Perfect throughout. Even better than what one can expect from the pictures. Delayed arrival from Dakar (turned out to be over 5 hours with very poor information), and the driver was waiting for us at the airport. Arrived close to midnight at the hotel and we were still welcomed by several staff 😀. Excellent setting for breakfast (which was very very nice), relaxing, and enjoying sunsets over Banjul. Urban arranged access to car and driver whenever needed. As such we could explore the area, visit beaches and restaurants. Departure from Rooftop was at 4 AM in the morning. Again, there is no problem at all for Urban and his team. So happy we opted for this boutique hotel over one of the nearby beach resorts. As Urban has an agreement with one of them, his guests can use the facilities anyhow. Perfect again! Overall, a very enjoyable place and very likely the best option for a stay in The Gambia 🇬🇲.

This is a beautiful place to relax for a few days. The staff is exceptionally helpful and friendly. The rooms are big and nicely furnished. The provided Moskito Net over the bed gives added comfort, also I did not see any. I will definitely stay there again next time I am in Gambia.

    What a great find, boutique really sums it up, only a few rooms, feels vey unique and special, the owner meets and greets and very quickly all the staff get to know you, and make an effort to as well - whether laying your normal place for breakfast through to knowing your preferred drinks. There is a trust bar and Saney even went and got my fav soft drink from the store for me. Saney is a real gem, as an owner he really cares about his staff, personal development and making Gambia a better place, I loved chatting to him and getting his views. Plus don’t forget this is a true Ecco hotel, everything is self sustained. Room always cleaned to a high standard, I house menu for lunch and dinner is all freshly cooked with two great chefs, Rob the day time chef does a great red spiced sauce. Pool area clean and the Wi-Fi is ok - I know Saney discussed hoping to upgrade to fibre when it’s ready. So nothing put praise, small, friendly and value for money.

    I love ❤️ everything about the property. The location, size of the apartment, amenities within the apartment, room size, all the very friendly and accommodating staff who are always ready to please. The impeccable service received right from the checking in to checking out. The manager Mr Aziz was very patient and never lost composure throughout when dealing with clients.

    Welcoming reception, lovely clean room, just refurbished (a lot of Ikea!), great shower, friendly staff, lovely well-kept gardens. Good varied breakfast each day. Very handy for birdwatching locally and also walks along the sandy beach in either direction to Kololi or Cape Point.

    The lodges are comfortable with ensuite bathroom and shower.

    The lodges are comfortable with ensuite bathroom and shower. There isn't AC but was plenty comfortable enough with a ceiling fan. There is hot running water in the room when you need to have a warm shower although most of the time I took a cool shower. I moved here from one of the 'Hotel Castles by the Sea' that were overcrowded and overpriced for the standard of accommodation there. Kotu Island lodge presents a friendly, personal and quiet atmosphere. You can chat with Terry, the owner who is a very nice man. True Gent! Its only a few minutes walk to the beach and you get the great atmosphere of living in amongst the community. I wholly recommend a stay here. Thak you Terry. You are a great host.

    I came to the region for enjoying the swimming but in winter time waters may be quite cold and the air is hot only around midday till 4 p. m. so better be early if wishing to do some water sports without getting cold. The sea is warmer than pools but quite harsh.

    FOR THE SOUTH BANK OF GAMBIA 🇬🇲 CAPE POINT IS A GREAT...

    FOR THE SOUTH BANK OF GAMBIA 🇬🇲 CAPE POINT IS A GREAT LOCATION WITH MOST OTHER ATTRACTIONS CLOSE BY THAT CAN BE REACHED BY BICYCLE OR PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. IF YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN TO THE SMILING COAST OF THE GAMBIA THEN YOU ARE REALLY MISSING OUT. TRY TO MAKE A RESERVATION SOON TO DISCOVER AND EXPERIENCE IT YOURSELF. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!
