Several accomodations could be prepared to support your contemplation. If you think the sound of fireworks will disturb your contemplation, you can choose a room or inn in rural area.

If you want to get involved with the crowd in the new year eve, you should stay in hotel, resort, or another inn nearby. First you have to be sure about the place you want to attend. Then you search and book the accomodation that available. I suggest you to do that months before December or you have to stay in a warm little tend accompanied by thousands of mosquitos.

Especially in restricted party area, be sure that you have booked your seat several weeks before new year. Famous bands and singers usually invite to perform in new year, so make sure that you do not miss your favorite one.
Last but not least, you should respect Balinesse norms and values. Several places like temple is sacred. You should obey the rules around those places even in the party time. You might do not allowed to go inside, make some noise, or just trespassing. If you do not know the rules, better ask the natives. Breaking the rules will make your new year eve miserable. I guarantee.
