The food was amazing. Beautiful grounds and nice staff.

I do wish that fruit was available with breakfast but it was delicious

Exceptionally clean. Quiet. Nice swimming pool and lounge chairs with plenty of shade.

The owners are so lovely and helpful. We don't speak french so they helped us with a lot of planning of tours and transport which we really needed, couldn't ask for a more hospitable stay. Our room was really clean and spacious, with the bed comfortable. The garden is lovely and in general really pleasant to be in. We ended up staying 3 nights instead of 1. Really great value.

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.

I liked everything about Fathala Wildlife Reserve. The tented room was large, quiet, clean and very comfortable. The A/C worked well, and I paid for a router in the room to have excellent WiFi connections. I loved the outdoor shower, and the peace and serenity of the setting.

It was an amazing stay. The breakfast was amazing. Everyone was so kind. We arrived late and they were waiting for us. I highly recommend staying here!!
