Skønt autentisk og roligt

Skønneste lille sted bygget op omkring et kæmpe Baobab træ - deraf navnet. Hyggeligt værelse med direkte adgang til pool. Strand i kort gåafstand. Fin restaurant med godt udvalg. Rigtig god morgenmad. Utrolig venligt personale. Meget autentisk. Kan virkelig anbefale hvis man ønsker ro. Vi boede her i 2 dage. Familie på 4.

Un véritable cocon de tranquillité

Nous avons passé un séjour de 4 jours à l'Hôtel Baobab Africa Lodge et c'était une expérience exceptionnelle. Le personnel était accueillant, serviable et toujours souriant. Les propriétaires se sont montrés aux petits soins, créant une atmosphère chaleureuse. L'emplacement, niché au cœur de la forêt, offre un véritable cocon de tranquillité, tout en étant à seulement 5 minutes de la plage. Le restaurant propose une cuisine entièrement faite maison, délicieuse, avec des smoothies particulièrement savoureux. Une adresse à recommander sans hésitation.
