lets start to save money for you.
shop at dianna's for t-shirts etc if she hasn't got it she will get it she is across road from Bali green next door to hotel to the right. she has fixed prices if you ask, tell her Greg & Cheryl sent you(no commision to me)DVD's email Helgi but you can get cheaper but he will give you a DVD player at the rate of 1 night for a week that the Dynasty will Charge you and he comes to the hotel. Waterbom just up the road, buy a ticket from the hotel the only time i will say this it is cheaper than anyone else i have found.
eating well within a short walk you have a few good places we keep going back to C-Line south towards airport way near bintang, good for breakie , lunch and dinner average price per plate about 30,000rph's lemon chicken is real good. Daddy's straiaght across road not bad for breakie, good thai next door. take a walk along beach towards airport around 5 if you can get away from happy hour in the pool bar and go to pantai on the beach JL Wana Sengara but walk and then cab home about $2 you will keep going there seafood, indo pizza etc what can i say.Half the price of jimba bay
Hotel breakie is real good also if you don't have it included get the buy 7 get 10 or 12 free also kids eat free under12 so you save there.
fill up and then no lunch or just a small snack. When are you going?? we are there in April. you will find your feet quickly staying in Tuban, with kids Dynasty is our choice and will keep going back there as we do at a glance plan for $100 per day and you will be good but also have an extra couple in reserve. be sure to have dinner at Gracies the steak is a must and check out the irish band, all are freinds of ours, one our son LOL., Money charger next to laundry near super market. If i think about more i will post,but buy beer and softies from supermarket and empty fridge save heaps doing it that way ,just leave stuff on top. also tip room cleaner about $5 or $10 first day and you will be looked after if you need late clean ,more tea/coffee etc. as for babysitters hit the girls up in kids club than going to recp. to do it, again save about 50% on fees
Also let the kids get the froggie in garden!!
You will enjoy i hope don't be worried about money as in the end you look at you bill and you would have spent about 14 million awayway >)$2000 /5 =420 each not bad for 10 days in paradise.
