In 1934, Elis Ellis took over the restaurant. Elis Ellis was a well-known actor in Stockholm and had a large network of contacts among theatre people and celebrities. Under Elis Ellis' rule, operations grew in Orbaden and the site became a watering hole for the big city's cultural elite. The parties relieved each other.

There were those who thought Orbaden had become too liberated a place. In particular, the Church urged resistance in the 1940s, arguing that Orbaden had become a "nest of sin." Especially the baths upset. Two-piece swimsuits were used, which was prohibited by law, in addition to nude baths. It got to the point where the county sheriff had to investigate. However, he chose to look through his fingers and let the festivities continue. He even went so far as to make an exception and allowed both full- and half-nosed baths in Orbaden, an exception that only applied elsewhere in the country. Orbaden became one of the great Swedish tourist magnets.

Everything was rebuked for the tourists. Ellis expanded and started running boarding houses. He built a slide from the slope below the restaurant straight into the lake. Every week there were several concerts and sing-along evenings, and on Wednesdays and Saturdays there was dancing. A rest cottage and a viewing tower were built on Åsberget. On the beach, coffee was served and the villagers went and sold long milk and sandwiches to the sunbathers. Orbaden was at all a festive place to spend your holiday. There were at most three restaurants, three guest houses and five kiosks in Orbaden, in addition to the restaurant.
