Coco Ocean Resort

This is the latest addition to the luxury hotels batch dotted along the Gambia's Atlantic coast resort at Bijilo beach. The quality accommodation, which was developed by the Coconut Residence owners, has now opened. It is set on a section of unspoilt golden sands which is fringed with palms. The 17 luxurious suites are enclosed in buildings which have been designed with a strong Moroccan influence with its sharp pointed semi-domes and are set in landscaped tropical gardens. The emphasis at the hotel is on various holistic, open-air therapies and treatments while at the same time delivering the kind of personal hotel service which you would come to expect. Like its cousin establishment restaurant service includes an a la carte menu from internationally trained chefs offering a variety of sumptuous meals in Moorish surroundings. >>>

Coconut Residence

This is truly a personalised 'palace' and one of The Gambia's grandest and finest luxury hotels, exclusive in its sheer sumptuousness and rates. Characterised by its off pink villas set in a Southern plantation style of palms. Within the villas you will find special extras such as tables of fruit, arabesque motifs and distinctive architraves and pediment shades on windows. The famous suave Avocado Restaurant is half open-air under a canopy supported by coconut trunks. It overlooks the cloverleaf shaped main swimming pool. The 30 or so suites have full AC, some have their own private pools and poster beds. Other lavish comforts which you would come to expect are bathrobes, slippers, hairdryers, a mini-fridge, king or queen sized beds, toiletries as well as a butler service. There are split-level bathrooms and showers which are clad in marble enclosures. The downside is that it is located on the main road and some distance to the beach but a new private shuttle service regularly takes tourists to the nearest beach. >>>

Mandina

The sophisticated eco-retreat is a private lodge catering for the discerning visitor and is nestled, or rather floating, in mangroves on the edge of a river tributary which runs through 1,000 ha of unspoilt wilderness. No expense has been spared in the construction of the accommodation which delivers a high standard of comfort and service for up to 12 paying guests. Even their swimming pool has been designed in an irregular shape to blend in as much as possible to its surroundings. Each of their beds is a 4 poster, handmade bed laid with the finest cotton white linen. The food service is in al fresco style and includes a daily talk with the chef about your day's meals which can be served in your room. There are plenty of walkways and private terraces to allow you to take in the scenery while enjoying some sunbathing. The only downside is that children under 16 are not allowed. >>>

Ngala Lodge

It is essentially a panoramic luxury mansion located on a secluded cliff edge in Fajara overlooking the Atlantic Ocean; offering spectacular sea views and set on 1 acre of tropical gardens with open sided vistas. The suites are sumptuous, spacious, individually decorated & come in 1 or 2 bedrooms. Guest rooms are extravagantly decorated, have king sized beds and a quality of finishing that is second to none. Guests can choose to dine on their own private verandas basso or at the renowned restaurant which serves much sought after gastronomic delights featuring an a la carte dinner menu which changes each tourist season. The main building is a where the main luxury rooms are housed and is converted from an old ambassadorial residence. The lodge offers excellent standards of service and is ideally suited for for visitors who want quality accommodation coupled with a personal touch while allowing guests to demand a good degree of individual choice. There is of course air conditioning in all rooms but also there is a choice of suites with Jacuzzis or hot tubs. The only downside is that swimming in the sea should take into account the tides. >>>

Sheraton Hotel

The resort spa is set in a truly tropical setting on the beach at Brufut. Easily recognised by its elegant and distinct buildings it is set in a large tastefully manicured lawns, in a self-enclosed area, and has direct views out to sea. The main reception lobby is impressive being a blend of glittering sculptures and marble cladding. As one would come to expect from the Sheraton there has been no compromise on the comfort of guest and rooms are of course tastefully furnished to the highest international standards and offer spectacular sea views. Their infinity swimming pool is enormous and distinctly shaped while having the advantage of just being a few metres to the beach. Though there a many steps leading to the lower levels there are two glass encased lifts which can take guest up to the upper level living quarters. >>>
