The Rhino Resort Hotel & Spa  

In Saly on Senegal’s Petite Côte, minutes from the town center and a short walk to Village Artisanal and Khelcom Museum. This family-friendly resort-hotel sits close to Saly Golf Club and Mbour Fishermen Village, roughly 68 km from Dakar and 83 km from Gorée Island.

Rooms and suites lean into elegant, ethnic decor and practical comfort. Expect air conditioning, LCD TVs, minibars, in-room safes and Wi‑Fi, with many bathrooms offering separate tubs and showers (rainfall heads), plus bathrobes and slippers.

Multiple outdoor pools (including a tropical beach pool), an indoor pool and an aquapark keep things lively. The spa — billed as the largest in West Africa — features a dramatic waterfall, hammam, Jacuzzis and a full menu of massages and treatments. There’s also a fitness center, sauna, steam bath, beauty salon, children’s playground, terrace, bars and concierge; private parking and airport transfer options are available.

Meeting and banquet facilities include a conference center and four meeting rooms (capacities for larger events up to ~250 people). A business center, express check-in/out and complimentary Wi‑Fi keep work running smoothly.

Two on-site restaurants — including L'Orchidee — plus cafés, two bars and poolside bars serve buffet breakfasts (available for a fee) and a la carte options. Menus showcase regional and international flavors to match the resort's relaxed, authentic-African vibe.
