Tri Hita Karana- life in Bali and Balinese culture in general can be summed up in these three words. Roughly translated, this means a close spiritual connection between man, god and nature. Bali is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. The little island has been awarded the best island by the International Travel Magazine.
Inspite of rapid globalization, Balinese culture still retains some of its pristine originality that cannot be comprehended by spending just a week there by way of vacation. One has to spend some considerable amount of time to soak up the Balinese civilization and its many nuances. And the best way to do that is to rent a cottage or a villa depending on your budget in the beautiful Balinese countryside. It is typical for travellers to check in to five star hotels when on trips to tropical countries. The stay is comfortable enough but it shows you only one side of a country. To experience the exquisite beauty of Bali, and to enjoy personalized comfort, why don’t you put up in a villa? It is cheaper, offers you more privacy, more space and more comfort. You can never really think of ‘relaxing’ and letting you hair down at a five star hotel.
But at a private villa, you can quite literally, let your hair down and put your leg up in quiet enjoyment of your own privacy! And its not just a villa that you can rent. You can choose from cottages, bungalows and even apartments that come on rent. You can even choose from your favourite spot whether you want to stay close to the shopping destinations, or the beach. And if you are wondering how do you get from one place to the other, just rent out a car!
There are many rental agencies that rent out cars for business trip as well as holiday stays. These rentals include pick up and drop from the airport to your place of stay and vice versa. The rate is quoted in Indonesian Rupiah (IDR), US Dollars (USD), or European Currency (EUR). Depending on your budget and your need, you will be given a choice of vehicles from mini jeeps, family vans, mini buses to luxury sedans. The car rental rates would obviously be directly related to the condition of the vehicle and the year of manufacture. The best thing is that, if you want to enjoy your own privacy, you can rent a car for self- drive too. Self driving prices in Bali would include the car insurance amount, 21% tax and service charge charged by the Government plus unlimited mileage.
To make a booking, you don’t need to make any advance payments. What’s more, you can book a car for yourself sitting in the luxury of your villa over the Internet by just filling out a request form. The help desk of the rental company will contact you. So you see, experiencing Bali has got so easier with the rental system. So now, you can enjoy Bali, relaxed and stress free. Then what are you waiting for, get those tickets and fly to the country where existence means a harmony between man, the environment and god!
