Koh Samui

Best Rooftop Bar in Koh Samui

Koh Samui's 'rooftops' are mostly hillside resort bars and cliff-edge restaurants. The best sunset vantage points face west from Lipa Noi, Taling Ngam and the hillsides above Bophut.

Tips

  • Air Bar at the InterContinental in Taling Ngam faces west and is built specifically around sunset, open 5-11pm — reserve 24-48 hours ahead.
  • Beach Republic Sky Bar in Lamai runs a sunset DJ set from 5pm and sits at the lower end of the price range, 350-550 THB.
  • Six Senses Dining on the Rocks in Choeng Mon is a cliff-edge dinner deck rather than a drinks-only bar, and needs a reservation.
  • None of these are true high-rise rooftops — they're hillside or cliff-edge resort venues, so expect a taxi or scooter ride rather than a walk from the beach road.
  • Nikki Beach Samui in Lipa Noi tops the price range, 500-900 THB, and is also known for its Sunday brunch, so it draws a daytime crowd as well as a sunset one.
