Lamai Cocktails

Tucked into the lively Lamai beach area of Koh Samui, this cocktail bar has built a strong following among both tourists and locals for its crafted drinks and consistent quality behind the bar. The focus here is squarely on mixology, with bartenders who bring genuine attention to technique and flavour rather than simply churning out high-volume resort drinks. The atmosphere strikes a balance between casual and energetic, making it a natural fit for a range of evenings out. Small groups stopping in for pre-dinner drinks feel as at home as those settling in for a longer night. The Lamai setting works in its favour too, placing it within easy reach of the beach, accommodation, and dining along one of Koh Samui's most visited stretches of coastline. Beach casual attire is perfectly appropriate, and many visitors arrive directly from an afternoon by the water. Good to know: Lamai picks up considerably during peak season from November through February, so the bar tends to get busier during these months and particularly in the evenings. Specific opening hours are not currently listed online, so it is worth checking directly before planning your night around a visit, particularly during the quieter shoulder season months.
