If traveling from the US, do i need a visa? or is it highly recommended?

Hi, I'm planning on traveling from the United States to visit Bali, Indonesia. I've read that the US needs a Visa in order to visit, but I've also read that there's a new Visa on Arrival that can be issued for a price when entering at certain airports. Is the Visa on Arrival easy to obtain? I have more than 6 months left on my passport (much more).

Or would it be recommended to obtain a Visa before leaving the US? Also, how much would the Visa on Arrival cost?

thank you!
