• No.40 The World's 50 Best Hotels 2023

Located within Bali’s Potato Head creative enclave, Desa Potato Head offers a singular blend of boutique hotel, beach club and cultural hub. Every day, it draws in global creatives, hedonists and locals with ever-evolving art installations, concept stores and buzzing seaside bar. The whole complex is an architecturally striking affair, with recycled and upcycled materials utilised across the property on the back of Founder Ronald Akili's motto, 'Good Times Do Good.’ Everything at Potato Head is driven by its sustainable ethos – it was the first Asian hospitality brand to go carbon-neutral. Within the accommodation area, Desa Potato Head epitomises tropical modernism in its 225 rooms, blending exposed walls, natural materials and mid-century furniture. Its six diverse restaurants, located from beachside to rooftop, focus on authentic Indonesian dishes with a farm-to-fork angle. Akademi, one of its beloved open-air bars, crafts contemporary libations using traditional local spirits, with Potato Head Beach Club also renowned for its stellar seaside serves. Activities encompass immersive cultural experiences like ikat weaving, wellness offerings such as yoga and breathwork and a multi-sensory nightclub – you are in Bali, after all.
