Villa Maguela | Established Campground

April 15th, 2024 by travelove.org

Came back third time now after 1,5 years and it’s even better now than it used to be. Phone signal now is very strong (there is an antenna now in the middle of the last roundabout), so if you have mobile data, you could even work in paradise. 😂
Dinner got really expensive now, but it’s very good and if you know Mauritania, then you know it’s worth it.
It’s 4 friendly dogs now that get along very well with guest‘s dogs.
Please don’t use the washing machine as water is a real issue and very scarce. We gave our laundry to the cleaning lady who takes laundry home and delivers next day. Depending on how much laundry you have, give her 200-300 MRU.

Absolutely amazing, the best place to stay in Nouahdibou.

Very nice stopover for any traveler looking to rest near Nouhadibou, along the coast, you can find the villa run by Victor, rooms or campsite Victor will put you at ease and Tich's cuisine will make you you will enjoy with other travelers and will replenish your strength, in short, a must-see in Nouhadibou!

This place is well placed. The perfect shower, but for travelers in a vehicle, there is no place to empty the toilets. No tap to take water and the price has increased: 500MRU for 2 with 4x4.

genau wie beschrieben. Ein perfekter Platz zum runterkommen. Victor und Trisch sind super nett und hilfsbereit. Essen ist Klasse! Wasser ist wie überall knapp - seit sparsam!

Highly recommended! Don't think of going anywhere else in Nouadhibou because this is the place to relax and enjoy great company. Trish and Victor make the stay so comfortable and friendly and their beachfront place feels like you're not in Mauritania. 2 people with a tent 500oug for the night. Great food. Victor is making improvements on the place and will introduce wifi soon.

Fantastic place! If you want to have the feeling to be in a “part of the family “, that’s the place to be.
Tish (Scottish) and Victor (Dutch) are super nice people with rich adventurers’ life and share their amazing experience with you.
The food is excellent. No menu but you share the meal with the owners.
I was travelling alone with my dog (Belgian shepherd Malinois) who didn’t get well with the two lovely dogs of the place, but the place is so big that it wasn’t a big problem.
Hot shower and clean toilets.
The vue is fantastic.
Nice place to meet other travellers.
Don’t hesitate!

Fantastic place and amazing people. Victor and Tish in true travellers spirit make you feel like home. Food is amazing, camping grounds are clean and have some shade. Clean toilet and shower ( hot shower) large terrace with dinner tables, spacious hall for afternoon nap or social gathering of visitors. Worth visiting and staying few days.

Victors place is AMAZING! Would stay longer if we could!

It fills up (mostly if you just want a room but also for food) so just give Victor a heads up that you are coming if you can. His WhatsApp/phone number is +222 41565490

a charming place, with the Atlantic Ocean in sight, the owner is ver friendly and you can share your experiences with other travellers . Hot shower , meals , no WiFi , but it is a place for the disconnections .

A little tricky to find, you need to look for the building with a flag surrounded by a wall. Aim for the gate, head though, and around left to the arched entrance, they'll show you where you can park. Lovely east facing place with great hosts Victor and Tish. Spent the evening and following morning chatting over tea and coffee. Very clean facilities also. Would definitely recommend

Nice relaxed place and people. Great meeting point for travellers. Friendly big dogs. Good location near the border. Possible to have breakfast/dinner with owner and other guests. 1 toilet and 1 shower available and (cold) washing machine. Please be sparingly with water since there is no water network here!

Price 400 mru per car per day

The fish restaurant is not here at Vila Maguela and the „nomad tents“ are only put up for events (those „Rallies“), but it’s a beautiful and very peaceful place for camping with romantic sunrises and sunsets.
Hot solar powered shower, solar electricity, water from a bug tank. Very helpful owner.
The fish restaurant is 209m away in the RMK hotel and it’s good.
No WiFi and poor cellphone signal.

addendum: the sign at the door is hardly visuable, when the gate is open!
...see photo.

Great place! We stayed 3 nights. Very helpful owner. Sea is even now warm enough to go swimming. There is still a fish restaurant nearby.

owned by Victor from Netherlands. Idylic villa sat on the edge of pristine sea. Great birdlife and a nice place to sit and watch the local fishermen go back & forth. Basic rooms and camping on sand on the waters edge or a larger compound for big groups. Great overland stop. Gate can be a little tricky to find as the camp is set within a larger walled compound, look for the ksar type building. Bakers, shops, sim cards, ATMs available at nearby Nouadibou.

Very Nice place. Top spot near the sea. New owner…no restaurant anymore. Don’t hesitate to stop here but no shops.
