Lawn, pool or shade
On the lawn, low tables and deep green cushions suit a group sharing food. Daybeds by the pool look out towards the water. Beside the beach there’s also yellow-upholstered seating under cover, a good option for reading or lunch out of the direct sun.
Walk-in guests are welcome when space is available. If you have a particular daybed in mind, the booking page shows the available areas and what each option includes. The club recommends arriving ahead of sunset. Entry arrangements can vary with your arrival time and that evening’s programme.
From the bar and kitchen
A Kookaburra or an alcohol-free drink
The Kookaburra pairs lemongrass gin with mint, passion fruit and turmeric foam. For an alcohol-free alternative, the Desa Electrolyte brings together coconut water, strawberry, citrus and salt from Kusamba on Bali.
A pizza with Balinese seasoning
The Spice Boy pizza comes with pork belly, Balinese basa genep seasoning and sambal mbe. If tastes at the table vary, add the Plant Powered board. It combines fresh, grilled and pickled vegetables with dips and flatbreads.
Look for the Reimagined Classics on the drinks list, too. The bar puts juice, zest and leftover citrus pulp to use again in these cocktails. It’s a small detail that connects an order at the bar to the building around it. The shutters found a second life in the façade, and the citrus gets one behind the counter.
After the sun goes down
Give yourself an unhurried afternoon if you’d like to stay from lunch through sunset. In daylight you can pick out the colours of the shutters and watch the waves roll in. Later the sky reflects in the pool while the music carries on. Check the programme if there’s a particular kind of night you’d like to catch.
For dinner you can stay with the beach club menu or try Kaum, the Indonesian restaurant within Desa Potato Head. Kaum has its own menu and reservations. If the food matters as much as the view, take a look at both before setting out.
