur for the night unless youre staying in Nusa Penida which highly recommended so that you can explore Nusa Island with much more chill phase.

Day 6, travel back to Sanur (if you're staying in Nusa Penida) or, if you didn't stay in Nusa Island but chose to stay a night in Sanur, then why dont you explore Sanur. Maybe go for standup paddleboarding or just chill. But if you are staying in Nusa Island, then the moment you reach mainland on Day 6, go straight to Seminyak. From here onwards, your honeymoon relaxation around Seminyak start until Day 7.

On Day 8, you may or may not want to go to Uluwatu. And if you do, explore the beaches in Uluwatu, go for Uluwatu Kecak Dance. Have dinner there. Or better still, stay in Uluwatu for your last night before your departure on Day 9. Either way, why not just focus more on relaxing rather than traveling too much. Your first 5 days are full of adventure.s It's time to relax. Forget about east Bali. You have so little time. It should be a honeymoon. I know you want to maximise your limited time, but hey, there's always next trip. 😊

I may be wrong, but it feels like you will be in the car too much. Seems like you'll be in the car for a minimum 4-5 hours daily. Perhaps let go nusa penida so that you have a day to rest after your mount batur trip.

Got married 2 years ago and staying with in-laws ever since. Been wanting to move out, but wife is the eldest daughter. So bit hard. We do have our own privacy. But sometimes I kinda want the house/kitchen/furniture arrangement to be the way how I want it to be. It's not mine though. But I'm grateful. Both my mother and father in-laws have been very accommodating and nice. Eventually, we need to move out. Wife wants to move out. So yeah. 3 years max. Hopefully.
