from a quick 6 day stay. I hav only previously been in May and I did notice that it was quieter than previous visits. I flew Garuda from Melbourne and the plane would have been lucky to be 1/3 full. Friends also commented on there half empty Garuda plane which they flew 2 days later.
I stayed at The Melasti Beach Bungalows in Kuta and did notice that they were taking alot of walk -up bookings, but then again this is a crap hotel in my opinion and doesn't surprise me that they are not full. Bali Garden Hotel on the hand was at capacity...
I was a bit worried about going in Feb because of the weather, however apart from a shower for an hour on one day the weather was gorgeous, although more humid than in May.
Have a great time
