Java and Bali are two of Indonesia's more pleasant islands, though the chill-out island of Bali is rapidly disappearing under a tsunami of uncontrolled concrete and brick, replacing spirituality with crime, temples with megahotels, festivals with raves and terraced rice fields with car parks.
However, the beaches are still there, along with volcanoes, terrific cuisine and friendly people, though they're not as relaxed as they used to be. Kuta and Legian are the island's most famous beaches.
Muslim Java is altogether busier and less beautiful, particularly the unattractive capital of Jakarta, though Borobudur is worth an effort to see.
For real, off-planet weirdness see Bugbog's other Indonesia pictures of Sulawesi and Irian Jaya.

The best time to be in tropical Indonesia is in the dry season April - September. Other months may have rains, wind, rough seas, seaweedy sand and oppressive humidity.
