As much as traveling in and of itself is an experience, people are trying to take those experiences to the next level as with the [Cloud 9](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pantone-x-mandarin-oriental) bar. Located in [Fiji](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rosie-travel) just off the coast of Australia, it is located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, thus providing a [floating platform](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/floating-river-cabin) that can accommodate 100 persons capacity.

Surrounded by turquoise waters and an overall incredible tropical scene, the Cloud 9 bar boasts an internationally stocked bar as well as a Italian wood-fired pizzeria. As written on the website, "This unique venue has surround sound system throughout, sun decks, hanging chairs and day beds. Cloud 9 is built with precision and creativity giving you an experience like no other!" People will appreciate the change of pace.
