Managing accommodation in Dakar, whether short-, medium-, or long-term, is not just about renting out a space. At DakarByDays, we believe it's about attention to detail: choosing the right guests, ensuring a high-quality stay, and respecting both neighbors and property owners.
In this article, we explain who our ideal guest is and how we create a smooth, comfortable, and respectful experience in our furnished apartments in Dakar, with equipped kitchens, Wi-Fi, and cleaning included.
Our ideal guest
Our properties are not hotels. They are homes—designed for travelers who seek privacy, comfort, and peace. Our ideal guests are often expatriates, business travelers, or families visiting Dakar for work, health, or personal reasons.
They typically need short-term rentals in Dakar, corporate housing, or vacation apartments that are quiet, well-equipped, and located in safe, accessible areas. We avoid bookings that suggest parties or disruptions to the building’s residents.
Before confirming a booking, we take into account the length of the stay, the purpose of travel, and the guest’s profile.
How we care for our guests
Once a reservation is confirmed, our goal is simple: to make sure the guest feels at home and enjoys a smooth, pleasant stay in our Dakar apartments.
1. Honest listings, real experiences
All our listings feature authentic photos and clear descriptions. Whether it’s a weekly rental, a central apartment with a pool, or a furnished flat for remote work, the idea is to match (or exceed) guest expectations.
2. Clean, comfortable and well-equipped
Each furnished apartment in Dakar is carefully cleaned, maintained and thoughtfully equipped—with high-quality linens, full kitchenware, and everything needed for a comfortable stay.
Our homes are ideal for those searching for an apartment with Wi-Fi, an equipped kitchen, or accommodation with services included.
3. Clear communication and warm welcome
Before arrival, we stay in touch with guests to coordinate check-in, answer questions and make sure they feel welcome from the first moment.
Every apartment includes a Welcome Book with practical information about the unit, the neighborhood, local recommendations, and clear house rules. We're also available 24/7 in case guests need anything during their stay.
A positive guest experience is everything
At DakarByDays, we know great service leads to great experiences—and great experiences lead to positive reviews, better visibility on platforms like Airbnb Dakar, and a balance between guest satisfaction, community respect, and rental success.
“84% of people trust online reviews as much as a personal recommendation.”

That’s why we focus on creating a guest experience that leaves a lasting impression—for travelers, neighbors, and property owners alike.
