    By far the best place I've stayed in in the Gambia. The owner, Claudette is great, and so are the staff. Everyone was very friendly and extremely helpful. The location is perfect if, like me, you don't like resorts and want a bit of interaction...

    Great place with many plants, some cats and a dog. The room is good and has a kitchen. The location is good, it's in a quiet street, but it's like 15 minutes by walk to the beach, a few minutes by walk to a supermarket and two exchange offices....

Host Info

Host Review Score
Our location is very convenient. The beach on close walking distance. Supermarkets, restaurants, a church and public transport, are all very nearby. We have only 9 rooms and love to host people who like to stay long term. We have many returning long term guest which makes it a very pleasant environment for all. We have our own borehole, a silent generator and another one standby. Yogurt, jams and peanutbutters are made in-house, honey from our own hives and herbal delicious teas or moringa snacks, all available at our shop, all from own produce.
We are also Care for natural african beauty foundation, occupied with producing food, therapeutic cosmetics and dairy for progress. At another location we have a charitable Aloe Vera Burn treatment centre for children and babies, some 30 beehives and more. Protecting nature, also when inconvenient, is important to us.
Our neighbourhood is reasonably calm, unless the church or a neighbour has a party or unless a small group of monkeys comes to check our premises for food, as well visiting parrots tend to be a bit loud. 😊 In general our neighbourhood is quiet. Restaurants and cosey bars are at a stonethrow as is a group of painting artists, supermarkets, a local coffee kiosk and taxis.
