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.  |
