SALT of Palmar 5* —
Do you love blue skies, pink sunsets and turquoise pools? The SALT of Palmar 5* is the ideal destination for you. This adults-only boutique hotel is set on the sands of a powdery-white beach with sublime views of the shimmering blue ocean. The hotel was designed by Camille Walala, who was inspired by the island. In collaboration with studio JFA, she created a boldly-styled hotel filled with furniture and art and made by local craftspeople.
You will find the hotel's unique look serene and calming, just as much as the SALT Equilibrium spa, where you can hydrate and detoxify. With the beautiful surroundings, five-star facilities, tasty restaurants and plush rooms, you are in for a truly relaxing and indulgent holiday.
