I like that everything is within walking distance and I don't need transportation to get around in Kuta. It's very easy to find at afforfable prices a lot of local food and nice places to sleep, with a swimming pool, in the heart of Kuta. In a few steps I can go from my hotel to the beach and watch the sunset while enjoying a beer. As a backpacker with a small budget, Kuta is perfect for me.

You can also go to Seminyak. This upscale neighbourhood, located just north of Kuta, is known for its trendy boutiques, luxury resorts and fine dining restaurants. I can advice you go in the evening to the Double Six Beach in Seminyak. It's a nice place to grab a beer and listening to live music.
If you like shopping, Kuta also has several large shopping centres featuring a wide variety of shops, restaurants and entertainment options.
