Coconut Residence

What an amazing find this hotel turned out to be, set in beautiful tropical gardens and only a short stroll away from the beach. This hotel has comfort and joy in the bucket loads, it's one of the only hotels I found in the Gambia that will provide a multitude of different choices for breakfast from a full English to smashed avocado and loads of toast, mushrooms and cheese omelets, and the food in the restaurant is superb. As for the accommodation we'll it was defo 5 * everything you could want and smart tv,s so if you feel a little homesick you can sit back and watch the reruns on TV, I watched James Martin's sat before going out to get me in the mood for food. The pools are not massive but well looked after and not over crowded. The staff were above the normal and I stayed in quite a few of the 4/5 star hotels. You are well looked after here and the management team will make sure you are looked after to the highest level, I stayed in most hotels over the past 20 years of coming to Gambia and the coconut residence is on my top list. The beds are comfortable too and if you have problems with mobility this place is perfect, their are loads of ground floor terrace villas and hardly a step in sight around the grounds. I will definitely be back soon
