I was in Uluwatu at EO July. Klapa resort wasn't crowded at all.

Amed is the diving spot

allgo 1mo

Probably any place lol

anomad 1mo

yeah but like some direct suggestion so that i don't have to go first with airbnb

anomad 1mo

maybe with a whatsapp number

anomad 1mo

or just even the name of a place

allgo 1mo

My "this" got autocorrected to "your". Onwardtickets is a scam because you can buy an onward ticket from any US OTA, show it to immigration/wherever, and the OTA is obligated by federal law to offer a full refund if you cancel the flight within 24 hours of purchase

allgo 1mo

I stayed at Outsite, met a bunch of cool people, and looked around for villas

chrisnatterer 1mo

I guess the benefit with onwardticket is, you don't have to do anything afterwards yourself. You can't forget to cancel, and you don't have to rely on federal law.

allgo 1mo

LOL "rely on federal law". That law means you cancel with a couple clicks. And all along, you have a REAL ticket.

I don't know how OnwardTicket sites implement their service, but they might just print a bogus booking confirmation, so if an immigration official bothered to check the pax manifest, you wouldn't be on it. (I doubt they check though).

But yes, if remembering to cancel costs you more than $10, then Onward Tickets is a useful service

anomad 1mo

things like onward tickets are illegal , the immigrations officers know more and more about these things, they can reject you or they can ask you to pay money (basically a bribe)

anomad 1mo

i reserached this few months ago to check if i should use it

anomad 1mo

my result was: no

anomad 1mo

maybe it can go good most of the time, like you can steal in a store and don't get caught most of the time, lol

anomad 1mo

idk what you were talking about but i'm talking about when someone enter in a foreign country when they need to have the exit ticket ready

anomad 1mo

idk what's onward ticket but if it's something like they make you have the exit ticket without having the exit ticket, yeah, i wouldn't advise it

sulliwayne 1mo

heya, I booked for 2 months in Bali, but where should I go after that ? any recommandations ?

allgo 1mo

Correct, it's not a real plane flight ticket

somavakien 1mo

Not true. Its a real flight you are booking. But after 48 hours they cancel the ticket

somavakien 1mo

But i just bought a return ticket

somavakien 1mo

But nobody checked me

elpol 1mo

It’s high season

somavakien 1mo

hello can anybody tell me which website i should use to extend my visa on arrival for another 30 days? Which is the official website ?

somavakien 1mo

is this ok? https://balivisasagency.com/service/visa-extension/

somavakien 1mo

depends what you like and whats your lifestyle is

oskars 1mo

https://evisa.imigrasi.go.id/web/find-batch

somavakien 1mo

thanks

allgo 1mo

This took so long (3 weeks) that my visa expired in the meantime. Note that you can only apply for extension 15 or fewer days before expiration

allgo 1mo

Does that look official to you?

somavakien 1mo

Yeah i know thats Why I ask if the other side is OK cause I wanna be sure I get my extend

reffan 1mo

Was about to do the same thing but worried it won't extend in time. What a system ey.

somavakien 1mo

Well I keep reading, if you do it with agency you get it faster and in.the same time beware of scams.

somavakien 1mo

Anybody got a contact number for an visa agent?

sizzle 1mo

Yes legit

sizzle 1mo

Got mine super fast

somavakien 1mo

Thanks a lot

allgo 1mo

Yes, I used BaliVisas .com and they extended it in 2 business days

reffan 1mo

Could you do it online or did you have to go in person?

somavakien 30d

Looks like both when you have evisa

reffan 30d

Perfect, I'll try that then 👍

Still strange to me that it is faster by agency than doing it yourself online 🤷

brendanb 30d

Anyone stayed in Pererenan lately? I haven’t been to Bali for a few years so not sure how crowded it’s getting there. Or does anyone know a new spot that’s like Pererenan was a few years back?

martimart 27d

Hey anybody in Ubud that wants to meet up? Or can recommend good cafés to work from? Im staying here till mid april

elpol 27d

Seseh. But Pererenan is still nice IMO.

elpol 27d

It’s not Batu Bolong (yet)

elpol 27d

To extend a normal tourist visa? You definitely don’t need an agent. Just go to the website and pay, as long as you have the payment receipt you’ll be ok. It’s Indonesia, not Australia 😂

somavakien 27d

I wanna extend visa on arrival

allgo 27d

All online

erickgarcia2634 24d

Any gym recommendations in Canggu?

yonggg 24d

- Nirvana Strength
- Alpha
- Obsidian
- DeGym

hunterfogarty 24d

I'm arriving there in April. While the topic of Gyms is being touched on, which is the least crowded in your experience? I want to avoid the super crowded influencer gyms. I don't need crazy equipment, just basic shit for a PPL split.

oskars 24d

Guyzz I'm in Bali for the first time and I spend days surfing. Consider it if you need sports!

danielwiwiwi 23d

Hey! Anyone in Uluwatu next 2 weeks? : )

helloviv 22d

I’m in Uluwatu now, would love to meet up with anyone else who’s around! :)

reffan 21d

General update on the eVOA extension. It took 5 days but I got mine extended. Did it myself through the same web portal where you apply for the eVOA.

Seems easy enough 🤷 (even though the site, payment portal and email you receive has a lot of bugs 😅)

elpol 21d

Yeah same. Zero need for an agent. It’s so easy nowadays.

elpol 21d

Hahaha yeah it’s buggy AF, it has so many vulnerabilities. At some stage I could see other peoples documents 😂😂😂

elpol 21d

The local ones… which area exactly?

elpol 21d

Victory in Pererenan used to be awesome, I remember paying 15000 idr for one session 😂

allgo 20d

How would one get into the pool parties community?

allgo 20d

My extension took longer than 2 weeks backm in October

somavakien 20d

I took an Agent for my Visa Extention now cause the earlierest i can apply would be the 24th and indonesia holiday starts from 29-7 april. So i only would have 5 days to get my visa. With the agent i have somebody who takes care that i can stay even i get my extention after 7 th April.

somavakien 20d

I think an Island in Thailand

elpol 20d

It does not matter. As soon as you apply to extend and you have the payment receipt, you are good to go

elpol 20d

Again, it’s Indonesia 😂

digitalmatthew 20d

Own a pool

mauriceh 19d

Hey guys, I will stay in Bali for 4months and would like to stay in Uluwatu. I would be happy if someone can recommend a calm area there?☀️

nikzechner 19d

Are there any co-living villas in Canggu specifically for entrepreneurs?

Any experiences with that?

kobrianos 19d

Hey guys, im in bali for ten days stating Thursday. If anyone is up for meeting up/ any meet ups let me know. Would be great connecting.

kobrianos 19d

Hey Guys, I am in Bali starting next week if anyone up to connect or any meet ups.

allgo 17d

Go to Black Sands Brewery

allgo 17d

Klapa Resort. Includes breakfast & dinner

allgo 17d

B-Work people would know

nikzechner 17d

B-Work?

somavakien 16d

Hello is there somebody in Bali and coming to lembongan? We need diapers and can not get Them here😂

suuuupaman 16d

Gojek?!

suuuupaman 16d

We need drone delivery

somavakien 16d

Gojek?

allgo 16d

https://bwork.id, and I remember there was another co-working space like that with rooms available too

allgo 16d

Or Grab Mart

nikzechner 16d

Thanks for sharing, looks promising!

somavakien 15d

So.i got my visa extention with agent in 3 days

hunterfogarty 13d

Quick question: Seems like most countries technically want proof of onward travel. And so far I've never had it nor been asked to provide it (Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia). I'm assuming the same is probably the case here? Or has anyone noticed them being strict about this at the airport?

shashank 10d

Any recommendations on places to stay in Canggu? Should I go for guesthouses or apartments?

reffan 10d

When applying for an eVOA it asks you to upload the onward ticket. Not sure if it actually gets checked tho.

hunterfogarty 10d

Opted to take care of the VOA when I land.

hunterfogarty 10d

Will update on my experience. On the plane now flying in.

milesjokic 9d

Had some bad luck with co-living places. Can anyone recommended a co-living place in Canggu that is:
1. Clean and quite at this moment (no construction work at 5am)
2. Table and chair with fast internet in the bedroom
3. Reasonably priced, social vibe welcome

hunterfogarty 9d

Update: Onward travel was not an issue at all.

Bonus tip for anyone new... That first desk you see when you land is just for paying for the VOA if you didn't pay already online. If you already paid online keep going down to the machine where you put your passport in. And then extra bonus tip is to read the signs properly... That next line you get in requires a new QR code for the items you're bringing into the country...

I didn't read the sign and had to do that line twice 🙃

shashank 7d

Anyone have a co-working space recommendation in canggu?

sossho 7d

(asking for fzpzllsdkmfryizvqrey /> Hey guys, I need some urgent advice 'cause I have the flight but still miss the accomodation! 🙌

I'm looking for the best spot in Canggu for a 25-year-old couple 👫—somewhere similar to Kata Beach in Phuket. It should be close to a nice beach but also offer some nightlife options, so that when we are not working we can go to the beach in the morning/afternoon and/or go out in the evening.

For example in kata beach there is the patong/karon/kata area to go around. Any suggestions? Are there areas with both (beach and fun/life/activities)? We are gonna stay there 2 or 3 months so we can also change area during the stay.

Thanks!

anomad 6d

Hey , any suggestions? Is seminyak good?

anomad 6d

.

brendanb 6d

Outpost was quite good, they used to have good event managers. Tropical looks really cool but it’s on the shortcut so it’s annoying to get to. There’s also one in Pererenan with a pool that I liked. Not much of a community but very good vibes

brendanb 6d

Best was dojo 😭😭😭😭

elpol 5d

100%

elpol 5d

And Hubud

ferrrroc 5d

How about BWork ? Ive been there for a few months and I really like it

ferrrroc 5d

Yeah for sure, I would go either close to Caravan in an area of Canggu called Berawa (nice beach and close to finns, morabito, vault, seminyak). Thats where I personally stay now at 1 min from the beach and I really like it

Or next to La Brisa but youll be further away from seminyak so location wise i think berawa is the most strategic

shashank 4d

Thanks for the tips, checking out tribal in pererenan today, pretty good vibe, will check out the others later this week.

brendanb 4d

Can you check if they run events there these days? I'm coming to bali next month and prob staying in pererenan so it would be good to find a nice and social coworking

shashank 3d

I don't think they run events, good vibes though, people seemed social but also respectful if you were trying to work
