Bali is one of the best-value luxury destinations in the world. Five-star resorts cost $100-300/night in cash, street food is $1-3 per meal, and private drivers cost $30-50 for a full day. When you combine these low ground costs with points-funded flights and hotels, Bali becomes the ultimate bucket-list trip for points travelers.
