SaltVilla

The café in front of the hotel may be the best on the island. Wherever I am staying, even if it is not SaltVilla, I go there almost every morning to gaze at the ocean and plan my day. Picture it: your morning coffee, a cooling breeze, swaying palms, and an endless azure ocean stretched out in front of you. There are moments when even the book stays closed.

The rooms have everything you need: air conditioning, a fan, a fridge and a bathroom. Nothing particularly dazzles, but I don't think anything will disappoint you either — simply a peaceful place to sleep. One possible drawback: a nearby construction site, if work is going on there (which happens for a few hours every few days).

The location has another attraction: the hotel is at the western end of the main beach, close to another tucked-away little beach where peace and quiet reign. Where is that beach? You will find out when you get there, but you will have to look, because few people know it (of course I am not giving it away here 😉).

Bring your large memory card, because you will take hundreds of sunset photos. Every evening, right from the beach in front of the hotel, the magnificent sun shows you how it goes to sleep. A real performance in orange and gold that never gets old.
