We have stayed in Permuteran several times, and enjoyed Taman Sari. There are three hotels close together on the beach, so that you can eat in the different reataurants. Regarding travel between locations, you would be wise to organise a driver and negotiate a price - it is quite a long trip to the North West so you will need to pay the full day rate. If you are happy with your driver it is wise to arrange for him to pick you up for your return journey. We have travelled over the mountain to the North West, and then returned by the East coast road ... you could do this with a stop over. Perhaps you could arrange this with the same driver. We usually bring our own snorkel and goggles and feel happier with them.
My husband brings his own flippers, but I usually hire these.
There are many things to see and do in and around Ubud, and you will find suggestions on this forum.
Wish you a wonderful time.
