Dining in the Clouds: Restaurants Taking Gourmet Experiences to New Heights

Imagine being lifted to new heights of experience during a romantic dinner or a family gathering. The magic happens when resorts transform meals into moments almost from another world. That’s right: some dream destinations are taking their clients to the highest levels, with luxurious restaurants located in the treetops.

In The Treetop at Mandarina, Mexico, a suspended platform in the treetops offers spectacular views of the coast and the sea, accompanied by local snacks and natural wines. Below, Vogue Brasil details everything about these and other spots that will impress you. Check it out:
