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. |
