Restaurants, night markets, and department stores are also available for foodies and shopping aficionados.
Mari Beach Club
Canggu
Escape the usual Bali beach scene and enter Mari Beach Club, a sanctuary where barefoot elegance reigns. Forget the thumping music and neon lights – here, nature sets the tone. Towering above you, a majestic bamboo dome, inspired by Bali’s sacred mountains, welcomes you. As you step further, the landscape itself seems to become the architecture, with buildings mimicking the ocean’s gentle curves and local materials like bamboo and stone whispering tales of the island’s soul. Dive into the infinity pool, its edge blurring the line between you and the endless horizon, or sip a handcrafted cocktail beneath a parasol, the rhythmic crash of waves your soundtrack. Mari Beach Club isn’t just a place to relax, it’s an invitation to reconnect with Bali’s essence.
Ku De Ta
Seminyak
Ku De Ta is older and chic, a haven for those looking for a classy place to kick back. Set on the southern coast of Bali, facing the Indian Ocean alongside Seminyak’s stretch of golden sand, it boasts a breathtaking sunset 365 days a year. Lounge on the cosy daybeds, chill out to some cool tunes, sip exotic cocktails, and enjoy a romantic dinner as the sun sets into the ocean.
Potato Head Beach Club
Petitenget, Seminyak
Potato Head Beach Club is located in Seminyak. It is hard to miss because of its unique ‘Colosseum’ – a towering elliptical façade of mismatched 18th century teak window shutters collected from across the Indonesian archipelago. Potato Head Beach Club is ideal for families, sun-worshippers, diners and party people. Take a dip in the infinity pool and watch a stunning sunset.
Sundays Beach Club
Ungasan, The Bukit
When Finn’s moved to Canggu, Sundays Beach Club swooped their old spot. Located adjacent to Karma Beach Club, the descent to the powdery white sand requires a worth-it ride in a cable car and some steps. Kick back and enjoy life at this chic day retreat that is nestled on a white sandy crescent beach on Bali’s Bukit peninsular. Pull up a beanbag or sun lounger and enjoy a day of sea kayaking, snorkelling or stand up paddle boarding wile listen to cool island beats and grazing from a perfect beachside menu.

El Kabron Bali
Uluwatu, The Bukit
Spectacular views, sexy cocktails and outstanding Spanish cuisine are just a few reasons why we love El Kabron. It’s perched high above the Indian Ocean, offering sweeping views of the golden sands and surf breaks below.

Luna Beach Club
Tabanan
The latest kid on the block, Luna Beach Club, opened in March 2024, is fast making waves in the Bali beach club scene. The location in Tabanan is a big draw, especially for guests staying in villas around the Tabanan, Tanah Lot or Upper Canggu regions. Luna is not a beach club, it is a city in itself. Multiple zones offer different experiences. The beer garden has sunset views and live music while a DJ spins beats under a gigantic metallic sculpture of Luna in the beach club area where you can book a daybed. Utopia is the party zone and there’s private dining available as well.
What better way to enjoy your vacation than hanging out with your friends and family on the beach? Sip a tropical cocktail at one of these beach clubs before you retreat to the privacy of your own luxury villa. C’est la vie.
