A very beautiful resort with great rooms. Everything was perfect but the food was average or below average. It’s also a pity that the wine is so bad that it’s undrinkable.

We loved our stay. Many simple choices to suit everyone. The beach is absolutely beautiful, pools are also a great choice to relax. Food is really good. Loved the various choices of fresh fruit and there is even a really cute small shop with very nice souvenirs. Perfect stay! Will definitely go back :)

Very modern property with many amenities for a comfortable stay. There have been more than 3 times where the electricity went out for a short time. With respect to A/C it is centralized, therefore not providing the customer with an option to increase or decrease the temperature. Beside these nuisance I had a wonderful stay short of five star service. I’ll visit again !

The hotel itself is beautiful but the food could not be any worse. I actually got food poisoning on the second day of this trip because of how bad it was. If you are cultured at all, you will not enjoy the food. The room was nice, views were nice, but food is too important. After day 2, I just stopped eating. I heard it’s still new so hopefully they can resolve this.

Average at Best! Front Desk: lacks adequate English speaking service agents. I understand it's located in a foreign country, but there should be at least one multilingual personnel on duty during each shift. Buffet: plenty of section but lacks quality. Restuarants: This was truly a shock. Each specialty restaurant is basically the buffet on a smaller scale. There is no a la carte menu. There is no need to visit or waste time making a reservation. Just go to the buffet. The grill chicken by the pool was actually not bad and made up for the lack luster lunch buffet selections. Rooms: The rooms were clean, and housekeeping was adequate. They can provide better quality towels. The towels are very small and thin. You will need to request additional towels. You're better off getting fresh towels from the pool to use for your evening showers and then exchanging them the next day. The Pool: The pool with the bar can get very crowded but there are other pools that are enjoyable and not crowded. The beach: nothing to write home about. It's a small stretch. If you walk up further out, the beach has litter everywhere. The water had seaweed but was enjoyable but not the best. If you're looking to cut calories and drop a few pounds, this is the place for you!! Overall, just try another beach resort that is located in Saly.

This hotel is on a lovely beach about 90 minutes outside of Dakar. It’s a new property with great amenities. The buffet had a lot of variety and food was good. There were a lot of activities from water yoga to kayaking to peddle boats. The beach was very swim able with gentle waves. I wanted to acknowledge Erica at the front desk for fantastic service.

This property sees very few Americans so the language barrier was very tough, but overall I thought the staff was quite rude. Translations took a few tries to understand and at one point the tour desk mocked me. I wanted to sit by the window during dinner but I had to move because as one person I wasn’t allowed to sit at a table for 4 even though it was not crowded and was told to move. Some of the staff were kind but many were dismissive. The room was ok, it was pretty hot and we didn’t have much control over the AC, the shower took a while to warm up. The food was the biggest complaint, but all inclusive usually has bad food. We were even more disappointed to find out the two restaurants that required reservations were also buffets. My last straw was, at the store we bought snacks for our upcoming flight back, and after purchasing many items and about the leave the lady had the audacity to ask me if I had bought the fan that I already came in the store with. As a Black American the last place I thought I would be accusing of stealing would be Africa. Honestly, I found the European guests kinder than the staff. Unfortunate, but I don’t understand how this would ever be considered a 5 star hotel.
