● Café Cuto: A contemporary take on the classic European coffee bar, Cafe Cuto
will blend old-world charm with modern sophistication. This upscale coffee shop
will invite guests to savor specialty coffees while engaging with knowledgeable
baristas in a warm and inviting atmosphere. Guests will be able to pair high-quality
brew with a selection of pastries and sandwiches for takeaway or indulge in
intimate coffee tasting experiences. The café’s design will feature elegant

golden light, Komodo transports patrons to a one-of-a-kind getaway – right from
