Total Daily Budget by Traveller Type
Before breaking down individual costs, here's the big picture — what you'll actually spend per day in Bali including everything, not just yoga:
| Category | Budget Traveller | Mid-Range | Luxury |
|---|---|---|---|
| Yoga classes | $5–12 | $12–25 | $25–200 |
| Accommodation | $8–20 | $30–80 | $100–500+ |
| Food (3 meals) | $6–12 | $15–35 | $40–100+ |
| Transport | $3–5 | $5–15 | $15–50 |
| Incidentals | $2–5 | $5–15 | $15–50 |
| Daily Total | $25–55 | $70–170 | $200–900+ |
| Weekly Total | $175–385 | $490–1,190 | $1,400–6,300+ |
| Monthly Total | $750–1,650 | $2,100–5,100 | $6,000–27,000+ |
Bottom line: A month of daily yoga in Bali with food and accommodation can cost less than a single week at a wellness retreat in California or Switzerland. That's the value proposition.

Food Costs
Food in Bali ranges from incredibly cheap to resort-priced, and it directly impacts your yoga practice.
| Meal Type | Budget | Mid-Range | Luxury |
|---|---|---|---|
| Breakfast | $1–3 (local warung) | $4–8 (café) | $10–25 (resort) |
| Lunch | $2–4 (nasi campur) | $5–12 (health café) | $15–40 (fine dining) |
| Dinner | $2–5 (local restaurant) | $6–15 (international) | $20–60 (resort) |
| Smoothie bowl | $2–3 (local) | $5–8 (tourist café) | $10–15 (luxury) |

| Daily total | $6–12 | $15–35 | $40–100+ |
