Kitschy beaches and dream views are just two of the many reasons to finally take the twelve-hour flight from Europe to Mauritius. With its concept, the SALT of Palmar delivers at least one more thing.
The SALT of Palmar in Mauritius is the Disneyland of design lovers. This is the place for people who are looking for individuality, even from afar, and for whom luxury has nothing to do with marble floors and gold-plated taps. Mauritian architect Jean Francois Adam, together with French designer Camille Walala, has wielded pencil and compass and transformed the existing complex into a Pop masterpiece. Turquoise blue meets pink, yellow and orange in such a clever combination that the dream beach and ocean view become a minor matter. Everywhere you look, you will also encounter local products: from the handmade ceramics to the natural care products made on the island, whose fragrance envelops you like the certainty of finally finding peace in this resort. The latter is also provided by the SALT Equilibrium, the hotel’s spa, whose salt-based treatments will make even the most stressed vacationer smile so blissfully that the sun will fade away. The motto of the SALT of Palmar: Mauritius is not just a destination, but a home. The hotel brings guests and locals together at every turn: whether it’s fishing in the morning, cooking traditional dishes or basket weaving and pottery. In addition, convertibles and bicycles are always available to explore the island and its culture on your own with the best tips from the hotel staff.
SALT of Palmar
There are 59 rooms with a view of the sea or the garden, a 25-meter-long pool, countless meters of beach and unlimited hectoliters of seawater. The SALT of Palmar is the right place for design lovers and beach freaks for whom a hotel offers more than just a place to stay. Locality is particularly important here, as it is not only the design that comes from Mauritius, but also the materials used and the food that is served on the plates, which are also handmade in Mauritius. Every day, SALT serves up whatever the fields and sea have to offer, as well as growing many products on its own farm, which not only employs locals but also trains them in agriculture.
