ZAMA Skybar

4.6(513 reviews)

Perched above the Jomtien Beach strip, this rooftop bar brings together panoramic coastal views, live DJ sets, and occasional fire dancer performances to create one of the more visually striking nightlife experiences in the Pattaya area. The elevated setting catches the sea breeze and offers a natural backdrop for both socialising and photography, drawing a relaxed mix of tourists and locals looking for an evening out away from the busier central Pattaya scene. The atmosphere leans lively but not overwhelming, with attentive staff consistently highlighted by visitors. The drinks menu includes cocktails, wine, and other beverages at prices that reviewers generally consider reasonable for a skybar setting. Food is also available and has received positive mentions. One honest note from visitors: the cocktails have drawn mixed feedback, so wine or simpler drinks may be the safer order if you are particular about mixed drinks. Good to know: Jomtien Beach sits a few kilometres south of Walking Street, making ZAMA a solid choice for those who want an energetic atmosphere without the full intensity of central Pattaya nightlife. Opening hours are not listed online, so it is worth checking locally or via social media before making the trip. Smart-casual attire is appropriate — beach clothes are best left behind once the sun goes down.

Visitor Reviews

beautiful rooftop bar with jaw-dropping art sculpture! had a live dj and fire dancers, the staff was very attentive and good-natured, and the drinks were delicious and not super overpriced compared to other places (about USD$10-15 per drink). would definitely come back!

The service is very nice and friendly. The drink is amazing and they also have the DJ playing the music for you as well. Good views for the picture as well.

Good vibe, good beverage and good service from the staff from K.Big,Peach, Breeze and the bartender gang!!!

Tips for Visiting Nightlife & Bars

Carry Your Passport or a Copy

Clubs and some bars check IDs strictly, especially in Bangkok's Thonglor, RCA, and Sukhumvit areas. A photo of your passport info page on your phone usually works, but carrying a laminated photocopy is safer.

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.
