Inside Bastion Beach Club: Shilpa Shetty expands her hospitality brand with Mumbai’s first all-day beachfront hub
Positioned as the city’s first all-day beach destination, the club brings together food, music, leisure and wellness in a large-format space overlooking the Arabian Sea. With direct views of the sea and a huge pool at its centre, the venue aims to introduce a European-style beach club experience to Mumbai’s social circuit.
Design and location
Designed by Minal Chopra, the property takes aesthetic cues from coastal destinations like Fiji, Mykonos and Saint-Tropez. Open layouts, fluid indoor-outdoor transitions and a neutral coastal palette define the space, while the ocean-facing deck and pool area serve as its visual anchor.
During the day, the focus is on resting comfortably. The club is designed to host healthy mornings as well as brunches, family outings and special children’s activities. As the evening progresses, the mood shifts to sunsets and live DJ-led sessions, eventually transforming into a high-energy nightlife setting.
food program
The culinary direction combines popular dishes from Bastian’s existing menu with Inca influences, offering Asian and Latin-inspired flavors. The small plates section includes dishes like Veg Dry Corn Ceviche with Chipotle and Green Apple, Lique Guacamole with Habanero and Rock Broccolini with Curry Leaves and Chili. Seafood options include hamachi ceviche with sweet potatoes and tiger milk.
Sushi, bao and dumplings are an important part of the menu, while larger plates include the Tropical Bowl with coconut milk and turmeric-spiced cheese and the Kinoko Hikari with wild mushrooms and truffle oil. Non-vegetarian offerings include the 5 Pimientas Chicken Bowl and the Arabian Seabass Amazonico.
Desserts range from tiramisu and cheesecake to hazelnut pull-me-up cake and a citrus-forward lime-lemon creation.
Cocktail led evenings
The bar menu has been designed to complement the coastal theme. The Sakura Cloud Martini blends gin, sake and lychee with jasmine foam. The Tigre Verde combines vodka with coriander and citrus, while the Pacific Breeze combines tequila with lemongrass, ginger and coconut water. The Shogun Mojito introduces shiso and sake to the classic mix.
Bastian Beach Club is located at 39, Sun-N-Sand, Juhu Beach, Mumbai. It operates from Tuesday to Sunday, 4 pm to 1 am. The weekend cover charge is Rs 5,000 per person.
