We made reservations for 2 rooms to be next to each other with connecting door as we were with 4 children and told them ahead of time but when we arrived they could not open connecting door until next day which was upsetting. Rooms are outdated. Property is beautiful and in very lively part of town. You can walk to restaurants and clubs.

A very enjoyable stay
The hotel is in a bustling tourist area but not as noisy as I feared. Easy to get around. Taxis are cheap. Lots of restaurants and cafes immediately outside. Very good breakfast selection. Helpful staff. Very clean room and clean around the hotel and grounds.

Second time staying here and it was just as good as the first. The service is impeccable and they really take care of their guests and the property.
The tiniest bug was that last time I rented an apartment that included a kettle for heating water. This time there wasn't one in the room as they're only in the apartments and not the other rooms. The staff found one for me so no issue at all really, just to let you know if it matters.

Property was peaceful, staff excellent. A very good taxi service offered via the taxi controller at the hotel entrance. Bad points were: lack of plug points in rooms which were badly appointed. Very old fashioned and would not meet the 3 star standard given in the UK.

It was an amazing hotel. Staff was courteous and friendly. My only suggestion is that with the housekeeping staff as many tourists come to the hotel they may or may not need a housekeeper to iron some shirts at a moment's notice therefore more people need to be hired so that the housekeeping can have attendants offering a 24/7 service

Beautiful hotel surrounded with lots of greenery. I enjoyed hearing the different types of birds early in the morning with their melodies. Very clean, quiet and conveniently located. The housekeeper Mari Mendy was amazing. My only issue was with some of the security staff members as they were a bit unprofessional. Overall I had a great time.

I have stayed at the Senegambia Beach Hotel many times before and it never disappoints. The staff all around the hotel are friendly and polite and can’t do enough to make your stay an enjoyable one. Jarra and Kemo at the beach pool are amazing guys who take care of everyone around the pool and are happy in their work. The breakfast is a various array of delicious food with egg and pancake chefs, you will not be disappointed! Can’t wait to return!

Great location and excellent landscaping. Rooms need general upgrade. Not even a bottle of drinking water was provided. It rained a lot diring our stay. They need to provide umbrellas between reception and rooms for guests.
