Sanur Beach lies on the eastern part of Denpasar, 25 minutes drive from the airport. Some recommended Bali hotels nestle along the sunny beach of Sanur. Restaurants, shopping malls and craft shops are just outside of the hotel.

Sanur beach has long been a popular recreation site for people from Denpasar. The palm-lined beach curves from the Bali Beach Hotel toward the south, facing the Indian Ocean towards the east. Sanur offers many good hotels, restaurants, shops and other tourist facilities. It is only a short distance from Denpasar. Public transportation to and from the city are easily available until well into the night. Offshore reefs protect the beach against the waves to make it popular for wind surfing, boating and other water sports.
