TL;DR
For a quiet Bali stay, travelers often prefer Nusa Dua for easy walks and calmer beaches like Geger and Mengiat. If you do not mind driving more, Uluwatu works well for access to Melasti Beach, while Ubud is a good inland base for a peaceful atmosphere.
If you want a quiet South Bali resort with little to no nightlife, Nusa Dua is a strong option. For beach time, Geger Beach and Mengiat Beach stand out as calmer spots that are comfortable for relaxed walks.
Travelers who want quiet, greenery, and fewer people often choose Nusa Dua specifically as a peaceful base. It works well if you want a slow-paced stay with access to well-kept beaches.
If you stay in Uluwatu, Melasti Beach gets especially strong reviews and is often mentioned as one of the best beaches in South Bali. Just keep in mind that if your hotel is not right by the coast, you will likely spend a lot of time driving.
If atmosphere matters more than beaches, Ubud is often preferred for its peaceful feel and slower pace. For green scenery, Jatiluwih is worth adding, but it is best visited when the rice terraces are lush rather than after harvest.
