My whole experience was very positive here at auberge kayokulo. It was spotlessly clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I have stayed here before but was pleasantly surprised by its complete new upgrade. It has a new 3 storey building beside the existing (one storey) building. It got a new paint job and was tiled throughout, even in the garden was tiled. This made the whole place so much brighter and really lovely.

We chose the presidential suite which consisted of an en suite double room with balcony and an attached sitting/lounge room for relaxing. The small area in between both rooms was equipped with fridge and kettle for making tea etc. Rooms were cleaned daily and towels and bedclothes were changed. If you want to eat here, you need to order in advance so just tell the staff in the morning. The food was delicious and we ate all our meals here, even when we went out for the day, we always returned to eat here. The rooms have a fan, aircon and mosquito net. It also has free wifi. We loved chatting with the staff and other guests in the garden in the evening. We enjoyed some Senegalese tea (called ataya) that the staff very kindly made for us. The atmosphere here is so welcoming and chilled, I didn’t want to leave.

I would definitely recommend that you book in advance as it was quite busy when we were there and some guest were disappointed because there were no rooms available when they turned up without booking.

Way beyond expectations

We stayed two nights here while visiting a nearby village. I completely disagree with the previous review. For fancier accommodations, head to Zig or Cap, but if you need to stay the night in Bignona, this is the place to be. There is excellent AC, a good quality mosquito net and fast wifi. The bed is a comfortable foam mattress, and there is a private bathroom with good water pressure and a western toilet. Bring your own toilet paper, but clean towels are provided. With a days notice, they prepared a delicious Yassa Poulet for us for dinner. Breakfast of bread, jam, coffee and tea was also provided. For a town that does not see much tourism (there are no real restaurants) this Auberge is truly a gem! We were grateful to find such comfortable accommodations for our visit to the rural Cassamance. Highly recommended!
