SimplyAbuDhabi XLVII

Guest Rooms No two of The Purist’s 18 suites and villas are identical, but all share a devotion to local crafts, natural textures, and relaxed indulgence. Pool suites and private villas are each flanked by their own lush gardens, with tranquil terraces and private daybeds teasing you to linger in the open air. Inside, stone and wood come alive—chunky lamps, woven baskets, and bespoke furniture echoing the artistry of the region. Many villas feature wide balconies or outdoor lounges overlooking verdant jungle. Canopied beds are dressed in billowing white cotton, inviting afternoon dreams or late- morning idleness. Bathrooms are generously scaled, some with granite tubs ample enough for two, perfectly suited for long soaks beneath the hush of swaying trees. Every comfort is thoughtfully anticipated: yoga mats, batik kimonos, flasks of cold water, and an understated technology suite from flat-screens to curated DVD collections. Spaciousness and privacy are woven into every corner, ensuring restful days and restorative nights. Hospitality At The Purist, hospitality is an art quietly mastered. The predominantly Balinese staff embody an intuitive grace— greeting you by name, anticipating unspoken needs, and always eager to help whether arranging a spa ritual, preparing a surprise birthday cake, or offering advice on temples and markets in Ubud. The shuttle service operates with comforting reliability, and the absence of formality fosters a relaxed ease. It’s no wonder there is a high number of returning guests. Eni Ariyanthi says: “Many of our guests form a personal connection with The Purist, often returning year after year to rediscover the calm, beauty, and authenticity they find here. This deep appreciation is reflected in the glowing reviews shared on various guest review platforms. At The Purist, we’ve created a sanctuary that embodies this lifestyle—where every detail, from architecture to hospitality, is thoughtfully crafted with intention and integrity. We continuously strive to meet and exceed our guests’ expectations.” Simply Abu Dhabi | 265
