JOHANNESBURG & PORT LOUIS, Mauritius — Kasada, the leading independent real estate private equity platform dedicated to hospitality in sub-Saharan Africa, announced today that it has acquired one of the most popular seaside resorts in Senegal: The Lamantin Beach Resort & Spa.

The asset is located along the Petite Côte, in Saly, a prominent leisure hub that attracts international and local visitors alike. It features 166 keys, meeting rooms, 2 swimming pools, a spa & wellness area, a water sports centre, and is one of the only hotels with direct access to the beach.

Upcoming renovations to this 166-key beach resort will enhance guest experience and ensure leading environmental and social governance practices.

We believe the combination of the hotel’s popularity and our savoir-faire will create significant value to our guests and the local community.
