The grounds are so beautiful, the walking paths, sitting areas and pool. The food offered at the restaurant was really good. Would suggest to improve the bathrooms in the rooms, include shampoo and ensure hot water.

Amazing place

Amazing place. We were two girls in our 20s staying here at the end of our trip through Gambia and Senegal. It was by far the BEST place we have ever stayed. Beautiful location, wonderful staff and delicious food. Only a few minutes walk from the lake. The staff were very welcoming and allowed us to keep our suitcases there and arranged a taxi for us. Would love to return.
