We were a bit apprehensive about the Gambia due to the low price of the holiday but were more than pleasantly surprised. The rooms were spacious and always clean, free water each day and v quiet. The beach is gorgeous, food plentiful and of a good standard. The swimming pool is fantastic and the 'events team' were on hand to... more

Needed some relaxation and some sun in the autumn and this was just what I had at the Sheraton. The good: the location, away from the main hotel area, quiet the buffet breakfast the friendly staff the beach with no hassle the spacious grounds The not so good: the staff aren't too interested in solving practical problems the tourist taxis... more

We had booked a Deluxe Sunset Baobab Bedroom. We arrived at sunset - what couldn't we see from our balcony - yes, you've guessed it, the sunset. We were offered 2 other rooms, but one smelt as though it hadn't been occupied for some time and the others view was blocked by a tree and an overhanging roof, so we... more

I spent a week here in January with my partner and young son, we had a great time, all the staff was fantastic, and the food and service was very good. Unfortunately my son was ill towards the end of the holiday (nothing to do with the hotel or country) and all the staff were very helpful in getting him... more

If it's luxury you want in The Gambia this is the hotel for you. Rooms are spacious, food is fabulous and service is excellent. The pool and gardens are great and with direct access onto the beach it is perfect. Very quiet location but if you want to experience something a little more lively taxis can take you up to... more

The Sheraton is exactly as discribed in the brochure, it is very pretty and clean, the rooms are large and all seem to have sea views. The Buffet is expensive if you pay in resort £21.00 each. Wee decided on ala carte which was really great as we could have what we really wanted and main's were around £8. My... more

Although cautious about Gambia (as a single woman NOT looking for romance!) and a Sheraton hotel(bad experience in Egypt)..my experience as a single traveller to this hotel was a revelation. The most impressive and long lasting impression will be the welcoming nature of ALL staff I met. They were charming, helpful, polite and respectful..nothing was too much trouble. Any minor... more

Having read the reviews of this hotel, we were prepared for its out-of-the way location; in fact, this was just what we wanted. We had booked a week's half-board and were looking for a relaxing, non-demanding one-week break after a very stressful work period. This was exactly what we had. The room was great - very spacious and the comfort... more

We have just returned from a week's stay at The Sheraton which clearly isn't a 5* at all - 4* perhaps (on a good day) but certainly not 5! We found the staff to be friendly and helpful unlike their leaders who had two gears, very slow and stop! We reported a few problems (a bug in the nicoise salad,... more
