Nice basic accommodation in a great location. Rooms are comfortable and clean but no frills. Pool area is nice, the bar next to it is good for cheap beer and snacks. Restaurant on-site is pretty good. Air conditioning costs extra but I think it's reasonable (plus it cools off enough at night to where it's not necessary, especially for downstairs rooms). It's close to the main beaches and nightlife in Kololi and Senegambia, and getting a quick taxi to them is easy. If you're looking to hang out and relax by the pool, go to the beach, and go out at night to the restaurants and bars, Baobab Holiday Resort is a good choice.

They will squeeze every euro out of you. A/C 6 euro per night. Card machine broken so obliged to change cash against their bad rates.
Also good food poisoning in their restaurant.
Bad Wi-Fi. Works for messaging and browsing but not streaming or video calling.
Plus: Base price is not expensive, pool area is okay, most personnel very friendly. Room old and cheap, but clean.

Da jeg booket så det ut som hotellet lå ved stranda. Det gjorde det ikke! Ikke bra!! Vi måtte krysse en svær motorvei til fots med livet som innsats for å komme til stranda. Blir et annet hotell neste gang.
Hyggelig betjening, men veldig langsomt. Slitt, men koselig. Trafikkstøy fra motorveien!

The hotel is very friendly and welcoming, with good quality rooms. The guests are mostly Dutch on package holidays as an independent traveller from the UK I didn't fit into this scene but the wonderfully friendly and interesting to talk to staff meant this was no issue at all, particular thanks to Mariama whose constant smile , service and helpfulness was a pleasure to witness.
The breakfast is good too.
The only slight downside is the location not being on beachside of the road.

Erg tevreden met deze oase
Ik verbleef 2 nachten in dit hotel omdat het dichtbij een medisch centrum was waar ik moest zijn.
Het hotel was eenvoudig maar gezellig. Huisjes met telkens enkele kamers rond een gezellig zwembad.
Prima eten. Je moet wel alles cash afrekenen. Maar dat is een probleem in heel Gambia

Det funkar
Vi hade bil under vistelsen så att hotellet inte ligger precis vid Senegambia gjorde oss inget. Frukosten är extremt tråkig och enformig. Maten på restaurangen är helt okej. "Underhållningen" sådär. Rummen är ok men mygg kommer in genom springor. Handdukar är tydligen bristvara för det var inte alltid man fick nya, ibland saknades det, ibland fick man blöta nytvättade, ibland blöta som kändes som använda. En gång hade de gått in på eftermiddagen och hämtat en av våra upphängda handdukar för att ge någon annan! Inte personalens fel att ledningen inte köper in fler handdukar.. Personalen i receptionen på kväll/natten är toppen!
