Our stay at Salaya was absolutely magical! The ambiance, friendly service, and extraordinary diving experiences made it truly unforgettable. The only downside was the black sand beach, which felt a bit scruffy. Overall, though, the value for money and the luxurious feel of the penthouse made up for it, and we can't wait to return!
