Review:
Leo's
is an avant-garde, beautifully simplistic structure within
The Gambia's coastal hospitality sector - you could be forgiven
for thinking you were in Miami! It's a well thought out accommodation
block of 5 double bedrooms and 1 suite with 2 guest bedrooms
and all with ocean facing sea views from private verandas.
All have air-conditioning, wireless broadband internet connection,
a private shower, flush toilet, sink, satellite TV, ceiling
fan, veranda, sea views, minibar and security safe. There
is an elegant, stylish drinks bar where you can mingle with
other guests and entertain friends.
In case of power failure the building has a back-up generator
and it utilizes solar panels to produce the running hot water
for the bathrooms and the diner's kitchen. Water is not a
problem either as Leo's has its own borehole and is connected
to the mains supply. *Airport transfers. |

 Review:
Mandina
is a wilderness based 5 star eco-lodge with lodges sleeping
either 2 or 3 guests. Each suite (Stilted, Jungle or 'Floating')
has an open-air shower (with solar heated hot water), hand-bowl
and toilet, ceiling fan, sunbathing terrace and a four-poster
bed with mosquito net draping.
Built in amongst the mangroves and tropical forest it literally
does give you a feeling of being close to nature. So close
in fact that you may occasionally spot the odd Colobus or
Vervet monkey nearby. The whole of this luxury accommodation
is set within its own private land of riverine, mangrove creek,
savanna, palm and hardwood-forest, and salt-flat eco-systems
covering 1,000 acres. |

Review:
Ngala Lodge, formerly a converted colonial mansion, is a sumptuous
5 star boutique hotel on the beach. The cliff-top location
gives it's visitors an almost unmatched swathe of oceanic
scenery such as the precariously hanging coastal rhun palms,
the Atlantic Ocean's horizon and Kotu's sweeping sandy bay
to your left. The lodge has stairs leading down to the often
narrow shore.
Ngala has 17 air-conditioned bedrooms of varying sizes, sleeping
2 people each. Suites come in groups of varying sizes and
levels of homely comforts, and each has a private bathroom
with hot tap water, and WC, plus a private terrace, balcony
or garden, while some with ocean views. |

Review:
A most fine, deluxe boutique hotel tucked between the Sukuta
and Bakoteh conurbation. Spacious and deluxe are two words
that best describe the bedroom suites, bathrooms, halls and
dreamy pool. A man-made tropical paradise best describes the
paved complex grounds with its well-appointed palms, tiled,
raised walkways and large, beautifully decorated plant pots.
Among the room comforts and conveniences are a split-unit
air-conditioner, satellite TV, minibar, hair dryer, and an
in-room security safe. There is also a lounge bar, salon and
massage parlour for relaxing all-over-body treatments. |

Review:
Roc Heights was conceived as primarily a business lodge catering
to the needs of business persons, conference attendees, and
other working people. It also welcomes vacationing travellers.
There are 14 luxury suites, apartments and one penthouse apartment

accommodation building on a quiet, exclusive residential road.
Each suite is fully air-conditioned and has its own private
bathroom (bathtub or shower), with hot running tap water,
flush toilet bowl, fridge, tea / coffee making facility, private
balcony / garden terrace, satellite TV, a sofa set and internet

The property also benefits from a back-up generator of 75
kva, reserve water tank, an exercise gym, emergency lights
and fire escape stairs at the back of the block. |

Review:
This is a superb beach lodge, which used to be a private winter
home until 2004. The very intimate retreat offers princely
comforts and personalised levels of service unmatched in this
section of the coast.
There are 7 double rooms in individual roundhouses and 1 double
bedroom in the main guest house. Each bedroom has an en-suite
bathroom, European appliances, satellite TV, dressing table,
wardrobe, chair and private porch. In an effort towards water
conservation the guest house uses saltwater to fill up the
12 metre swimming pool.
Get your alcoholic or soft-drink refreshments from the well-appointed
'Red Pool Bar' while enjoying the scenic ocean views of the
Atlantic. Dine in style under stylish parasols while taking
in views of the sea and palm fringed shoreline of Batokunku.
Get a relaxing massage on your sunbed by the pool or in your
room.
If you want a break from relaxation you can engage in various
activities such as day trips to various tourist attractions,
bird watching, angling, sailing, cycling, kite surfing and
beach barbecue. |
