Phuket Beach Clubs: Passes, Daybeds and Minimum Spend

A Phuket beach-club booking needs more detail than a single price. Compare the number of guests, the seating entitlement, the amount available to spend on food and drinks, and the applicable date. A pass and a reserved bed can provide different things even at the same venue.[1][2]

Read the price and the credit separately

Term What to establish before paying
Admission or day pass Whether it includes a reserved seat, a time-limited restaurant booking, or access without guaranteed seating.
Bed, cabana or sofa Maximum capacity and minimum number of paying guests.
Food and drink credit The amount, eligible purchases, expiry and treatment of unused credit.
Minimum spend Whether the quoted amount is fully redeemable and whether extra charges sit outside it.
Deposit Whether it is part-payment, a separate refundable security deposit, or subject to cancellation deductions.

Do not add food and drink credit to a package price a second time. Only add spending beyond the included allowance and any confirmed excluded charges.

Examples from the existing listings

YONA Beach Club lists a THB 4,000 Day Pass for one guest with THB 2,000 food and drink credit. That pass does not guarantee reserved seating. Its private seating products have separate terms.[1]

Carpe Diem Beach Club lists pool beds at THB 2,000 per guest with THB 1,000 credit through 31 October 2026, with a minimum payment for two guests. Its sofa option has a different price and credit structure.[2]

These examples are published terms reviewed on 27 September 2026. They are not quotes for a future date or evidence that space is available.

Worked example: two people sharing a pool bed

At Carpe Diem's published rate through 31 October 2026, two guests pay THB 2,000 each and receive THB 1,000 credit each. If each orders THB 1,300 of eligible food and drinks, each exceeds that allowance by THB 300. The total is THB 4,600 before any other applicable charges. This calculated example assumes no transfer of credit between guests. It is not a customer bill. Different rates apply from 1 November 2026.[2]

Check the exact product and date

Save the terms shown for your chosen seat and date. Check any arrival deadline, cancellation conditions, weather provisions and minimum age before paying. For pools, ask whether towels and lockers are included and whether any deposit is required. Do not assume a beach-club entry ticket gives access to every pool or seating area.

Catch Beach Club, Café del Mar Phuket and KUDO Beach Club have their own venue pages in this wiki. Use each venue's booking terms for the chosen date rather than transferring another club's pricing model.

Confirm the departure point for a floating venue

YONA's FAQ and location page give different November 2026 changeover dates between Royal Phuket Marina and Patong Pier. Confirm the pier shown on your booking and with the operator before arranging transport. The office address should not be used as a permanent boarding point.[1][3]
