you normally would at home. Most times dress codes arent enforced but if you are in a flash restaurant or a club you should still dress appropriately. if you wouldnt wear thongs into a restaurant at home why do it in Bali.
Also, take decent shoes with you if you are intending to do much walking, feet swollen from unused to heat and blisters from new, flimsy shoes are a holiday killer and dont rely on thongs for around the pool and other wet areas. Those tiles that look beautiful, glossy and very shiny are really really slippery. Wearing something with a bit of grip could be the difference between an injury or not.
And I agree with everything Jano said.
