Been there twice and its great (summer 07 and this july). Dont miss Gili Islands, its the nuts. (Esp if you are into mushrooms or diving or booth =)
They take security very serious on upscale hotels and I wouldnt be worried. I would def go there again soon.
The general population pretty much hate those groups, cause its soo bad for tourism. And most are are Hindu (93.18% vs Muslim 4.79%), so they really dont support that ****.
