X2 River Kwai (x2resorts.com/resorts/river-kwai) has just unveiled six brand new industrial-chic floating cabins—and there's not a bamboo raft in sight. Perched on the surface of the Kwai Noi River, the new 65-sq-meter XFloat Cabins are made from environmentally-friendly rubberwood boards and come with fish tank-style floor-to-ceiling windows that look out over the calm Kanchanaburi countryside. 

An upper deck (dubbed the "moon deck") allows you to make the most of the clear, starry sky. Despite being on the water, the cabins aren't short on quality and share the same amenities as their land counterparts, including luxury bathtub, Bose soundsystem, Wi-Fi and premium king bed.

The six floating cabins join the resort's existing eight cabins. Rates start at B6,699 per night, inclusive of a daily breakfast. Other facilties include a riverfront infinity pool and library.
