Beautiful hotel, amazing views from the room. Quiet and peaceful with just the sound of the waves. Very clean. Comfiest bed ever in Gambia after being here many times. Friendly staff. Good breakfast. Large TV with streaming channels which was great for cooling down after a day at the pool or beach. Good AC but also 2x fans in the room. Tea and coffee facilities in the room with full size fridge. Absolutely loved this hotel and kept extending our stay. Lovely pool area and access to private quiet beach. Hotel looks exactly as the photos advertised on booking.com

The hotel is five star, the services are five star, the location is perfect a the beach and with not so much human traffic on the beach. The staff were very professional and friendly. I love the fact that there was a mango tree just right outside my room.

I love ❤️ everything about the property. The location, size of the apartment, amenities within the apartment, room size, all the very friendly and accommodating staff who are always ready to please. The impeccable service received right from the checking in to checking out. The manager Mr Aziz was very patient and never lost composure throughout when dealing with clients.

beautifull beach. place for leisure and relaxation.

beautifull beach. place for leisure and relaxation. very big difference with the poverty of the local people. while walking at the beach people adress you over and over and it hard to get rid of them in there attempt to sell you goods or services.

As a family we would definitely return for a holiday.

As a family we would definitely return for a holiday. We felt that being able to relax by a pool would have compensated for noisy teatime traffic, which was very noticeable while sitting on the balcony.

Fajara is a quieter and local neighbourhood that is still used to tourists! If that is what you are looking for, it is perfect! If you are looking for something more touristy, and a little closer to all the restaurants and resorts, I would recommend the Senegambia

Bakotu Hotel is situated in a square blessed with good restaurants and a nice and small traditional craft market. So there's good food to be had outside the hotel too. Our was Flavors where we had an excellent butterfish with lime & garlic sauce dish. Further along beach there are the usual fruit drink sellers, one of our favourites was Aladdin (and no he didn't have a carpet). Also along the beach beyond the crossable creek is Kunte Kinte Restaurant, a good place, where you can get a sunlounger and food and drink (inc. local favourite of ours, the one and only Pink Drink (baobab & wonjo). There are many people selling their wares on the beach moost are pleasant and friendly and will accept a firm and polite excuse and move on. We did buy a few things though, the costs were so low. Closer to Kotu Sq, the ladies in orange tops sell juices and massages Ayesha seem to be friendliest and most outgoing of these ladies. Ayesha & her colleague gave us a relaxing back, neck and head massage before our flight home.

I came to the region for enjoying the swimming but in winter time waters may be quite cold and the air is hot only around midday till 4 p. m. so better be early if wishing to do some water sports without getting cold. The sea is warmer than pools but quite harsh.

The Knightsbridge of London. Vast choice of elegant accomadation, restaurants, sports bar, nightclubs and golf club too! Access to ATM and beach 10 minute walk from most accomadation in this area. Very easy to walk around the area although transport is ready available.

The lodges are comfortable with ensuite bathroom and shower.

The lodges are comfortable with ensuite bathroom and shower. There isn't AC but was plenty comfortable enough with a ceiling fan. There is hot running water in the room when you need to have a warm shower although most of the time I took a cool shower. I moved here from one of the 'Hotel Castles by the Sea' that were overcrowded and overpriced for the standard of accommodation there. Kotu Island lodge presents a friendly, personal and quiet atmosphere. You can chat with Terry, the owner who is a very nice man. True Gent! Its only a few minutes walk to the beach and you get the great atmosphere of living in amongst the community. I wholly recommend a stay here. Thak you Terry. You are a great host.
