While the immediate area is all hustle and bustle, the atmosphere throughout the Dipan Resort is laid back and interiors are contemporary and elegant. Iconic photographs of Bali and Indonesia line the cafe and lobby walls, helping to remind guests where they are -- as if there was any question about this, given the vibrant green landscaping all around. Like many small boutique resorts in this part of Bali, the action centers on the hotel's pool, which is set in a tropical garden surrounded by white stone walls, thick green foliage, palms, and flowering frangipani. The calm vibe is helped by a handful of private and cozy places to unwind or socialize, including a wooden gazebo by the pool and the hotel's cafe. Despite its large, mutli-room villas, the Dipan mostly draws couples, which isn't a surprise given the romantic, exclusive vibe and the location near plenty of dining and drinking. #createwithtrip #staycation
