Samsara Beach

What Samsara Beach does

Samsara Beach is a privately held Italian beach-club and entertainment brand founded in 2006 in Gallipoli by Rocco Greco and Giovanni, with David Cicchella joining as a co-founder in 2007. The company operates three beach establishments — Samsara Beach Gallipoli (flagship), Samsara Beach Riccione (opened June 1, 2017, Marano area, with an attached panoramic restaurant), and Samsara Beach Deluxe in Budva, Montenegro (a 7,800 m² premium site with two restaurants and bar stations, opened 2017) — through two Italian private limited companies, Sabbia d'oro S.r.l. (Gallipoli) and Nirvana S.r.l. (Riccione). Its core offering combines beach services (umbrella and sunbed rentals, panoramic restaurants) with a daily afternoon-to-evening beach-party format featuring resident and international DJs, and the brand explicitly targets young adult beachgoers (18–35), with secondary segments for groups/private events (bachelor/bachelorette, corporate) and families.
