Located in the village of Brufut, Gambia, Hibiscus House is a 12 bedroom boutique, family run hotel, set in 3003 square meters of stunning tropical African gardens. In operation for over 9 years, Hibiscus House is firmly established as one of The Gambia’s leading small hotels. Just 1km from one of The Gambia’s most beautiful and secluded beaches, and 16km from the International Airport. Described as an ‘oasis in an African village’, Hibiscus House has become a sanctuary for guests needing peace and tranquility under the shadow of the African sun. Guests use the Hotel as a place to relax, to enjoy the gardens brimming with bird life, and as a bolt hole to explore the real Gambia. With lots to see and do right on its doorstep, the Hotel has developed a full array of trips and excursions which provide guests with an opportunity to experience all that the Country has to offer.
Teamwork is Sarah's ethic which makes your stay at Hibiscus House a very special one. Many of our staff have been with Hibiscus for many years and always look forward to welcoming guests, many of whom have become regulars. Sarah has a wealth of knowledge about The Gambia and always with a warm welcoming smile, Hibiscus House is his home and your home in The Gambia
You can enjoy this unique family run hotel located amidst the local community away from the main tourist areas and set within tropical gardens it’s the perfect break for a little winter sun. The Gambia has long been popular for an extensive bird life, musical culture, river and sunny coastline. A perfect location for ‘YOU’ to explore and experience the real Gambia. We very much look forward to welcoming you to Hibiscus House and The Gambia.
