Set on the beautiful, gleaming white sands of Sanur beach, the Bali Hyatt Sanur faces a tranquil lagoon, fringed as far as the eye can see by a coral reef, and set amongst 36 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens, with more than 600 different species of flora and fauna.
Driving Information
Getting Around
The island is 140 kilometres (87 miles) long by 80 kilometres (50 miles) wide and travelling by hire car, stopping when you want to explore the villages, mountains and beaches, is a great way to discover the beauty of Bali. About two hours' drive north-east of Denpasar Airport and Kuta, you'll arrive at Candi Dasa. From here you can explore the coast further north, or return to drive inland into the hills. The central inland village of Ubud is about one hour from the airport and Kuta. Along the way you'll pass many villages and find that most of them specialise in handicrafts of a particular type, such as exquisite woodcarvings and unique jewellery.
Car Hire
Car hire is easy on Bali. Large international rental companies offer good deals, but local companies are very competitive. The most popular rental vehicle is the Jimny - a small, Suzuki Katana jeep with ample ground clearance. The Jimny has a tiny 800 cc engine, two seats in the front and two to four bench seats in the back. The larger Toyota Kijang seats six and is very economical and lightweight.The majority of hire cars have manual 'stick shift' gears as opposed to automatic transmission. Remember, traffic drives on the left.
Car Hire with Driver
Known in Bali as 'chartered transport'. Prices will vary, depending on the places you wish to visit. Negotiate with the driver before agreeing a deal and check what extra costs will have to be paid such as petrol, meals, etc.
