Thinking about Mrs Sippy Bali? This iconic beach club is famous for its massive saltwater pool and thrilling diving platform, creating an electric party vibe. But is it worth the hefty price tag? This review breaks down the full experience, from the vibrant social scene and must-try food to the pricey minimum spend and other hidden 'traps'. Get the essential tips to decide if this famous hotspot is right for your Bali trip and how to make the most of it.
There are so many Instagram-famous spots in Bali, and Mrs Sippy is definitely the main attraction. Every time I scroll through Instagram, my feed is flooded with its iconic multi-level diving platform. I felt like I wouldn't be doing justice to my plane ticket if I didn't come check it out. But to be honest, after experiencing it this time, my feelings are a bit complicated… It was like a rollercoaster ride🎢, with moments that were absolutely exhilarating, and also some things that made me want to roll my eyes.
The moment I stepped inside, the huge saltwater pool was truly impressive, and paired with the chill music the DJ was playing, the vibe was maxed out immediately. Lots of good-looking guys and girls were Nongkrong in the pool or sunbathing on the daybeds. The energy on-site was super high; it's truly a place born for social parties. In the afternoon, watching people leap from the high diving platform, making a huge splash to the cheers of the whole crowd, that feeling was pretty Mantap!
Since there were a lot of us, we just booked a daybed with a minimum spend. We got hungry and randomly ordered some food, so here's the report for you girls:
The seafood main, Mahi Mahi[1], was not bad, the fish was quite tender; Pork and Fish Tacos[2] were also okay, good as a snack to fill you up a bit. As for the cocktails my friend ordered, they looked great, but they tasted like juice with a little bit of alcohol[3], so friends who want to get a little tipsy might need to order a few more. Oh, right, for dessert, you can try the Valrhona Smoked Chocolate Lava Cake[4]; the flavor is quite unique and worth a try.
Alright, enough with the praise, time for some real talk. There are quite a few 'traps' here, Anjay!
First off, the minimum spend for a daybed starts at 2 million IDR[5], and it can be even higher on weekends. A real blow to the wallet. Secondly, and this is the part I understand the least, they actually prohibit you from bringing your own towel. You have to rent one for 50k IDR[6]… I've never seen a policy like this before. Finally, don't forget when you pay the bill, all charges are subject to an additional 17% tax and service fee[7]. It really hurts 💔. Also, when it gets crowded, the cleanliness of the pool and restrooms can't quite keep up. I even saw some chipped paint at the bottom of the pool[8], which might be a bit uncomfortable for germaphobes.
My guide for you to avoid the traps
For the girls planning to check this place out, get your notebooks ready and take this down!
- 1. Go at specific times to save money: If you don't want to spend a fortune renting a daybed, arrive before 11 AM[9] to snag a good spot. Alternatively, entry might be free after 5 PM[10], but by then it's in full party mode, not suitable for families with kids.
- 2. Pack light: Definitely don't bring towels or water, as they'll be confiscated anyway. Just go in and rent them to not ruin your mood.
- 3. Transportation: Parking spots are extremely limited and hard to find[11]. Just take a Gojek/Grab there; don't torture yourself by driving.
- 4. Manage your expectations: This place is a massive social pool party, so don't expect to chill quietly. The staff at the entrance might be a bit 'robotic'[12], but the servers inside are quite enthusiastic. If you're looking for some peace and quiet, you should definitely skip this place and go somewhere else
- Insta-famous iconic multi-level diving platform! Watch thrilling high dives, crowd roars, pure adrenaline rush!
- Savor fresh Mahi Mahi[1] seafood, then the unique Valrhona smoked chocolate lava cake[2]. Flavor explosion!
- Massive saltwater pool + DJ's chill beats. Unmatched vibe, ultimate party spot!
