Pattaya’s cafe and beach club scene has grown well beyond the city’s reputation for nightlife and beaches. From Italian villa interiors to boho beachfront lounges, these are the spots locals and travelers actually photograph, not just the ones that rank for the keyword.
The most photographed cafes in Pattaya are Castello Di Bellagio (Italian villa), Seaweed Cafe (garden hideaway), Summer House (Bali-style beach club) and Under the Sun at Ana Anan (red sun-shaped installations on the beach).
