Review:
The Fajara resort was built in 1971 / 1972 and
is perched on one of The Gambia's most panoramic
sites where the cliff gently slopes down to
the beach. Its main accommodation block is on
3 floors which is rimmed by a barbed wire fence
which is 10 foot high. However, it is perhaps
one the country's most disheartening hotels
having suffered from many years of neglect and
fluctuating ownership.
The 'New' room blocks have for many years remained
un-finished and occasional attempts have been
made at refurbishment to try to revive its fortunes
but to little avail. The most recent upgrade
is the monumental entrance facing the Atlantic
Boulevard which resembles the July 22nd Arch
in Banjul. Room rates are difficult to ascertain.
In 2000 Airtours dropped it from its destination
resorts which was followed by the UK's First
Choice tour operator. However, if you are not
put off by standards but are inclined towards
location and views then this place should be
ideal for you.
