Very nice place! We're camping in the car park. Was very full here with tourists during daytime. Wifi is NOT fast, some of the slowest wifi we've had in Africa so far. Owner is very nice and speaks French and German! Would recommend for one night.
Make sure to go to the beach when you're here! The bars along the beach are way cheaper than the restaurant here and also have got great food.

Rada is indeed very nice but sadly the place changed and they no longer have the parking lot as a road is under construction.
We were still allowed to park on the compound and build our tent where we wanted, 5000 per night for the car and 2 people and the tent and salty swimming pool.
Toilets and shower were a bit run down and we had no water during our stay (used our own water to shower). Feels like the whole area is kind of abandoned cause of road construction (few active bars and restaurants around). At the time you cannot drive to Cotonou along the coast and had to join the main road

Rafa is really great and nice...unfortunately the most of her hotel and the campsite had been destroyed! The government is building a street right behind/ through her compound, so that they just destroyed the majority of the hats, the Waterhouse and so on. At the moment Rada has only 2 hats left that she can rent out, also there is still the pool (salty) and the restaurant. Only saltwater showers available at the moment. We could park on a small parking area next to the pool and could give what we wanted. Good food! Great omelette for breakfast! Rada plans on rebuilding all destroyed things! So keep visiting!

We stayed 4 nights at this lovely place! They have a nice swimming pool, the owner is super friendly and the food os the best we ate so far in West Africa! We stayed in a room with a fan for 10.000 a night. They have super fast WiFi as well, it felt like we were in Europe again. Beers are a bit expensive so just go to 1 of the small bars on the beach for that at Rada 1500 cfa at the bars 600 cfa big beers :)
