Personal Narrative-Salty In Milos
Salty in Milos

“It's so bright here” I said to Stavros, the Manager at “Salt” on Milos, a Greek island in the Cyclades. He was walking me to my room and I was squinting my eyes overlooking the sun glancing over the ocean on one side and the white suites on the other, feeling pure bliss before even putting down my backpack.

The Island
Milos is one of the biggest islands in the Cyclades, covering 150 square km.
With only 5000 people living there, it still feels pretty peaceful.
There aren't many tourists there (compared to the surrounding islands) and I decided it was a perfect stopover on my way to Santorini.
Milos is famous for it's clear waters and great beaches, and as you know, that's all I ask from an island.

Painting the houses white, obviously also helps with the temperature.

I loved that Salt used these design features by building white cubic houses but then added cute details to create a unique modern atmosphere.

The Room

Guys, I literally didn't leave my terrace the entire day I arrived.
Apart from two nice seating areas, which would have been large enough for a whole family, I actually had my own jacuzzi overlooking the ocean!

The suite itself (I had the Provatas suite) had yet another seating area, a cozy bedroom, a small kitchen area and a bathroom.
I especially loved the bed facing the terrace doors, which meant I woke up to this view.

The little things

Breakfast in bed
Breakfast at Salt is served in your room, you simply choose something the night before and the next morning you'll find this basket in front of your door.
I loved not having to get ready to go to a breakfast room and simply sitting on my own terrace in my pyjamas!

Internet
I'm currently uploading this post while watching netflix!
At Salt, each Suite has its own wifi, meaning you don't have to share with your neighbours downloading

From the passage of the bedroom, which is filled with 18th century prints of Raphael's decoration, to the soft cornice of the ceiling that is engraved with a light leaf shape and accompanied by a rose.

    Four years ago, my family and I landed on the most beautiful island, the Bahamas, it was unbelievable. It was an amazing feeling getting to see and experience all the things that were in the Bahamas. At the hotel, that we reserved, they had an amazing buffet at dinner time. They had different types of seafood that I have never tried before. The bathrooms were enormous, it had a shower on the side and a tub in the middle of the bathroom.

    We rented a secluded cabin in the Gatlinburg, TN as close to the top of the mountain as we could get for all the remarkable sights. We had never rented a cabin before and was not quite sure what to expect. It was a three story, old looking cabin, which it didn't look like three stories because it was built into the side of the mountain. From the outside it didn't look like much but when we opened the door, it took our breath away. The interior was all hardwood! As you walk through the door, you are in the old, fully furninshed with everything but food, country kitchen and dining area. Looking forward are two sets of stairs, one going up and one going down. The stairs going up went to two beautiful luxury suites, with a full bath including a jaccuzi tub in each and a balcony over looking the mountains. The stairs going down was the living area. In it included a pool table for the kids to enjoy, and a balcony with a hot tub for the "adults" to enjoy! It also contained a pull out sofa, large flat screen tv, love seat, full bathroom, and laundry room. It was so beautiful on the inside, we had to pinch ourselves…

    We arrived in Los Angeles, California. The hotel we stayed in was one of the best hotels I've ever been in. This hotel was so big and fancy, and the weight room that was there was bigger than the fitness center back home. This hotel also had two pools. The outdoor pool looked really beautiful, because it had a giant water fall leading into the pool, but it was closed down while we were was staying there, so I just used the normal everyday hotel pool, which was indoors. It was very incredible to see something like this on how beautiful a single hotel could be, and look.…
