GETTING THERE: Singapore Airlines (800-742-3333, www.singaporeair.com) flies from Los Angeles to Denpasar, via Singapore, for about $1,400 round-trip; upgrading to business class gets you flat-reclining SpaceBeds on the 18-hour first leg. April through October, the dry season, is the best time to visit. See www.balitourismauthority.net for general info. WHERE TO STAY: One-bedroom villas start at $575 per night at the Four Seasons Resort Bali at Jimbaran Bay and at Sayan (800-819-5053, www.fourseasons.com/jimbaranbay, www.fourseasons.com/sayan). Each of Jimbaran's 147 traditional villas and Sayan's 42 contemporary villas has its own plunge pool. At both resorts, garden showers and open-air living rooms merge the interiors with the outdoors. WHAT TO DO: Learn to surf, or find the best breaks, with the easygoing guides from Bali Learn to Surf (011-62-361-761869, www.balilearntosurf.com), in Kuta. A two-and-a-half-hour class costs $39. Bali Adventure Tours (011-62-361-721480, www.baliadventuretours.com) leads half-day Ayung River raft trips for $66, including lunch. Four Seasons Jimbaran Bay's cooking school offers a spice tutorial at a lively market, then teaches you to craft a convincing chicken satay ($90, including breakfast and lunch).
