In Reply to: where is Tabanan/ Umalas/ posted by halbs on Tuesday, 6. September 2005 at 18:42 Bali Time:
Just had a look on my trusty Bali map.
Umalas is about 7 kms north of Kuta, while Tabanan is more like 20 kms North West of Kuta. It depends how close you would like to be to the action. I like Seminyak myself because it is close enough to everything but not right in the heart of it (around 4kms from Kuta). Bear in mind, you will be able to get around very cheaply by Bluebird Taxi wherever yo u choose to stay.
cheers
