Lodges in Serekunda

Th whole site is very beautiful, well managed, clean, diverse and natural. You can also meet nice people staying there, and the staff are very nice. I loved the owners and their energy as well.

First of all Jinack Lodge crew is super super nice. We felt like home. Place is amazing - close to the beach and we listened ocean waves whole night. Food was delicious!

I stayed at Bosofet for a week. The breakfast was very nice. The hosts asked what I like for breakfast and met my needs in detail. I like to start the morning with a cup of tea and every morning, when I came out to my veranda, there was a flask with hot tea ready for me. As I was enjoying my tea, overlooking the sea, did a generous fruit plate arrive. Soon after that a plate with fresh bread, Spanish omelette and coffee. This breakfast kept me going for many hours. You can also buy lunch and dinner at Bosofet, which I did many times. Fresh fish from the nearby fish market, homemade chips, potatoes, rice, vegetables and nice sauces. I ate so well the whole week and was never ill, despite this being my first time in Africa, which proves that their food hygiene is good. This lodge is the last of a few lodges along a beach road. It makes it a secluded paradise beach with beautiful plants and several places so sit under, with sofas, sunbeds and parasols. The sandy beach and the sea is lovely, I swam every day. If you want company, then stroll over to the bar and meet other people. They can also inform you of things that are happening in the local area. The people who are running this lodge are very hospitable and welcoming. They are sensitive to your needs and will do their best to meet them. If you want to go somewhere you just ask them to organise a taxi for you, which helps you to feel safe. I truly recommend a stay at Bosofet Beach and Creek Lodge. Perhaps you have heard the saying “The smiling coast of Africa”? Well – it’s true – I smiled the whole week! And I am going back this June-August. Staying there for almost six weeks!

It was already a excitement journey to come there. The lodge is located next to the beach, and next to a beautiful nature “ park”. Sheriffo the manager did all, more then all to make us happy ! He really took good care of us, I never had that experience in other lodges in the Gambia!

It was a beautiful haven from the hustle and bustle outside. It was clean and the suite was very comfortable.

Jason and Sarah were so welcoming and friendly and were perfect hosts. Bar staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble. .

Nice peaceful place, good breakfast, friendly and helpful staff. Only 5min walk from the mainroad.

If you want to feel safe, peace and tranquillity this is the place to be. The birds singing songs in the morning is the best thing to wake up to and the sound of crickets at night are so pleasant. The rooms are spacious and cleaned daily. I highly recommend having dinner at their place since it’s most likely the very best food in town. Oliver and his significant other will make sure that you feel comfortable in every way. I’m forever grateful for meeting Oliver, family and friends. You won’t regret your stay!

Greg & Maria are wonderful, warm hosts who instantly made us feel relaxed & at home. By the end of our two- nights stay we felt part of the family. Evergreen is a beautifully designed & tranquil oasis, with lots of personal touches. The food was authentic & delicious. Greg is a coffee-connoisseur providing us with ample, real coffee! We cannot wait to return, & will stay for much longer next time.

Amazing place, real beautiful African nature around. Our room was cozy, very clean, made and decorated with love. Great breakfast. We really enjoyed our stay and will highly recommend this place for travellers who loves nature and wish to explore real Africa with comfortable stay
