The most underrated part of Bali has to be Candi Dasa. It is a peaceful enclave that once was a tourist stronghold, but, slipped as a major tourist destination on the island for a while. Thankfully this beautiful place is having a resurge in popularity. Candi Dasa has so much to offer the traveller. Besides the beautiful beaches, markets and arty shops, Candi Dasa has some stunning sunsets.

Candi Dasa has excellent accommodation in all the price ranges, some of the best restaurants on the island, and it is ideally located for visiting some of the greatest attractions Bali has to offer. It’s only a short ride to places like the Bali Aga village of Tenganan, the scenic beauty of Gunung Agung, the Tirtagangga Water Palace at Amlapura, and many more.

Here are just a few places that will make your stay in Candi Dasa a pleasant one:

Alila Manggis
Candi Beach Cottages
The Watergarden
Rama Candi Dasa
Puri Bagus
Kubu Bali
Ashyana Candi Dasa
Alam Asmara Dive Resort
The Nirwana Resort & Spa
Villa Sasoon

I absolutely adore Candi Dasa. It is a peaceful enclave that once was a tourist stronghold and is without a doubt the most underrated part of Bali. It slipped as a tourist destination after the terrorist bombings and unfortunately never really recovered. It’s a shame because Candi Dasa has so much to offer the traveller.
Candi Dasa has some excellent accommodation in all the price ranges and some of the best restaurants on the island, and it is ideally located for visiting some of the greatest attractions Bali has to offer. The great thing now of course is that the area is gradually recovering and no doubt, in the future, great deals will be available at al the hotels in the area. For an alternative to the tourist hype of Kuta escape to the peace of Candi Dasa.
