Is Seminyak better than Kuta or Ubud?
Seminyak is more upscale and quieter than Kuta (which is younger and party-focused) and more beach-oriented than Ubud (cultural/spiritual inland). It suits travellers who want beach club sophistication, fine dining, and sunset cocktails without backpacker crowds.
