Pros:

La vista espectacular de la playa y las instalaciones en general, la piscina mirando al mar. Calidad del desayuno y cena. Amabilidad del personal. La limpieza.

Cons:

Una tontería, el baño es más de batalla comparado con la habitación pero limpio y funcional

De beste kwaliteit en de beste service vind je hier!
Pros:

Het is de 2de keer dat mijn man en ik in dit hotel van een heerlijke 10-daagse vakantie hebben genoten, en we komen met veel vertrouwen de volgende keer terug! De vernieuwde appartementen zijn modern, comfortabel en stijlvol ingericht. Altijd warm water, altijd elektriciteit, altijd airco, altijd lekker eten, altijd een helder zwembad, altijd en overal kraaknet, mooie tuinen, het personeel altijd attent, vriendelijk, hulpvaardig! Top chefs in de keuken! En daarbovenop heeft dit hotel de perfecte ligging (niet te dicht en niet te ver van de bruisende Split), de mooiste zonsondergangen en vlak aan een heel proper en uitgestrekt strand waar je in alle rust kan wandelen. Dankjewel en proficiat aan het volledig team om mijn man en mij een droomvakantie/huwelijksreis te bezorgen! Dankzij jullie behoort het hotel tot één van de beste in The Gambia! Keep up the good work! Love! Veerle & Yaya

Little Gambian Family
Pros:

The staffs were exceptional, the place was clean, the restaurant and the staff there were all perfect 👌 . I love the pool it was clean the garden were cleaned and well taken care of , security 24-7 the place was really relaxed and comfortable.

Cons:

The Internet was completely bad I had to buy my own router and sim card to complete my business stuff. The double standard rooms where not spacious enough for a family, but manageable. A small kitchen with some facilities like microwave, wasser cooker, cafe machine will definitely be perfect for the place .

Pros:

The waiters don't know what they are serving, the waiters' attitude is disgraceful, there is no room cleaning but there are many cleaners who are always making noise and not letting you rest, there is no hot water in the shower, I will definitely not return to this hotel again.

Cons:

Nothing, the place is a real disappointment

Really poor value for money.
Pros:

Good location right on the beach. Beautifully landscaped. Staff in the restaurant were super friendly

Cons:

We stayed here two separate times. First time was an all inclusive deluxe room for €170 which was awful value for money as the dinner and breakfast buffet was really poor and no way the room was otherwise worth that money.
Second time was during low season so we paid €70 for a standard room which was a lot more reasonable however there are better hotels nearby for the same money.
Staff in reception are not friendly.
