Rock Bar

Great place to watch the sunset, but you need to make a reservation. Once you book, you can arrive early and they’ll find you a table—don’t worry, the place is huge with over 500 tables. The earlier you come, the better. There’s a minimum charge of 350k IDR per person (around $20). The food wasn’t the best, but the atmosphere and the sunset view were absolutely stunning, plus there’s a live DJ. Definitely recommend adding this to your Bali list.

Where to begin with Rock Bar? Perched literally on the rocks, it offers an indescribably stunning view of the ocean—truly one of the most iconic sunset spots in Bali. On a clear, sunny day, a breathtaking sunset is all but guaranteed. The sound of waves crashing below, the golden light reflecting off the sea, and the panoramic horizon stretching out in front of you—it’s an experience that leaves you in awe. I felt incredibly fortunate to have celebrated my big birthday on the Round Deck, a more intimate setting with uninterrupted views. It made the moment feel truly special—surreal, even. The staff go above and beyond, not just with attentive service, but also in helping guests capture perfect photos. They understand that this place is not just about drinks, but memories. The cocktails are well-crafted and refreshing, but honestly, the view is the real star. If you’re visiting Ayana, Rock Bar is simply unmissable.

The bar is located in a truly beautiful spot. If you arrive about 1.5 hours before sunset, be prepared — it gets very hot, even though there are umbrellas. We didn’t make a reservation and came by chance about two hours before sunset, being among the first guests. The sunset itself was truly unforgettable. We paid nearly €300 for some snacks and champagne. The food certainly doesn’t match the prices, but for such an incredible view, it feels worth it.

Visited in August 2022 and I still can’t get over how stunning the sunset was. This place isn’t just a bar—it’s an experience. Perched on the edge of a cliff with the ocean crashing below, every golden hour turns into a movie scene. Drinks were solid, vibes were unmatched, and the staff was super friendly. Pro tip: come early to grab the best seat before it gets packed.

The bar looks amazing, it’s really huge with lots of tables. There’s a dress code (basically, guys just shouldn’t wear tank tops). The staff are super friendly and nice. The food is just okay, like a 3 out of 5. We ordered some tapas—some were good, some not so much. Prices are above average, but it makes sense—you’re paying for the view, and that’s just part of the deal in places like this. There’s a deposit of 300,000 min per person if you order from the Tapas menu. The view is honestly wow—super beautiful, with the waves crashing right next to you. It’s perfect for a one-time visit!

The Rock Bar in Bali is absolutely amazing! The atmosphere is unique, the sunset view is breathtaking, and the whole experience feels magical. Perfect place to relax, enjoy good drinks, and watch the sun go down over the ocean. Truly unforgettable!

FIRST & LAST ‼️ Arrived at 5pm for a 7:30pm reservation. The staff were welcoming at first and seated us at a hot walk-in area with umbrellas. Ordered some beers while waiting, then asked about our dinner table, turns out it was just right beside our current counter top seat, with a poor view, while walk-in guests at 5pm got the top deck seats with the best views. Decided to try some bites before dinner-ordered nachos, and they were honestly the worst I’ve ever had: bland, tasteless, nowhere 5-star hotel standard. We lost our appetite and canceled dinner. By 7pm we decided to leave. Shockingly, the exit process was terrible-no guidance, no staff escort like when we arrived, just vague directions. The way out was dark, with endless stairs, and even other guests were complaining. In the end, 4 beers and awful nachos cost nearly 900k IDR. The view is the only thing worth it, but overall a disappointing, overpriced experience. Definitely won’t return.

My experience at the Rock Bar in Bali was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the breathtaking views perched on the edge of a cliff, the sunset over the ocean created the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable evening. We were there to celebrate my husband’s birthday, and the staff was nice with warm hospitality, no extra touches for the birthday guy but my husband is laid back and wanted it that way! The food was delicious! beautifully presented, full of flavor, and satisfying from start to finish. The drinks were good nothing really spectacular about the drinks had a okay selection of cocktails and mocktails. One of the standout features was how well they accommodated large groups. We had plenty of space, and the seating was arranged in a way that allowed everyone to enjoy the view and still feel connected to the group. What made the evening even more memorable was the overall vibe—elegant yet relaxed, with great music and an atmosphere that made us want to stay all night. Whether you’re celebrating something special or just want an incredible night out in Bali, Rock Bar delivers an experience that hits all the right notes. We’ll definitely be back! Have your cameras ready bc these are instagramable moments!
