Located an hour away from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok is this Maldives-inspired cafe. Similar to the over water bungalows in the Maldives, guests walk along the elevated walkways across turquoise waters.
There are 4 zones to choose from - building, swing, bridge and bar zone.
The “building” features hammocks on the 2nd floor hanging directly over the water.
The private villa/sheltered pavilion features a swing.
The bridge has no umbrellas and is only open for dine-in after 1600.
The bar zone is located away from the water and defeats the purpose of why we were there.
Reservations are required. I downloaded the LINE app specifically for this reason, and although I reached out, I didn’t receive any response. Instead, I asked the hotel concierge to assist.
To secure a reservation, a deposit of 300 THB per person is required.
I’m still a little miffed that the cafe responded to the hotel via LINE, but never responded to me.
The check-in process went smoothly and we were given a ticket. However, not long after we sat down to wait, hordes of other tourists arrived.
When the cafe opened, they rushed to sit at the private villas. The staff wasn’t very helpful with directing us to our respective villa, and just pointed in a general direction.
I had to flag down another staff member who finally pointed out our reserved villa. The other tourists that occupied our villa realized they were in our space and left without a word.
Menu prices a bit expensive for Thailand standards and there are added fees - 7% VAT and 10% service charge.
Service was SLOW! I saw others in the building being served drinks and we didn’t even receive a menu! I flagged down a staff member to request a menu AND to order. D*mm!
The dishes were tasty and better than expected.
