In Reply to: Do you prefer Kuta or Leg or Sem and why posted by MissLJ on Tuesday, 13. October 2009 at 17:57 Bali Time:
When I go to Bali w my family we prefer Legian - quieter at night as away from the big nightlife, streets less pokey on the whole and easier to walk on (in general, some exceptions), close to both Kuta and Seminyak so best of both worlds.
With friends we stay in central Kuta so are closer to nightlife and the busy poppies 1 & 2.
In terms of eating, I find that there are loads of great restaurants in all areas but if you're in to gourmet, more expensive restaurants then a lot are in Seminyak and Ubud.
