    Everything was fantastic! Layo is an extremely kind and wonderful host who went out of his way to help us and we enjoyed visiting and getting to know him during our short time there. The room was lovely and very clean and the property is in a great location. Layo was easy to contact via WhatsApp and speaks fluent English. Absolutely wonderful stay! Thanks Layo!

    We had a great time at CDAC Elijah, especially thanks to Justin, who runs things and makes sure you have a nice experience of your visit to Ouidah. It is a great location close to the beach and close enough to Ouidah's town center to come and go every day.

    What a lovely setting. Jutting out over the quiet lake the water shimmering beneath your private deck. Bel Ami is a peaceful place to relax for a few days. Delicious crepes for breakfast & fantastic grilled fish for dinner. Comfortable bed & good shower. It's a small, rustic place lovingly created by the owners. We found it a perfect retreat after a week touring round Benin.

    The stay was perfect. Justin the host treated me as family and went out of is way to make sure it was a perfect stay. He gave me his SIM card to use (cause the wifi was down), took me into town on his moto when needed, showed me the sights and took me to a voodo performance and his parents house for some drinks. All was down without any sense of ‘for profit’. He just really is a good dude! Food was suberb and well priced
