It's my third time visiting Gorée Island, and this time i choose to spend a night there. The island has a particular beauty and colors. The locals, has most part of the senegalese people are warm. The Maison Augustin is in the core of the island. The room is confortable and cozy. Was ready to receive me and very clean. The bathroom even though is shared was clean. The staff is friendly and prepares you a very good breakfast. I will return.

“Amazing stay! Highly recommend”
Location was perfect and the staff were so friendly! Great price and honestly a highlight of our trip. The hotel owners also own 2 restaurants on the island, we went to the one across from the ferry Chex Thio, and honestly some of the best food we’ve had on this trip! The breakfast was also super good, bread, jam, coffee, fried egg, crepe and hibiscus juice. Couldn’t of asked for a better stay

“Oasis of peace.”
It's a beautiful island. Stuff very nice. Hotel very clean. If you are going to Dakar, don't. Go to Gorée Island. It's the oasis of peace. You will not relax in Dakar. We were so glad, we stayed with Maison Augustin. Thanks guys. O. One more thing. If you decide to stay there, you have to try some fish from the owners restaurant. THEY CAN DO FISH. Honestly. The best fish in my life. Beautiful.

“Great stay, really good location (get a guide at the musee des esclaves if you go!)”
The staff were amazing, one guy in particular (whose name I have forgotten!!), he was so welcoming, friendly and helpful, he offered us a room change because I had the same name as one of the rooms. He even ran down to the ferry port when we were leaving with something we had forgotten. The Breakfast was lovely on the terrace with omlette, tea/coffee, bread and bissap juice. The rooms were nicer than on the photo. Showers were hot and had good power.
