10 Days in Bali with Kids: The Ultimate Family Itinerary from The Bali Manor Collection

Welcome to a family holiday that lingers in the heart — a journey through Bali rich in nature, culture, and shared adventure, all from the calm and luxurious base of The Bali Manor Collection in tranquil Cemagi.

This 10-day guide offers a kid-friendly outing for each day, carefully curated across the island. We’ll show you that Bali is not just a haven for wellness seekers — it’s a wonderland for curious, playful children. Don’t expect kids’ clubs or loud entertainment. Instead, expect real moments — immersive experiences that bond the family in wonder and delight.

Day 1 – Arrival & Unwinding in Cemagi

After landing at Ngurah Rai International Airport, it’s less than an hour’s drive to The Bali Manor Collection. Let the children dive straight into the infinity pool while parents exhale and settle in. You can request pre-arrival grocery shopping so your villa is already stocked with fresh breakfast staples and snacks — allowing for a gentle start to your tropical days.

Day 2 – Beach Bliss & Horseback Riding in Pererenan

A short drive away lies Pererenan Beach — serene, spacious, and ideal for little feet. Combine this with a visit to Bali Equestrian Centre, where young children can safely meet and ride gentle horses in a secure, family-friendly environment.

Day 3 – Monkeys & Market Magic in Ubud

A walk through Ubud’s Sacred Monkey Forest is just the right mix of thrilling and safe. Afterward, explore the vibrant Ubud Market — perfect for picking up handwoven trinkets and enjoying a fresh coconut or creamy coconut ice cream.

Day 4 – Water Fun in Canggu

Canggu’s Splash Water Park is a hit with families — think slides, shallow pools, and shaded lounging spots for parents. End the day at one of Bali’s beloved family cafés, like Milk & Madu or enjoy a beachside meal at The Lawn, complete with a sunset view.

Day 5 – Dolphin Watching in Lovina

An early start, but an unforgettable memory — head north to Lovina, where at sunrise you’ll set sail to spot wild dolphins dancing through the waves. Pair this with a visit to Banjar’s hot springs, perfect for a warm soak surrounded by tropical greenery.

Day 6 – Creative Crafts in Ubud: Batik & Woodcarving

Join a family-friendly batik workshop or learn the basics of traditional woodcarving from a local artisan. It’s hands-on, meaningful, and your children will bring home more than souvenirs — they’ll carry stories of creation and culture.

Day 7 – Sea Turtles & Surf Lessons

Visit a turtle conservation center where kids can help release baby turtles into the sea — a moving, purposeful experience. Afterwards, enjoy a playful surf lesson on Seminyak Beach with patient, kid-savvy instructors.

Day 8 – Temples & Coffee in Munduk

Journey into Bali’s cooler highlands. Explore waterfalls, stroll through coffee and cacao plantations, and visit serene hilltop temples. A gentle jungle walk, followed by a cup of rich local hot chocolate or spiced coffee, rounds out the day.

Day 9 – Free Day at the Villa

A day to simply be. Swim, nap, stream a movie on Netflix, or take a walk through Cemagi’s rice fields. The concierge can arrange a taxi for an impromptu family lunch in Canggu — or you can linger poolside with fresh fruit and books.

Day 10 – Sunset & Farewell by the Sea

Close your journey with a seaside picnic or beachfront dinner at Seseh Beach, just minutes away. Capture the magic with a short photo session by a local photographer — a lasting memento of your Bali family escape.
