Perfect Stay Apartments are "perfectly" located, in such that getting to the most memorable places in Paramaribo only takes 15 minutes driving at the most.
Dolphin Spotting
There are several tour operators providing dolphin spotting 1-day tours. Most departure from Leonsberg, which is only a 5 minute drive from our location. The dolphins are spotted in the area where the Suriname and Commewijne rivers merge so from Leonsberg you are transported to the spotting location in a tent boat. Most tours are until in the late afternoon and at that time of day the tours are complemented with a beautiful sunset.

Palmentuin & Waka Pasi
Palmentuin is a palm tree landscape garden in Paramaribo, Suriname. In addition to tall royal palms, the grounds are home to tropical birds and a "troop" of capuchin monkeys. Palmentuin is located on Van Roseveltkade behind the Presidential Palace of Suriname. The latest additoon to palmentuin is Waka Pasi, which litteraly means walking road. This is a series of small craft and food stands just behind palmentuin. All of this is within a 3 minute drive, with in the direct vicinity a lot of restaurants, casinos, clubs and bars, the "entertainment center" of Suriname.
