Traveling with children in Bali

Bali is an amazing place to travel with children. Not only because of its endless possibilities and nature, but because of its people.
Balinese people is warm, open and friendly with people traveling and exploring their country. And they are extremely kind and even more friendly with children, specially toddlers and babies.
You can find easily baby food, napies, and children seats in restaurants. Also children will love the fresh juices and smoothies produced with local tropical fruits.
The main inconvenients are:
A) non potable tap water. Remember to boil water before cleaning dummies, milk bottles or anything the children use to eat.
B) pool areas. Never stop looking at children when in a pool area. NEVER.
In Ubud we stayed in Alam Sari, approx 20mins north of the town center close to the Keliki village. Staff in this hotel is extremely friendly and kind. Our children lovel the Vanilla and the banana milkshake. The vanilla was harvested from the organic garden and tasted incredible. The tamarin juice was deliciuous. They also had a healthy kids menu with good sized portions.
To move around we hired from Alam Sari a local driver called Wayang. We showed us the water temple, Jatiluwih rice fields and drove us around Ubud at a quiet pace among the busy roads of central Bali.
In Gili T we stayed in Eden Cottages. Here the staff is also friendly with kids and prepare delicious banana pancakes at breakfast. Susanne the manager and owner will ensure you have a relaxing and fun stay in the island.
Children will love to travel around the island in the carts pushed by ponnies.
To travel around South Bali we stayed in Nusa Dua in the Marriot Courtyard hotel. This hotel has an impressive pool good for childen and kids club. Their staff is also extremely child friendly.
To travel around South Bali we hired Kadex Smile. He was also knowledgable of the area and kind with children.
