Luxury Escape Small Hotels Bali Style

For a boutique hotel to be included in the Secret Retreats curated collection it has offer certain qualities, with perhaps the most important of these being a sense of place. Many of the best luxury romantic hotels in Bali offer fantastic service, excellent dining, beautiful rooms and all the facilities a modern traveller wants, but in many of these Bali luxury hotels the most important quality for a Secret Retreats property is missing, the sense of place, you could in fact be in any luxury hotel in the world. The charm and character that is unique to Bali is missing or hard to find, hidden beneath the corporate responsibility to provide a standardized modern service that makes for a good hospitality business but doesn’t necessarily make for a uniquely memorable stay. A Secret Retreats Bali boutique small hotel is a privately owned and independent hotel, often family owned and the home of the owner, their passion for their home town or region is shared within the guest experience.

With a stay in a Secret Retreats hotel you are a guest in a home, not simply a client within a hotel.

Our hoteliers’ goal is to share with you their home, from the flavours of their favourite dishes to the stories behind their culture, art and traditions, it is these qualities that will provide your stay with a true sense of place.

Itineraries in Indonesia:

The Best of Bali

Bali offers a wealth of variety of experiences to the traveller. Part of the Indonesian archipelago, it is quite a small island at just 50miles wide and 90miles long making all of Bali easily accessible over a Bali holiday visit. A stay on Bali would not be complete without experiencing the white sand beaches of Bali’s south and also enjoying a stay in the mountainous centre of the island. A few days in Ubud, a small town set within forest and mountain, is essential to experiencing the real Bali. Home to many artists and traditional Balinese artisans, Ubud is the perfect base for exploring Bali’s verdant centre, with the stunning rice terraces on the south side of the mountains and the coffee plantations on the mountains’ northern slopes and of course Bali’s highest mountain, also an active volcano, Mount Agung, on Ubud’s doorstep. There is a Secret Retreats luxury boutique hotel in Bali perfectly placed in all the best locations to explore and enjoy Bali’s unique beauty.
