We left early due to our discomfort

From the website, La Villa Serere should be a lovely stay but what we found in the comfort apartment was a dirty bathroom with broken furniture, broken outdoor kitchen and broken generator as our view. The villa kitchen is filthy and covered in bugs that the staff was sending breakfast out of. Being so close to the airport and a newer construction this place should be fabulous but it clearly lacks good management on its upkeep. The pool area is nice and looks like the pictures and is pretty much it's only saving grace. It reminded us of staying in a dilapidated motel from the 1950's in America. Popenguine is a lovely place, you should totally visit and you deserve a nice stay!

Stay So Nice & Conveniently Near Airport, Returned

The stay at La Villa Serere was extremely pleasant. Nestled in the heart of Thies Region, this eco-friendly property boasts natural beauty equipped with a pool, restaurant on site, beach access, and friendly property caretakers that ensure that the stay at the property is both memorable and enjoyable. Even Airport transfer can be arranged by contacting the property in advance. Only suggestion is to possibly have also a menu or guidebook in English as everything is in French and needed to be physically translated. Overall wonderful stay!

Dakar

The location is much closer to the airport than driving into Dakar especially if it’s a layover and a flight out the next morning. There wasn’t any hot water for a shower but didn’t attempt to ask why after I was already in the shower.However, staff was friendly and prompt pickup from the airport.

I never checked into this hotel. This hotel is supposed to be 9 miles away from the airport and it took us over an hour to get to it. The place was very dark and there was NOTHING around, it was located at a dead end. This place is so remote that the taxi driver had no knowledge of how to find this place. I opted not to check in and had to go and find another hotel. It was around 10PM, I'm traveling with a 7yr old and was not even sure if we could get dinner at a place that was so remote. I think that this place should be classified as something else. If I wanted to go hiking or doing nature type activities, then maybe. I wanted a comfortable safe place with some food and based on what I saw in the area, I am not sure they could have given me that. I've stayed at other hotels from your site and even if not great, I did not opt out of checking in. This was not a good experience.
