“Great for backpackers and adventures seekers”
Mango Lodge is an easy stay for any backpacker. If you are happy to disconnect during the day and go explore rather than staying in your room looking for the wi-fi signal, this is definitely the place for you! There is no electricity until 19:30 due to the island of Bubaque not having any cables on premises; everything is powered by generators running on gasoline, and the staff makes sure to let you know that upon arrival, which helps manage expectations! I loved the garden, very well taken care of! The rooms are basic but super fresh due to their location, the bed is comfy, and the bedsheets were clean. Lovely decorations with natural flowers from the garden upon arrival. Breakfast can improve, but if you only like to have a coffee and some fruits for 2000 CFA, you can get a good value, and if you add 2000 more, you can get an omelette treat as well, not too bad for being in the middle of nowhere. I was happy to go on some excursions organised by the team between Mango and Cajou Lodge, but you must ask upon arrival or head straight to Cajou to ask what is happening in the upcoming days. Would definitely recommend it as a relaxing, cheap stay in Bijagos if you are on a budget! ps: water pressure is not great and so is the overall bathroom, but hey, we are in west Africa on an island, so already having a private bathroom is a luxury, I must recognise that.

“Had to turn away and stay elsewhere”
Close to the port area. Room reasonably clean. The lodge itself has a good atmosphere around it. Bathroom reasonably clean and there is a fan in the room, though no AC.

“Highly recommended!”
My stay at Mango Lodge was impeccable. The place is ideal for couples or solo travellers looking for an authentic stay with a local vibe. The rooms are clean and comfortable and there is plenty of common areas to relax. The manager is super nice and will make you feel at home. The owners are the same as Cajou Lodge and will be very happy to help organising activities during your stay. Worth checking in advance because the availability of boat transports may depend on the period and the day. On a higher price range, the other property (Cajou Lodge) is the nicest place on the island. Super new, nice swimming pool, nice view, decorated with great taste, and they have a great chef.

Location is not far from the ferry pier on the one of main streets. The personal is very amable and helpful. The hotel area is nice, there is a small restraunt the cook could serve you at your request.

“OK value for the money, space could be better utilised, definitely need an updated system”
Room was OK, stay generally felt OK but not memorable (could easily be made into one), staff very polite and friendly. Space has wonderful potential

“Good budget choice in Bubaque, lovely garden”
It's a lovely budget place, in a quiet central location, just away from the port, there are quite a few power cuts and resulting water cuts ( because the pump needs electricity to pump), WiFi was not working when I was there, staff are very good hearted, but payment was not easy so I went to Cajou Hotel and paid directly to Mimi who runs both places, she's really kind and helpful..
