The Gambia Top Ten Hotels

The following hotels, resorts, lodges, and guest houses in The Gambia are highly recommended (in no particular order):

1. Coco Ocean Resort and Spa.
Built only a few years ago, with Moroccan-inspired architecture and furnishings, the opulence and luxuriousness here is obvious. Royal suites, beach suites, and various other villa-type rooms are available, some with private pools. Even if you don't stay overnight, try out one of the many excellent spa services such as the Moroccan Hamman or have a drink in the cool lounge.
