AYANA Ocean Adventure

Dive into Ocean Adventure, AYANA's ocean-themed kids club located beside the main AYANA pool. It's a favorite for families who want the best of both worlds: a cool, A/C indoor space plus outdoor splash time—while parents stay close at the ocean view AYANA main pool right next door for a true resort-day rhythm.

Kids can join for free-play (no reservation required) or sign up for scheduled activities (reservation required). Some scheduled activities may be paid—check the day's lineup in the AYANA App.

Zones + age guidelines

  • Cerulean (ages 4–7): A/C indoor play with colorful wall puzzles, a climbing cove, an air slide, and a spacious ball pit. Note: Age limit is generally 7, but the team may be flexible for families with mixed ages.
  • Sandscape (up to age 10): creative play zone with a mini sand pit, slide, interactive tables, and rotating arts & crafts. Expect fun add-ons like painting, crafting, and Balinese culture moments. There's also a mini LEGO table and kitchen set for imaginative play.
  • Coralight (ages 5+): outdoor splash zone with two children's pools and two gentle waterslides.

Why families love it

Pros

  • Next to AYANA's main pool with gorgeous ocean views. Kids play steps away while parents settle in poolside—one of the easiest "everyone's happy" setups on the resort.
  • Close to Rock Bar. It's perfectly placed for late-afternoon plans: kids can squeeze in playtime while you prep for sunset.
  • Complimentary for in-house guests. Ideal for spontaneous drop-ins between swims, snacks, and nap breaks.
  • Indoor + outdoor variety. A/C play zones for cooling off, plus the Coralight splash area when they're ready to get wet.

Things to plan for

  • Scheduled activities can fill quickly in high season.
  • Outdoor areas can feel busiest at peak hours.

Planning details: reservations, peak times, and supervision

  • Hours: 09:00–18:00 (closed for cleaning 12:00–13:00).
  • Reservations: Free-play — no reservation required. Scheduled activities — reservation required (and may be paid; check the app).
  • Peak hours: 10:00–12:00 and 15:00–18:00. Evenings are especially popular when parents head toward sunset plans.
  • Staffing & safety: for safety, the team works with a maximum of 7 kids per attendant.
  • Important supervision note (Coralight splash zone): Coralight is not a drop-off area. A parent or your booked nanny/babysitter should supervise children in the splash zone.

Guidepost Bali Camp

Guidepost Bali Camp is an English, Montessori-inspired program for children ages 3–6, led by trained Montessori teachers. It blends free exploration with gentle structure—and uses the resort itself as a learning space. Think: nature walks, culture, and hands-on discovery that still feels like vacation.

Children explore inspiring AYANA spaces including SAKA Museum, AYANA Farm, and Tevana Garden.

Two camp formats run throughout the year: Bali Adventure Camp and Holiday Camps (Winter/Summer). Holiday camps require a weekly commitment, with rotating weekly themes. Summer Camp runs from July to August and Winter Camp runs from mid to late December. At other times, Bali Adventure Camp is available Tuesday to Friday as a 1, 2, or 4 day camp. Price starts from IDR 1,950,000++.

Tip: Reserve early for peak periods like July–August and mid-to-late December.

Green Camp AYANA

Green Camp AYANA is a screen-free, hands-on nature camp for kids ages 7–12, hosted at the Tree House in Tevana Garden. Designed with Green Camp Bali's purpose-driven spirit, it's equal parts outdoor adventure and confidence-building—kids learn by doing, not by sitting still.

English fluency isn't required here. Because activities are practical, visual, and movement-based, children with limited English can join in easily, follow along through demonstration, and connect through play. Price starts from IDR 1,680,000++.

Conclusion

The best part? You don't have to pick just one. Many families combine the complimentary kids clubs with a camp day (or two) and nanny support for evenings—so kids get variety and parents get real downtime.

Think of it as a playful rotation: splash time, jungle energy, nature immersion, then an easy family dinner where everyone has new stories.

Booking + timing tips

Free-play is designed to be easy, but scheduled activities—and peak-season camps—reward early planning.

  • Ocean Adventure peak: 10:00–12:00, 15:00–18:00 (evenings busiest).
  • RIMBA peak: 09:30–12:00; avoid outdoor play 11:00–14:00 if heat-sensitive.
  • High season: reserve scheduled activities early in the AYANA App; camps can fill quickly.
  • Pack smart: swimsuits for splash zones; closed-toe shoes, hats, and mosquito repellent for camp days.

At AYANA Bali, kids can splash, climb, build, and discover—while parents enjoy the rare luxury of true downtime. Choose your childcare rhythm, then plan the fun around it. Your family holiday can feel both playful and polished, from breakfast to sunset.

FAQ

Are AYANA Ocean Adventure and RIMBA Jungle Adventure complimentary?
Yes. Both kids clubs are complimentary for in-house guests at AYANA Bali, with no reservation required for free-play sessions. Scheduled activities, which rotate daily and may include arts and crafts or cultural experiences, may carry an additional fee. Check the AYANA App on the day of your visit for the full activity lineup, pricing, and availability — especially during peak season (July-August and December) when popular sessions fill quickly.
Do I need a reservation for kids club free-play?
No reservation is needed for free-play at either Ocean Adventure or RIMBA Jungle Adventure — families can drop in anytime during operating hours (09:00-18:00). However, if you want your child to join a scheduled activity, reservation is required and should be made through the AYANA App. During high season, we recommend reserving activity spots the evening before, as popular sessions (especially crafts and cooking) tend to fill by mid-morning.
What are the age guidelines for AYANA Ocean Adventure zones?
AYANA Ocean Adventure has three zones, each designed for different ages: Cerulean (ages 4-7) is an indoor, air-conditioned play area with climbing, ball pit, and air slide; Sandscape (up to age 10) offers creative play with sand, arts and crafts, and LEGO tables; AYANA Ocean Adventure - Coralight (ages 5+) is an outdoor splash zone with two children's pools and two gentle water slides. Children under 4 require a parent or babysitter. Coralight requires parent or nanny supervision at all times.
What are the age guidelines for RIMBA Jungle Adventure zones?
RIMBA Jungle Adventure (1,600 sqm) has indoor and outdoor zones. The indoor area is open to all ages, though children under 4 must be accompanied by a parent or babysitter. The outdoor adventure area — including the flying fox (zipline), rope climbing, and air slide — is suitable for ages 7-15 with a maximum weight of 60 KG per KB. Children under 7 need adult supervision in the outdoor area. Socks are required for indoor play; proper closed-toe shoes are required for outdoor activities.
What are the operating hours for the kids clubs?
Both AYANA Ocean Adventure and RIMBA Jungle Adventure operate daily from 09:00 to 18:00 for in-house guests. Peak hours at Ocean Adventure are 10:00-12:00 and 15:00-18:00 (evenings are especially busy when parents head to Rock Bar or sunset plans). At RIMBA, peak hours are 09:30-12:00. For the most comfortable experience, aim for early morning (09:00-10:00) or early afternoon (13:00-15:00) visits. Hours may shift slightly during holidays — confirm via the AYANA App or concierge.
Can my child eat lunch at the kids club?
Yes. Lunch can be ordered at both AYANA Ocean Adventure and RIMBA Jungle Adventure. At Ocean Adventure, children can order from a dedicated children's menu, and parents can also order food and drinks through the AYANA App while relaxing at the nearby main pool. At RIMBA Jungle Adventure, similar meal options are available. If your child has dietary restrictions or allergies, inform the team when ordering — they can accommodate most common requirements with advance notice.
Which options are true drop-off programs?
Guidepost Bali Camp (ages 3-6) and Green Camp AYANA (ages 7-12) are true drop-off programs where parents and nannies do not stay. Both are led by trained facilitators, with structured schedules, meals included, and regular parent updates (Guidepost sends photo updates shortly after drop-off; Green Camp provides daily reflection reports with photos and videos). The complimentary kids clubs (Ocean Adventure and RIMBA) are also supervised drop-in zones, though Coralight splash area requires parent presence.
Can non-resort guests join Guidepost or Green Camp?
Yes. Both Guidepost Bali Camp and Green Camp AYANA are open to outside guests, not just AYANA in-house guests. This makes them a great option for families staying elsewhere in Bali who want access to structured, high-quality children's programming. Outside guests should book in advance through the AYANA website or by contacting the resort directly, as capacity is limited (Green Camp accommodates up to 20 children per session).
Can the nanny service help with activities around the resort?
Yes. AYANA nannies can accompany children to kids clubs, the pool, AYANA Farm, SAKA Museum, and other child-friendly resort experiences. They can also provide in-room childcare for naps, meals, and bedtime. All nannies have completed AYANA's certification program, which includes training in first aid, feeding techniques, and bathing procedures. Nannies are available from 06:00 to 23:00, with a minimum booking of 2 hours and at least 24 hours' advance notice required.
Can nannies join off-property day trips?
Nannies may be available for select off-property outings; for Waterbom, parent accompaniment is required.
What should my child bring for camps?
For Green Camp AYANA, pack comfortable closed-toe shoes (no sandals — they'll be climbing and walking through nature), a hat, sunscreen, mosquito repellent, a reusable water bottle, and a light layer for shade breaks. For Guidepost Bali Camp, comfortable play clothes are sufficient — lunch is included and the program takes place across shaded resort spaces. Sunscreen and insect repellent should be applied before drop-off.
When should we book?
For the easiest planning, book camps and nanny service as early as possible during peak seasons: July-August (summer holidays), mid-to-late December (winter holidays), and Chinese New Year. Green Camp has a capacity of 20 children per session and requires a minimum of 2 to run. Guidepost Bali Camp holiday sessions often fill weeks in advance. Nanny service requires at least 24 hours' advance booking, with a 2-hour minimum per session. Evening slots (for sunset dinners at Rock Bar or KISIK) are the first to book out.
Do kids need socks or shoes at the kids clubs?
Yes. At both AYANA Ocean Adventure and RIMBA Jungle Adventure, socks are required for all indoor play areas — this applies to climbing structures, ball pits, and soft-play zones. For outdoor activities (especially RIMBA's flying fox, rope climbing, and air slide), proper closed-toe shoes are required. Sandals and flip-flops are not allowed in outdoor adventure areas. Pack a pair of socks and comfortable shoes in your day bag to avoid a trip back to the room.
What are the nanny service rates and cancellation policy?
AYANA nanny service is charged at IDR 150,000++/hour/child during the day (06:00-23:00) and IDR 250,000++/hour/child for overnight care (00:00-06:00). Minimum booking is 2 hours with at least 24 hours' advance notice. Cancellation must be made at least 4 hours before the service; a cancellation fee of IDR 200,000++ applies. For children aged 4 and below, each nanny can care for a maximum of 2 children at a time.
Are there evening childcare options at AYANA?
Yes. AYANA Kids Evening Activities run at RIMBA Kids Club on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays from 17:30 to 20:30, priced at IDR 250,000++/child. This is a supervised, paid program — ideal for parents planning a sunset dinner at Rock Bar, KISIK, or Dava Steak & Seafood. Alternatively, book a nanny for the evening (available until 23:00) for more flexible 1:1 care in your room or around the resort. Evening nanny slots fill quickly during peak season, so book at least a day ahead.
