Nightlife & Dining Out
Nearly every hotel in Nusa Dua has its own bars and generally a nightclub. How full and how much fun they are depends on the current guests, but if you're staying there it's worth a look, it may save you a cab fare.

The restoration of the hotel saw the addition of the Club Tabuh which features ladies nights, fashion parades, regular guest bands and theme nights, Phone the hotel on 771 210 to find out what's on tonight.

Hemmingway's
A very sophisticated atmosphere with a piano and singer every night, the air conditioned venue is a little out of the way down near Grand Mirage Hotel but is a very comfortable spot to stop for one of their fantastic cocktails and a good range of top shelf liquor.

Poco Loco Nusa Dua

Attractions & Activities
Bali Golf & Country Club, voted "One of Asia's 5 Best Golf Courses", is located in the deluxe resort environment of Nusa Dua and provides golfing enthusiasts with a superb world class championship 18-hole golf course in a spectacular seaside setting.

Three distinct areas combine with the best environment for golf into one course. Exciting sand dune holes along side some of the world's most beautiful beaches; lush setting of lakes and multi-coloured flora amidst massive coconut trees; and a hillside of terrain affording spectacular views of the ocean and the Nusa Dua area while playing through Balinese rice terraces and coral rock outcrops. The Indian Ocean creates a spectacular backdrop to the course with the majestic slopes of the revered Gungung Agung Volcano in the distance.

Uluwatu Temple. Reputedly built by the arcitect-priest Mpu Kuturan around the 11th Century as one of the six major Sad Kahyangan territorial temples of the island. The temple's structure follows the tripartite pattern of godly, human and demonic courtyards. The temple underwent renovations in the late 19th century, in 1949 and more recently in the 1980s and some parts are actually as they look. Despite the temple's mixture of old and new it is a breathtakingly beautiful spot, especially when the sun begin to set.
