Seminyak is great for food, shopping & lazing about on the beach (just don't go swimming as the rips are very strong). It has a much more European relaxed upmarket, yet rustic feel to it. I just came back a few days ago & stayed in Legian at the Bali Padma Hotel which I can thoroughly recommend as a great hotel when you're staying in Legian.
When you're in Seminyak go have a full body exfoliation at Bodyworks 2. What a great experience. Did it with my partner & we loved it. Also, La Lucciola is THE place to go for dinner. Amazing place & Simon the Aussie chef is lovely.
Bali Deli is a great little gourmet supermarket for all sorts of yummy things & La Zumba is excellent for coffee. Balinese coffee is great. Enjoy!
