Les hôtes étaient très accueillants et nous avons passés un séjour agréable.

Hele leuke plek. Mar en George zijn erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Lekker avondeten en ontbijt. Veel excursiemogelijkheden. Basic, maar nette kamers. Ideaal voor met kinderen te gaan, vermits ze veel spelletjes hebben.

Mooi, levendig eiland. Tof plekje om te logeren. Gastvrouw is heel behulpzaam. Lekker eten.

Niets. Alles in orde.

We loved our stay in Mar Lodje and we were looking for a very cozy and local atmosphere. One of the reasons that I booked were the lovely reviews about the food and I could not have chosen a better place. Breakfast was very basic like the other places we stayed in Senegal (we usually buy fruits to add in our meals) but lunch and dinner were yummy yummy. I loved the small charming details during each meal. Muito obrigada!!! Highly recommend that you do the tour with the local guide - it was nice to know the history and traditions of Mar Lodje. We missed the service of the Catholic Church on Sunday but if you can book your stay to be there - looks amazing!

Nothing really to say about the stay. In June it was a bit hot during the day but it is was fine. The beach is just a couple of minutes away from the house and a good swim in the summer is the best thing to do!!

very clean, friendly hosts

We spent three great days in the Sine Saloum, Abdou and Mar’s place is a perfect place to explore the region and relax

Very nice place in the beaitiful Mar Lodj with friendly owners. Our favorite part was food, we had 2 dinners and a lunch, and they were all super delicious.

Mar and her husband Abdou are great hosts who really make you feel welcome from the heart! We stayed for a whole week with them and felt like being at home :) They provide you with all the info you need and organize a smooth transport from Dakar to their place for the guests (if needed) at a fair price. Mar Lodj is a great chance to experience real Senegalese country side life and the Sahel. It is an island in the river delta and the four villages on the island are well worth visiting. Many excursions and activities are possible and all can be organized by Mar and her family and nice bathing spots on the river-delta (good for swimming in clean water!) can be reached in only a few minutes. The accomodation provides full board if you like and always has cool drinks at hand which is great in the often hot climate in the afternoon. Nguel du Saloum is built with in traditional courtyard style with has a cozy feeling - so lying in one of the hammocks or on a sofa in the open air living room in the shade is just great any time! Solar panels insure constant power supply and we highly respect the effort Mar and Abdou went/go through in order to supply such a nice accomodation in a place where supply of goods and infrastructure can be really limited at times! (transport on the island is by horse-carriage (great!) as there are no roads (wonderful, no car horns, no traffic fumes and jams!) - just to give you an idea ) Thanks again for everything, Mar and Abdou and we hope that many more people find their way to your wonderful place! It is really worth visiting and we truly hope to come back again to see you again at Nguel du Saloum in the future (with "el musculator" of course :)!
