There were some budget lodges directly at the beach, but I’m not so sure if they are still. A few months back they started to bring Caterpillars and other heavy equipment to make room for a new luxury resort at Dreamland. There were talks that everything else Warungs, Surf Shops and the Budget Lodges have to go. I wasn’t there for 3 months, so I can’t comment on the current situation.

If everything is gone but the beach is still accessible, you could well stay in Padang Padang (a bit further south on the Bali Bukit) and go back via bike or other transport. Jimbaran further North is a good option as well.

Unfortunately in Indonesia money is the only rule. Some Banjar or other local official got a new 4×4 Jeep and put his signature on the necessary documents.

So both Dreamland and the secluded Padang Bai Beach will face eventually the same fate: they will turn into private resorts beaches; as a public visitor you either must pay an entrance fee or find yourself another beach spot.

Sounds sad, but that’s the way it’s going to be.
