A large 160 cm queen bed, air conditioning, TV, wifi and a private bathroom: the Standard Room at La Casa S keeps to the essentials, and it is the only room type in the house, repeated six times. You sleep cool, and spend the rest of the day outdoors, between the pool, the garden and the terrace.

The room is rented on its own, with no compulsory meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner are served on request, at extra cost. The living room and pool are shared with the other guests, cleaning is included, and the house has a security guard, cameras and parking. Airport shuttle, car rental and excursions can be arranged on request.

Things to do from the room. A pirogue trip on the Somone lagoon, a paddleboard or jet ski outing, an afternoon on a quad in the baobab forest, and a traditional massage at the end of the day. All these activities can be booked on Senegal Activities.
