Very good value for money in Kabrousse, a 15 minutes walk to the beach. Nice, simple but comfortable rooms with view on the swimming pool. The huge fromager dominating the lodge is spectacular. Incredibly tasty pizzas and other Italian dishes are served at lunchtime and dinner.

I liked the bungalow and the wide space - they have hot water and comfortable bed
We stayed with them for two nights in March, we were the only guests by the time.
While our stay someone managed to get into our bungalow and stole our money: 90.000CFA's (around 140€).
I was very disappointed of how they managed this uncomfortable situation by taking us to a paid ''chaman'' who just told us we were lying. I was expecting more help by the manager/owner.
Please take care of your belongings apparently is not safe, so shut windows and door the whole time.

I couldn't have asked for more based on the price. The owner was welcoming, the lodging spacious and the house made pizzas are fabulous. The grounds are charmingly painted with vignettes. It's rustic and a perfect spot off the beaten path.
Note - the beach is a 10-12 minute walk.

I really liked the round design and spacious individual traditional cabins, though not all of the wooden slated windows close properly, which might be a concern for guests who have valuables. Also appreciated plenty of towels, toilet paper and hot water! WiFi was pretty good, too, but do check it is on and running if you have a double sim card system to avoid roaming charges.
I liked staying in Kabrousse, which has local flair and is much less hectic than neighbouring Cap Skirring.
My cabin was dark due to soft lighting, so a reading lamp would be nice. I ate elsewhere with friends, but noticed that prices were indeed rather high for travellers on a budget- room rates were quite reasonable. The short road into the lodging is very dark at night if you're walking in.

I love the traditional round hut, very spacious and cozy at night, even without mosquito nets and some windows that don't close, I saw no insects and slept comfortably. The white cotton sheets were pristine, the pillow soft. Best was the plentiful hot water, towels and toilet paper, much appreciated.
I didn't eat there nor did I use the small pool, which looked clean enough. The grounds and swimming pool area are meticulously cleaned throughout the day.
It's dry season, but guests who mosquitoes bite might want to enquire about protection in the rainier season. It would also be good to clean the outside shower area and basins for cleaning up after the beach or pool. Do carry a torch for returning at night. It's a short but very dark path from the main street to the lodge. I did manage to get to the beach in about 20 minutes, but you need to ask locals where access points are. Lots of residential zones and hotels don't really want you to cross their private property.

It was very quiet and relaxing at the pool. Nice pizza's. Nice rooms.
The beach is a bit a walk. We expected 3 beds in the room, there were only 2.

I was the only guest as I came during the low season. The staff were nice, the bungalows were lovely, and the beach was just a 15-min walk from the hotel.

It's a fine place with a really kind and helpful owner plus a great italian restaurant.
There was a weird smell in our rooms. Also, there was no door between the bathroom and the bedroom. I would have preferred more privacy.

Fromager is a really cute 6 hut guest-house led by a Italian&Senegalese couple with a kid. The owners and the staff are really warm and friendly, very arranging. The Italian restaurant is great! Breakfast is basic, huts are clean, mattresses good.
Its not by the beach so you will need to walk or take a taxi if you want to enjoy the sea.

Giulio and all the stuff are great hosts! They creates a peaceful community in the nature near the village of Kabrousse and not so far from the beach and the city center of Cap Skirring. We loved the amazing Italian food (especially the Christmas buffet😍) and the support during all of our stay. One more positive note: great playlist all night long 🎼

Nice english speaking owner, the other staff speaks only french. Room was good with nice shower and bed. Food was good enough.
Its a bit far from beach (1,5km) or the town.
Insect net mesh had many holes.
