Why go, and how to do it well
Tucked away on the island of Koh Chang in Trat Province, The Malibu Bar is a mid-range bar and pub that draws a relaxed crowd throughout the day and into the late evening. Open seven days a week from 11am, it caters to both daytime drinkers looking to ease into island life and evening visitors seeking a sociable spot to wind down after a day of exploring.
The atmosphere leans casual and unhurried, fitting the broader vibe of Koh Chang itself. Guests can expect a laid-back setting suited to tropical island drinking, with the kind of easygoing energy that encourages long afternoons stretching into nights. The bar holds a strong reputation among visitors, reflected in consistently positive feedback from those who have spent time there.
Practically speaking, The Malibu Bar is accessible throughout the week with no days off, making it a reliable option regardless of when travelers arrive on the island. Opening at 11am means it works equally well for a lazy midday drink as for an evening out. There is no website listed, so those planning to visit are better off heading in directly rather than trying to book ahead. It sits within Amphoe Ko Chang, Trat Province, and is best reached by the local transport options available on the island.

Tips for Visiting Nightlife & Bars
Know the Closing Times
Legal closing time is 2 AM for most venues, though enforcement varies. In Bangkok's designated entertainment zones (RCA, Silom Soi 2/4, Khao San), some clubs stay open until 4 AM. Islands tend to be more relaxed about hours.
Buy Bucket Drinks Cautiously
Island bucket drinks (mixed spirits in a small bucket) are cheap and fun but notoriously strong and inconsistent. Stick to one, stay hydrated, and never leave your drink unattended at beach parties.
Arrange Your Ride Home
Use Grab (ride-hailing app) to get home safely — taxis outside nightlife areas late at night often refuse meters. Set up the app before going out, and keep your phone charged.
