We are proud to celebrate the end of our first year at DakarByDays, a project that began from scratch in October 2023. Thanks to the trust of our clients and the dedication of our team, we have achieved remarkable milestones.
Over the past twelve months, we have had the privilege of serving 240 clients, hosting 986 overnight stays, and completing 93 check-ins.
These numbers not only reflect our commitment to quality and personalized service but also highlight our contribution to the local economy, creating both direct and indirect jobs. We have collaborated with professionals in laundry, repairs, and supplies, while encouraging local consumption in restaurants and shops, among other sectors.
We firmly believe that every partnership strengthens the economic and social fabric of Dakar.
The Rise of Vacation Rentals: A Complement, Not Competition
The vacation rental sector is experiencing significant growth, proving to be a solution that complements hotel offerings rather than competing with them. At DakarByDays, we specialize in meeting the needs of a specific client profile: those seeking medium to long stays, competitive rates, more spacious accommodations, equipped kitchens, and additional conveniences such as quiet neighborhoods or strategic access to services.
While hotels cater primarily to short stays and classic services, our apartments stand out for their versatility and comfort. They are ideal for families, business professionals, or individuals looking for a "home away from home" during their stay. This focus allows us to bring unique value to the market and positions us as a partner in diversifying lodging options.
Looking Ahead
These achievements are not just a source of pride but also a driving force for future growth. In the near term, we plan to add more units to the buildings where we already operate, consolidating our presence and optimizing the professional management of our accommodations. Additionally, we aim to expand into new locations that will enable us to continue developing our comprehensive and high-quality model.
Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey during our first year. This is just the beginning of a path filled with opportunities and growth.
