ARKbar Beach Club & Resort - Adults Only
Daily pool parties fifty metres from the main strip
About this hotel
ARKbar Beach Club & Resort runs two outdoor pools, one at the beach club itself and a second with a slide at the renovated hotel buildings, giving guests a choice between the party pool and a quieter lane. Air-conditioned rooms have private balconies, a flat-screen cable TV and a safety deposit box, and guests can enjoy a body massage or a game of billiards alongside free WiFi throughout. The beachside restaurant serves Thai and Western dishes with fresh seafood specialities, and the resort hosts a daily pool party plus a beach party twice a week. A strict noise policy applies after midnight, with an immediate check-out risk for repeat violations, and Koh Samui Airport is ten minutes' drive away.

- Adults-only resort
Our take
The clearest choice in Chaweng for guests who want the beach club scene built directly into their stay, with two pools letting the party and the quiet options coexist on one property. The fifty-metre distance to the main strip removes any need for late-night transport. Guests wanting a fully quiet stay should book the renovated hotel-block rooms specifically and stay clear of the beach club pool after dark.
- Book a renovated hotel-block room, not a beach club room, if you want quieter nights.
- Check the beach party schedule in advance, since it only runs twice a week rather than daily.
- Respect the midnight noise policy strictly, since repeat violations can lead to an immediate check-out.
Why we love it
- Two outdoor pools, one built for parties

- Fifty metres from the main strip
- Beachside restaurant with fresh seafood
Why guests love itARKbar Beach Club & Resort is adults-only, so it is not a family stay, and I would say so plainly. It is a three-star beachfront resort fifty metres from Chaweng's main strip, with two outdoor pools, a daily pool party and a beach party twice a week. That makes it loud and lively from midday. For a quieter night I would ask for a renovated hotel-block room and keep away from the beach club pool after dark.
