Review:
The
Sunbeach Hotel started in
1971 under the name of
Sunwing which was one of
the Swedish Vingresor's
portfolio. This changed in
1999 when Airtours, having
acquired Vingresor had it
re-named. It was designed
by Peter Gibbons and
renovated in 1989.
Within the Cape Point area
of Gambia
there is a mini-market,
craft market, the Ocean Bay
hotels plus a few small
restaurants, exchange
bureaus and a tourist
market within walking
distance.
It is situated in a
hoteliers' ideal location,
facing the Atlantic Ocean's
beach
and the river-mouth. It has
one of the best beaches of
all the resorts, a
picturesque curve of fine
white sand with thatched
umbrella shades. The
main block and leisure
areas filled with many a
tacky fun facility, and the
200 rooms in distinctive
terraces widespread over 8
acres of colourful gardens
had become a massively
package chain establishment
which Airtours/FTi operated
for just the 1999-2000
holiday season then it
closed down.
Sunbeach Hotel is
among the better standard
tourist accommodations in
Gambia,
blending in with its
surroundings, bright and
colourfully decorated.
It is a good choice for
young families because it
has superb facilities such
a its well laid out pool
and play area, with a
number of games and
activities for kids.
The restaurant serves
standard European cuisine;
the rooms, though not
large, are at ground level
only and are comfortably
furnished with satellite TV
and A/C.
