in 2005. It was our first time back for 15+ years and we were taking our then 7 & 5 yr old daughters. We had already paid for it then Bali was bombed. We were due to leave 4 weeks after that and I didn't want to take the children. At the last minute we decided we would go and were happy that we had picked a hotel out of Kuta (in Tuban)because we thought we'd feel safter. Strangely enough for the whole 2 weeks we were there we DID feel safe and had a fantastic time. Got the kids to use the wipes before eating and they never got Bali belly (tho I did). We did all the things we wanted and never felt in danger. Things have changed a lot but there is more for the kids to do (Waterbom park for example), lots of shopping, day trips, etc... and we had such a great time that we are going again in October. You will be pleased you went and your kids will love it - I bet you will want to go back after this trip. Have a great time.
