Located by the water, near Fimela in the Sine Saloum Delta, Souimanga Lodge offers exclusive, comfortable accommodation in a picturesque, tranquil setting.
The Lodge, which opened in 2007, is small but perfectly formed with the emphasis on ensuring guests are well looked after and receive personal attention. The five wooden, air-conditioned chalets are nestled amongst the trees and colourful, flowering plants, each individually and beautifully decorated to a high standard with African style furnishings, fabrics and ornaments. The stylish bathrooms have twin basins, a large walk-in shower and ample wardrobe space and the large picture windows open on to private decking areas where you can sunbathe or sit and enjoy the views across the gardens, the pool and the river.
The small, infinity swimming pool enjoys views over the water where you can relax in comfort on cushioned sun-beds under the shade of the trees and the umbrellas. Only a short walk away is the bar for a cooling drink. The adjacent restaurant serves excellent, freshly cooked food, which is served in style either inside the restaurant or on one of the terraces. You can even enjoy a romantic, private meal on the covered terrace at the end of the Lodge’s private jetty.
Whilst the atmosphere at Souimanga Lodge is peaceful and calming, you can also venture out and explore the local area on one of the excursions on offer, whether by boat, horse-drawn buggy or by car, or go fishing and bird-watching along the local rivers.
This charming hotel will appeal to anyone who is looking for a relaxing break in beautiful surroundings.
