Sanur has six beach clubs in Sanur worth knowing about, and they play a different game to the rest of Bali. This is the island's calm, family-friendly east coast, so the scene is mellow day clubs, resort day passes and sunset beach bars rather than the DJ-driven parties of Seminyak or Canggu.
The water here is reef-protected and easy to swim, and a flat beachfront promenade runs the length of the strip. Prices split hard. The budget end starts around a low IDR 150k minimum spend for a lounger, while the top end is a resort day pass at Andaz Bali for roughly $43 a head. Peak season runs June to September and around New Year.
Sanur faces east, so sunrise is a genuine draw here. The clubs sit along one continuous beachfront, from Sindhu Beach in the north down through Semawang in the south. For the wider picture, see our guide to beach clubs in Indonesia, or read up on the busier scenes at Seminyak and Canggu.

What are the best beach clubs in Sanur?
For a proper all-day beach club, start with Byrd House Beach Club, the town's most popular spot, with a pool, a kids club and no cover charge. If you want the five-star version, Andaz Bali runs a day pass onto its 40m ocean-facing infinity pool.
On a budget, Memories Sanur Club and Prama Sanur Beach both get you a lounger for a low minimum spend. For sunset drinks on the sand, Bali Beach Bar & Grill and Pier Eight are the pick.
Which Sanur beach clubs have day passes?
Two venues sell a proper day pass. Andaz Bali charges around IDR 700k++ per adult (about $43) for its Fisherman's Club pass, which includes an IDR 350k food and drink credit and access to three pools from 10am to 6pm. Prama Sanur Beach opens its pool to outside guests on a low IDR 150k++ minimum spend, with kids under 12 free.
Most other spots skip the pass and just ask you to eat or drink. At Byrd House and Memories, ordering food and drinks covers your spot on the loungers.
Byrd House Beach Club
Byrd House Beach Club is the most popular beach club in Sanur, and it's the easiest to recommend for families. It sits beside Segara Village Hotel on Jl. Segara Ayu, with a tropical beach-house feel and a focus on food and play over DJs.
There's a splash pool with shaded loungers and poolside service, plus a kids' pool, a kids club and a tennis court. You can hire SUPs and other non-motorised watersports gear too. The Sunday BBQ buffet is the main draw.
Best of all, there's no entrance fee or minimum spend. Most of the facilities are free if you're eating and drinking, so it's an easy, low-key day out for couples and families alike.

Andaz Bali (Fisherman's Club)
Andaz Bali is the most upscale beachfront option in Sanur, run as a day pass at the five-star Andaz resort. The experience is anchored on its beachfront restaurant, Fisherman's Club.
The pass runs 10am to 6pm and covers the 40m ocean-facing infinity pool, a kids' pool and a resort pool, plus sun loungers and umbrellas. Your food and drink credit is spent at Fisherman's Club, a well-liked sundowner and seafood spot with live music.
It costs around IDR 700k++ per adult, about $43, with an IDR 350k F&B credit built in. Children 6 to 12 are IDR 350k++ and under-sixes go free. Book ahead in peak season.
Prama Sanur Beach Bali
Prama Sanur Beach is a family-friendly beachfront resort that opens its pool to outside guests through the low-cost Splish Splash day pass. It's a calm, budget-friendly alternative to the pricier resort clubs.
The sand-side Bamboo Beach Bar & Lounge is the sunset spot, right on the beach with a direct view of the water and live music in the evenings. The pool sits just behind it.
The day pass reportedly runs on an IDR 150k++ minimum spend per adult, with kids under 12 free. That makes it one of the cheapest ways to get a resort pool plus the beach in Sanur.
Memories Sanur Club
Memories Sanur Club is a well-priced beach club right on Sindhu Beach, popular for its low minimum spends and safe swimming water. It draws a mixed local and tourist crowd, and the mood is easygoing.
There's a swimming pool plus seating out on the sand, with a handful of daybeds and mostly standard restaurant-bar tables. The pool is free with any order, and evenings bring live music.
Sun loungers reportedly start at an IDR 150k per-person spend, with beach loungers and umbrellas from around IDR 250k and a daybed near IDR 350k. It's a good pick for the beach without Bali beach-club prices.

Bali Beach Bar & Grill is the beachfront grill and bar of The Meru Sanur, the restored Bali Beach Hotel. It sits directly on the sands of Sanur Beach and leans refined rather than rowdy.
It runs evening only, roughly 4pm to 10pm, built around live-fire seafood and grilled meats with cocktails, wine and craft beer. This is a dine-and-drink beach bar for sunset, not an all-day sunbed session.
Beachfront daybeds are bookable, and the resort suggests reserving one by 5pm to lock in a sunset spot. Cocktails land around IDR 130k to 190k, so roughly $9 to $13.
Pier Eight
Pier Eight is the signature beachfront restaurant and bar of the InterContinental Bali Sanur Resort, on the quieter southern end of the promenade at Semawang Beach. It's a chic but relaxed beach-bar setting rather than a sunbed day club.
The kitchen runs from breakfast through dinner, with daily live acoustic music, weekend beach bonfires and a Saturday fire dance. It's best for sunset and dinner rather than an all-day lounge.
Pricing is premium and a la carte, with no fixed entry. Ticketed events run too, like the Friday Jazz BBQ at around IDR 450k++ per person, roughly $28. Book a table for weekends.
