Tips for Booking & Planning
Book early — festive seats especially at resorts tend to fill up fast.
Check what’s included — dinner buffet vs à-la-carte, children discounts, drinks, show or live-music, kids-club / kids-activity (for family-friendly venues).
Plan your stay + transport accordingly — some resorts are remote (e.g. Ubud), so factor in travel time if you stay elsewhere.
Dress code & atmosphere — some dinners are casual (buffet, resort-style), while others are more formal or romantic (fine dining, degustation), so you might want to check in advance.
