First of all: Thank you to the host and his members. They are outstanding. We also were lucky to meet gracious and helpful people from Holland and The Gambia which were in the villa by the same time. Thank you guys,- we had a wonderful time with you. The host is always keen to make guests feel comfortable and safe. If something doesn't work, he can be reached immediately and takes care of everything. Eric and his coworker are very reliable, helpful and hardworking security staff who also take care of the amazing outdoor facilities, pool, outdoor kitchen & BBQ, garden etc. The housemaids take care of the cleanliness of the rooms and common areas. It is tidy and well maintained at all times. There is also a washing machine which we could use. Sara is a very good cook. You have to try the local food. Just give her the shopping money (+tip) and tell her what you like most. She will do the shopping and prepare a delicious meal. The Wifi mostly was strong enough to complete my daily workload. Just if you sit in the garden at some corners I would recommend an extra router. All in all, highly recommended. We had a wonderful time and would love to come back.

    The apartment has everything you need like a fridge, warm water, comfortable bed and a cooking station. The location in Bijilo is perfect. Its very safe and quiet outside, even though its close to the busy areas. Its only 5 minutes walking to turntable from there you can take a car anywhere and its close to the senegambia tourist strip. Ola is a lovely host, she has positive energy and you can ask her for anything that you need.

    I really liked it, Jerome was a good host, he went out of the way to make everything good for us. Nice place, but caught a monkey trying to steal my peanuts from the living room. The monkey behaved like a small child caught in the act. Nice view.
