What is the pool situation in Bali?
Bali's pool problem is bifurcated. Villa properties have private pools where reservation is moot. Large Nusa Dua family resorts look like Mediterranean all-inclusives and have all the classic problems. The interesting middle ground is the boutique resort with one small pool, where adjacency and group booking for a family of four matters enormously.
Questions guests ask about Bali
When is the Bali dry season?
short answer
April to October, with July and August the busiest and driest.
Do Bali boutique resorts need a reservation system?
short answer
For pools of 20-40 loungers, yes, often more than large resorts, because a single hogged lounger is a much bigger share of inventory.
Is shade a problem at Balinese pools?
short answer
Frangipani and bougainvillea coverage helps, but midday sun is direct and hot. Shade forecasting is well-received by long-stay guests.
