If you have a gut instinct don't ignore it. If you are listening to other people's fears about Bali yet they are happy to travel to London, Madrid or New York - go. It's not selfish! Pick a quieter hotel, shop in non-peak times, don't go to the busiest places at the busiest times.
It's all relative really. If we were an Iraqi family in Bagdad we'd think Bali was the furthest, safest place in the world for a holiday and wouldn't hesitate.
