We celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary at the Africa Queen Hotel with over 40 guests , and it was an unforgettable experience!
The hotel is simply magical, with a magnificent pool, a splendid beach, and tastefully decorated rooms!
The staff is exceptionally kind and attentive. Although I can't name everyone , I want to thank especially ' Sheikh , the manager , for his kindness and professionalism.
Managing a group of 40 people is not always easy, but the staff was incredibly welcoming and conciliatory, making their stay very pleasant. The buffet was varied and delicious, satisfying all tastes.
We spent a magical evening and week at the Africa Queen Hotel. We highly recommend this property and warmly thank the whole team. We will be back with great pleasure!
Thanks again for everything!

Husband and I loved our 2 week stay at this amazing little hotel. We stayed in the garden rooms across the road from the restaurant, pool and beach rooms but felt we got a great deal with colourful garden around us and very quiet. Less than 2 minutes and we were on the private beach where you could watch local long boats out fishing, pelicans bobbing along, traders passing by, goats and horses getting bathed and even visits from local tribesmen all dressed up. Staff were so welcoming , so helpful and really friendly. We did half board and food was moderate but local cuisine night was fantastic with fish and sea food we had never tried before ( sea urchin was one) . Breakfast was adequate but I struggled with the meat which was always very tough. Salads however were delicious and lots of variety and they sure know how to make sweets! We used the Hotel as a base to travel over North of country and it was perfect for this. Lovely pool to come back to after busy days. Bar with cocktails and plenty sun.

I came to spend the day with a friend. The buffet is not bad, the location by the sea is ideal with deckchairs on the beach and a beautiful swimming pool. The staff is very friendly. On the other hand, we've been playing an orchestra for 3 hours when we just want to have some peace 🙄 That's worth seeing again...

A great hotel that we enjoyed very much, with my husband and daughters. The staff is lovely, the welcome impeccable, the manager is efficient and the rooms and bathrooms are spacious. Multiple swimming pools allow to satisfy everyone. There are water games for children, deckchairs everywhere, a ping pong, a volleyball net, a petanque court and the beach right in front. The buffets are very nice, hearty and delicious. One downside, it lacks Senegalese dishes like yassa or thiou. And we thought we had a room with sea view but overlooking the road, a little noisy.

We are very disappointed with the way we were treated at the restaurant. We ordered garlic butter lobsters a day before. What was our disappointment when we were served charred lobsters and when we were asked for garlic butter we were given trays of butter and garlic in a bowl. It was almost inedible. After many claims we were charged half!! And as a commercial gesture- the manager lectured us in front of everyone at the bar and as this was not enough she wrote to our travel agency again! We had another story at the pool because of a misunderstanding but we explained with the person and we thought we would leave on a good term but the director got involved again! Apart from these problems the hotel is nice, well located and the staff friendly and very helpful.

The rooms with air conditioning, TV, hairdryer... very clean. Most of them with a small terrace from where you can see the sea. Swimming pool with hammocks and access to a guarded "private" beach. Very rich breakfast and dinner with a wide variety, many options. Both buffet type. The hotel in general very clean and formal. To stay more than one night perfectly.
