Superlatives don't do it justice. Gorgeous. Idyllic. Heavenly. You won't want to leave after disembarking onto a long postcard-perfect white-sand beach. And some guests don't, choosing to buy one of the resort's charming and sophisticated beachfront bungalows. While there's much to do – fishing, kayaking, trips to other islands – it's tempting to simply do nothing for once.
Days can be spent moving from one relaxing spot to the next – from your tree-shaded bungalow porch to a lounge chair by the well-supplied infinity pool, to a bar stool or a table on a deck set above the water and mangroves. There's a breakfast buffet and three-course lunches and dinners can be tailored to your liking. The resort is run by Solange, a charming Frenchwoman who built it from scratch, and managed by a very professional Senegalese man named Alain. Closed late May to September.
