Bali
4 Night Bali Weekend Getaway
per adult
Two 4-night itineraries priced for two in rupees, with flights, visa and levy added, plus a straight answer on when five days is enough.
By Kabir Nair, Southeast Asia Specialist · · Updated

A 4-night, 5-day Bali package for a couple costs about Rs 53,000 to Rs 59,000 for the land part, as of September 2026, going by two live packages on this site that I priced on 23 September. Add return flights for two, visas and the Bali levy, and the total is about Rs 1.2 lakh to Rs 1.65 lakh, plus roughly Rs 13,500 for lunches and dinners. Five days is enough for a first look at Bali, but only once you accept that it buys three touring days, and you choose either a Kuta plus Ubud split or a Nusa Penida day as the centrepiece instead of cramming in both.
Many "from" prices for this trip length are land-only and per person, which is why they look low. Below I've put the whole bill together for two trip shapes. For anything charged in rupiah I've used 1 INR = 185.9 IDR, the Wise mid-market rate on 23 September 2026. Every price here is approximate and moves with your dates.
The two packages behind these numbers take opposite approaches. The first splits the stay: two nights in Kuta, then two in a private pool villa near Ubud, listed at Rs 53,098 for two on the August dates shown on its page. The second keeps you in one Kuta hotel for all four nights and spends a day on Nusa Penida, listed at Rs 58,640 for two for a 1 October start. Both include hotels with breakfast, private airport transfers and a car on tour days. Neither includes flights, which you book yourself. Both prices are for the dates on each listing, and the flights below are for late October and November, so treat the total as a ballpark.
| Line item, for two people | Kuta + Ubud split | Kuta base + Nusa Penida |
|---|---|---|
| Land package | Rs 53,098 | Rs 58,640 |
| Return flights (approx.) | Rs 60,000 to Rs 1,00,000 | Rs 60,000 to Rs 1,00,000 |
| Visa on arrival, 2 x IDR 500,000 | Rs 5,380 | Rs 5,380 |
| Bali levy, 2 x IDR 150,000 | Rs 1,614 | Rs 1,614 |
| Trip cost before meals | Rs 1,20,092 to Rs 1,60,092 | Rs 1,25,634 to Rs 1,65,634 |
| TCS at 2% on the package (adjusted against your tax) | Rs 1,062 | Rs 1,173 |
The flight line is the one that swings. The cheapest returns I found on Google Flights on 23 September 2026, for late October and November dates, started at Rs 29,742 per person out of Chennai (one stop, on Scoot). Bengaluru was Rs 36,673 with a stop and Rs 49,495 on IndiGo's nonstop. Delhi and Mumbai sat at about Rs 45,000 to Rs 48,500. Double the low and high ends for two and you get the range in the table. Travel in August and it climbs: typical one-week fares from Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru ran Rs 45,500 to Rs 71,000 per person that month over the past year.
The fixed costs are small, but they're almost never inside a package price. The visa on arrival is IDR 500,000 per person (about Rs 2,690) for 30 days, and the Bali levy is IDR 150,000 (about Rs 807). Keep Rs 7,000 aside for the two of you. TCS is a flat 2 percent on an overseas tour package from 1 April 2026, with no threshold. It's collected against your PAN and you claim it when you file your return, so think of it as money you'll see again, not a fee.
Food is the other line packages leave out. Breakfast is included at every hotel in both trips, and the Penida tour includes a local lunch. For the rest, Numbeo's Bali data (updated 5 September 2026) puts a cheap local meal at about IDR 50,000 per person and a three-course dinner for two at a mid-range restaurant at about IDR 528,500. Lunches at local warungs (small family eateries) and a nicer dinner on four days come to roughly Rs 13,500 for two. So the all-in figure for a couple is about Rs 1.34 lakh to Rs 1.8 lakh, before shopping and spa visits.

Four nights sounds like four days of holiday. It's closer to three. Day 1 goes to the flight, immigration and the drive to your hotel, and day 5 goes to checkout and the airport. That leaves days 2, 3 and 4 for touring, and both packages fill all three.
How much of days 1 and 5 you get back depends on your city. Bengaluru has a daily IndiGo nonstop, the fastest taking about 6 hours 50 minutes. Air India flies nonstop from Delhi on most days of the week in about 8 hours, and IndiGo has scheduled a daily Delhi nonstop from 25 October 2026, so check the day you want. Mumbai and Chennai had no nonstop on sale when I checked. Their cheapest fares are long one-stops (about 26 hours from Mumbai, 17 from Chennai), though quicker ones of 8 hours 55 minutes and 7 hours 35 minutes exist. Bali also runs 2.5 hours ahead of India, so an 8 hour flight that takes off at 10 am Indian time lands at about 8.30 pm Bali time.
If your only affordable option is a long one-stop, five days starts to feel like three, and I'd add a night before adding anything else.
This is the main choice inside a 4-night trip, and it matters more than the hotel names.
The first package, the 4 Night Bali Weekend Getaway, starts with two nights at Kuta Beach Club Hotel in a deluxe double room, then moves you to Ubud Heaven Sayan for two nights in a 125 square metre one-bedroom pool villa. Day 2 is the south: Garuda Wisnu Kencana, Tanah Barak beach and Uluwatu temple for the Kecak dance. Day 3 is the move day, and it's used well: a two-hour ATV ride for two, the Sacred Monkey Forest and the Alas Harum swing on the way to your villa. Day 4 is the long one, out east to Lempuyang, Tirta Gangga and the black sand at Keramas.
The price of splitting is time in the car. Ubud is about 38 km north of the airport, which Maya Ubud Resort puts at about an hour's drive, and traffic jams are common around Kuta, Denpasar, central Ubud and on the roads east. On departure day you're driving from Sayan to the airport, so pick an afternoon or evening flight and leave a buffer. The east Bali day is also a queue day: the package listing itself warns that the Gates of Heaven photo at Lempuyang often means 45 to 90 minutes in line.
I'd pick this one if the pool villa is part of why you're going, or if you want the rice-terrace, jungle side of Bali and not just beaches. Skip it if long car days wear you out, or if either of you has bad knees, because the listing describes a steep climb of about 1,700 steps at Lempuyang.
The second package, the 5D/4N Bali Eco Trip, keeps you at Grand Ixora Kuta Resort for all four nights, in a superior pool-view room with breakfast. Day 2 is north Bali: Ulun Danu Beratan temple on the lake, Handara Gate, the Jatiluwih rice terraces and Tanah Lot. Day 3 is Nusa Penida's west coast. Day 4 is the south: banana boat, parasailing and jet ski at Tanjung Benoa, then Garuda Wisnu Kencana and Uluwatu with the Kecak dance. The car and driver are booked for 8 to 10 hours on tour days.
You never repack, and Kuta sits right next to the airport, which helps when you only have five days. The trade-off is that every day starts and ends in Kuta, so the north Bali day is the longest drive of the trip, and you give up the villa.
This is the one I'd book for a first trip where the Kelingking cliff and some watersports are the point. It's not for couples who want quiet evenings, because Kuta is a busy, built-up beach town.
| How the three full days go | Kuta + Ubud split | Kuta base + Nusa Penida |
|---|---|---|
| Day 2 | South Bali, Uluwatu and Kecak | North Bali lake temple, rice terraces, Tanah Lot |
| Day 3 | ATV, Monkey Forest, swing, move to Ubud | Nusa Penida west coast |
| Day 4 | East Bali: Lempuyang, Tirta Gangga | Watersports, Uluwatu and Kecak |
| Hotel changes | One | None |
On a map, Nusa Penida looks like a quick hop. It isn't. The fast boat from Sanur takes 30 to 40 minutes each way, and before that you have to get from your hotel to the Sanur harbour. Once you land, the island's roads are rough and hilly away from the north coast, and the west-coast stops (Kelingking, Broken Beach, Angel Billabong and Crystal Bay) are spread out. The package lists the tour at 8 hours, including lunch and snorkelling.
Kelingking is the photo everyone wants. The path down to the beach is a steep 400 m cliffside hike that Wikivoyage recommends only for the fit, and the classic view is from the top anyway, so skipping the hike costs you little. From December to March the west monsoon can bring heavy showers (they usually start late in the afternoon and pass quickly), and a 4-night plan has no spare day to move the boat trip to.
So on a 4-night trip, Penida costs you a third of your touring time. It's worth it if those cliffs are the picture of Bali in your head. It isn't if either of you gets seasick, or if you'd rather have Ubud.
Five days is enough if it's your first Bali trip, you fly nonstop or with a short connection, and you're happy to choose between Ubud and Nusa Penida. Either package here makes that choice cleanly, and you go home having seen Uluwatu, the Kecak dance and one of the two big highlights.
I'd add nights in four cases:
If you're adding two or more nights, the 7-day plan below fits better than stretching this one.

A week that covers Ubud, Nusa Penida and Uluwatu without spending your holiday in traffic.On a short trip, flights for two often cost more than the land package itself, so your dates matter more than your hotel. Google Flights data for the past year puts the cheapest month for one-week trips at January from Delhi (typical fares Rs 23,500 to Rs 32,500 per person), February from Mumbai and Bengaluru, and March from Chennai (Rs 17,500 to Rs 36,000). August was the priciest month from Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru, and July from Chennai. Both package prices above are for specific dates, so ask for a reprice on yours before you compare quotes.
Prices here were checked on 23 September 2026. Fares and hotel rates move week to week, so reprice before you pay.
Compare Bali packagesAs of September 2026, two live 4-night itineraries list at Rs 53,098 (August dates) and Rs 58,640 (1 October start) for two, land only, with hotels, breakfast, private transfers and three tour days. Flights are not included. Add return flights for two (about Rs 60,000 to Rs 1,00,000 for October and November dates), two visas and two Bali levies, and a couple pays about Rs 1.2 lakh to Rs 1.65 lakh before lunches and dinners.
For a first trip, yes, if you fly nonstop or with a short connection. Four nights gives you three full touring days, enough for south Bali plus either Ubud or a Nusa Penida day. It isn't enough to do Ubud, Nusa Penida and beach time without rushing. Add a night if your flight is a long one-stop, if it's your honeymoon, or if you want both Ubud and Penida.
For a couple, about Rs 1.2 lakh to Rs 1.65 lakh as of September 2026, covering a 4-night land package, return flights, visas on arrival and the Bali levy. Lunches and dinners add roughly Rs 13,500 for two. Flights move the total most: the cheapest returns seen for late October and November ran from about Rs 29,700 per person from Chennai to Rs 36,700 from Bengaluru with a stop, or Rs 49,500 on the Bengaluru nonstop.
Yes, but it takes one of your three full days. The fast boat from Sanur takes 30 to 40 minutes each way, the island's roads are rough, and the west-coast tour of Kelingking, Broken Beach, Angel Billabong and Crystal Bay runs about 8 hours. On a 4-night trip I'd pair it with a single Kuta base rather than also trying to fit in Ubud.
Split if you want Ubud's rice terraces and a pool villa, and you don't mind one hotel change and longer drives. Ubud is about 38 km from the airport, roughly an hour's drive without traffic. Stay in one Kuta hotel if you'd rather do Nusa Penida and watersports, never repack, and stay close to the airport on arrival and departure days.
Usually not. The visa on arrival costs IDR 500,000 per person, about Rs 2,690, for 30 days, and you can apply online as an e-VoA with a passport valid for at least six months. The Bali levy is IDR 150,000, about Rs 807, paid on the official Love Bali site. For a couple, keep about Rs 7,000 aside for both.
Yes. From 1 April 2026, TCS on an overseas tour package is a flat 2 percent of the package amount, with no threshold. On a Rs 58,640 land package that is about Rs 1,173. It is collected against your PAN and you adjust or claim it when you file your income tax return, so it is a short-term cash outlay rather than an extra fee.
