- The first was to create an open-air expansive space encompassing the whole of the L’Alya Resort where everyone would feel a sense of peace, not only in the luxury accommodation but within the natural environment and stunning surroundings.
- The second was to ensure the local community was involved in establishing L'Alya Resort every step of the way from the authentic architecture to the sense of community that guests feel as soon as they step off the boat and onto the beach.
