Bali isn’t just for honeymooners and surf seekers. It’s one of Southeast Asia’s most family-friendly destinations, if you know where to go and how to plan it. Think rice fields over theme parks, slow travel over tight itineraries, and smoothie bowls that both toddlers and teens will fight over.
In 2025, with new family resorts, upgraded airports, and kid-friendly cafes popping up across Ubud, Canggu, and Sanur, Bali’s more prepared than ever for your crew.
Whether it’s your first family trip or your fifth, these tips will help you avoid meltdowns and maximise your memories.
1. Pick the Right Region for Your Family Vibe

Nasi Goreng (fried rice), every kid’s entry point
