Luxury 5 star Lamantin Beach Hotel re-opens in Senegal

With its beautiful private sandy beach, spa, marina, outstanding gourmet cuisine, wonderful staff and delightful rooms set in pretty gardens, the 5 star Lamantin Beach Hotel is considered one of the most luxurious in the resort of Saly 50 miles south of Dakar. Following a devastating fire, the hotel re-opened at the end of last year and is proving to be everything it was before and more. The new Beach Club with à la carte restaurant, fitness centre, and floodlit tennis courts is a superb addition to this spectacular hotel renowned for having the most attentive staff you could find anywhere. Whether you want to make full use of the fishing centre and go on a deep-sea fishing trip or try one of a number of available watersports, be pampered in the Thalassotherapy Spa or simply relax by the pool, the Lamantin Beach Hotel is the perfect place for a luxury getaway. There’s plenty of interest outside the hotel too including one of Senegal’s best 18 hole golf courses and don’t forget your camera if you go on a mini-safari in the nearby Bandia Nature Reserve  where you’ll have the chance to see zebras, giraffes, rhinos and many other wonerful birds and animals up close, roaming freely.
