Want to soak in a pool, sunbathe, and snap photos on a daybed in Bali without breaking the bank on a day pass?

Actually, Bali has plenty of budget-friendly Day Clubs, Pool Clubs, and poolside restaurants where you don’t have to spend over IDR 1,000,000. Some are even free to enter with no minimum spend—just order a meal or drink and use the pool.

At others, you can use sunbeds, daybeds, or pool towels once you hit a certain spending threshold.

This setup is perfect for independent travelers: no hefty entry fees just to lounge by the pool for a few hours, and you can combine dining, swimming, photos, and chilling all in one go.

Here’s a roundup of notable affordable Day Clubs across Bali, from Uluwatu and Melasti to Canggu, Seminyak, and Ubud.

Mrs Sippy｜Seminyak

If you’re after a more atmospheric pool club in Seminyak, Mrs Sippy is worth considering, but it’s not a free-entry Day Club. General admission requires a ticket, recently around IDR 100,000–150,000 per person, and the entry fee may not be redeemable for food and drinks. For a daybed, there’s typically a higher minimum spend.

Therefore, Mrs Sippy is better suited for travelers who want to enjoy a combination of pool, music, dining, and Beach Club atmosphere all at once, rather than those simply looking for a cheap place to swim. If you’re on a budget, it’s advisable to choose general admission with pool access, which makes it easier to control spending compared to booking a high-consumption Day Bed.

Best for: Couples, friends, small groups, and travelers looking to soak up the vibrant Beach Club vibe in Seminyak.

Ocean Grand Beach Bali｜Seminyak

If you’re staying in Seminyak and don’t want to venture all the way to Canggu or Uluwatu, keep an eye on Ocean Grand Beach Bali, located right in Seminyak.

It operates more like a Day Club + Restaurant concept, focusing on beachside dining, drinks, and poolside relaxation.

The venue is officially positioned as a Day Club, serving from breakfast and lunch through the evening, with dining available by the pool as well.

It’s best to plan your visit as:

Lunch → Pool relaxation → Afternoon drinks → Evening ocean views

If you’re already staying in Seminyak, you won’t need to arrange special transportation just to visit a Beach Club—instead, you can treat it as a half-day leisure activity near your accommodation.

Current public information does not clearly list the latest Daybed minimum spend or towel usage rules, so it’s best to confirm the day’s seating and pool access conditions before booking.

Best for: Travelers staying in Seminyak, those who want to eat and lounge by the pool, and sunset seekers.

Cocoon Seminyak | Seminyak

Cocoon Seminyak is located right on Double Six Beach in Seminyak, combining a pool, bar, dining, and event space. It’s known for its laid-back poolside vibe, beachfront location, and versatile experience that transitions from daytime relaxation to evening socializing.

Based on the information found so far:

• Free entry
• Pool access is free
• No minimum spend seating / Day Bed options
• Poolside Single Day Beds and Double Day Beds are both marked No minimum spend
• There are also regular seating areas like a restaurant, garden, and sports bar.
• Current opening hours are approximately 11:00–23:00.
• As of recent information from September 2026, it still indicates FREE POOL ACCESS / NO MINIMUM SPEND.

Best for: Couples, friends, and general travelers who want to casually enjoy a half-day at the pool, eat, and drink in Seminyak without being tied down by expensive Day Passes or minimum spend requirements.

Alternative Beach｜Canggu

If you’re looking for a spot in Canggu where you can enjoy the pool without spending a fortune, Alternative Beach is worth adding to your list. It’s not your typical beach club but centers around a large pool, pool bar, day beds, and bean bags, with a minimum spend of IDR 100,000 per person that can be used for food, drinks, day beds, or pool towels—essentially turning that basic cost into an afternoon of pool time.

It’s best suited for couples, friends, and younger travelers, especially those who want to swim, sip drinks, and soak up the sun without paying hefty Day Pass fees that can run into hundreds of thousands or even millions of rupiah. However, note that Alternative Beach is not a seaside beach club and has an age restriction of 17 and above, making it unsuitable for families with kids.

COMO Beach Club｜Canggu

If you’re staying in Canggu and looking for a more relaxed, non-party pool spot, check out COMO Beach Club.

Located at COMO Uma Canggu, it has a resort-style vibe with ocean views, a pool, daybeds, and full poolside service.

Currently, the official policy states that non-guests using a daybed by the pool must meet a minimum spend of IDR 500,000.

This fee isn’t just an entry charge—it’s fully redeemable for food and drinks, and includes:

• Pool access
• Daybed
• Towels

Each daybed can accommodate up to 3 people.

So if 2–3 people go together and split the cost, it’s essentially using your usual dining and drinks budget to enjoy a daybed.

Just note that non-guests are advised to book daybeds in advance, as seating is limited.

Best for: Couples, families, those seeking a quieter pool experience, and guests staying in Canggu

Le Bajo｜Canggu Pererenan

Le Bajo is located in Pererenan and offers a more family-friendly ‘restaurant + pool’ concept.

Unlike large beach clubs, it doesn’t emphasize a party vibe, making it ideal for those who want a place to eat, have a drink, and slowly enjoy the pool.

Current information shows free entry, with some seating areas having no minimum spend during certain times; daybeds have varying minimum spends depending on time and location.

So if you don’t need the front-row daybed, you can opt for regular seating and put your budget toward food and drinks.

If you want a specific daybed, it’s best to check the minimum spend for that day in advance.

Best for: Guests staying in Pererenan or Canggu, families with kids, and those looking to avoid large beach clubs

Folk Pool & Gardens｜Ubud

In Ubud, you don’t have to head to the beach to enjoy a day club.

Folk Pool & Gardens, located near Monkey Forest, is a convenient poolside hangout right in the heart of Ubud.

The biggest draw is the very low pool entry fee.

Current official prices:

• Pool entry: IDR 50,000 per person
• Sun lounger: IDR 150,000 per person for 4 hours
• Daybed/Teepee: IDR 350,000 per bed for up to 4 people for 4 hours

Pool entry includes a towel and a welcome drink.

If you’d like to use a sun lounger or daybed, you can opt for a separate seating package.

For those staying in central Ubud, this setup is super convenient: you don’t need to spend a whole day or a lot of money—just a few hours will do.

Best for: Travelers in central Ubud, families, couples, budget-conscious travelers

TIS Café｜Ubud Tegallalang

TIS Café offers another uniquely Balinese experience.

It’s more of a scenic restaurant with a pool than a traditional beach club.

Its biggest draw is the surrounding rice paddies and natural landscape, making it a perfect stop on a Tegallalang day trip.

Current info shows entry is free, but using the pool and daybed requires a minimum spend of about IDR 300,000 per person.

So you can plan your itinerary like this:

See the Rice Terraces → Eat Lunch → Swim in the Pool → Take Photos

This style of play is better suited for travelers already heading to Tegallalang, rather than making a special trip just for a Beach Club.

Best for: Tegallalang, northern Ubud itineraries, travelers who love natural scenery

Jungle Fish Pool Bar｜Ubud

If you’re looking for a ‘forest version of a Day Club,’ Jungle Fish Pool Bar is quite unique.

There’s no beach here—instead, the pool is set amidst Ubud’s forest and valley landscape.

The biggest highlight is the sweeping view of the lush green valley from the pool.

According to current official info, non-guests can enter for free, but different seating areas have different minimum food and drink spends.

Dining Table, Sofa, and Sun Lounger are around IDR 350,000/person, while Daybed is a separate seating option.

Towels need to be rented separately, currently around IDR 35,000 per towel.

So it’s not entirely free of a minimum spend, but if you’re already planning to have lunch or afternoon tea, factoring in the food and drink costs still makes it a worthwhile pool option.

Best for: Couples, those wanting to capture forest pool photos, Ubud travelers

Good Day Resto & Pool Bar｜Ubud Sayan

If you’re looking for a place with free entry, free swimming, and a pool you can enjoy while eating, Good Day Resto & Pool Bar is definitely worth adding to your list.

Located in the Sayan area of Ubud, it’s not in the bustling city center but surrounded by rice paddies and greenery, creating a very relaxed atmosphere. This spot combines a restaurant, Pool Bar, Spa, and Coworking Space, with the biggest draw being free entry and free pool access.

There are cushioned seats by the pool, a Pool Bar Lounge, and regular restaurant seating; no separate Day Pass is needed for the pool itself.

Older information even explicitly stated there was no minimum spend, and the latest details still confirm that ‘Entry and swimming are free.’ However, note that minimum spend for specific seats, towel fees, and reservation conditions are not publicly listed. If you want a particular spot by the pool, it’s best to check with the venue in advance.

Another great perk for families: there’s a Kids Playground on-site, and the pool has different depth zones. Of course, children still need parental supervision when using the pool.

If you’re just looking for a place to grab lunch, enjoy a coffee, and take a dip in the water, Good Day’s setup is actually simpler than many beach clubs that require booking an expensive daybed.

Recent guest reviews also mention that a meal costs around IDR 100,000–125,000 per person, with access to the pool—though this is based on actual visitor spending, not a fixed set meal or minimum spend policy from the venue.

Best for: Budget-conscious travelers, families, guests staying in Ubud, and anyone looking for a free pool to enjoy.

Highlights: Free entry + free swimming + rice field views + pool bar + kids’ play area.

Banana Lounge｜Bingin

If you’re looking for a place where you can enjoy the pool without a minimum spend, Banana Lounge fits the bill perfectly.

Located in Bingin, this isn’t a massive luxury beach club but a more laid-back lounge, restaurant, and pool combo.

According to current official info, entry is free with no minimum spend, the pool is open to guests, and complimentary towels, showers, and changing rooms are provided.

In other words, you don’t need to shell out for a day pass upfront—just order a meal or a drink, and you’re free to jump in the pool whenever you like.

For travelers who just want to find a spot in Uluwatu to rest for a few hours, this setup is really much more convenient.

Best for: Budget-conscious travelers, couples, those who want to take photos and lounge by the pool without paying for a Day Pass

Delpi Cafe｜Uluwatu

Delpi Cafe is located in the Suluban area of Uluwatu, and its highlight is that you can enjoy the sea view while using the pool.

It feels more like a seaside café than a large beach club, so the overall cost is also relatively relaxed.

According to the information I’ve found, the pool access fee is around IDR 100,000.

If you happen to plan a day trip to Uluwatu, hitting the beach or sights in the morning and then finding a place to eat and dip in the water in the afternoon, Delpi Cafe is a solid option to consider.

It’s worth noting that there isn’t enough reliable, up-to-date information to confirm whether towels are included, so it’s best not to treat ‘free towels’ as one of its selling points.

Suitable for: Half-day trips to Uluwatu, travelers who want ocean views and pool time

---

Magus Warung｜Melasti Beach

Magus Warung is located near the famous Melasti Beach, offering a more laid-back alternative.

It’s free to enter, with no minimum spend at some seats—so if you just want to eat, sip a drink, and enjoy the sea, there’s no need to pay a steep entrance fee upfront.

However, keep in mind that not all sunbeds by the pool are free.

According to current info, the minimum spend for some poolside sunbeds is around IDR 500,000–750,000.

So if you’re just looking for a place to eat, opt for regular seating; if you plan to lounge on a poolside sunbed all afternoon, check the day’s minimum spend first.

This spot is best seen as a ‘dine and unwind’ option near Melasti Beach, rather than a purely free pool experience.

Best for: A day trip to Melasti Beach, or travelers looking for a seaside restaurant to relax at.

Timbis Beach Club｜Pandawa

Although Timbis Beach Club has ‘Beach Club’ in its name, its pricing model differs from some of the large, high-end beach clubs.

The official basic plan is currently around IDR 200,000 per person, with different seating options having different minimum spending requirements.

For example:

• Sky Area: IDR 200,000 per person
• Anjungan: IDR 200,000 per person
• Beanbag: IDR 350,000 per person
• Single Bed: IDR 400,000 per person
• Sun Lounger: IDR 550,000 per person
• Daybed: IDR 1,500,000 (up to 4 people)

Some packages include a Beach Towel.

If you don’t go for the front-row Sun Lounger and choose a more basic area, the cost can be kept within a relatively reasonable range.

So if you’re planning a trip around Pandawa Beach, you can consider Timbis as a leisure option with sea views and a pool.

Best for: Travelers visiting the Pandawa and Melasti area, looking for sea views and a pool.

When choosing a Day Club, don’t just look at “Free Entry”

“Free entry” doesn’t mean the sun lounger is free; “minimum spend” doesn’t always mean an extra charge either—in some places, the minimum spend can be fully used for food and drinks.

What you really need to compare is:

How much is the minimum spend? Can it be used for food and drinks? Is the pool included? Is the Daybed included? Are towels provided?

Once you clarify these conditions, it becomes much easier to find a Day Club in Bali that truly suits you.

Lastly, a reminder: prices, seating rules, and minimum spending at Bali’s Day Clubs may vary due to peak seasons, weekends, events, or venue policies. It’s recommended to double-check the latest prices and booking conditions before you go, especially regarding Daybed and pool usage rules.
