Hassle-free shopping at fixed price shops in Sanur

I absolutely love shopping in Bali. There’s nothing like picking up a bargain and something that I love, but haggling, bartering and dodging the ladies who follow you gets tiring. The constant ‘how much is this?’ and the inevitable 20-minute battle in the heat that follows makes me sweat thinking about it.

For these reasons and many more, I seek out the fixed price shops in Sanur to ensure an enjoyable shopping experience. I leave happy that I have paid a fair price for something and that I have supported a local business. There’s so much more to shopping in Sanur than the fixed price shops, but they’re a great place to start if you know where to go.

Why do I visit fixed-price shops in Sanur?

I dislike haggling because the prices are always extremely high, and I struggle to get down to a fair price. I don’t like haggling over 20 cents, and if I would pay $10 for a pair of pants or shirt at Kmart or Target at home, why wouldn’t I in Sanur?

That is how I feel about it, but plenty will disagree. I can make haggling or bartering in Sanur a sport, but I would just prefer to have the prices in front of me to make my Sanur shopping experience in Sanur an enjoyable one.

So I put this guide together of the fixed price shops in Sanur so you can make your shopping in Sanur experience hassle free and easy.

What is a fixed price shop in Sanur?

Fixed price shops in Bali are where the seller either displays the prices on the item or can give you a price immediately.

Many will have a fixed price below their name on their shop sign. We haven’t included places like the Atasedana department store Sanur because they are known to be fixed-price shops in Sanur and may not have the replica items you are looking for.

Where are the fixed price shops in Sanur?

Along Jalan Danau Tamblingan, you will find plenty of little boutique stores. These are mainly fixed-price stores, but you can find some that still haggle over the price.

The most popular fixed-price shops with all the fake items are in the Baruna Beach Market and our favourite one is in the Sindhu Beach Market. For the full rundown on every market in the area, see our guide to the markets in Sanur.

Fixed price shops on Jalan Danau Tamblingan

You will find most of the shops with glass exteriors and air conditioning to be fixed-price shops on Danau Tamblingan. If you are staying in the central area of Sanur, I have found one fixed price store from a local lady, Enny.

Enny’s Fixed Price Shop – Jl. Danau Tamblingan No 192

People told me there were none on Jalan Danau Tamblingan, but I have shopped at Enny’s for a couple of years now while staying in this area of Sanur, usually at the Hotel Jati.

Enny’s has a great range of clothes, bags and souvenirs in Sanur

Enny is a lovely lady. She usually has a couple of her younger family members in the shop with her.

While she does not have a massive range, you can get plenty of sarongs, pants, and T-shirts from her there. She can get it if she doesn’t have it, but if you order from her, please go back and pick it up or pay a small deposit.

What can you buy at Enny’s fixed price shop Sanur:

  • Singlets, t-shirts
  • Hats and sarongs
  • Handbags but not replicas
  • Gorgeous dresses and skirts
  • Small trinkets and hair accessories

Fixed price shops on Jalan Danau Cemara

A huge thank you to one of our members in the Things to do in Sanur Facebook group. Leanne let me know about a small fixed-price shop on JL Cemara.

You will find this fixed-price shop in Sanur just past the roundabout on the left hand side. If you are staying at the southern end of Sanur this may be one of the only options you have for fixed price shopping.

Nuii Collections

Sari is the owner of the shop and she was lovely as soon as I walked in. I had no idea it was here and it was a great surprise.

It is a small shop jam-packed with items. There is a small changing room, and the shop is air-conditioned.

What can you buy at Nuii Collection:

  • Sarongs, flowy dresses, singlets
  • T-shirts, shorts and birkenstock shoes

Fixed Price shops in Baruna Beach Market

Here, you will find the most fixed-price stores in one place, and they are the most popular shops in Sanur for prices. The Baruna Markets Sanur are the most popular choice for clothes shopping in Sanur.

No matter where people are staying in Sanur they head here either by foot, Grab or hired scooter to get their shopping completed!

Tootsies

This was my first time visiting Tootsies which also has a small cafe at the beach end of the Baruna Beach Market. Tootsies has to be the most famous of the Baruna Beach Market fixed price shops.

I liked the range, but I did feel a little pushed by the ladies there on the day. They showed me things I did not want to look at and had not asked to see. I understand they need to sell it, but I found it was not for me.

What can you buy from Tootsies Sanur:

You can find plenty of replica handbags, perfumes and clothing in this shop.

  • Perfume
  • Clothes – Bintang Singlets, hats and dresses
  • Sunglasses

Monica’s Fixed Price Store Sanur

Tucked away at the back of the alley at Baruna Beach Market is Monica Shop Sanur. It is a nice, clean shop with a great layout and air conditioning. I met Monica at the shop, and she was a lovely lady.

All you have to do is ask the server what the price is, and they will tell you. However, they did have some labelled items, like the incense coils and the Miranda hair spray.

What can you buy from Monica’s Sanur:

  • Hardcover suitcases

  • Incense coils

Sikis Fixed Price Store No 5

This shop is just across from Tootsies, and I can tell you it is bursting at the seams with clothing and other items, so much so it can be overwhelming to walk around and find what you are looking for.

The staff actually have to help you due to it being jam-packed with products. I found that once a couple of people got in there, it became a bit hard to focus on what you were doing, and it got very hectic very quickly for me.

What can you buy from Sikis:

  • Keyrings
  • Replica bags, wallets, perfume and sunglasses
  • Dresses, shorts, hats and singlets
  • Ellipse hair care products, Miranfda hair care products and incense

Top tip for entry to the Baruna Beach Market

We all know the fear of seeing the ladies lined up on the beach waiting for you to walk past any of the Sanur beach markets. As soon as you approach, you are greeted with, “You come to my shop?” and from there, you are followed and questioned continuously.

For first-timers to Bali, this can be really difficult, and for regular visitors to Bali, it is something you try to avoid at all costs.

You can gain entrance to the Baruna Beach Market off Jalan Pantai Sindhu. Find the Mahapala Hotel, and across the road from that is a small alleyway. It has a sign for the Segara Ink Tattoo on the side of the building.

If you go down here, it leads you to the back of the alley where all the shops are located. There are no ladies waiting there to get you into their shops.

Fixed price shops in Sindhu Beach Market

This is my go-to location in Sanur. We could find only one fixed-price store in the Sindhu Beach Market.

Jeny’s Fixed Price Store

This one is my favourite, and I love seeing Jeny when I return. It is very much a no hassle shop, and Jeny is lovely. I find that she helps, but she does not hover around me, and if I ask a question, then she is happy to assist rather than constantly bringing me items I am not interested in.

What I also love about Jeny’s shop is that there are prices ON THE ITEMS, and if you are unsure, she will show you where the prices are so you know it is fixed-price shopping.

* Jeny has a small change room at the back of the store, but the shop is not airconditioned

What can you buy from Jeny’s:

  • Wallets, suitcases and handbags
  • Sarongs, hats and dresses
  • There is a small selection of jewellery
  • Incense coils and coil holders

We did notice that after we left Jeny’s Fixed Price Shop in Sindhu Beach Market, some of the other stallholders took us to their shops, and there was no haggling.

They gave us the same price as Jeny, and we actually ended up buying a little bit extra from the stores right up the back.

Is there a difference between Sindhu Beach Market and Baruna Beach Market?

Yes, they are two completely different beach markets in Sanur. We were looking for a shop as we were told it was at the Sindhu Market, but it was actually at the Baruna Market.

You see, the markets are pretty close together

They are not too far apart, probably a 5-minute walk between the two.

Sindhu Beach Market can only be accessed via the beach, whereas Baruna has access from Jalan Pantai Sindhu as well as off the beach.

Tips for shopping at a fixed price store in Sanur

There are a few things that you should know before going into a fixed-price market store in Sanur:

  • Most shops will have EFTPOS facilities but will charge between 3 – 10% surcharge
  • Nearly all have a small changing room, but they can be hot and stuffy
  • The perfume is nice, but it is not original. Buy at your own risk
  • If you go back, they will remember you, fixed price or not
  • If they start to bargain, they are not a fixed-price store

*I bought a couple of fake perfumes, and I find them to be good on my skin. I have not had a reaction and have not had dye on my skin, either, which I was told can happen. They smell the same but don’t last as long as my genuine ones.

Shopping in Sanur, Bali can be as good as Kuta or Legian. There just may not be an extensive and crazy number of items on offer there. I must admit I was overwhelmed with the shopping options in Legian and would much prefer the smaller shops in Sanur, Bali.

FAQs about fixed price shops in Sanur

What is a fixed price shop in Sanur?

A fixed price shop is one where the seller either displays the price on the item or gives you a set price straight away, with no haggling. Many have “fixed price” written on their shop sign. It makes shopping in Sanur far more relaxed if you don’t enjoy bartering.

Where are the best fixed price shops in Sanur?

The biggest concentration is in the Baruna Beach Market (try Tootsies, Monica’s and Sikis), with our personal favourite being Jeny’s in the Sindhu Beach Market. You’ll also find fixed price boutiques along Jalan Danau Tamblingan, like Enny’s, and one on Jalan Cemara at the southern end.

Is there a difference between Sindhu Beach Market and Baruna Beach Market?

Yes, they are two completely different markets, about a 5-minute walk apart. Sindhu Beach Market can only be accessed from the beach, while Baruna has access from both Jalan Pantai Sindhu and the beach. Both have fixed price shops among the regular stalls.

Can you pay by card at fixed price shops in Sanur?

Most shops have EFTPOS facilities, but they usually add a surcharge of between 3% and 10% for card payments. If you want to avoid the surcharge, bring cash — and small denominations are always handy.

How do I get into the Baruna Beach Market without being hassled?

There’s a quieter entrance off Jalan Pantai Sindhu. Find the Mahapala Hotel, and across the road is a small alleyway with a Segara Ink Tattoo sign on the building. Head down there and it leads to the back of the market with no sellers waiting to pull you into their shops.

Do you really get a fair price at fixed price shops?

In our experience, yes — the prices are reasonable and you skip the stress of haggling. We’ve also found that after buying from a fixed price shop like Jeny’s, nearby stallholders will often match that price without any bartering.
