Sanur is where the Dutch forces landed in 1904 to begin their “conquest” of Bali. Later the "in" artist community - before every one moved up to Ubud. Later still, Bali’s first beach resort. In addition to being home to some of Bali's best known hotels Sanur is also a very cozy, comfortable residential area. As such it is much quieter than Kuta and has more "Balinese character" than the newer Nusa Dua resort area.
Sanur has a well deserved reputation for magic (just ask anyone about room 327 in the Inna Grand Bali Beach Hotel...). Being closer to Ubud and many of the island's more important temples and other tourist attractions, Sanur is a good all around choice for families and those wishing explore Bali but still be close to Bali's nightlife in Kuta and Seminyak. FYI, in order to remain objective, hotels are listed in alphabetical order. We don't favor any hotel for any reason.
