The location is good. And the staff is friendly. Enjoyed that i could contact the reception or get assistance via what's app. However I did have a mishap with my booked transport to the airport, so you have to continuously remind the staff. There were also cockroaches that came from other rooms. But otherwise a good stay and place

Superb, so quiet, efficiently run; all staff so helpful, comfy bed, we were S/C, bit basic S/c but adequate Gardens fantastic…3 pools… 2familynpool I think were were at the aged end‼️‼️😂😂😂 ‘our’ pool was only used by (4 today) usually just 6 people… I would certainly come here again… and again… and again we’ve been coming to the Gambia every year since 1990‼️‼️this is the best apartment yet. View from our balcony and a pic of someone in the pool

This resort is really beatiful, with a very nice garden, with lots of birds. The pools are nice and the beach is very nice as well. Staff is mostly friendly and helpfull. Sadly there are a few annoying factors to your stay at this location. Although there is not much that the mangement can do about it, there is a lot of noise coming from the street where the hotel is situated. There is something like a disco across the street which plays very hard music which continues till around 05.00am. It is impossible to get a rest if you are staying in one of the apartments close to the street (like "stones"). This certainly would be a reazon for me not to book at this resort again. Something what the management can do something about is the inefficiency of the restaurant. More than once it took more than an hour to get our diners served. It is a chaos and the waiters don't know which customers are being served and which are not. Breakfast was included in our case. Still time after time they tried to charge us for our breakfast once more. After we had payed for our diners and drinks at the restaurant we were charged for these again when checking out at the reception. These mistakes were all fixed with out much discussion, but it is annoying.

Kololi beach We stayed at Kololi beach for 11 days and nights over Christmas. We came with our two young daughters. We had been to the Gambia 15 years ago before we were married. We were a little apprehensive before going and not quite sure what to expect. The resort accommodation- We stayed in a bungalow (V33) which was great, spacious and clean. This is no 5 star hotel but what it is a very comfortable resort in a great location in fantastic garden setting. There are a lot of birds and the days are filled with bird song. The beach is nice and the pools were thoroughly enjoyed by our daughters, so 5 star for us. Communication- I had a number of questions before we arrived which I raised by email and Grace was exceptionally helpful in answering them and also organising a transfer. Salt - this restaurant has a lovely setting overlooking the beach, great place to sit and watch the ocean. The cocktails were excellent the food was ok. Unfortunately the service was slow, but I think it was more the time of year with the staff and kitchen being exceptionally busy. You just had to be patient. Staff - from the waiters to front desk, to the pool and beach attendants and those undertaking maintenance everyone was exceptionally polite and friendly and all were very appreciative when tipped. Overall- we would highly recommend this very relaxed resort and were looking to go back.

We were fortunate enough to be given an upgrade from standard to superior - how we wish now that we were not. Check-in was an interesting experience and despite on check-out almost being hustled out of our room by the cleaner there was no option around getting into the room early if it was ready. Not a big deal as could go use the pool and towels are provided. The room was big, clean with the bathroom a little dated with a broken handle on the door and a shower head that was a little tempremental. The biggest issue was the noise from the bar accross the road which went on to around 4am on the weekend and about 2am during the week. Not the hotels fault - and becuase we were only there a short time we didn't ask to move rooms as firstly the reason for the upgrade was the shortage of standard room and quite honestly I could not be bothered to pack and unpack again (the weekend extra time being the last 2 nights). If you are given a room in the Stones building my advice would be to ask to move to the other accomodation. While the Stones building does have it's own pool it is quite some way from the beach (and the main accomodation) and main pool area - add that to the noise from the bar (and there is a new bar being built directly oppoiste) it puts a dampner on your holiday - unless you are there to drink into the early hours then it will be perfect as you do not have far to stager back. Drinks were somehow more expensive in the top bar than the beach bar (for beer). We did not try the food but recommend the milkshakes. Overall location is good as away from the main ***** and a very short walk to the monkey park. I would only stay here again if it is was in the accomodation blocks near the main pool/beach.

We stayed at this resort as a group of nine, and very Apartments and the Nian Villa. The resort itself is a treasure. Its location is fantastic as it is very close the ***** and restaurants and bars. . The apartment suited couples and single travellers . The staff are friendly and welcoming although we felt the site manager was a little dismissive to some of our enquiries . We booked direct which saved us a little bit of money included free air-conditioning . The grounds are lovely in some areas, although some work is required around the Nian Villa . The Philip was a beautiful Hideaway, which suited a couple and two single travellers. It also accommodated the rest of our party when they came over for drinks et cetera . We all agree that we would definitely return

The staff were great very helpful and nothing was too much bother. There was a mix up about the room when we got there, we booked a twin bed but got a double bed. It was sorted by the next day which was really nice. The Wi-Fi definitely needs to be improved. When we first got there it was ok but when we moved to the top floor we couldn’t get any wi-fi in the room. The rooms are basic, the beds are HARD and no tv but to be honest I didn’t miss the tv. Would I stay again?? Yes-because the price was good/location. No-it would be nice to try others hotels on Paradise Beach and the bed was so hard.
