Bali, the Island of the Gods, is on the bucket list of every world traveler. Bali is a province of steep mountains, rice terraces, and stunning beaches. This tropical paradise is known for enchanting scenery and unmatched cultural experiences. The Balinese practice a lifestyle that is tied to a mix of traditions of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Malay ancestor cults. In Bali, a day on the beach is best-enjoyed diving among live coral reefs such as Tulamben Coral Garden. Coral reefs are abundant here as Bali is part of the Coral Triangle. Further inland, adventurers can go trekking in the rainforests and climbing active volcanoes. For a unique vacation, you should embrace agritourism in Bali and choose to stay on a working farm instead of a beachside hotel. For great options, read on for the best farm stays in Bali, Indonesia.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 13, 2024.
