I loved the comfortable huge mattress. The amazing shower. The layout for the rooms. The decent sized swimming pool. The food made by the chef. Standard lunch and three courses dinner. The view and access to the bolong.The staff were amazing. Ibrahima, Papa, Max and Fatou really made us feel at home. The kids loved it. My mom does not eat meat and salted food for health reasons and the chef accommodated that very well. Ibrahima facilitated the excursions. The staff was very warm and welcoming. The sitting-dining area/lounge gives a great view, plz ty if space to look at the view and play games with the kids. I really loved the place.

The property was recently renovated and the room was clean. The staff was incredibly (!) kind and helpful and the owner was very friendly as well. We enjoyed the garden with many different birds (birdwatching from the pool) and the delicious meal that was prepared for us. The boat tour arranged through the property was amazing. If you want to enjoy Toubakouta and not spend too much, I highly recommend this place!

Nice welcoming owner, nice breakfast with variety of choices, good towels, nice pool!great location.

This is a great place! The room was lovely as well as the beautiful garden. It is in a great part of Senegal , you feel like you are part of the village. The hosts are warm nice people ready to help with everything!

The place looks absolutelly great, we just loved it.

Céline's place is excellent - located in the fairly large village of Toubakouta, close to the border with the Gambia, and sitting right on the Sine Saloum Delta. The rooms are large and comfortable, equipped with Mosquito nets, showers and plenty of storage space. The atmosphere around the lodge is relaxed and comfortable, with communal spaces for sitting and chatting, playing games (also provided) and taking meals together. The food is also very good, with fresh bread from the local bakery, homemade jams, juices and yogurt and even some Korean options. There are numerous activities to take part in, easy to choose from from a 'a la carte' book (in Both English and French). This includes things like boats or kayaks in the Delta, guided tours of the region on foot or bike, as well as more surprising options like Tai Chi, African Drumming or lessons on cookery. We took part in a day-long trip with local guide Doudou (who is also excellent) on the water to some of the island and villages in the Delta, and it was fantastic as we got to lunch together with some local people in the Senegalese style. If you're not sure what you would like to do, there's Céline can also help guide you and many of the choices can be arranged at fairly short notice, meaning it's perfectly possible to show up with no plans and just take it from there. Finally, its also worth mentioning that Céline and her husband Gilles who run the Keur Niaye, are also well-known and clearly well respected within the community. They, and their staff, support a number of good causes across Toubakouta and the surrounding area.
