Two things to note though:

1. Flights from CGK to DPS are somewhat unreliable (i.e. regularly delayed), so on your way back, I'd plan a short stay in CGK (2-3 days) instead of connecting to JL the same day. I did that and almost missed my JL flight. It was a lot of stress. If you have no interest staying in CGK, I'd say this extra connection is more trouble than it's worth.

2. Beware that Bali will likely be VERY popular later this year, like extremely expensive hotels and super crowded sights. Asia is opening up and remember how people couldn't even find a rental car in Hawaii last year? Bali to lots of Asian tourists is like what Hawaii is to US tourists.
