The going rate is, I think, Rp200K - Rp250K for a half day (4 hours) & Rp400K - Rp 500K for a full day (8 hours) depending on where you want to go. (Many drivers rent the car & have to pay for petrol - often they end up with only a few dollars from a day trip - so if you are happy with your driver do give a tip).
Drivers will find you - they are everywhere. Your villas will have a driver but probably expensive. Should be lots hanging around Dreamland.
Otherwise, I'd search the archives here &/or post separately specifically asking for a good driver in that area. You want a SAFE driver with good English who doesn't chatter constantly yet is happy to answer questions, knowledgeably. Also one who won't take you to expensive shops where he gets a commission.
