Beautifully tucked along the shores of Batu Belig Beach, Mari Beach Club Bali is a tropical oasis that blends natural beauty, eco-friendly architecture, and Bali’s laid-back lifestyle.
With its iconic bamboo design and stunning ocean views, Mari offers an elegant yet grounded place to unwind. The result is a beach club that suits couples, groups of friends, and anyone who wants quality food and cocktails with an ocean view without the overwhelming scale of some of its neighbours.
What Is Mari Beach Club Bali?
Mari Beach Club offers a unique ‘Little Bali’ experience, drawing inspiration from local culture and the organic beauty of its surroundings. The beach club invites guests to unwind, indulge in exquisite food and drink, and marvel as the sun traverses the horizon, amidst earthy tones and iconic landscapes.
The club features an infinity pool, sun deck, sunken bar, and various cabanas and daybeds. Guests can indulge in Mediterranean cuisine, with specialties like smoked octopus and nasi goreng. The venue provides a captivating aesthetic, making it a popular spot for sunset views and live music.
Many reviewers highlight the beautiful design and decor, noting the use of natural bamboo architecture which creates a grand entrance and blends seamlessly with the beachfront setting.
The bamboo construction isn’t just decorative it’s structural, running through the main entrance archway, the bar area, and across the roof lines throughout the venue, giving the whole space a warm, organic texture that’s rare in Bali’s beach club scene.
One honest note worth flagging: Mari is not one of the biggest beach club venues in Bali there is a single main pool area with one shallow pool suitable for families and an infinity pool with an oceanfront view. If you’re expecting the scale of Bali’s mega-clubs, Mari operates at a more intimate level. For most guests, that’s precisely the point.
Location & How to Get There
Mari Beach Club is located at Jl. Batu Belig No.66, Kerobokan Kelod, North Kuta, Badung Regency, Bali.
This puts it on the stretch of coastline that sits between Seminyak to the south and Berawa/Canggu to the north an area that’s grown significantly in popularity and now hosts some of Bali’s most talked-about dining and beach destinations.
From Ngurah Rai International Airport, the drive is approximately 30 minutes covering around 13 kilometers, depending on traffic.
Getting to the club is straightforward if you’re coming by private car or ride-hailing services, though your driver may have to pull up some distance from the main gate, leaving you to walk a short stretch in the sun.
There is also free parking available next to the beach club for those arriving by scooter or private vehicle. From most Seminyak accommodations, Mari is under 10 minutes by car genuinely one of the more accessible beach clubs in the Seminyak-Canggu corridor.
One thing worth knowing about the beach itself: Batu Belig Beach is a pleasant stretch of sand but not the best for swimming, as this side of the island sees some fairly powerful currents that can be challenging if you’re not an experienced swimmer.
It’s however a great place for experienced surfers. Come for the pool, the sunset, and the food the ocean view is stunning but the in-club pool is where most guests spend their water time.
Seating Areas & Pricing
There is no entrance fee to Mari. However, it applies a minimum amount of spending for food and beverage. The minimum purchase depends on the seating area you choose.
This is a standard setup for Bali’s beach clubs you’re essentially paying for your spot through your tab, which makes it flexible for guests who plan to eat and drink anyway.
The seating options are genuinely varied, with different areas offering different atmospheres and price points. The Main Bar a bamboo-structured semi-outdoor bar with rattan and wooden furniture perfect for couples requires a minimum spend of IDR 1,000,000 for two people.
The Hill Staircase, designed to mimic traditional Balinese field terraces and facing the beach, accommodates up to 4 people with a minimum spend of IDR 1,000,000.
For smaller groups or solo visitors, the Sole Lower Floor ground-level area offers ocean views with a minimum spend of IDR 250,000 the most accessible entry point.
At the premium end, three exclusive VIP Bungalows are designed for intimate atmosphere under the shade, with plush daybeds right in the heart of the iconic plunge pool.
The Fire Pit is available for groups wanting a BBQ experience note that you must order all food from the club’s menu for this area. For most visitors, the sweet spot is either the beach chairs with a simple minimum spend or the Main Bar Couch for a more social afternoon.
Food, Drinks & Atmosphere
Guests can indulge in Mediterranean cuisine, with specialties like smoked octopus and nasi goreng. The menu leans toward sharing plates and light bites alongside more substantial mains think grilled seafood, fresh salads, crispy small plates, and a rotating selection of daily specials.
Prices sit in the IDR 150,000 to IDR 400,000 range for most food items. The Seafood Tower featuring one lobster, one crab, six oysters, six shrimps, and clams, served with aioli, fries, and sauces is one of the more indulgent menu options and a popular choice for groups.
The cocktail list is a strong point. Signature drinks using Indonesian spirits and tropical ingredients are priced reasonably by beach club standards, and the swim-up bar at the infinity pool makes ordering mid-swim genuinely effortless.
By day, the calm atmosphere and sea breeze make for relaxed lounging. As the sun begins to set, Mari transforms into a vibrant space with chill music, quality cuisine, and refreshing drinks. Live music sessions on weekends in particular draw a solid crowd from around 5:00 PM onward.
What Makes It Special
Mari Beach Club is celebrated for its open-air setting with sweeping ocean vistas and stunning sunsets. Its organic architecture, crafted from abundant natural materials, blends Balinese elegance with a spirit of sustainability.
That combination meaningful design, genuine use of natural materials, and an actual beach and pool rather than just a bar with a view is what keeps it in a different category from many of Bali’s flash-over-substance venues.
The bamboo entrance archway is frequently cited as one of the most photographed architectural details on Bali’s beach club strip, and the overall Instagram appeal of the space is undeniably high.
But beyond the aesthetics, the service quality and food consistency keep guests returning. For a beach club that opened in 2022, the operational maturity is notable. Weekday visits are genuinely quiet if you time it right on a Tuesday or Wednesday afternoon, you can have a daybed and a view that feels entirely private.
