Goree Island Mountain Holidays

This was a really lovely stay. Feels like a secret gem on the West African coast. Hotel guests were predominantly Black Africans but also I would say 25-33% were white Francophone people. We felt taken care of by the staff, especially the dining staff (and the hall head directrice, who always greeted guests and remembers families). The food options and quality were also great. The best part was the surrounding and care for the property (gardens, etc). Loved loved the peaceful beach side and cabanas. Not so great: at the end of our stay, I got an email stating our checkout times (later than typical but great since we had late flights and booked hotel airport transfers that I had paid for). The times were at our transfer times. But shortly before, a previously pleasant housekeeper got short with us because I think she was being asked to clean our rooms and get us out. The lady at the front desk (seems senior) was unaware of the email and asked us to check out, at the desk, she also acted as if the rides were not paid and I had to login to my bank to show them at the front desk. They do not keep great digital records and are very old school (ledgers and calculators). This made an otherwise 10/10 trip annoying. They also need to upgrade their bathrooms and put air vents in their bathrooms. There is great AC in rooms. I would still recommend this place.

Beautiful place overall! Everything was great including the staff, our room, the pool, the food...Everything! The staff was very friendly and attentive Mr. Oumar and his staff were the best! My only suggestion for the restaurant staff is to make sure that all customers receive the same type of customer service no matter what they look like.
