Experts' Choice Award Desa Seni
What the experts agree on
This traditional Indonesian village resort trades typical resort polish for authentic charm—antique joglos, rice fields, and art create a serene, bohemian escape near Seminyak that feels refreshingly different from Bali's synthetic alternatives.
“A short drive from Seminyak along Bali’s winding back roads, Desa Seni is a change from the synthetic perfection of most resorts in Bali.”
