Meet the founder

Amina Sam

Amina is a real estate developer raised in Brooklyn, New York, with Senegalese roots. Gallestays brings those two worlds together: the drive and standards she grew up with in New York, and a deep connection to the country her family comes from. She's creating places in Dakar where travelers, families and the diaspora can truly feel at home.

She's building Gallestays step by step with a clear focus on quality, community and long-term value, and she wants the people who believe in it early to be the first to benefit.
