Kizomba at Sushi Love, Koh Phangan

This is a sushi restaurant on Madurwan Road that runs a single weekly Kizomba social on Saturdays, food-first, island crowd. The space is a dining room with tables and a counter rather than a ballroom; Google lists the kitchen open into the evening with most nights closing around midnight. Expect dancers to eat before or grab takeaway after the social.

Because it’s a restaurant the dance floor is limited, think a cleared patch between tables, not a large wooden floor, so close partnerwork suits the space. The crowd is small, a mix of locals and travellers, and the venue’s Instagram is the primary place for event updates. If you need a big floor or formal classes, look elsewhere; if you want a casual island social with good sushi nearby, bring your appetite and be ready to dance in a tight space.
