-The wifi is terrible -No phones in the rooms, so you have always have to walk a distance outside to the reception if you needed help with something. -No television

The location is great, just by the beach. Loved the beach, not too crowded. The place felt safe too.

My original room was opposite a noisy nightclub, had to pay more to move to a (very nice) room closer to the beach. Service was appaulingly slow - took over 40 minutes to bring two teas.

Very pleasant environment, room was good, pools and beach were lovely. Some healthier choices on the restaurant menu.

The location of the Stones building block Too noisy . We upgraded to the Springs apartments and these were far better. Didn't like the fact that there were no changing facilities at the pool. Had to use the toilet to change out of wet swimwear, which was not ideal. The pool and pathways around the site could use some much need maintenance. Bar staff in the salt restaurant very slow.

The grounds were fantastic, good location to the beach. Guys around pool getting sunbeds and towels for you were great. Location of the hotel brilliant. The size of the apartments in the Springs block were a good size. Clean but tired.

The room was full of cockroaches, coming from the bedsheets and everywhere....we had such a bad experience at night. We returned to the apartment after the reception had closed, and we had to contact the security where they called the boss/ manager to give us another room. They were super helpful, and I understand that in such an area it's normal to have insects, but the amount of cockroaches that we had in the room, and how they were coming out of bed, gave us a nightmare.

It was near the beach with a lot of restaurants around.

Music can be very loud at night. I believe it comes from night clubs across the street. Some nights I couldn’t sleep until 3 or 4 am. This is the only reason I didn’t give the place a 10/10. There was also a time the water shut off in the building for an hour. They fixed it though but it was unexpected and an inconvenience.

Nice staff. Convenient location. A lot of shops and restaurants were close by. Police checkpoints also keep the place secure.

Noise! Inside the resort due to construction but also from very loud music across the road - until 5 or 6 in the morning

Location, good access to beach

We booked a room for 3, but when we arrived it was for 2. Just an extra bed was added, but no towels, no third chair on the balcony (this also never arrived after asking), towels for 2 (had to ask twice for an extra set)

The location is excellent

Shower facilities could be improved and basic toiletries should be provided.

Decent, clean and comfortable

A bit of an ant invasion in the apartment. Bit pricey for food and drinks.

Beautiful quiet and nice location. We slept in the stone apartments which were close to the Senegambia strip, so a little noise from the clubs and bars. But the resort itself has a wonderful garden, lots of animal life and friendly staff. Would definitely book again, but I would go for the garden houses since we travel with children and like it quiet at night.

They forget the water in the room

The room the property

The hotel has changed somewhat compared to our previous visit in 2022. Back then, the 'Sands' section wasn't finished. Part of expansion sure, but whether it's a good thing.... It detracts from the charm of Kololi Beach Resort and is already more reminiscent of your standard 'all inclusive hotel' in European destinations. The Sands Restaurant has become terribly crowded in the evenings because of this expansion. So in the evening, we invariably fled to the Strip for something to eat. The beach area, which in 2022 was still for Kololi Beach guests (by the way, anno 2024, still so stated in their 'welcome brochure'), was now apparently 'only accessible for Sands guests', we were told by a staff member when we wanted to spend an afternoon there. We 'had' to lie on the lawn, this was for Kololi Beach guests though.... Nonsense. This while Sands guests could use Kololi Beach's pools? If one wants to differentiate between kololi Beach and 'sands', this should be extended throughout.

Beautiful hotel with excellent location. Already 2nd time we have come here on holiday, and we invariably come back here next time! Very friendly staff who also approach you personally, they know their clientele. First time staying in the 'stones' studio, was a lesser experience because of the nearby GTS bar (playing very loud music until the early hours, ideal for going out but less so for people who want their peace and quiet). Now stayed in the "Kololi Villas", slightly more expensive but still very excellent value for money, also peace and quiet guaranteed! Highly recommended

Construction works nearby, so there's noise during the day.

Great Location. Friendly staff. Quiet in the night

Nothing at all

The resort is located in a prime area, covering a vast, perfectly maintained grassy field that leads to a private beach. It has several pools spread across the entire property, which are rarely crowded. The tranquility is complete, and the sense of peace is absolute. Great care has been taken with all the facilities.

The room was at most mid range, not more. The adjacent beach was nice, but the problem was that locals also could be there and they were. As soon as you get to the beach people come and talk to you in order to sell things.

Nice area around the hotel buildings and the layout of the area. Nice pool and also nice restaurant. Nice people in the reception. Probably a great place for being in the Gambia.

The apartment was neat. The staff were polite and friendly. Grace was helpful as well when i had to modify my reservation.

The loud music from across the streets could be a nuisance to sleep sometimes

The natural environment, the beach, the cleanliness especially and that it was at the center of touristic activities.

No television in the facility

Everything was great

Service could be a little slow at times but on the whole I would definitely book again

The Breakfast was excellent however on some occasions the service was a little slow

A bit concerned about the bathroom window. It didn’t lick in the inside and could be opened from the outside so I was a bit worried about security.

Beautifully maintained and clean.

A little far from the beach. Stuffy smell in room. Some maintenance needed. Eg shower door, toilet..

Location. Top bar. Diamond, the server, was exceptional.

Villa 9 did not have wifi access, the AC did not work, and the fridge wouldn’t close properly

We stayed in two different Villas. Both were similar levels of cleanliness and quietude. However, Villa 16 had good amenities and villa 9 did.
