Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I had the opportunity to visit the rockhead, so trySky Bar&Restaurant. The atmosphere is very nice, the air is cool outside, the air is cool because of the music, and ordered food from Chef Rabbit. The chef is very hospitable, attentive to customer needs.

My partner and I were there for dinner at the sky bar. We loved every second of it. The view was incredible, the food was delicious and the staff are very friendly and helpful. We had a head chef called Chef Rabbit came to us and asked if he could do anything for us, and he recommended us to order his fantastic food. That was so kind and thoughtful of him and the team. Would like to go back again. Thank you.

Vana Nava Skybar offers an exceptional view of Hua Hin, which alone makes it well worth a visit. However, the quality of the food and drinks also deserves high praise. The service provided by the staff was flawless. I opted for the mushroom soup, while my husband chose the beef with accompaniments. The soup was excellent, and my husband, who has high expectations for steak, was thoroughly satisfied. The meat was perfectly cooked to medium-rare, exactly as he prefers. We would certainly be pleased to return.

I was there for drinks and light dinner/snacks. Surprised to find this kind of high end bar in a Holiday Inn. I had a Negroni which was done properly - the bar used big cubed ice which many places do not. Premium spirits are available with very reasonable prices compared to comparable high end "rooftop" bars in Asia and North America. Quite impressed with the food - miso scallops, Waygu beef skewers and rice paper rolls were all done very well. They do seem to pride themselves on attention on the small details (eg. the ice and garnish on the Negroni, the rice paper roll was soft and delicate in texture, finishing garnishes on the scallops, beef and/or chicken skewers etc). Other people were having the larger plates and they looked very good. Hostess Odette was great at seeing everything was running efficiently and addressing guests needs when a large group (3 table with 30+ people) descended on the bar. Service was well maintained while some very large groups meandered about taking pictures on the glass balcony. Reminder to take a few pictures on the vertigo-inducing glass floored balcony before drinking too much. Definitely a memorable experience in Hua Hin and certainly one of the more impressive "rooftop" bars in the region

Choose to drink Margarita. Out of 10, give 10. Friends who drink red wine also like it very much. The manager Mr. Oded took very good care of him, giving advice starting with drinks followed by food. Very cute and hospitable I am very impressed with the service.

Restaurant with good atmosphere The night view is very beautiful. There is a glass-floor viewing point to test your courage a bit. Most foods come in small versions. But every menu tastes good. Ordered many things. All the employees are the cutest, 100% service mind, helping and giving advice, helping and recommending every menu.

The Vana Nava is a wonderful Sky bar overlooking Hua Hin and the sea. It’s a great spot to sit and chill while the in house DJs take you back in time with some fantastic disco music. The menu has a great selection of food , cocktails and wine and the staff are attentive and great fun ! Definitely worth a visit at the weekend !

This is the best place to watch the sunset in Hua Hin, located on the roof of the Hua Hin Holiday Inn Resort.
The drink menu is very distinctive and I really like the hand-drawn style and simple introduction. The cocktail preparation was excellent, with a perfect balance of alcohol and other ingredients. Mocktails are good, too. I had the cranberry one, it's not too sweet and the flavor is really good.The food menu is also extensive, with pizza, seafood, wagyu beef and some salty snacks. The oysters are imported from France, very fresh, and they're served with Thai seafood sauce. But I'm so surprised with a sauce of shallots and vinegar, which is very fancy, and I love it.
Thanks to the bartending team and Chef Bush and Chef Ice for a perfect taste experience. The service was perfect and we were guided and introduced by the service attendant from the moment we entered the restaurant and were given an excellent sunset table. They served the food and beverage was so perfect, even if the plates were heavy. Special thanks to the Food and beverage team P'Noon for the warm service and encouragement. Great chat and great evening! Everything is amazing and unforgettable.

We visited the Vana Nava Skybar and restaurant on Christmas Eve, hoping for a nice night out with delicious cocktails. The cocktails were fine, but at a price of around 360 Thai Baht, which is certainly not cheap by Thai standards, you expect a certain level of class in terms of both drinks and atmosphere. Unfortunately, nothing could be further from the truth.
We arrived around 10 PM, and the music was already quite loud, almost techno, and it only got worse. I’ve been a DJ for a long time myself, but this DJ couldn’t even be called one. This music belongs on a cheap camping for 15/16 year old kids. If you know the audience in Hua Hin, you should be playing music that suits the vibe, but it felt like we were listening to pre-recorded YouTube mixes. If there was a request, they quickly consulted YouTube, resulting in terribly poor quality music. So, both in terms of song choice and sound quality, it was a disaster.
I’m happy to spend 2000 Baht or even double that for a night out, but this was absolutely not worth the money. The last time we visited, there was a different DJ (a man) who understood the vibe much better.
Oh, and did I mention that the waitresses were dressed in Christmas outfits with short skirts, like something you’d see in a shady club on Patpong? It’s clear that the management needs improvement because, at least for us, we won’t be returning. What a disaster.

Reservation by email . No confirmation, was not even looked at . Restaurant too cool ,uncomfortable . Service very friendly . Campari soda was brought 2 cl Campari with 10 ice cubes . It tasted like nothing with the soda. The spaghetti arrived after 3 minutes . Were not aldente. Just cold, pre-cooked, warmed in the pan in the oil . Main dishes were nothing special , side dishes not hot. . Overpriced for quality. Restaurant DAR in the neighborhood , is No. 1 in Hua Hin.

It's hard to make a correct judgment about that. First of all the food was good, but ... two of the four menus ordered were served incorrectly. The staff barely spoke a word of English, friendly they were, if a bit awkward. The place was clean and just getting some air on the terrace with glass floor was actually worth it. The prices are higher than average, because I think you also pay for the panorama view. I don't advise against it, you have to go through it once.

During our visit to the rooftop bar at Vana Nava Holiday Inn Hua Hin we were blown away by both the atmosphere and the exceptional service provided by Kun Chatree. although we weren't staying at the hotel, Khun Chatree made us fell like valued guests from the moment we arrived. His friendly, welcoming nature set the tone for a fantastic evening. Not only did Khun Chatree offer excellent drink recommendations but his attentiveness and personal touch really elevated our experience. We thought we are only staying for a quick drink after our massage at The Barai Hua Hin, we ended up having several cocktails and snacks, highly recommend the salt and pepper squid. The stunning views and relaxing vibe were magical however Khun's hospitality made our visit truly memorable. We'll definitely will return, see you next year Khun Chatree.
