Holiday rentals in Banjul

Koko guesthouse is absolutely fantastic! Sam is a great host with a wide knowledge of things to do in the local area & beyond. Had the privilege to try lots of delicious local cuisine. Beach, shops and bars are all within reach via walking or short drive. Thanks Sam for being a wonderful and friendly host, made my time in Gambia truly memorable. 10/10 🇬🇲♥️🙏🏼🇬🇲♥️🙏🏼

The apartment is located fairly close to the Senegambia strip where the main tourist hotels, restaurants and money changers are located. There is a very good local supermarket that sells all the commodities required for self catering. Nearby are a few restaurants but not a great choice. The beach access is quite difficult for anyone with mobility issues. There is a rough uneven track combined with a steep gradient before you reach the beach. Once you have reached the beach you can walk for miles in either direction. Alongside the property is the famous monkey park. Although several tourists suggested a visit there was little need as the monkeys came us us! Although they are cute to look at, care must be taken to avoid leaving doors and windows open as they will take full advantage.

Staying at Fatou’s was like staying with family. I got such a warm welcome and they were all so lovely and accommodating. Great and comfortable rooms with everything you need, close to a lot of local authentic restaurants and a 20 minute walk to the beach, but with taxis and tuktuks always available if that’s preferred. Fatou was at hand all the time and helped with everything from finding good places, teaching you how to bargain at the markets and how to get to where you wanted to go. Highly recommend for a relaxing and authentic stay to make the most out of your Gambian experience!

Die Unterkunft zu finden schien zunächst schwierig, da der Fahrer es gewohnt war, eine mündliche Weg Beschreibung zu bekommen. Es gibt keine Straßennamen! Und!: Ich hatte mit meiner dtsch Simcard keinen Empfang. Birgit hat auf meine Nachricht über das Handy vom Fahrer - wie immer - schnell reagiert… und erklärte dem Fahrer den Weg. So ging es perfekt! Sehr schön ruhig gelegen! Ich fühlte mich sicher!! Frühstück sehr liebevoll und abwechslungsreich! Auf dem Balkon mit etwas Einblick in das nachbarschaftliche Wohnen. Mein Zimmer war sehr geräumig, alles bestens! Schon vor meiner Ankunft regelmäßig Kontakt! Birgit spürt sofort, was man braucht: Ob Ruhe oder das Gegenteil, Infos und schnelle Alternativen, falks etwas nicht geht, Infis über das gambische Leben,….Verhaltensregeln, die gut funktionieren,…. Man ist bei Birgit und Amadou super aufgehoben!!!

I wish more were like you. So responsible and caring for your place and how it's presented. I just got settled in back home so my review is a little late but I believe this is a great place and very nice location. Rakey is serious about making sure you're satisfied. She is so accommodating. We were disappointed about the pool, at first but then it ended up not being a big deal. I would definitely stay again and I wished I could have stayed there longer. The place is clean, well stocked with everything you need, although there's no AC ceiling fans kept us comfortable I believe AC may be installed in future. Oh and the neighbors are so pleasant and helpful too. It's a super place to be

An incredible stay from start to finish! Even before my booking, Bala was super responsive and helpful, a great first impression that carried through the entire stay. I arrived at 3 AM and were so impressed that airport pickup was still arranged without any issues. The property itself is stunning, like a private resort tucked away in a quiet, peaceful compound. No noise, just serenity and beauty all around. The staffs are attentive and friendly, always quick to respond and help out. Bala was also very open to adjustments, making the whole experience feel very personal and comfortable. One of the best features is the convenience: if you're too tired or lazy to go out, you can order food, drinks, even water, and it’ll be delivered right to your doorstep, super handy! The only very minor issue we experienced was with the laundry, the drainage didn’t flow well, and there's limited space for hanging clothes. But honestly, compared to everything else that was offered, it's barely wort

This was a wonderful stay. The room was amazing. The doors opened up onto the beach so you really hear the ocean and see it from your bed. Lots of space in the room and lovely hot shower. Kembas the hosy was exeptional. He went above and beyond his duties. He organised all my trips and escorted me, along with his lovely taxi driver Osman. His team are spectacular. Always making sure you are ok. They even built me a camp fire in the evening which was lovely. It is a bit breezy in the evning being so close to the coast so bring something warm with you. I felt totally safe and cared for as a solo traveller. These guys are really lovely. Kembas has such a good heart and he is so funny and entertaing too. You will love it.

If you want really enjoy life in Gambia ,you are in right place.This isnt turistic area, it is real Gambia for Gambian people,but you can enjoy european comfort as running water ,electricity almost non stop and internet. Location in map ,which show AIRBNB is not correct ,house is 7 km from beach ,but for your pocket it is better becouse area is much cheaper that coastal turistic places.beach area -you can go by TUK TUK for plus minus 20 dallasi(0.3 euros). It is walking distance to bus station and exchange offices plus market.
