My stay at Alaya was truly unforgettable! The hotel is beautifully designed, and the staff made me feel incredibly welcome throughout my visit. The location is perfect, right by the beach, and it was so nice to enjoy the sound of the waves while relaxing in my room. One small downside was that I initially found the garden apartment a bit disappointing due to the lack of a balcony. However, everything else was exceptional, with delicious food and a relaxing atmosphere.
