The Compound
Bijilo, Gambia
Average Review Score: 9.2-
Positive section of review
What this property offers that a large majority of others do not- here you will have amazing water pressure. If you’ve ever stayed in Gambia you know this is very common complaint but not here at all. Another plus with this home is the power. Even a light rain shower throws power off and here they have a generator that they are excellent about starting if they power does go out. Free WiFi was very good. Breakfast - the fried eggs were so good we ordered them almost every day. Home is kept very clean. Staff was very helpful. Location was off a few streets from the main road but we had no complaints walking to the beach or restaurants

Only complaint was guests do not have a key for the front gate. Most times when you knock someone came but if it’s late at night you have to wake someone up and we felt bad having to do that . AC is an extra charge and that’s understandable

The Kairaba Beach Hotel
Kololi, Gambia
Average Review Score: 5.9-
Positive section of review
The facility and staff were very nice and welcoming. However, we were disappointed by the lack of control over access to the amenities. The pool area and surrounding grounds were extremely crowded, largely due to outside visitors, including large groups of teenagers. This made it difficult to relax and enjoy the space. At one point, I went to sit by the pool and found chewed gum left on the table, which was off-putting and unhygienic. Unfortunately, we never felt comfortable using the facilities during our stay, and this significantly impacted the overall experience and the intended ambience of the property.

All I can say is superb all around. The host was extremely nice and also informative about attractions and the area. Not far from Banjul. There’s several ways to get in town on your own and I felt very safe.

It was a good hotel to stay. The price was fine and the breakfast was ok. The only issue was that the internet was not fast in the room.

Security was not enforced. Non guests wandered onto property and one man even knocked on my door asking me for money after he saw my boyfriend leave. Also there are too many men on site and not enough female employees. I wouldn’t call this a “secure” apartment. Also, a male employee knocked on door at almost 11:00pm one night while in bed to ask if the power was on. This made me feel unsafe.
