Outstanding culinary experiences are what crown a vacation. But can you top perfect creations? You can. Namely with a special setting. Whether in the open air, with a view of the sights or surrounded by the lush greenery of a tropical jungle: these 5 dinner spots will make your heart beat faster:


Belmond Cipriani, Venice/Italy

It is not the only restaurant with a Michelin star in the lagoon city - but certainly one with a unique view. Dining on the terrace of the Oro restaurant in the legendary Hotel Belmond Cipriani means dining with a view of Venice, as the Oro is located on the Guidecca. Over 1,000 labels are stored in the wine cellar, while Michelin-starred chef Davide Bisetto wields the spoon. www.belmond.com/it/hotels/europe/italy/venice/belmond-hotel-cipriani/oro-restaurant


Restaurant 360, Dubrovnik/Croatia

The view is simply priceless, as is the atmosphere. The 360 Restaurant is located in the historic fortifications of Dubrovnik. Guests sit on the centuries-old city walls of the fortress with a panoramic view of the harbor. A mix of traditional French cuisine and modern Adriatic cuisine is served by Croatia's best chef, Marijo Curić.

Banyan Tree, Krabi/Thailand

The finest Thai fusion cuisine in an extraordinary setting: this is what guests at the Bird's Nest in the new Banyan Tree Krabi can look forward to. They dine high above the coast of the Andaman Sea, surrounded by the lush nature of the national parks. The individual tables are housed in bird's nest-like pods connected by narrow walkways.

However, Baros, which has been voted the "most romantic resort in the world" several times in a row, offers a particularly cozy setting for a sunset dinner on the piano deck in the middle of the sea. In keeping with the location, excellent cuisine with a focus on seafood is served. www.baros.com
