Beautiful beachfront property with lovely rooms. Breakfast was terrific, and staff are friendly and multi-lingual. Highly recommend. The downside is that it's a long haul from the airport through marginally safe streets. Make sure you have a good car and driver. Taxi service is pretty sketchy. The hotel would do well to have an airport shuttle.

Sandanga lies roughly midway on Plateau center in Dakar and is the biggest of Dakar`s markets. If you are not familiar with African markets is worth a visit, but be careful with your valuables and do not be fooled to follow strangers. Sandanga is a mix of flea market and tourist market. It is fussy and chaotic and sellers are ongoing. Try to visit Sandanga early in the morning. It is less crowded at that time of day and fruits and vegetables are fresh and look attractive.
