If you’re looking for a night of free-flow drinks and an all-you-can-eat night out, LXXY in Bali is the perfect choice. You might be wondering if it’s worth the entry price and what you should know before you go, which is why we came up with this complete review.
LXXY is one of Kuta’s biggest nightclubs and is on the fast track to being one of the most popular ones in Bali.
It has three areas: INKK, a venue space open for specific events, then there’s the LYYX nightclub, and finally, the rooftop pool club. The latter is where the nightly all-inclusive BBQ is held, which is the main focus of this post.

Why you can trust this review of LXXY Bali
Hi, I’m Victoria, and I’m your go-to source for Bali and Indonesia travel information.
I’ve lived on this beautiful island for several years now and visited plenty of times before that, both as a tourist and backpacker. I know how to save money and when to splurge on things, so I’ll introduce you to the best luxury getaways for a special occasion but also the cheapest airport pickups and fun group tours you can join if you want to make friends.
I’ve been coming to LXXY regularly for almost five years now, and I’ve been keeping this review up-to-date whenever something changes. Recently, they increased the prices quite a bit and also implemented new rules, including a-la-carte orders limited to three plates at a time, instead of their usual buffet.
This had quite an impact on my experience at LXXY Bali and my past reviews, so make sure to keep reading to find out if coming here is still worth it.
Where is LXXY in Bali?
LXXY is located on Kuta’s popular party street, Jalan Legian. This is the place where thousands of tourists get drunk every night and can be compared to Spain’s Lloret de Mar or Magaluf.
This street is probably the main reason for Kuta’s questionable reputation, but if you’re looking for Bali’s wildest nights out, then this is the place to go. This part of Kuta is also very walkable compared to most other parts of Bali. If you’re getting around Kuta and Seminyak by grab or gojek, you need to watch out for these areas, though.
Address: Jln Legian No.71, Kuta, Badung Regency, Bali 80361, Indonesia
OUR TIP
Staying in Seminyak but want to give Canggu a try? You can actually walk there along the beach in around 45 minutes and Canggu has the best nightclubs, beach clubs and sports bars.

All-you-can-eat&drink nights in Bali
The all-you-can-eat&drink-BBQ isn’t a new phenomenon in Bali. There are several other establishments that offer very similar events, most notably Skygarden and ShiShi in Seminyak.
Skygarden has a similar setup with a popular club downstairs and a rooftop lounge where visitors can enjoy an all-you-can-eat BBQ and free-flow drinks from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM.
LXXY used to set itself apart by having a six-hour free flow for only IDR 120,000 per person, but they recently increased the prices and limited the duration to only three hours.
In comparison, Skygarden offers an extended package (5:00 PM to 9:00 PM) for IDR 30,000 (~ €1.90) more. This is quite reasonable, however, it would require you to arrive very early to get your money’s worth of drinks.
Update: Skygarden has undergone extensive renovations and is currently not offering their famous all-you-can-eat-and-drink BBQ. From what we’ve heard this event will be back soon.
Skygarden is definitely more famous than LXXY, but it’s also been around longer. In the end, it’s up to you which one you choose. Skygarden doesn’t always have the best reputation, but reviews are mixed.
We generally prefer LXXY because it tends to be less crowded and offers better quality, especially if you want to celebrate your birthday in Bali.

LXXY prices and opening times
The free-flow drinks and all-you-can-eat menu are available at the LXXY Bali Pool Club from 6:00 PM to 12:00 AM daily. You can arrive at any point during this time frame and will have to pay IDR 200,000 (~ €12) for the whole package.
The free flow is now limited to three hours, and you will have to pay IDR 200,000 per person again if you want to stay longer than that.
If you arrive after 10:30 PM, the entrance price is only IDR 150,000 per person, but you will only have free-flow and all-you-can eat until midnight, so 1.5 hours.
The LXXY nightclub opens later during the night, usually at around 11:00 PM.
From Sundays to Thursdays you can get six entrance tickets to LXXY Bali for the price of five.
OUR TIP
LXXY used to have an all-you-can-eat BBQ buffet with live cooking, but unfortunately, that is no longer the case. They recently changed it to a set menu where you can order three dishes at a time. You will be charged if you leave leftovers.
All You Need For Your Bali Trip
What’s included in LXXY Bali’s all-you-can-eat&drink?
Since there is no buffet anymore, LXXY now has a menu where you can order three plates at a time. There are mains like grilled chicken, mac & cheese, pasta, rice bowls and kebabs. They also have smaller plates, side dishes as well as desserts.
Each person also receives one voucher for a Chef’s Special dish, which is usually a more high-end item.
The food quality was alright, but it is worth noting that dishes sometimes arrive cold or take a long time to come. Unfortunately, the food quality decreased a bit the last few times I visited LXXY.

Here is the current menu for the food included in the price of the all-you-can-eat deal at LXXY Bali.
LXXY Bali rules and wastage policy
LXXY’s buffet used to be open to all customers, and guests could take as much food as they wanted. This led to a lot of wasted food, though, which is why the club implemented a set of rules to save resources and money.
This is understandable from their side, but considering their BBQ buffet made them famous for almost five years, it’s a considerable change to the concept. As a guest, the experience was not as enjoyable as it used to be, but for the price and value, it was still worth it.
Guests are limited to three plates per order, and any food or drinks that are leftover are charged at full price, so keep that in mind. There is also a coupon for one Chef’s Special Item per person.

Is LXXY Bali suitable for vegetarians?
As a vegetarian myself, I was always very satisfied with the options I had when LXXY still had their BQ. There were different types of vegetable BBQ skewers, and I did not feel as though I was eating sides all night.
However, with the implementation of the menu, my options at LXXY Bali became far more limited, and there are only two vegetarian mains (pizza and nasi goreng), which I found a bit limiting.
The full list of vegetarian options at LXXY include:
- Margarita pizza
- Nasi goreng
- Chips/Fries
- Side of bok choi
- Side of mashed potatoes
- Side of grilled romaine
- Side of onion rings
- Side of polenta
- Side of potato wafers
- Desserts
As a vegetarian, you’ll definitely have things to eat, but in my opinion, it’s not the best experience, so keep that in mind before you decide to come to LXXY.
Alcohol selection at LXXY
As is common with free-flow bars, you can only order one drink at a time at LXXY Bali. You need to return your glass before ordering a new drink and will be charged for any leftover drinks that are left unconsumed.
Some of the drinks included are Prost beer, as well as vodka, gin, and whiskey mixers. You can purchase other drinks at the bar (not included in the free-flow).
Of course, the mixers are not the strongest. You will just have to expect that from the beginning. LXXY Bali is probably more suitable for those drinking beer or willing to drink A LOT of spirit-mixers to feel the alcohol.
Sometimes, they have a promotion for free-flow cocktails for ladies between 9:00 PM and 11:00 PM, although this seems to be sporadic.
If you’re not satisfied with the selection of drinks, you can always purchase the premium package (only after 9:00 PM). For an additional IDR 125,000 (≈ 8€) (excluding tax and service), you will get free-flow Long Island Iced Tea, Illusion, red and white wine, red and white sangria, cosmopolitans, Irish creams, and lychee martinis.
It’s up to you to decide whether this is worth your money. If you compare it to European prices, you’ll still be getting a bargain, but for Indonesian prices, this is a bit more expensive.
Plus, you have to consider that the lines at the bar get pretty long after 9:00 PM. You’ll probably spend a decent amount of your time waiting for drinks to get your money’s worth.
Non-alcoholic drinks
LXXY also offers a good selection of non-alcoholic drinks. You can get soft drinks at the bar (one at a time) or use the large dispensers with juice, iced tea, and lemon water.
This means you do not have to wait in line to get water, which is a life-saver.
Can you smoke shisha at LXXY Bali?
They have a good selection of shisha flavors available at the Pool Club. This is not included in the base price, however, and costs extra.
Check out more information about the Pool Club events on the LXXY Instagram page.
LXXY Bali rooftop pool club
The pool club is not very large, so it’s good to come early to get a seat. Tables and seating areas are scattered around the pool and bar.
There is a small DJ stage with an impressive light show. This area later turns into a dance floor, although most people will eventually head downstairs to the nightclub to dance.
The whole pool club is very nicely decorated and feels clean and modern.
The star of the show is, without a doubt, the aquarium-style pool that looks out over the rooftops of Kuta. You can see the 5GX Bali Slingshot, which is very entertaining to watch.
Swimming in the pool is permitted, although few people actually do. You can find changing rooms and showers next to the bathrooms. They also provide towels.
The bathroom facilities are very clean and modern.
LXXY Bali VIP Lounge
They reserve the top floor of the Pool Club for the VIP lounge. This includes comfortable daybeds and a jacuzzi with an amazing view over the Pool Club below and Kuta.
You can book this lounge privately for up to 50 people. However, they usually open it up to the public if there are no bookings for the night.
The music at LXXY Bali
The music at the Pool Club is mostly chill electronic early in the night and turns into house, pop, and remixes of old school later in the night. In typical Bali fashion, it is all over the place.
Things to know before you go to LXXY Bali
- Go early to get a seat. LXXY Bali is very popular amongst larger groups, which means seats go fast. Take a jacket or something you can leave to mark your table so it does not get taken while you’re getting drinks.
- Don’t overload on the food. You will be charged for any leftovers you’re leaving.
- Drink beer. You’ll get the best value for your money if you drink beer instead of spirit-mixers.
- Go up to the VIP Lounge. They rarely sell out the VIP lounge, and even if they do, it’s not difficult to get in when it gets late. This exclusive area has a jacuzzi, day beds, and an even better view. Just go upstairs and enjoy yourself once it’s a bit later in the night. Usually, the security guards even encourage this in order to spread people out.
- Nightclub entry is included. When you enter LXXY Bali they might try to sell you a package that includes the entry fee into the nightclub for an extra price. Don’t fall for this. You can enter LXXY nightclub for free if you purchase the free-flow drinks and food at the Pool Club.
- Lines get long. As it gets later the line at the bar will get long. Just expect to wait for a few minutes to get your drinks and get a table close by if you’re planning on drinking a lot.
Is LXXY Bali worth it?
The price is unbeatable, it’s as simple as that. Even if you just have a few drinks and something to eat you’ll have gotten your money’s worth.
If you’re looking for somewhere to spend an entire night on a budget this is the place to go. The venue and crowd do not feel like this is a cheap option to spend a night out. Quite the opposite actually. The pool club is gorgeous and I was very happy with the quality of food (always consider how much you’re paying).
After 11:00 PM you can choose if you want to move on or stay in the nightclub downstairs. Unfortunately, it tends to be still quite empty during this time of night but you can stay in the Pool Club until it fills up a bit.
If cheap drinks, decent food, and a relaxed, fun vibe are what you’re looking for then give LXXY a try.
All that being said, LXXY used to have even better value for money and if you’ve come here pre-2023, you might be a bit disappointed as the buffet does not exist any more. We still recommend LXXY, but are hoping that the prices won’t be increased even further as the value won’t be as good as it used to be.
