Here’s a polished, natural-sounding review in English: --- This was my sixth stay in a hotel in Gambia, and without a doubt the best one considering the same standard of hotels. The service was exceptionally warm and attentive, the rooms were more comfortable than anywhere I’ve stayed before, and the overall atmosphere made the experience truly relaxing. I will definitely return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for great value and a genuinely enjoyable stay.

The decore in the rooms are very unique. The downside was the bed, it had a shelf surrounding and being short it made it hard to get in and out of bed. The staff were very friendly. Breakfast was a little disappointing with not much selection to choice from. Overall a great experience and would definitely return

Quiet, peaceful, clean hotel beach resort

From the outside of the beach hotel resort, to the lobby and then the entire surrounding of the hotel area itself were very amazing and the rooms were highly comfortable. The restaurant area was nicely decorated and the foods were made cooked to order. Moreover, fresh ingredients were used and the taste were mouth watering delicious in every bite. At night, the lights lit up the entire hotel property. The pools sparkled with cleanliness and the sound of nature made it so peaceful. I wanted to stay longer, but had to return back to the USA to be with my kids. Hands down this has been one of the best clean beach hotel resorts I have vacationed at period. Love it!

The staff are the best and will go above and beyond to assist customers. The breakfast was fine. The location is excellent and within walking distance of most things you would want and need on holiday. The peacocks and other birds that live on the grounds made it a wonderful, unique place to stay. The beds are really not comfortable, unfortunately. Oh, and there seemed to be a shortage of napkins and toilet paper for some strange reason: we did however, find plenty in the shop, some 50 metres from the hotel.

Most of the staff was friendly, while one other staff refused to speak or say hello to me at breakfast time. They only wanted my room number. I eventually said hello and greated them but they seem uncomfortable. However they were more friendly to other guests than myself. So I will not be returning to Bamboo resort. They also charge for late check out by the hour and when i left my luggage at reception it was left unattended eventhough i was told someone will always be there to keep an eye. I was very disappointed

Sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Die Lage direkt am Strand ist traumhaft, man könnte allerdings einiges mehr aus diesem Hotel machen. Der Preis ist meiner Meinung nach zu hoch für die gebotene Qualität. Personal sehr freundlich, Frühstück eher durchschnittlich. Eigentlich schön mit dem Balkon im Zimmer, allerdings ist er nicht getrennt zum Nachbarzimmer. Die Zimmer könnten mal wieder renoviert werden. Der Safe ist zu klein für einen normalen Laptop. Der Schrank eher wenig zu gebrauchen. Das Hotel liegt direkt am Strand was sehr schön ist. Grundsätzlich ok, könnte preiswerter sein
