Diamond Cliff Restaurant on Lanta is the best place to meet the sunset at the sea
Diamond Cliff Resort & Restaurant is the only restaurant on the steep rocky shores of Nui Beach. As the name implies, the owners of Diamond Cliff manage both the resort where you can stay and the restaurant at this resort, although I would not say offhand which brings in more money, and what is more important in this tandem. Below, under the rocks, there is a small beautiful Nui beach, where you can go down the steep stairs directly from the restaurant (the passage is free). And in the restaurant itself you can have a good time, especially at sunset - there is a gorgeous view of the sea, and what is important - Diamond Cliff did not use their monopoly and did not raise the price tag to the skies, although the network often comes across other opinions on this matter.

Diamond Cliff Restaurant
The decor is pleasant, the whole interior is wooden, but I would not say that it is in any way very different from similar restaurants. Such, ordinary, civil thaistyle. The restaurant's interior is lamp-based, in warm colors, with many wooden objects, planks, decor made of ropes and ropes - in general, a typical island restaurant..
But the location at Diamond Cliff is wonderful: a two-tiered platform on the cliff, and overlooking the sea. The place is extremely popular, and if you plan to get here at sunset, then the best places should be reserved in advance, or come a couple of hours before sunset. However, in February, at rush hour, I found myself a place with a view, albeit not the best. Contrary to some other reviews, I do not consider this restaurant overly expensive, for me the prices on the menu are average, just like everywhere else in the restaurants of Ko Lanta and other resorts, if we are talking about restaurants with a sea view.
Ordered Iced thai tea for 80 baht and massaman curry fish for 160 baht. The portion is average, but I am full. They brought it pretty quickly, after about 10 minutes. So I ate 240 baht in total. Yes, of course, if I had been more hungry, I would have taken something else, but even if I added the second course, it would not have worked out much more. Unless, of course, add lobsters))
Information to visit
Open daily from 11:30 am to 10 pm.
The parking is on the side of the main road with a small pocket, it is very spacious for bikes, but the cars will have to be parked at an angle or parallel to the road. Approximately 4-5 parking spaces.
I was 2 times, in the morning, ordering breakfast and in the evening at sunset. I enjoyed it both times, although the breakfasts are pretty basic. In the morning, too, a beautiful view of the sea and at the same time there are few people.
A visit to the beach and the restaurant can be set as a separate trip for the afternoon - sunbathing on the beach and watching the sunset on the rock, at a table for two. It is better not to come with small children, you will constantly clutch at your heart - the railings around the perimeter are very conditional, and the height is decent. Be sure to reserve a table for dinner if you need the best seats. And yes, when booking they have a transfer.
