Skylight Nha Trang
Skylight Nha Trang occupies the 43rd through 45th floors of the Premier Havana Hotel on Tran Phu Beach as the city's signature rooftop nightclub. The setup runs across three levels combining a 360-degree skydeck observation area, an indoor club with proper sound and dance floor, and an open-air beach-club concept that pulls double duty as a dining and party space. The venue is the tallest nightlife venue in Nha Trang and the views across the bay, the city, and the distant mountains are the strongest visual proposition in the city. Entry typically includes one drink and the price scales with the night and the programming. The crowd is mixed Russian, Korean, Chinese, and Western tourists alongside well-dressed locals, with summer holiday peaks during Russian Orthodox Christmas and Chinese New Year.

Arrive before sunset for the best skydeck experience and to beat the dress code enforcement that tightens after 8 PM. The buffet package with rooftop entry is reasonable value if you want dinner with the view. Order doubles to reduce bar queue trips.
Full Review
Skylight Nha Trang occupies the top three floors of the Premier Havana, with the elevator opening to the 43rd-floor skydeck, then ascending through the indoor club on 44 and the open-air beach-club configuration on 45. The 360-degree views are genuinely impressive: the Nha Trang bay curves below, the city stretches inland to the mountains, and the southern coast disappears into the haze of distant peninsulas. Sunset reads particularly well from the western side. The lighting after dark turns the city below into the standard Asian-tourist-destination glow.
The layout splits between distinct functions. The skydeck level is the observation and casual-drink area, with bar stations and tables arranged for views rather than dancing. The middle indoor club handles the late-night dance programming with proper sound system, DJ booth, and lighting rig. The top open-air level functions as either dining or party space depending on the night and time. The transitions between levels are smooth, with elevators and a few staircases handling the flow.
The programming runs international DJ sets on weekends with rotating Korean, Vietnamese, and occasionally Western talent. The music style stays accessible (EDM, house, pop) rather than esoteric, which suits the mixed tourist crowd. Volume builds through the evening and peaks around midnight. The drinks pricing sits at the upper end of the Nha Trang market but matches the production quality. The entry fee structure with included drink is common across the city's rooftops.
The crowd is the dominant Nha Trang international tourist mix: Russian holidaymakers, Korean group tours, Chinese visitors, and the smaller flow of Western backpackers and resort guests. The dress code is enforced after 8 PM and turns away the casual beachwear that fills the daytime venues. Service can stretch thin during peak hours; the bar queue moves slowly on busy Saturdays.
The Neighborhood
Skylight sits on top of the Premier Havana Hotel at 38 Tran Phu, in the northern cluster of the Tran Phu beachfront strip. Vue Sky Bar at the same building is a quieter alternative. The InterContinental and Yasaka rooftops are within walking distance. The Old Quarter inland is a five-minute walk.
Getting There
Most arrivals are via Grab or Xanh SM (50,000-120,000 VND from anywhere in central Nha Trang). Hotel access through the dedicated elevator on the ground floor; check in at the rooftop reception. Walking from any Tran Phu hotel takes 5-15 minutes.
