ULUWATU or SEMINYAK? 🌴
After spending two days in Seminyak, I was reminded how different these two sides of Bali actually feel.
Uluwatu is cliffs, beaches, surf, sunsets and space.
You come here for the views, the beach clubs, the slower mornings and that slightly wild Bali feeling.
Seminyak is much more walkable. Restaurants, cafés, shops, spas — everything is close, and you can actually walk from one place to another. It feels busier, more social and definitely more convenient.
For couples, I’d actually recommend spending 2–3 days max in Seminyak and then moving south to Uluwatu.
For families or people who prefer comfort, easy access and having everything around them, Seminyak can also be a really good base.
And for me? I still love coming back to Uluwatu. 🤍
Neither is “the better Bali.”
They’re just two completely different ways of experiencing it.
