Lovina/Amed/CandiDasa are also very quiet. I don't think the tourists are going there and staying away from Legian/Kuta etc. Sanur was deserted end of last year also.
I do think the VOA has made a big difference with people staying a shorter time and the traditonal backpacker/surfer long term stayers being forced to leave so soon as they can't afford vis runs.
If people are staying half the time Bali needs twice the visitors to be even.
