HOME AWAY FROM HOME The place to be. Thos staff are simply out of this world . We have never experienced such soft ,genuine staff who takes the pleasure and time of chatting about the culture about how fond they are working for SALT ! It all start from the manager Rishi who guides you to the extraordinary journey of SALT and it's cultural,historical yet sustainable happenings . We missed the festival of lights some weeks ago but the way the SALT Team talked about how it was celebrated at the hotel ,we are planning to spend 2026 dipawali with them. The hotel is super clean , cozy ,colourful ,well set with great views from the entrance . Even one of the restroom is ocean view ! We highly recommend the hotel for their impeccable service , the unique staff ,the stunning location and it's sustainability projects where nearby villagers earn their living with their produce . Don't miss out on making SALT your next place to visit .

MY FAVOURITE HOME Wow , what an amazing place ! The moment you step in ,you really feel this place is special . You just can't get away from that entrance ocean view ! But the staff - just too good. They makes you feel part of their home with their genuine sense of welcoming . That's why I celebrated my engagement ,pre wedding and wedding at this amazing hotel . The location is stunning with the Roof Top Bar being my favourite as the view is our of this world but also the service from Bhavish is just excellent . This guy shows passion and 200% happiness in the way he prepare and serves his own made cocktails . The Pool Bar drinks were from Vish & Fayaaz both amazing gentlement and really catered for us during our time . Another highlight is the food which is super tasty with only local ingredients and all are home made . We can't get enough of the chevrette croquette . The room ,the famous Bang Beach is stunningly beautiful and the view + comfort + local amenities shouldn't be described but rather you should still mply be there to experience it. We believe SALT shouldn't be talked about but it should be experienced. As they rightly say it's as if you are going to your friends place as there is no formalities paperwork's and super sustainable without plastic as they also work for local community with buying their produce directly from local farmers . Meet Mr. Rishi ,the incharge and he makes magic with his sense of welcoming and meeting you to tailor-made your stay as you want it. Highly recommend and we are missing SALT already . Shall come soon.

For many years my wife and I have been fortunate enough to travel to many different countries and cities throughout Europe and beyond. We have also stayed at many beautiful hotels in various Caribbean islands. Despite some wonderful holiday experiences we have not posted a Trip Advisor review for many years. Our experiences at Salt of Palmar have changed all of that !! We spent 10 days at the hotel in November last year. We enjoyed it so much that we returned for two weeks in October this year. We booked an all inclusive package on both occasions. At this wonderful place you will always be greeted with courtesy and a smile, coupled with truly exceptional personal service and genuine hospitality. At Salt of Palmar the staff are the stars. The rooms are maintained to an excellent standard. All common areas are spotless and it is abundantly clear that the delivery of high standards in every department of the hotel trickles down seamlessly from a team of highly motivated and skilled managers. There are so many exceptional staff members that it would be churlish to name too many individuals. We did not encounter one weak link among the countless staff members with whom we engaged. Despite this, we feel duty bound to mention two individuals, both of whom were involved in the delivery of some of the most delicious and innovative food which we have ever tasted in a holiday hotel. The entire eating experience at Salt of Palmar is led by Executive Chef Shiva. His skill as a chef is matched only by his endearing modesty. The hotel’s in-house bakery is one of his most unique creations . Guests are greeted at breakfast every morning by the unique smell of freshly baked bread, croissants and countless other goodies. Wonderful breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner are available every day. The range and quality of food is quite simply outstanding and there is not a buffet in sight. All meals are served at table. The culinary masterpiece comes at the Tek Tek restaurant where you can experience a delicious six course meal, lovingly created by Chef Shiva and prepared in your presence by the wonderful and courteous Chef Ravi. Our meal at Tek Tek, with paired wines, was one of our favourite eating experiences at any time anywhere !! We will always remember it and hope to repeat it during our next visit. We cannot recommend this remarkable hotel highly enough. Anyone who is lucky enough to visit this beautiful place will enjoy the experience, will be sorry to leave and will want to return. An exceptional hotel with wonderfully dedicated staff.
