As you walk into Potato Head, you immediately notice the super slick but quirky architecture by Andra Matin. The curved facade, designed to mimic that of the Colosseum, towers above the venue and is made from an eclectic mix of beautiful old window shutters, put together to create a patchwork of colours in the sky.
The artful surroundings and funky tunes work together to create an atmosphere that will have you settling in for the long haul. Day beds and lounges line the infinity pool that looks over the ocean, there you can place your order with the floor staff for something to nibble on while you sample the extensive drinks menu.
