Sanur's Sidewalk Makeover: What Bali Family Travelers Need to Know

If you’re planning a family trip to Bali and have your eye on Sanur for its laid-back vibes and beachfront charm, here’s a quick update you’ll want to know: Jalan Danau Tamblingan — Sanur’s main strip — is getting a sidewalk makeover.

That’s great news in the long run, but in the short term, it means that strolling this popular area comes with a few obstacles. The construction is expected to continue for the next few months, and while sections are being replaced with smooth, modern paths, other parts remain uneven, narrow, and sometimes even have gaping holes in them.

For families pushing strollers or walking with little ones, it’s especially important to stay alert. It’s easy to get distracted by the colorful cafes, artisan shops, and coconut stands — but while you look up, remember to watch your step down below.

Locals shared that the upgrades will make Sanur more walkable long-term — with better drainage, accessibility, and aesthetics — so this is a positive transformation in the works. In the meantime, you might want to plan your walks earlier in the day to avoid crowds and opt for well-lit routes in the evening.

So yes — Bali is getting a bit of a facelift, and Sanur is part of the glow-up. Just take it slow, wear sturdy footwear, and keep those curious little feet safe around construction zones. Happy travels!
