Bali - where to stay

Hi all,
we would like to go to Bali for a week. We have 2 girls of 8 and 5 y old. We don't want to go to Kuta. We really would like to explore some of the island. And relax in a hotel/villa.
Do you know nice and affordable places to stay?
We would prefer not to go to a huge resort with kids club etc. Just a nice place where we can enjoy the surroundings. Kids are adamant about a pool...
Where do we really need to go? What do we really need to see?
Thanks
Lot

booking.com
agoda.com
asiarooms.com

MANY cost effective options with recent honest reviews.
Ubud area for me any of the www.komaneka.com properties
within your budget constraints Monkey Forest would be my favorite. Sanur great vibe for beach.

Happy Hunting!

I would suggest you to go to Waterbom Park, near Kuta. This would be a perfect place for you as you said your children love water parks and pools. Another thing that I can suggest is to stay in Komaneka, Ubud hotel.

The newest Komineka just outside Ubud, opened about 15 months ago is very nice and for what you get I think it is well worth the price. The one on Monket Forest has too many steps though it is very nice and is a few dollars less.
