쿠르 마라키스(Keur Marrakis)

It’s a nice guesthouse with sea view rooms. The outside area with a small swimming pool is pleasant. The staff are nice and the food is reasonably priced and good. Unfortunately the location is a bit far from Mbour and Saly and the beachfront is very dirty. The Wi-Fi is rather weak. However if you want to escape from it all, it’s a good place.

I give this hotel four stars because of two things: the outdoor dining area with a sea-view and the friendly staff. I am glad I was there mostly during dry weather, which allowed me to enjoy the outdoor seating. However, the 15 minutes or so that I spent inside in the sitting area when it rained, it felt like sitting in an unkempt living room of a big family. It was indeed a family business and many people, possibly family members were helping out. They were all very friendly. The little pool was often full. There seemed to be many day-visitors and at times it was very loud. As for Wi-Fi, although they kept saying "connect to D-link", there was mostly no internet with that link. The rooms were small and dark and did not give a very clean feeling. My bed-sheets had blood stains from mosquito bites of the previous guest. The family seemed to be cutting corners in many things. Even the soap was a left-over last piece of what looked like the soap used for doing laundry. Maybe local tourists had no problem with this, but I found it rather unclean. I am glad I had the experience and I did enjoy having a drink or two by the seaside. So, I can forget about the not-so-good stuff in the hotel.

Attractive looking place. Quite comfortable. The only problem I had was with the doorway to the bathroom. So low I cracked my head at least three times.

The location is very beautiful with lovely views of the sea. The patio and garden & pool area are very nice. Food is excellent and the staff is sooo helpful both with food, arranging good taxi drivers, airport transfers etc, for a good price. Just a word of warning: the beach (far below, so it's only a problem when you take the stairs down to the beach) is impressively dirty/filthy. So just don't expect nice walks on the beach.

It felt more like staying in a untidy living room of a big family. I was lucky that it did not rain and I could use the outdoor dining area, which was very nice with a sea-view. The rooms were dark, bed-sheets did not feel clean (there were dried blood stains from mosquito bites of the previous guest). Soap used was the end piece of used-up laundry soap, which was very unappealing. There was no chair for the desk. People were very friendly, but they were cutting corners and to keep expenses low, but it was not very appealing to a foreign guest. Reviews of the place are over-rated. Sorry!

Beautiful views of the ocean and easy walk to town on the road or to the market on the beach

Nice stuff
