- Bali airport traffic, and when to stay near itStay near the airport if you fly early, fly out in the late afternoon from Seminyak or Canggu, or cannot afford to miss the flight. Guides put the drive from Kuta at 10 to 15 minutes, Seminyak at 20 to 40 and Canggu at 35 to 50, and these can roughly double between about 4pm and 7:30pm. The closest hotels are in Tuban: Novotel is nearest the terminals, with Hilton Garden Inn and HARRIS Tuban a short drive away.Read →
