Full Review
Maia Beach Bar sits at 284 Vo Nguyen Giap with the beachfront deck running directly onto the sand. The interior design leans modern and clean: white-and-blue palette, contemporary furniture, and a layout that emphasizes the beach views without competing with them.
The cocktail tower presentations are the venue's social media signature. Three-liter cocktail vessels delivered to tables with multiple mixing options; the format works for groups and produces the photographs that have built Maia's reputation. The standard cocktail program also runs strong; the bartenders handle classic technique competently.
The sunset DJ programming runs reliably Friday through Sunday from 17:30. House, deep house, and crossover dominate the playlists; the volume sits between background and dance-leaning. The format works for visitors who want sunset music without committing to a party.
The drink prices sit at the upper My Khe tier. Beer at 80,000-150,000 VND; cocktails at 200,000-350,000 VND; cocktail towers at 1,500,000-3,000,000 VND. The pricing matches Esco; the format competes on style rather than price.
The crowd skews younger and more international than Esco. Vietnamese weekend visitors, Korean and Chinese tour groups, and Western visitors mix; the cocktail tower format pulls groups celebrating birthdays and special occasions.
Compared with Esco (more restaurant-focused), Kala Kala (more party-leaning), and the casual My Khe bars, Maia is the polished social-media-friendly middle option. For visitors wanting the contemporary My Khe experience with cocktail towers and sunset DJ atmosphere, this is the consensus choice.
