Amazing!
We have lived in Senegal for more than a year and the trip to Palmerin was most memorable. The villa is AMAZING and just as pictured. You truly get a feel for being in Senegal while staying in this beautiful place. Pierre (the owner) is very professional and his home staff who will meet you (Anna and Rene) are wonderful. Anna makes wonderful food and Rene (the highlight of the trip) will be able to offer you some amazing adventures! We took the Pirogue trip through the Mangroves and saw beautiful birds, mangroves, and also took a tour through a village. We also went hyena spotting and YES it really was such. We saw 3 hyenas and was the highlight of the children's trip. It was especially nice to take the daily excursions and then come back to the villa and jump in the nice clean, fantastic pool! You can also walk down to the beach which is a few steps behind the house. All of the people of the village are so kind and welcoming, you feel as though you are part of the village yourself! It is quiet and safe. The ONLY downside was that the house does not have air conditioning and it got very, very hot at night despite having ceiling fans in the room (it is also the hottest season in Senegal - Oct right now). Thank you Pierre for helping us create some wonderful family memories!
