14 Best Day Clubs in Bali (2026): Pool Clubs in Ubud, Canggu and Uluwatu

|12 min readByLilian

A day club in Bali is a pool you can use for the day: loungers or daybeds, a bar and a kitchen, and usually a view of a river valley, rice fields or the ocean. Unlike the big beach clubs, most of the places below sit inland or on the cliffs rather than on the sand, and many are quieter, smaller and cheaper. Entry ranges from free to a day pass with food and drink credit, and the FAQ below compares fees and age rules.

Day clubs by area

  • Ubud and the jungle to the north: Wanna Jungle Pool & Bar, Jinengku Pool & Bar, CP Lounge, Jungle Fish Pool Bar, Folk Pool & Gardens and the Bambu Indah day pass.
  • Canggu: Alternative Beach and Le Bajo.
  • Uluwatu: oneeighty°, Mana Uluwatu, Banana Lounge and El Kabron.
  • Sanur and the east coast: Byrd House Beach Club and Moonstone Beach Lounge.

Bali day clubs: FAQ

What is the difference between a day club and a beach club?

A beach club sits on the sand, usually with a DJ and a sunset crowd. A day club is built around a pool, often inland in a river valley or among rice fields, or on a cliff, and is usually calmer. For the big names on the sand, see the best beach clubs in Bali, and for after dark, the best nightclubs in Bali.

Which Bali day clubs are good for families?

Folk Pool & Gardens in central Ubud, Le Bajo in Canggu and Moonstone Beach Lounge in Sukawati welcome children, Jungle Fish Pool Bar allows children with supervision, and oneeighty° has a child rate for ages 4 to 11. Wanna Jungle Pool & Bar does not admit under-15s, Jinengku Pool & Bar does not admit under-12s, Alternative Beach is 17+, CP Lounge is adults only and the pool at El Kabron is 18+. For family stays, see the best family-friendly hotels in Bali.

How much does a day club in Bali cost?

It varies widely. CP Lounge and Folk Pool & Gardens are free to enter, and Moonstone Beach Lounge is free on weekdays. Jungle Fish Pool Bar works on a minimum spend from IDR 250,000 per person, while oneeighty° (IDR 700,000) and the Bambu Indah day pass (from IDR 700,000 plus tax and service) include food and drink credit. Daybeds at the clifftop clubs cost more: El Kabron's start at IDR 1,800,000 plus tax and service.

Can you combine a day club with sightseeing?

Yes. Jungle Fish Pool Bar and Jinengku Pool & Bar are both north of Ubud, a short drive from the rice terraces (a Tegallalang and Monkey Forest tour covers the main sights). In Uluwatu, the clifftop clubs are a short drive from the temple and its sunset Kecak dance (see this Uluwatu sunset and Kecak tour). For dinner afterward, see the best restaurants in Uluwatu or the best cocktail bars in Ubud.

Where should I stay to be near the best day clubs?

Ubud puts you closest to the jungle pools, and Uluwatu to the clifftop clubs. Compare stays in Ubud and Uluwatu.
