Food and drink at The Sarojin

Hotel restaurant
The Sarojin has two. The Edge is a cosy seafood shack where you can enjoy seaviews and sand underfoot. Amid the hanging roots of the enormous fig tree, Ficus fuses international cuisine with spicy oriental flavours. If you really want to push the boat out, arrange a sunset cruise on the Lady Sarojin, followed by candlelit dinner for two on your own private island.
- Dress code Chilled to perfection.
- Top table Humidity-haters should head indoors at Ficus for air-conditioned respite. Incurable romantics should take advantage of the private barbecue that the Sarojin can arrange anywhere in the resort.
- Last orders The restaurants stop serving at 10pm; the bar stays open as long as you're in there.
- Hotel bar Tucked under the fig tree, the open-air Cellar Bar plies guests with wine and cigars. Make sure you get to sample a sparkling Champagne Sarojin cocktail.

All suites offer plenty of space and are decorated in simple and soothing white and warm woods. The huge bathrooms are an unexpected pleasure: the oval terazzo couple's bath tub set on a pebbled floor adds a relaxing garden feel.
Packing tips
The hotel can provide mountain bikes, kayaks and windsurfing kit – all you need to remember are sturdy shoes, stay-on swimwear and a taste for adventure.
Also
The Sarojin has a full-time ‘imagineer’ who can put together a personalised itinerary for your stay, including elephant treks, scuba, deep-sea fishing and a host of other activities, ranging from simple sightseeing to white-knuckle thrills.
From the Guestbook…
The Sarojin has an additional area on the beach that is more secluded than that directly in front of the hotel. Turn right onto the beach... it's a lovely five-minute walk and you ...
