We have just returned from a wonderful relaxing break at this hotel. We had a lovely clean room, with fresh sheets each day. The staff at the hotel were very helpful and very friendly, we even explored the local village with one of them which I was so glad we did. It wasn't for the faint hearted as some of... more

The hotel is at the very tip of the Gambia, well away from the 'social centre' of Banjul (Senegambia). The area around the hotel has very little to offer. There are a (very small) handful of restaurants, and a couple of shops, but not much more. Bear in mind that most places are closed outside of the main tourist season,... more

Have just returned from a weeks holiday at the Ocean Bay Hotel. The pool is lovely and the room was a good size, with a mini-bar.

Even the food was superb and for someone like me whos very fussy, they had plenty of choice... more

Myself & my partner stayed here for a week in March and really enjoyed it. The staff were so nice they really looked after us, any time we flinch sitting by the pool they would just be straight over to see if we wanted a drink or somthing to eat. It was very very hot some days hitting 32 was... more
