Latest Sanur hotel reviews
This was my first ever holiday cooking class and it has left me wanting more. Booking by email was a breeze no deposit required. Dewi collected us from out hotel in Sanur and took us to the morning market. That was a wonderful education and something I had never done in all the trips to Bali. On arrival at Sanur Beach villas , which is where the cooking class is set up in a purpose built outdoor kitchen, we were given a lovely breakfast by the pool .
After breakfast we started the prep work and went one by one through a variety of dishes including Sulawesi chicken , beef rendang, spring rolls, fish soup, ikan pepes (fish in banana leaves) and green pancakes filled with roasted coconut . We even made coconut milk from grating the coconut we had bought at the market that morning. You could be as hands on as you wanted and ask questions throughout the morning. We all had a turn at making the wrapper for the spring rolls. They were like a fine pancake and you filled and rolled them while warm before deep frying. I must say the fact that we all ate each dish as it was ready meant we were eating all morning and left the class very full indeed. Did not need lunch that day I can tell you.
The five hours of cooking flew by and left me wanting to go back to try some different recipes on my return to Sanur this year.

The white sand beach runs the length of the town. It's protected by a reef making the water calm. High tide offers swimming and other sea based activities. At low tide the beach can be explored for marine life.
A beachfront walk runs for over 4km. Walking or cycling it you'll pass the private beaches of many hotels. Inbetween these there are many bars and restaurants. There are also many stalls where locals sell tourist items.

Surfer's may think of staying in Kuta but Sanur offers lessons for those that want to surf using the wind instead of the power of the waves... In Sanur they have a great kite surfing school (Bali Kitesurfing School) where you may learn the art of kite surfing. An introduction course for 1 hour is around 300,000-400,000 IDR...
The school also have some good safety routines which is especially important for beginners of kite surfing.

THIS IS A NEW ANIMAL PARK SITUATED 35 MINUTES BY CAR FROM SANUR. IT HAS LOADS TO DO FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY. MAKE SURE YOU BRING YOUR BATHERS AND A TOWEL AND SPEND THE WHOLE DAY . THEY HAVE AIR CONDITIONED BUSES TO TAKE YOU AROUND THE PARK. YOU GET TO SEE WILD ANIMALS FROM AFRICA AND ASIA UP CLOSE. WE LOVED THE LIONS & TIGERS THE MOST. THE PARK ALSO FEATURES AREAS WHERE YOU GET TO FEED & PAT THE ANIMALS. (TIGER CUB & ELEPHANT) MY DAUGHTER HAD A WONDERFUL TIME PATTNG THE TIGER CUB, FEEDING THE ELEPHANTS. SHE HAD A SWIM IN THE POOL & A PLAY IN THE WATER PARK. THE DAY WE WENT, MID-WEEK WAS DESERTED SO SHE HAD THE POOLS TO HERSELF . THEY ALSO HAD AN AMUSEMENT PARK WITH RIDES. YOU PAY AN UPFRONT ENTRANCE FEE THAT INCLUDES PATTING THE TIGER CUB & RIDES IN THE PARK. THE ONLY EXTRA WE HAD TO PAY WAS TO FEED THE ELEPHANTS. WE TOOK AN ESKY WITH DRINKS & SNACKS IN TO SAVE BUYING ANY FOOD THERE. COULD HAVE STAYED LONGER IF I HAD BROUGHT BATHERS. IT IS EXTREMELY HOT & IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE TO COOL DOWN. LUCKILY MY DAIGHTER HAD BATHERS & A TOWEL WITH HER.

EARLY MORNINGS ARE ALWAYS A GREAT TIME TO WALK ALONG THE BEACH.....AND AT SANUR BEACH IT IS NO DIFFERENT...GREAT TIME TO CLEAR YOUR THOUGHTS AS YOU WANDER .... SANUR WAS ONE OF THE FIRST BEACES TO BECOME A LITTLE MORE COMMERCIAL IN TOURISM ..BUT NOT QUITE LIKE KUTA'S BEACHES.

While staying in Sanur it's worthwhile making the effort to get out of bed early to catch the sunrise. They can be spectacular.
You will not be alone on the beach at this hour of the morning. Tourists and locals will be out and about. Some will just be sitting waiting for that special moment as the sun breaks the horizon, others will be out for their daily exercise.
The other bonus at that time of the day is that it is a lot cooler!! It's a good idea to go for a brisk walk along the beach front before the humidity sets in.

I am not suggesting you to eat that turtle meat, but when youre in Sanur Beach area, people will invite you to either visit the Turtle island, or eat the turtle's meat. Though those are protected animal, but eat the turtle meat is part of the local religion-culture.

If you already watch the Balinese dance performance, it is nice to see the process behind it. Especially when its dealing with kids. I really love them! Innocent, funny, naughty by nature -- sometimes.
