    After traveling in 90+ countries I can tell you this was one of my top five accommodation experiences, one that I will remember for life. Going to Gorée is a once-in-a-lifetime special experience, and it was made even more memorable by Eric and his wonderful family. I felt so welcome in this beautiful place, and the meals I ate were superb. It was peaceful and tranquil, and the location on Gorée is truly great. And what makes it so memorable is the incredible devotion to all the details as well as the love they have for their property and their guests. Highest recommendation!

    Gorée is a beautiful island near Dakar, kissed by the shining sun that makes you stay so wistful and romantic. It was a pleasure to spend time there. Only a few issues with the place where I sojourned. Cockroaches in the room. The owner said that it happens in rooms where people love eating inside( we haven't ever done it!). By the way, they provided an insecticide. The water in the shower was cold, most of the time. When I switched on the boiler, the owner called me from the upper floor (scolding me as if I were her daughter) telling me that the power had gone out due to the boiler being turned on. Maybe when it is night or early morning should be warmest. Anyway, nothing is truly unacceptable in life!

    It was the best accommodation I've had in Senegal for one and a half month. Very beautiful building, very clean and exceptional hospitality.

    (Translated by Google) The best accommodation on the island! Our stay was short, more than enough to feel the local “Teranga”. Éric received us in the best possible way. Mama prepared us a breakfast with the best bread in the world. She prepared a fruit cocktail for Rita who is a vegetarian. We were very pleased with the cleanliness of the rooms and the space. Everything perfect. Thanks to the team and the Amazing Teranga Travel Agency for organizing the trip. (Original) O melhor alojamento da ilha! A nossa estadia foi curta, mais o suficiente para sentir a “Teranga” local. O Éric nos recebeu de melhor forma possível. A mama nos preparou um pequeno almoço com o melhor pão do mundo. Ela preparou um cocktail de fruta para a Rita que é vegetariana. Ficamos muito satisfeito com a limpeza dos quartos e o espaço. Tudo perfeito. Obrigado a equipa e a Agência de Viagens Amazing Teranga pela organização da viagem.

    The proprietor Eric and Kuna are the sweetest couple ever with their lovely daughter Emma and son Isa. The building is authentic remnant of those dark days. Made shift into their abode and rooms for guest.

    (Translated by Google) A little paradise in the Paradise Island that is Goree Island. Comfortable, spotless and safe. The staff is amazingly nice and helpful. Much better and cheaper than most hotels in Dakar. Easily and rapidly accessible by ferry. Goree is well worth an overnight stay. Or more. I ended up staying four nights at Chez Eric and really hope I'll be able to come back. A small paradise in the paradise island of Gorée. Comfortable, impeccable cleanliness and total security. The owners are surprisingly warm and efficient. Much cheaper than most hotels in Dakar. Easily and quickly accessible by ferry. Gorée really deserves to spend the night there, or more. I ended up spending four nights at Eric's and I really hope I can come back. (Original) A little paradise in the Paradise Island that is Goree Island. Comfortable, spotless and safe.

Les propriétaires sont étonnamment chaleureux et efficaces. Bien meilleur marché que la plupart des hôtels de Dakar. Facilement et rapidement accessible par ferry. Gorée mérite vraiment que l’on y passe la nuit, ou plus. J’ai finalement passé quatre nuits chez Eric et j’espère vraiment pouvoir y revenir.

    (Translated by Google) The service and friendliness of the owner. Sleep on the island of Gorée, a quiet place without a car. The size and cleanliness of the rooms. Air conditioning what a treat. Full breakfast. (Original) Le service et la gentillesse du propriétaire. Dormir sur l’île de Gorée, un lieu calme sans voiture. La taille et la propreté des chambres. La climatisation quel régal. Le petit déjeuner complet.

    Die Zimmer sind klein muffig und dunkel. Es kann nicht wirklich gelüftet werden. Die Moskitonetze sind so schlecht, dass die Türe nicht zum Lüften geöffnet werden kann. Der Service ist nicht wirklich vorhanden und das Frühstück ist mickrig. Der Innenhof ist sehr gemütlich um zu verweilen. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist eine Frechheit. (Translated by Google) The rooms are small musty and dark. It can't really be aired. The mosquito nets are so bad that the door cannot be opened for ventilation. The service is not really there and the breakfast is measly. The courtyard is very cozy to linger. The value for money is a joke.

    This is such a lovely place. The staff were awesome and got us a guide for the museum. The rooms were large and comfortable. I loved the courtyard and the upstairs breakfast area. It had a very chill and comfortable vibe.

    We had such a wonderful time staying here. Very clean and comfortable rooms. Hot showers. Beautiful sun deck and courtyard and very comfortable areas to sit. A lovely haven in Gore island. Eric and his wife are lovely and very accommodating. You can get lovely cold beer from the shop attached to the hotel. Cannot recommend enough

    This is a small accommodation set around a lovely garden courtyard less than 10 minutes from the port. Our room in the garden area was large, with a comfortable bed, a/c, a fan, a sitting area, wi-fi and excellent staff. There is a petit dejeuner of fruit, breads and confiture on the upper terrace. And, there is a shop connected that has whatever you might need.

    Wonderful and calm place. Eric and his wife are great hosts and served one of the best breakfasts that we have had in Senegal.
