Works well for this age

Works well for this age
School age
School-age kids do best where there is pool time, a supervised activity block, and somewhere to run between meals.
Works well for this age
Tweens and teens
Older kids want a little independence, sports or water-sports, and wi-fi that actually works in the room.

Worth asking before you book
-
Kids club
Ages the kids club covers, session times, and whether it is included in the rate.
-
Family rooms and suites
Exact sleeping capacity (adults + children), bed types, and whether the room is sold out on your dates.
-
Connecting and interconnecting rooms
Whether connecting rooms are guaranteed at booking or only noted as a request.
-
Baby gear and cots
Cot availability, high-chair numbers, and any charge for extra baby gear.
-
Kitchen and laundry in-room
Whether the room has a microwave, fridge, and somewhere to wash clothes between outings.
-
Transport and access
Shuttle times, cost, and how long transfers really take with small kids in tow.
-
Kids menus and dining
Ages on the kids-eat-free policy and which restaurants on site actually run a kids menu.
-
Bath versus shower in room
Whether rooms have a bathtub or only a shower. Matters a lot when bathing babies and younger toddlers.
Kid-friendly amenities
The practical parts of the stay, grouped by how families actually use the hotel.
Play, pools and on-site fun
The parts of the property children are most likely to use day to day.
-
Six pools and kids pool
The official hotel detail highlights six serene pools, and the resort gallery specifically shows the Planet Trekkers kids pool.
-
Beachfront Jimbaran setting
The resort sits on Jimbaran Bay, which keeps the stay more resort-led and calmer than a busier southern Bali street base.
Room setup and sleep
The room shapes, sleeping setup, and in-room details that affect how easy the stay feels.
-
Resort-style family pacing
This is best used as a family resort where the property itself does a large share of the holiday, not just as a room for sleeping.
Family support and dining
Extra help beyond the room itself, including child minding, baby support, and food-related backup.
-
Planet Trekkers family programme
InterContinental positions Planet Trekkers around family services, dining, activities, and childcare support.
Area and transport
Jimbaran
A strong choice for beach sunsets, quieter resort pockets, and shorter airport transfers.
Getting around
Getting around Jimbaran
Private drivers are the simplest way to move around, but families usually have a better trip when they choose one base well instead of trying to cover the whole island.
Compare nearby areas in Bali
A quick check before you lock in this base.
Nusa Dua
Best for classic resort stays, contained grounds, and families who want an easier first Bali trip.
Sanur
Often the gentlest Bali base for younger children thanks to calm water stretches and an easy promenade.
Seminyak
Useful for larger villas and dining choice, but best when your family is comfortable with busier streets.

Worth knowing about this hotel
This is a broader luxury resort stay rather than a cheap-and-cheerful family base, so the value equation depends on how much you plan to use the grounds, pools, and on-site family services.
