    Edit: the concerns were noted and I was told we’re communicated to the owner. I guess we’ll see now it they update the rooms! Really disappointed with this visit, it seems they’ve done zero maintenance since I was here two years ago. It’s a lovely spot, but for the price, the rooms really need to be better maintained and updated. Is it really that hard to paint the rooms every year, wash the pillows, fix the broken curtains etc? This is not a 4 star hotel, as that implies a certain level of service and quality, sorely lacking this time around! I always loved coming here because despite a challenge here or there, the client service was always tip top, and they managed issues well and appropriately. Not this time around. And the restaurant which was impeccable has totally gone downhill. My dinner of fish and risotto was inedible. At least they didn’t charge me. So let’s see…we arrived and someone came out to comment on my parking, but didn’t help us with our bags. At checkin, there was one family checking in…but we had to wait 25 min to checkin bc there was only one person working, who also took them to their room, so we had to wait despite the other 5 employees milling about. There was no manager or any other staff around, and we were given no apology, please be patient etc. We get to the room, which is dirty - stains on the table, stains on the doors and walls, stains on the walls behind the bed…as I mentioned zero maintenance. Also bugs in the corners. Oh and no wifi - you can only consistently get internet at the restaurant (which is fine but seems like something to mention at checkin). Perhaps worst of all, our room kept having baisse de tension. I thought it was the whole hotel, but looks like it was only our room. This is a lot of things to go wrong in a $300+ /night room…with not a single apology or any proposed compensation. This place used to do better and be better.

    Very beautiful place to stay in Senegal, nearby Dakar, and very nice facilities. Poor services compared to the hotel standards: waiters complaining of their salaries regarding the religious feast, front desk looking very unhappy (specially at the checkout time and no luggage service, no thank you, no good buy, …), nice restaurant but poor breakfast (quality and quantity), no sing of existing management or supervisors.

    Second stay in this beautiful paradise. Full of nature, birds and views. Far away from urban noise and worries. Good service (moving slowly to excellent). Excellent restaurant. Relaxing pool…

    Beautiful, the menu is very classic (nice but no surprise). The view and the pool are fabulous. Too bad they don't accept pets.

    Beautiful place ! A hidden nature sanctuary not far from Dakar.Delicious food and good service. Managers are very accommodating. We have gone there several times and have recommended the place to our friends and family members. I just wished it was a bit less expensive.

    Excellent spot for quiet vacations ! Rooms are really nice and food is excellent. Staff is always friendly and helping. Its located in a natural reserve and you can even spot some birds at a lake. The beach is about 30 mn walk. But you will be rewarded with an absolutely non-touristic beach with a little restsurant on it where you can hang out the day. A little walk further you can go to the touristic Somone bay if you like to find vendors passing every 10 minutes trying to sell you something. This lodge is far better than any big hotel !

    Beautiful place!!! The pool is great (as youcan see by the pictures), the personel always smiling, the hosts really nice. We stayed only a night but wish we stayed longer. The room was clean, the AC worked perfectly....honestly we have nothing bad to say about our stay. Nearby, there's also a nice wood pontoon that cuts through the mangroves, and a bit further a wild beach. Thanks again to the Manguiers' team!

    It was difficult to get there. But we loved staying there. The stuff was friendly. It was a good place to be. But they'll need to get more extra child bed for the families.

    People were very friendly and a good vibe Would suggest to have extra child bed when traveling with a baby

👍👍 Avery exceptional experience. It's the concept of the "zoo safari", which I don't love, but instead you stay in your room/lodge and the animals (giraffe, impala, etc) wonder around. Having breakfast on the terrace enjoying this view was great!

😐 The decor is beautiful, there are majestic trees, many birds. Perfect for late risers. Don't expect to have your breakfast before 8:45-9am. On the other hand, the location where you have breakfast is opposite the car park.
