Everyone Says Bali Is Too Expensive Now. We Tested It! 🇮🇩

Everyone says Bali got too expensive, so we tested it — one full day in Canggu, just the two of us, and exactly $100 to see how far it really stretches in 2026. We ate big at a local warung, got pampered, drank ice-cold beer with our feet in the sand, and tracked every single rupiah from lunch to dinner. Bali's changed — the prices, the crowds, the scene. So we counted what we actually spent. Did we stay under? The number at the end tells the whole story.
