Jungle Club Viewpoint is one of the best spots to take in the beautiful vistas of Koh Samui. The drive up to this hillside resort restaurant may be hair-raising, but it’s worth it for some of the best views on the island. Jungle Club has bungalows, as well as a restaurant with several dining spaces.

You have a choice of a wooden deck with Thai cushions, individual thatch-and-bamboo salas (pavilions) or the actual restaurant area itself. The northerly views from Jungle Club are of Lamai, Chaweng, Bangrak and the airport and, at noon on a clear day, are quite simply unbeatable.
