Over the years, we have visited and featured many different places across the country, from established hotels along the coast to smaller guesthouses, lodges and unique stays away from the main tourist areas. Some are ideal for families, while others are better suited to couples, groups, long stays or travellers looking to explore a different side of The Gambia.
We also believe that where you stay can be part of travelling responsibly. Choosing locally owned accommodation, supporting businesses that employ local people and spending time in the communities you visit can help ensure that tourism benefits the people and places that make The Gambia so special.
There is no single type of accommodation that is right for everyone. Location, atmosphere, facilities, access to the beach, food options and the surrounding area can all make a difference. That is why we have put together a selection of places worth exploring, giving you a starting point when planning your stay.
Take a look through our selection and discover some of the accommodation options you can consider for your next trip to The Gambia — and perhaps find a place where you can feel at home while contributing positively to the destination you are visiting.
