This house is our personal paradise that we open up to people who want to enjoy pure Africa. We have a spacious swimming pool surrounded by a beautiful enclosed garden with lots of greenery. There is also a sunbathing area where you can lie down and a pergola where you can have a drink. There is always staff available to answer questions (Multilingual: English, French, Portuguese) The house is located in a real African neighbourhood, poor and quiet but with very friendly inhabitants. The location is walking distance from the center (15min). The house is monitored 24/7.
