Dining at Six Senses has always been special but now this has been taken to new heights with the recently launched Treepod Dining experience at Soneva Kiri by Six Senses. Situated at one of the best vantage points in the resort guests board the treepod at ground level and then are gently hoisted 16 feet in the air into the tall, native massang trees. Host Khun Lek accesses the diners through the air on a zip line coming from a small platform perched half way down the hill. Once Lek has served the meal he zips back down the hill, discreetly of course, but is always on hand should the guests need him.
One achievement that the resort is particularly proud of is that the structure was built without any bolts of attachments into the trees.
Breakfast, Lunch or dinner are available at the Treepod and menus follow jungle themes such as 'Canapés in the Canopy', 'Forager's Basket', 'Woodland Offerings', using produce predominantly from the resort's organic gardens or the island of Koh Kood. With birds' eye views over the stunning scenery and the only other company being the odd butterfly or the interruption of the swaying leaves this dining experience is one to remember. The Luxury Travel Bible has heard that even those without a head for heights are enjoying this unusual experience. SB
