"In the hotel world there are a few things worth being a purist about, and the tradition of the Balinese boutique hotel is one of them. A mile or so outside of the town of Ubud, in Bali’s inner highlands, is a hotel that’s as close as you’re going to get to the Platonic idea of the modern villa resort. The Purist’s 16 villas and suites are exemplary for the care with which they’ve been assembled — at up to two bedrooms apiece, they’re practically residential in the quality of their finishes and furnishings." - Tablet Hotels
