Koh Samui Nikki Beach: Hours, Prices, Day Pass and Resort

Koh Samui Nikki Beach (officially Nikki Beach Resort & Spa Koh Samui) is a beach club, restaurant and 48-room resort on Lipa Noi Beach, the island’s west-facing sunset coast, roughly 25 minutes from Samui International Airport. It’s the branded outpost of the global Nikki Beach chain, built around a pool, daybeds and a Sunday brunch. Its own site lists the Beach Club as open daily 11:00-19:00 with no cover charge, so day visitors can walk in and spend on food and drink; you do not need to stay at the resort.

Key takeaways

• Open daily, 11:00-19:00 per the venue’s own site (Sep 2026), a daytime-to-sunset club, not a late-night one.
• No cover charge; cocktails run roughly 300-450 THB (~8.50-13 USD); the weekly “Amazing Sundays Brunch” costs 2,990 THB++ for adults, 1,000 THB++ for kids aged 5-12.
• The Beach Club pool is adults-only, 16 and over; under-16s can use the restaurant and the hotel’s separate main pool.
• Hotel guests get complimentary pool and daybed access; day visitors should call ahead for daybed availability and minimum spend.
• On Lipa Noi’s quiet west coast, 35-40 minutes from Chaweng, factor that drive into an evening plan.

Key Facts

What Is Nikki Beach Koh Samui?

Nikki Beach Koh Samui sits on Lipa Noi Beach, on the quiet west coast of the island where the Gulf of Thailand faces the sunset rather than the sunrise. It combines a 48-suite-and-villa resort with a public-facing restaurant and beach club: an expansive pool ringed by daybeds and gardens, global cuisine that spans fresh seafood and sushi to Thai and international dishes, and resident DJs who play through service. It is the most internationally branded beach club on Samui (part of the same Nikki Beach group with locations from Miami to Marbella) and it markets itself as a destination in its own right rather than a stop on a beach-hopping day.

The club is not tied to a single theme night the way some Chaweng venues are. Its own site names the weekly Amazing Sundays Brunch as the flagship event, running from around midday with live cooking stations, a Beef Wellington carving station and what the venue calls the island’s largest sushi selection. Outside of brunch, the venue runs as a daytime restaurant-and-pool club through the stated 11:00-19:00 hours, with DJ sets rather than a late-night club format.

Can You Visit Nikki Beach Koh Samui Without Staying? Day Pass and Daybeds

Yes. Entry to the restaurant and Beach Club is free and there is no ticketed day pass: visitors are expected to buy food or drinks, and Beach Club daybeds carry a minimum spend that is halved for hotel guests. The venue does not publish the daybed figure, so call +66 98 509 9444 to confirm the amount and availability, especially for Sunday brunch and weekends. The Beach Club pool is for guests aged 16 and over.

Highlights

• Sunset position. Lipa Noi is one of the few stretches of Koh Samui that faces west, so the pool and beachfront daybeds get a direct, unobstructed sunset over the Gulf of Thailand, making Nikki Beach one of the few west-facing beach clubs on Samui, per this site’s own beach clubs guide.
• Amazing Sundays Brunch. The venue’s signature weekly event, listed on its event page as Sundays from 12:00 to 16:30, with live cooking stations and a stated adult price of 2,990 THB++; a shorter stationed brunch with mimosas (12:00-14:00) runs 2,800 THB++ per person on the same day.
• Resident DJs. The site describes “resident DJs” creating a soundtrack through the day rather than a fixed set schedule: expect ambient-to-upbeat lounge music, not a nightclub lineup.
• Adults-only pool area. The Beach Club pool restricts access to guests 16 and over; families with younger children are directed to the restaurant and the hotel’s separate main pool instead.
• Hotel-guest perks. Guests staying at the resort get complimentary Beach Club pool and daybed access; day visitors pay a minimum spend on daybeds, halved for hotel guests.

Nikki Beach Koh Samui Prices and Menu

The restaurant menu is international: seafood, sushi, Thai and international dishes. Menu prices are not published on the venue’s site, so the figures below combine what Nikki Beach states directly (brunch pricing, official hours) with cocktail pricing this site’s own nightlife research has gathered from the venue and comparable Lipa Noi listings; treat the drinks figure as an estimate rather than a menu quote.

“++” means service charge and VAT are added on top of the listed price, standard for Thai resort dining.

Getting There

Lipa Noi sits on Koh Samui’s southwest coast, away from the east-coast tourist strip, so a taxi, Grab or rental scooter/car is the practical way to reach Nikki Beach.

See this site’s taxi, Grab & Bolt guide for current fare ranges. Because Lipa Noi’s coast road has long unlit stretches, riding a scooter back after dark carries more risk than the same trip on the east coast: a metered taxi or Grab is the safer choice for an evening visit, especially after drinking.

Nearby

Lipa Noi is a quiet stretch of coast with a handful of other stops worth combining with a visit to Nikki Beach.

• Lipa Noi Beach: the calm, shallow beach Nikki Beach sits on, good for a walk before or after a meal.
• The Xperience: a large interactive art park, also in Lipa Noi, a short drive from Nikki Beach and an easy pairing for an afternoon-into-sunset day on this coast.
• Dusit Dhewa: a smaller Southeast Asian sculpture and art park nearby, a quieter alternative to The Xperience.
• Taling Ngam Beach: further south along the same coast, known for sunset views toward Ang Thong Marine Park.

Pros and Cons

Pros

• Genuinely unobstructed west-facing sunset, rare on an island where most of the coast faces east or north.
• No cover charge, and hotel guests get free pool and daybed access.
• Clear, published age policy for the pool area rather than an ambiguous “family-friendly” claim.
• International brand consistency for travelers who know the Nikki Beach format from other locations.

Cons

• Beach Club closes at 19:00 per the venue’s own site, so it is not a late-night option the way Chaweng’s Soi Green Mango bars are.
• No published drinks or food menu, so exact prices beyond brunch require asking on arrival.
• Far from the island’s other nightlife: a 35-40 minute drive from Chaweng each way.
• Adults-only pool policy means families with children under 16 are limited to the restaurant and the hotel’s separate pool.

FAQ

What are Nikki Beach Koh Samui’s opening hours?

Nikki Beach’s own site lists the Beach Club as open daily from 11:00 to 19:00. Some third-party listings and this site’s own nightlife guide mention a later close and an evening film night, but these are unconfirmed against the venue directly. Call ahead if planning an evening visit specifically around those extras.

Is there a dress code at Nikki Beach Koh Samui?

The venue does not publish a formal dress code on its site. As a resort restaurant and beach club, smart resortwear (no wet swimwear at the restaurant tables, cover-ups over the pool) is the safe assumption; confirm directly with the venue if attending an evening event.

How much is Nikki Beach Koh Samui?

Entry is free. Cocktails run roughly 300-450 THB (~8.50-13 USD, estimate), and the Amazing Sundays Brunch costs 2,990 THB++ per adult (about 86 USD before service charge and VAT). Daybeds need a minimum spend that the venue does not publish; ask when you call.

Is there a nudist beach near Nikki Beach Koh Samui?

No. Thailand has no official nudist beach, public nudity is illegal (fines up to 5,000 THB), and Nikki Beach is a resort beach club, not a clothing-optional venue. Topless sunbathing is technically illegal but tolerated on some tourist beaches.

Is Nikki Beach Koh Samui adults-only?

Only the Beach Club pool area is restricted to guests aged 16 and over. Children can use the restaurant and the hotel’s separate main pool, so families are not excluded from the property entirely, just from that one pool area.

How much does the Amazing Sundays Brunch cost?

Nikki Beach’s Amazing Sundays Brunch costs 2,990 THB++ per adult and 1,000 THB++ per child aged 5-12, based on live-cooking-station pricing reported for the event. A shorter stationed brunch with mimosas, running 12:00-14:00 on the same day, costs 2,800 THB++ per person.

How do I get to Nikki Beach Koh Samui without a car?

Taxi and Grab are the practical options: Nikki Beach is roughly 25 minutes from Samui International Airport and 35-40 minutes from Chaweng by road. Lipa Noi’s coast road has long unlit stretches, so a metered taxi or Grab is safer than a scooter for the return trip after dark.

Does Nikki Beach Koh Samui charge an entry fee?

No. Nikki Beach Koh Samui has no cover charge for the restaurant or Beach Club; the cost of a visit comes from food, drinks and any daybed minimum spend rather than an entry ticket.
