5 new beach clubs in Phuket everyone is talking about
Over the past few years, Phuket’s “day-to-night” club culture has grown significantly — combining daytime poolside relaxation, curated dining concepts, and evening DJ sets. In 2025, the island has felt especially energized, with new projects and bold relaunches making waves. We’ve rounded up the beach clubs that opened in Phuket this year and have truly shaken up the local scene.
1. Rava Beach Club
(Bang Tao)
Working hours: Mon - Sun: 10:00 - 00:00
A new hotspot in Bang Tao, created as part of the Banyan Tree Group. Rava is more than just a beach club — it’s an entire leisure philosophy where the sea, music, gastronomy, and modern comfort come together.
Rava is the longest beach club in Thailand, with a beachfront stretching 150 meters along the shoreline. Covering around 3,500 square meters, the entire space is designed as an all-day club, welcoming guests from morning until late at night.
Morning walks along the sand flow into laid-back poolside days, followed by atmospheric evenings with DJ sets. The venue also regularly hosts sunset gatherings, art sessions, wellness programs, and gastronomic festivals, creating a like-minded community.
The club is divided into several zones:
- Young & Fun — the vibrant heart of Rava. Three infinity pools, comfortable cabanas for relaxation, and an open-air dance floor create a light, festive atmosphere. This is the space for socializing, parties, and meeting friends.
- Master Grill — the gastronomic core of the club. An open kitchen and grill serving premium meats, fresh seafood, and fire-cooked dishes.
- Prestige Lounge — a private area for Banyan Group residents and Sanctuary Club members.
The kitchen at Rava Beach Club is led by chef Joshua Gray, a professional with over 15 years of experience in top restaurants across Australia. At Rava, he blends international techniques with local ingredients — and does so brilliantly.
At the Master Grill restaurant, guests are treated to a carefully curated selection of dishes — from premium meats to seafood delicacies and modern interpretations of Thai classics. Every dish reflects Rava’s philosophy: natural flavors, fire, balance, and, of course, pleasure.
2. Barra Cuda
(Patong)
Working hours: Mon - Tue: 09:00 - 01:00; Wed 18:30 - 03:00; Thu - Sun: 09:00 - 01:00
Barra Cuda has made a bold statement as Thailand’s “first-ever” dancefloor pool — here, the dance floor is located прямо inside the swimming pool! Overall, this place is made for those who truly love to have fun. Beyond that, everything follows the classic formula: a relaxed beach club by day and a lively waterside party by night. Barra Cuda also frequently hosts themed parties, gastronomic events, and other special happenings.
For guests who prefer a more laid-back pace, the La Riviera restaurant operates on-site — an elegant space with a menu inspired by the Mediterranean and the tropics. The offerings include fresh seafood, homemade pasta, crispy pizza, and other dishes with a strong focus on seasonal ingredients. Vegan and gluten-free options are also available, ensuring everyone can find something to enjoy.
When the sun dips below the horizon, Barra Cuda Beach Club shifts its mood and transforms into a nightlife hotspot. The venue comes alive with show performances by dancers, sets from resident DJs, fire shows, and themed parties — ranging from deep house to passionate Latin vibes.

4. Fira Beach Club
(Kata)
Working hours: Mon - Sun: 12:00 - 22:00
Fira is set on an elevated location with panoramic views of the Andaman Sea and brings together three leisure formats in one space: a beach club, a fine-dining restaurant, and a sky bar.
The Fira grounds are divided into several zones, each offering its own style of relaxation:
- Main Pool Zone — the heart of the club, featuring sweeping sea views, plush sun loungers, and an infinity pool where you’ll want to spend the entire day.
- KIPO Restaurant — the gastronomic soul of Fira. The menu is inspired by Mediterranean and Pan-Asian cuisines, with a focus on fresh seafood, grilled dishes, and refined small plates.
- DOXA Sky Bar — the perfect spot to watch the sunset. Signature cocktails are served here, while evenings come alive with DJ sets and themed parties.
The highlight of Fira is its harmonious blend of nature and style. The club’s architecture is seamlessly integrated into the landscape: natural wood, stone, soft lighting, and panoramic windows create a sense of lightness and connection with the sea.
The music program is updated weekly: the club invites both local and international artists and, during high season, hosts parties at the very highest level.
5. YUUHI Beach Club & Karaoke

Working hours: Mon - Sun: 10:00 - 03:00
Website
A beach club + karaoke = the perfect party combo. That said, YUUHI is just as enjoyable during the day: soft bean bags right on the sand, sun loungers by the water’s edge, relaxing music, and a menu that blends Thai flavors with European classics — fresh seafood, salads, appetizers, and light dishes ideal for soaking up the sun. Add signature cocktails or refreshing drinks, and your perfect beach day is complete.
As evening falls, YUUHI transforms. The space fills with light, DJ-driven rhythms, and the aroma of shisha. The bar offers over 50 (!) original cocktails, each one capable of starting a new story. The vibe is elevated by fire shows, themed parties, and the club’s signature highlight — karaoke: professional sound, an extensive song library, and a stage where everyone can feel like a star.
The club is designed so that everyone can find their own space: the first floor features an energetic zone with dancing, DJs, and a karaoke stage, while the second floor offers a cozy lounge with five private tables for those who prefer a more intimate atmosphere.
What’s changing in Phuket’s beach culture in 2025
- Hybrid day-to-night formats. New projects are focused on keeping guests in one place from day through night: pool → gastronomy → sunset → DJ sets. This saves time and increases average spend.
- Gastronomy as a show. Open kitchens, grill theaters, and chef’s tables are no longer a bonus but a core part of the concept.
- Exclusive zones. Private lounges for residents and club members have become a trend: separate pools, daybeds, and closed-door dinners.
- Visual appeal and content. Instagram-ready design is a key part of planning: photogenic pools and well-lit zones often make the difference.
Tips before your visit
- Advance reservations are required at all beach clubs, especially during high season.
- If you want both daytime relaxation and evening energy, choose clubs with clear zoning.
- Families should look for daytime programs and kids’ activities; partygoers should focus on lineups and night sets.
- Following the dress code is recommended: smart casual or beach-chic.
2025 has made Phuket’s beach map richer and more diverse, with the arrival of large-scale conceptual projects. Whether you want to relax by the pool, enjoy great food between swims, or dance until morning, this season Phuket offers plenty of room to indulge.
