Poppies Bali offers just twenty luxuriously appointed thatch-roofed cottages that nestle in gardens of hibiscus, scented jasmine, and frangipani. Red brick paths meander past lily ponds, waterfalls, and time-worn stone figures, watched over by the towering palms of an ancient coconut grove.

Over the past two and a half decades many of the true Bali-philes have made their way to Poppies. Today, despite being a veritable institution, Poppies is still being discovered by those new to the delights of Bali as well as those wishing to escape the glitz and glamour of grandiose hotels.
