First Aid and Medical Issues
Bali is a tropical island, and its hot and humid climate is ideal for the growth of bacteria and fungi. Because of this it is wise to take extra care with cuts, food storage, and hygiene. Always make sure you keep any wounds clean and dry to help prevent infection.
To help avoid suffering any unnecessary ailments while you are in Bali, you can take a few easy preventative measures:
Whatever you may need, the staffs are available to help, and should you require a doctor do not hesitate to inform our manager, who will make appropriate arrangements for you. Medical services offered is listed in the Reference section at the end of this book.
Should you need the services of one of the clinics during your stay in Indonesia, please take note that Bali’s clinics are not set up to deal with serious medical situations, particularly head or spinal injuries. In the unfortunate event that something should occur, we recommend that you organise air evacuation to first world medical facilities, either in Singapore or Australia. This can be arranged though the BIMC medical clinic. You can call them directly or ask the staff to do this for you.
Tropical Diseases
For the most part in bali, clear of Malaria, Dengue Fever, and Japanese B Encephalitis – all mosquito borne diseases. Keep in mind, though, that Bali is still a tropical island and cases of these sicknesses can and do still occur. Generally speaking, you do not have to worry. However, if you plan to explore the Northern or Western areas of the island, please take sensible precautions to minimise the risk of insect bites. Below are a few tips we suggest you follow:
Taxi Services
Transportation by taxi to and from the resort is easy to arrange. The system for street names and numbering in Bali is inconsistent, and often time’s streets do not have names, however we have permanent and official address :
“Banjar Bunutn, Jln. Batu Kurung IV, Kedewatan, Ubud – Bali Phone : +62 361 981 799 email :info@pramanawatukurung Web : www.pramanawatukurung.com”
Should you expect Visitors or Mails, Please give this address. In Some Part of the town is almost impossible to give directions to a taxi driver. It is also very difficult to call taxis from many villas, especially if they are located in rural areas, because they are not easy to find.
Driving In Bali
The cost of a private car and chauffeur in Bali is very reasonable. If, however, you want to drive yourself, you must have an International Driving Licence or an Indonesian Driving Licence, called a ‘SIM.’ If you do not have a permit upon your arrival in Bali, it is fairly easy to obtain one.
If you choose to drive without a licence and the police stop you, you should expect to pay a small penalty. If the police do not ask for money right away, or if they tell you that you must accompany them to the police office, you should ask them if you can pay the fine right there on the spot. The standard fine is generally from Rp. 20,000 – 50,000. Payment of this fine is a preferable alternative to a trip to the local police station to process paperwork. No matter what the circumstances, be polite, be patient.
Also, please consider that driving in Bali requires a certain disregard for all forms of normal traffic rules and road etiquette. Accidents are common, and regardless of the circumstances, more often than not, if one of the parties involved is a tourist, it will be the tourist’s fault. Keep this in mind: even if the police come and say that you are not at fault for the accident, you will most likely still be required to pay for all damages.
Here are some basic guidelines to follow:
Our advice to you is to hire a car and driver, as we believe this is a much less stressful means of transportation, and by western standards, is very inexpensive.

Notes of Caution
NIGHT-TIME EXCURSIONS
Whilst Bali is generally safe to walk around even at night, we recommend that you always use your personal driver or a licensed taxi to move around after dark.
DRUGS
Please understand that the drug-related laws are very different here in Bali than elsewhere in the world. The authorities in Bali pursue drug enforcement vigorously. The penalties for possession are severe and are applied whether you are a visitor or a resident. We cannot stress enough the dangers associated with this issue, and under no circumstances should you become involved in any form of illegal drug use.
Also it is advisable to be wary at private parties where you suspect illegal drugs are being used. The police in Bali have been known to raid parties and hold all guests responsible in the event they are suspect of illegal substance abuse, so be aware of this and act responsibly. Also take note that occasionally police roadblocks are set up and when stopped, people are expected to empty their pockets.
POLICE DETENTION
Please call our resort Manager immediately if you are taken into custody by the police for any reason. These telephone numbers are listed in the telephone directory at the end of this book.
TRAVEL TIP
We strongly advise that you make photocopies of your airline tickets and your passport’s identification pages. We also urge you to make a list of all of your traveller’s checks as well as the details and emergency fax and telephone numbers of your credit cards. All of this information should be kept in a safe place separate from your wallet/purse. Having this information readily available will expedite the replacement of these items in the unfortunate event they should be lost or stolen.
At The End of Your Stay
TIPPING FOR RESORT STAFF
Our staffs work very hard to ensure that your stay is enjoyable and relaxing. The average monthly salary in Bali is low by Western standards, so tips from our guests can result in a substantial change in lifestyle for the staff, and are always greatly appreciated.
Tip amounts are left to client discretion, can be done by giving straight to the staff or Operation Head for all staff shared.
Quick Reference Section
SUPERMARKETS
Bintang, main road sanggingan ubud | 8am – 10pm
Bintang offers a wide enough range of products for most needs. Whilst the selection of imported goods and produce does not match higher end deli-markets (Dijon and Gourmet Garage), it is easily the most convenience starting point. There is a small book and magazine store (often a higher prices than you would find at home), a large refrigerated section and a home wares department.
In the front of Bintang, you will also find ATMs and cell-phone counters, where you may purchase pre-paid mobile phone cards.
