Played golf today & the views we're incredible
Heavenly morning view from the bedroom. Kamalaya wellness resort is focused on wellness and holistic treatments from detoxing to yoga programs. Their approach is very personal. It has a beautiful beach where you can walk into the sea for 300 meters and still have the water up only to knee deep.
