A drink in the altitude
Recently I mentioned the lovely views of the Lagoon Chaweng from Khao Hua Jook Pagoda. Well, another place to have a drink looking at this landscape is the Q Bar Samui. You'll have to follow the same route to the airport, passing the Bar Ice Samui and up the mountain to the pagoda. Halfway there you will find it. From the lagoon you can see your location as there is a huge "Q" seen on the mountain below the temple. The Q Bar has rooms with different atmoshperes, and is also a restaurant for lunch and dinner with a menu that is extensive. But most impressive is its terrace over the mountain between greenery where you can see the town of Chaweng on the lagoon.
The terrace has a simple, contemporary bar with sofas inside and outside. Music, ambient, and an area for various festivals and events held here. The views joined the room dim lighting make this place a perfect place to relax with a quiet drink. We visited this place in August and perhaps a little early so we were practically alone for a while. It is a well known place in Samui though considering the prices of the town of Chaweng is expensive. However the prices do not exceed what we normally pay in Spain to dine or have a drink so it is worth climbing up toenjoy the view.
