Nora Beach Club, situated against the stunning backdrop of Bangtao Beach in Phuket, stands out as a unique oasis within Amora Beach Resort Phuket. Led by Asia’s entertainment veteran Mark Brimblecombe, co-founder of Le Noir Entertainment and the visionary behind Attica venues in Singapore and China, the club aims to offer a distinctive blend of social drinking and beach relaxation, departing from the typical party scenes.
With the tagline “High Tides, Good Vibes,” Nora Beach Club, managed by Amora Beach Resort Phuket, is envisioned as a modern lifestyle destination. Earp Siriphatrawan, owner, and director of Amora Group describes it as a place where dining and drinks take center stage, providing a social, inclusive, energetic, and engaging atmosphere for couples, families, and friends against the backdrop of Bangtao Beach.
The daytime lounging experience at Nora begins at 11 am, offering beach day-beds, family cabanas, and various zones for a seamless transition from lunchtime indulgence to mid-day fun and sunset entertainment.
Mark Brimblecombe emphasizes the club’s focus on filling a market gap for day clubs that are less party-centric.
“There’s a big gap in the market here for day clubs, something less party-centric, and that’s what we’re here to fill,” notes Mark Brimblecombe.
The beach day-beds and family cabanas, available from 11am to 7pm daily, have garnered positive feedback from vacation guests, island locals, and residents. The club features VIP sunken booths surrounding an undulating pool for a more private setting.
Central to the club is the beach-facing bar and DJ console, complemented by outdoor tables and a stage area for live music performances. Signature Thai-inspired cocktails, crafted with local herb infusions and premium spirits, are served by the resident mixologist.
Resident DJ Jon Sa Trinxa guides guests through different evening moods, offering a musical journey from jazz and soul to balearic beats. The programming includes sunset grooves, fire shows on Thursdays to Saturdays, and live acoustic bands from 8 pm to 11 pm.
Nora Beach Club’s restaurant, set to open in March, boasts indoor tables, an open kitchen, and a Japanese-style chef’s table. The establishment includes a private dining space in The Wine Cellar for an exclusive experience with a curated selection of international wines.
Led by group executive chef Hemant Dadlani and Phuket’s executive chef Pui, Nora’s culinary offerings focus on sustainable and healthy Mediterranean cuisine. The menu features dishes with sumptuous flavors, crafted using fresh, premium ingredients adhering to world-class ethics and execution.
