The three of us behind Bali Approved

Hi, we are the team behind baliapproved.id.

We moved to Bali 66 days ago. As we started exploring, we found so many interesting places that we wanted a way to remember them, document them, and appreciate each experience for what it was. Bali Approved is our record of the places we've actually visited and our honest experience of them. Hopefully, it becomes something useful for us to look back on in the future, and perhaps useful for you too.

    CHAGEE Discovery Mall

    A nice little getaway for tea lovers who want something other than coffee; with the smell of roasted tea, a comfortable spot to recharge, and Kuta sunset waiting just outside the door.

    Seniman Coffee Renon

    What we really liked about Seniman Coffee is how everything feels like art; the chairs, mugs, ceiling, even the bathroom entrance. It feels thoughtful without trying too hard, which makes the place memorable.
