Have you ever partied in the middle of the sea, with a breathtaking view of the bay? Imagine lounging on an infinity pool that seems to merge seamlessly with the horizon, sipping your favorite drink as cool beats fill the air. That’s exactly what we experienced at YONA Beach Club during our organization’s chapter retreat in Phuket, Thailand.
We spent the afternoon floating above crystal-clear waters while indulging in overflowing drinks (my personal go-to: San Mig Light). They served us non-stop with mouthwatering food like fresh oysters, tropical fruits, wood-fired pizza, and so much more.
Perched exclusively for our contingent on the upper decks, we reveled in luxury and exclusivity at its Sunset Terrace on the 2nd floor and the Rooftop on the 3rd floor. Truly, it was a testament to how YONA transforms ordinary gatherings into extraordinary memories. The vibrant energy, combined with the stunning 360-degree ocean views, made it clear why this floating beach club has become one of Phuket’s hottest destinations.
The Story Behind YONA
In 2016, a visionary entrepreneur embarked on a six-year journey to create something truly unique in Phuket—a place where dreams could transcend reality. This dream materialized as YONA Beach Club, named after his beloved daughter, Yona. What started as a concept evolved into a state-of-the-art, multi-level floating haven designed to offer guests an unparalleled experience above the sea.
YONA isn’t just another beach club; it’s a carefully curated oasis meant to transport visitors to a world of wonder. From its bohemian-chic design to its commitment to exceptional hospitality, every detail reflects the founder’s passion for creating moments that last a lifetime. Whether through A-list DJs spinning tracks by the infinity pool or the meticulously crafted menu featuring gourmet dishes and signature cocktails, YONA delivers an unmatched blend of style, comfort, and adventure.
At its core, YONA exists to inspire. It invites guests to step away from the mundane and immerse themselves in a setting so unique and inspiring that they leave feeling transformed. Stepping onto YONA feels like entering a realm where time slows down, allowing you to fully embrace the beauty of the moment.
