Cloud 9, Fiji: Probably the best restaurant in the world

Far from the crowded coast of Viti Levu, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, there is an amazing restaurant that surpasses conventional expectations. Here the blue waves and the heavens unite in a harmonic and lovely manner. Cloud 9 is more than a bar and restaurant. It presents a fascinating and sensory encounter. This intriguing location draws both adventurers and foodies only reachable by a beautiful boat trip from Port Denarau, lasting roughly 45 minutes, or a quick 10-minute ride by speedboat from Vanua Malolo.

The expectation gets stronger as Cloud 9 approaches, enhanced by the soft rhythmic sound of waves hitting the boat and the seductive scent of salt in the surroundings. Arriving visitors are greeted by a stunning structure with two floors meant to house about 100 guests that gracefully hangs above the glistening turquoise ocean. Incorporating natural wood elements and large outdoor areas that inspire guests to relax in the sun or find cover in the shade, the restaurant’s design harmonically blends with its surroundings, so allowing visitors to savor the amazing views of the endless ocean.

Cloud 9 offers quite outstanding gourmet choices. Imagine savoring real Italian pizza, with its perfectly charred crust from a traditional wood-fired oven, as the sun sets and the water glows brilliantly golden.

Signature drink, the Mai Tai cocktail accentuates the gastronomic pleasure. This invigorating mix of tropical fruits and rum produces a strong taste that will satisfy the pallet.

Eating at Cloud 9 is a fascinating and amazing event. The sky transforms at sunset into a brilliant palette of blazing oranges and delicate pinks, which then casts their hues onto the water in an arresting display. The little wind carries the sounds of laughter and clinking glasses, creating a lively and cosy atmosphere at once. Here, the passage of time seems to stop so that guests may totally live in the present, surrounded by the beauty of the surroundings and the real friendliness of Fijian hospitality.
