The property will sit on 1.4 acres of beachfront, with a restaurant, pool and beach access with oceanfront seating for up to 200 people.

The beach club will run along the shore and offer yacht access directly at the location, along with water shuttle service.

Also on hand will be all-white sunbeds and VIP cabanas, along with resident DJs and musicians.

“Since Barbados is a destination that I’ve started to frequent recently, I feel that this location is not only a strategic move from a Nikki Beach business strategy perspective but that Barbados is an island where our brand can really make an impact on a local level,” said Jack Penrod, founder and owner of Nikki Beach Worldwide. “We intend to support the Barbados economy with job opportunities, and will work closely with local farmers and fisherman to bring our farm-to-table menu to our guests.”

Nikki Beach Barbados will serve daytime and seaside dinner service, with a menu helmed by Chef Brian Molloy, Nikki Beach’s director of culinary operations.

Nikki Beach has locations around the world in Miami Beach, Florida, USA; Saint Tropez, France; Saint Barth, French West Indies; Marbella, Spain; Marrakech, Morocco; Koh Samui, Thailand; Mallorca, Spain; Ibiza, Spain; Porto Heli, Greece; Monte Carlo, Monaco; Dubai, UAE; Bodrum, Turkey and Versilia, Italy.
