Roc Heights Lodge

10/10 Excellent

My first time at Roc Heights and I will definitely go again next time I am in Gambia. Omar and his team ensured that everything was done to keep me happy in the hotel and safe outside as a solo woman. In a quiet location away from the tourists but near enough to the beach for a short wander, the hotel is a haven of peace with delightful gardens either to eat breakfast of just sit and relax after a day's work. Most of the guests are working so the place is empty during the day. I didn't try the...

It was a nice and quiet location at Serrekunda. But in my first night some people held a wedding banquet downstairs, with loud music until midnight. The room was huge with super big balcony and unbeatable sea view. The restaurant served good food and I had all my breakfast, lunch and dinner there. But I needed to pay for the meals in cash in local currency, unless I could work out how to use the local mobile phone payment app, which I could not. I loved the direct access to the beach. But...

Absolutely wonderful experience at Coco Ocean Resort & Spa! From the moment we arrived, everything was exceptional. A special thank you to a staff named Lamin. who, despite being ready to go home late at night, went above and beyond to make sure I had something to eat when I arrived hungry. His kindness and hospitality will never be forgotten. The hotel was clean, the rooms were beautiful, and all the staff were amazing. A special mention to my room attendant, Mr Alpha, who was simply the...

Oh man, where do I start? Lemme start with Mariam, the ever helpful, cheerful receptionist. She is a credit to Metzy. Give her a raise, I say! Baboucarr was another receptionist who went over and beyond for me. Barrow from Housekeeping kept my room squeaky clean. The hotel is well located, walking distance from the beach which was handy as I was there every Wednesday jogging. The rooms, well mine, was L shaped and spacious. So spacious I could do my floor exercises right there and not outside...

Great little find, big rooms, advise don't pay the extra for a studio with kitchen as not req. They provide you with a fridge in the standard room and the rooms are big. The food was lovely and above all staff were always polite, helpful and smiling. Onlyy 300 dalasi return into the strip. But many other hotels and restaurants walkable. Fatou , fruit lady gave great portions and Babu juice man was very friendly and delicious juice.

Being out first time in Gambia, we didn't know what to expect but the hotel made us feel at ease, safe and overall made the holiday a lot better. The staff are so friendly and welcoming, the UK can learn from these guys when it comes to customer service. The rooms were not bad at all, comfy beds, good ventilation/AC, nice views to the garden/pool/beach. The swimming pool bit was great and so was the entertainment. Food was also delicious, would highly recommend it to anyone! Also, it's nice...

Senegambia Beach Hotel came recommended by a family member and it didn't disappoint. It served as a perfect base to explore this incredible country. The hotel is set in a perfect location on the beach with the jungle spilling into the grounds, there's daily visits from native monkeys, vultures, tropical birds and the odd nile monitor. It's incredible to have this kind of wildlife in and around the hotel grounds when you wake up in the morning. Breakfast offered a good selection and there are...
