Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

The design here is a real eye-catcher, and that's no mere gimmick. Think lush jungle plants, atmospheric lighting, and an ambiance reminiscent of Tulum—all this on a stretch of Chaweng Beach Road where most places are rather loud and interchangeable. It opens at 5 p.m. and stays open until 3 a.m. The character of the place changes throughout the night: first dinner, then cocktails and lounge music. The resident DJs spin sets that are more spiritual and atmospheric than loud and booming.

The cuisine plays a more prominent role here than in most design-oriented bars. Sushi is particularly emphasized, especially the volcano tuna, and presentation is a key element. The cocktails are mixed with great attention to detail and are reasonably priced for the bar's ambiance. One reviewer, however, wished for a slightly more sophisticated version and reported that the bar was happy to recreate it. The staff receives consistently high praise, with guests even mentioning their waiter by name. This is generally a good sign.

If you're coming for the food and the quiet room option, it's best to book for the early evening. Arriving at 11 pm will give you a completely different atmosphere – perhaps exactly what you're looking for.
