In case you don't want to read the essay below - in a nutshull loved the hotel. It's 2*, so don't expect a 5*. The people & the grounds are just fantastic. The food & drinks also really good. So if you want a fabulous room this probably isn't the place for you! If you care more about everything else...... more

I first stayed here when it had just opened, infact many parts were under construction, so to come back and see the full finished place was great.

Had a week at the Senegambia just after Easter (our first visit) and absolutely loved it. The Hotel Senegambia was everything that the reviews said. Sure the rooms are a bit basic and the bathroom towels a bit ropey, but we don't go on holiday to spend all our time in the room looking at the towels. Staff are unfailingly... more

If your thinking of taking long dresses, then think again, as the hanging bar is so low down that your clothes are hitting the bottom... more

We did try the beach a couple of days but we were quite often approached by people selling fruit, juice or waiting to give you a massage. The beach is patrolled but they obviously... more

They are totally harmless and actually quite good fun! Just play along with the game, thetywill see the funny side! I am very well travelled and have been all... more

Just returned from our second visit to the Senegambia Beach Hotel. We thoroughly enjoyed it, even though our group ranged from 12 to 72 years old! The location is just great and the people are very friendly. The hotel manager for the beach front, Lamin, is a perfect gent. If you want to see the real Gambia, go to the... more
