Just south of Kuta lies another
small fishing village community, Tuban Situated between Kuta
and the Ngurah Rai International Airport.
Largely overshadowed by its more famous neighbor (Kuta)
Tuban has recently emerged as a tourist area
in its own right and is now home
to well several known international chain hotels - among
them Ramada and Holiday Inn and several family oriented
amusement parks.
Tuban has a very good mix of hotel accommodations starting
from losmen through 5 Star properties and, being more
relaxed and a bit quieter, has earned a reputation as
a family oriented, value for money destination.
A little less frantic than Kuta, it's a good place to
grab a deck chair and a good book. Swimming here is safe,
as the hotel lifeguards will put up flags if there are
any rips, but mostly it is pretty well protected.
