if I had to be picky, maybe having the bar open slightly later would be nice. there was nights where I’d have liked a beer by the pool and sea

perfect stay. the hotel was spotless, the staff brilliant. little things such as the app for room service and talking to reception really elevated it to a true 5* experience.

Very very minor point - small complementary bottles of mosquito repellent body spray would have been a nice touch. There were a number of power outages which affected plumbing in the room so a backup generator that could provide redundancy in the system would have been better. Sadly evident not a lot of businesses survived COVID so not a lot to do in the area around hotel, however again this is a minor point.

The hotel is beautiful with every requirement already met, or met upon asking. The staff couldn’t be more happy to help. The room was a great size, very clean with air conditioning and a very comfy bed and pillow set. As someone with poor sleep usually I slept very well. The food was excellent and very tasty, tad expensive for Thailand but then you are in a 5* resort so it was expected and the quality of the food and service made up for it.

Our experience in SALA was overwhelmingly great, with no significant complaint whatsoever. If I had to nitpick: - The beach water right in front of the resort has a few rocks, so not really swimmable. You have to walk literally just 20 meters/20 seconds to get to the nice part of the beach. Not a complaint at all, but worth knowing. - The restaurant (in the evening) is excellent but I didn't find it to be mind-blowing. The green mango salad was great, however. - The business next to the Resort sometimes plays terrible elevator music in the afternoon. Not a problem, but I could have done without it. Not SALA's responsibility at all. - The Resort provides mosquito nets, which are very helpful, but no mosquito repellent (if I remember correctly), so just make sure to bring some.

I stayed at SALA for a week with my partner. We were looking for a comfortable and aesthetic resort for a relaxing beach holiday. We booked the SALA Pool Villa. The room and the resort more than met our expectations, and we had a wonderful stay in SALA. Note: We went as things were slowly starting to open up again (spring 2022), with fewer tourists than usual. - The Resort: Magnificent with a clean, minimal yet luxurious design, and a fresh vibe. The aesthetic is consistent throughout the resort, which is fairly big, yet intimate. Beautiful trees. - The Pool Villa: Perfect for two. The bed was big and comfortable. The room was perfectly clean. The high ceiling gave a nice sense of space. The outdoors bathroom and shower were a plus. - The Pool: Great. We didn't use it very often but we did not regret booking it. It added to the sense of space and comfort. The review complaining about banana leaves falling into the pool is utterly ridiculous. The banana trees around the pool are glorious. - The Staff: Friendly and attentive. Great check-in experience and service. There is an object that you can put on the room door if you wish not to be disturbed. - Breakfast: Excellent with good portions (2 dishes) - the "croissant" I believe (more of a pain perdu) is spectacular. - Location: The resort is located on a public beach*. The beach is cute, the water warm/clean, and the sand nice. There are quite a few businesses on the beach (hotels, restaurants, bars, massage places), so it is a bit lively. There are enough things to do so you do not get bored. Glorious sunsets. We did not really leave the beach. An older man makes the best chicken skewers on the beach. *We went during Covid, so it wasn't too busy. Found the perfect balance between calm and not-boring. Post-Covid, it might have been a bit too busy for what we were looking for, but we haven't experienced it during those times, so we can't judge.

more fans at breakfast could be good but that’s it

lovely pool garden villa just for us. staff were super friendly and very attentive. the beach is literally 5 steps away from the restaurant area. right in between two cool villages - 10min taxi and the hotel app on the phone was genius!!!!

Nothing to complain honestly.

Overall perfect stay. We had one of the pool villas and I can absolutely recommend the same. Breakfast was also really nice especially the several dishes you could order in addition to the buffet. Beach was nice and clean and we had a really relaxing time.

If I was being really picky sometimes the service in the restaurant could be a bit slow. However the beach/pool waiter was excellent.

Fantastic beach location with two excellent pools - one a kids pool and the other an adult pool. We found the breakfast and dinner also to be very good. The room was also very nice and we got upgraded to a private pool.
