Good Points

Relaxed and easy-going hotel. The staff are friendly, helpful, and are encouraged to talk to guests unlike some hotels. Prices are good at the bars and restaurant. Pool is great. Good entertainment. So nice we went back 10 times!


Bad Points

Was some hassle outside (2003) but Govt clampdown may have stopped it.


General Comments

Bakau, African Village Hotel - More African in feel than many other European-style hotels in the Gambia. Rooms very basic but the laid-back atmosphere in the hotel more than makes up for the lack of frills. My wife and I have been many times and keep bumping into the same people year after year which tells you somthing. Handy for fishing bait and tackle shop.
