Desa Kitsuné vs Les Toilettes: Canggu or Seminyak tonight?

Both let you have dinner and dance at the same address, which is why they are often weighed against each other. Desa Kitsuné is a lifestyle village in Canggu by the Savaya Group and Maison Kitsuné, where the Garden becomes a 21+ party every Tuesday and Friday, rain or shine, and the Ina Ré restaurant shares the grounds. Les Toilettes is the K-Club Group's nightclub on Jalan Petitenget in Seminyak, at the same address as Sardine, the group's seafood restaurant. One is a garden party on two set nights; the other a nightclub in Seminyak. FirstBali arranges both through the concierge.

Desa Kitsuné is a lifestyle village in the heart of Canggu — desa means village — set in a 5,000 m² garden by the Savaya Group with the French-Japanese brand Maison Kitsuné. Café Kitsuné, the Ina Ré restaurant and a Maison Kitsuné boutique share the grounds, and every Tuesday and Friday the Garden becomes the party, rain or shine: guest DJs on Tuesdays, Bali-based DJs on Fridays.

Les Toilettes

Clubs · Seminyak

Les Toilettes is the K-Club Group's nightclub on Jalan Petitenget in Seminyak, at the same address as Sardine, the group's seafood restaurant, so dinner and a late night can happen in one place. Now in its 2.0 version, the club draws on club concepts from around the world. Entry is for guests aged 21 and over, at the door's discretion, and the dress code is smart: no flip-flops, sandals or sportswear.

The short answer

• A party in a garden: Desa Kitsuné, whose Garden is the dance floor.
• A club in Seminyak: Les Toilettes, on Jalan Petitenget.
• Dinner first without changing address: both — Ina Ré at Desa Kitsuné, Sardine at Les Toilettes.
• A Tuesday or Friday: Desa Kitsuné parties on those two nights; for other nights, the concierge checks Les Toilettes for your date.

The setting

Desa Kitsuné — desa means village — is a garden in the heart of Canggu shared by Café Kitsuné, Ina Ré and a Maison Kitsuné boutique. The party happens in the Garden itself, rain or shine. The pool on the grounds is decorative, not for swimming.

Les Toilettes, now in its 2.0 version, draws on club concepts from around the world. It belongs to the K-Club Group and shares its address with Sardine, so the evening can move from a seafood table to the dance floor without a car in between. See the Les Toilettes guide.

The music

At Desa Kitsuné, Tuesdays bring guest DJs and Fridays Bali-based DJs. The Tuesday and Friday guide explains how the two nights differ. The night-by-night line-up is on the events calendar below.

For Les Toilettes, ask the concierge what the club has planned for your date.

Dinner before

At Desa Kitsuné, Ina Ré is on the same grounds; Desa Kitsuné and Ina Ré covers how the two fit into one evening.

At Les Toilettes, Sardine is the group's seafood restaurant at the same address, so dinner and a late night can happen in one place.

Ina Ré

Restaurants · Canggu

Ina Ré is the restaurant of Desa Kitsuné, the lifestyle village on Jalan Munduk Catu in Canggu. Chilean executive chef Cristian Encina brings together Mediterranean flavours and Latin American street food: paellas to share, ceviches, tacos, empanadas and wood-fired meats such as the Stockyard tomahawk. The space draws on Balinese arts and crafts, with handmade materials, weavings and traditional motifs, and includes private dining rooms for groups. Sunday brunch has its own menu, and so do Courtyard Saturdays.

Sardine

Restaurants · Seminyak

Sardine by K-Club is a seafood restaurant on Jalan Petitenget in Seminyak, set in an open-air bamboo building that looks over a stretch of rice paddies, with a terrace for lunch or dinner. The kitchen cooks the daily catch (yellowfin tuna, scallops, snapper) in a modern Mediterranean style, with vegetables from its own farms and a vegetarian set menu. Evenings can run late: Les Toilettes, the hidden club on site, hosts DJs, and once a month The Gates of Bali brings fire dancers and aerial acts.

Getting in

Desa Kitsuné parties are 21+ with a valid photo ID, passport or driver's licence, and smart casual. On many nights the venue runs its own guestlist: each guest registers on the night's page, joining is free, and entry is complimentary before the cutoff shown on that page, earlier for men. Registration does not guarantee complimentary entry, and the venue states that mixed groups and couples are strongly preferred. Some nights are ticketed only. Read the Desa Kitsuné guestlist guide.

Les Toilettes is for guests aged 21 and over, at the door's discretion, and its dress code is smart: no flip-flops, sandals or sportswear.

Reserved space

At Desa Kitsuné, a table is the only reserved space. The venue sets its minimum spend per night, the flyer's Table button on the events page opens the night's table map, and FirstBali books with the venue. The table is yours once the venue confirms it; any deposit follows the venue's terms and is not a confirmation.

At Les Toilettes, the concierge asks the club what it can reserve for your date and comes back with its terms. Nothing is confirmed until the club confirms it, and entry stays at the door's discretion.

Which one fits your plan

• Desa Kitsuné offers a garden party on Tuesdays and Fridays in Canggu, guest or Bali-based DJs, dinner at Ina Ré and a venue-run guestlist on many nights.
• Les Toilettes offers a Seminyak nightclub built on club concepts from around the world, with Sardine at the same address for dinner.

Choosing by area is often the simplest test: stay in Canggu for Desa Kitsuné, in Seminyak for Les Toilettes. If you are torn between Seminyak options, Muin or Les Toilettes compares the club with another neighbour.

Tell the concierge the date, how many you are and whether you want dinner first. The team checks what can be arranged and comes back with each venue's terms. An assistant answers at any hour, the team through the Bali day and evening.
