Expert Review
Origins
Desa Seni, meaning "art village," was brought to life by friends Thomas Talucci and Howard Klein, who envisioned recreating an authentic Indonesian village. After a decade immersed in Indonesia's rich culture, they collected antique wooden homes from various islands, restoring each with care. Their dream materialized into a sustainable sanctuary that celebrates Indonesian heritage, community integration, and holistic wellness.
Top Secret
Hidden among the gardens is a tiny antique prayer pavilion—untouched, serene, and often missed. Step inside at sunrise, and you might catch the staff placing offerings, accompanied by birdsong and incense—a spiritual, almost cinematic moment few guests ever stumble upon.
The Review
Arriving at Desa Seni feels like stepping into a living, breathing Balinese painting. Traditional joglo houses—each lovingly transported from different Indonesian islands—dot a lush garden filled with lotus ponds, sculpture-lined paths, and the faint scent of frangipani in the air. The check-in is as relaxed as the setting, with a lemongrass welcome drink and smiles so genuine they feel like old friends.
Each villa is a work of art—hand-carved wood, rich textiles, and thoughtful touches that whisper heritage and soul. Morning yoga in the open-air bale is a must: surrounded by chirping birds and rustling palms, it feels like a sacred ritual. Between classes, lounge by the saltwater pool, explore nearby Berawa Beach, or indulge in a garden-to-table lunch at the on-site restaurant—packed with organic ingredients harvested just steps away.
There’s a quiet rhythm to life here, one that syncs beautifully with your own after just a day. And when it’s time to leave, the farewell is as warm as the welcome—complete with a small blessing and a knowing look that says, you’ll be back. Desa Seni doesn’t just host you; it gently restores you.
