Harmony Resort Boutique Hotel, hotel in Kotu

Set in Banjul, 300 metres from Bijilo Beach, Harmony Resort Boutique Hotel offers accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a shared lounge.

Apart from the initial disinterested greeting by the night man the staff were very helpful and friendly. The facilities look like they could be good, but I was the only guest and I felt like I was staying in a hotel that was actually closed.

    The lodges are comfortable with ensuite bathroom and shower.

    The lodges are comfortable with ensuite bathroom and shower. There isn't AC but was plenty comfortable enough with a ceiling fan. There is hot running water in the room when you need to have a warm shower although most of the time I took a cool shower. I moved here from one of the 'Hotel Castles by the Sea' that were overcrowded and overpriced for the standard of accommodation there. Kotu Island lodge presents a friendly, personal and quiet atmosphere. You can chat with Terry, the owner who is a very nice man. True Gent! Its only a few minutes walk to the beach and you get the great atmosphere of living in amongst the community. I wholly recommend a stay here. Thak you Terry. You are a great host.

    Everything was perfect but there is little chance to come...

    Everything was perfect but there is little chance to come back because of the most boring people in Africa you will meet on street on the sunbeds, on the beach, in the supermarket. My brother, my family, one big family, they have no work and they dont want to work, just to bother you. Old laidies like that attention which is awful to see

    Lovely beachside with many cafes and restaurants within walking distance. Friendly locals and nice relaxed atmosphere. Raggainights on fridays at Dominos on the beach are musts. Begin the evening at the restaurant “Jamaica” nearby. Make sure to visit the chrokodile pool in Bakau and the market in Serakunda. For easy transportations use the green taxis.

    We loved the property. It is really well taken care of, there is attention to detail. The gardens are wonderful, the staff very friendly. There is a charming restaurant next to the property. It is an oasis of calm. The bed was comfortable, it was good to have mosquito nets at the window so that they stay opened at night, the swimming pool although small was great with sun lounger with padding, the food is good, the massage next door very good, We had a wonderful enjoyable restful week at Bakotu.

    Attractive looking hotel. Facing nice stretch of beach. Ample sized room with balcony. Had to take breakfast in sister hotel next door due to Covid cutbacks. It’s just a five minute walk to Kunta Kinteh beach bar which is open till late for dinner; also can arrange nice birdwatching tour at nearby Kotu Creek (Reception can phone the Birdwatchers’ Assn office for you to organise it).

    I recently stayed at this hotel, attracted by its beautiful landscape, pool, and overall grounds. The staff at the front desk and in the restaurants were incredibly accommodating, making the experience enjoyable. The food at the restaurant consistently impressed me, and the breakfast offered a variety of options

    Breakfast is good, not much variaty but for African standars is very good( they have pancakes and fried omelettes). Personal at the hotel is great. I recommend for the price. Trust me it was my third time in The Gambia and done many hotels in Senegal also. It´s in front of the beach and the area is good.

    Exceptional staff, everyone was super friendly and helpful! The food was good and reasonably priced. Within walking distance to the beach. Look up the address on Google Maps, Booking.com is one street off at the moment.

    The hotel is similar to other hotels in the area, nice swimming pool, friendly staff, location close to the sea and quite clean. In this case, it is worth noting that the bathrooms were recently refurbished.

    The female staff were rude, however the male staff members were much more polite and helpful. The hotel was close to the strip and very accessible. Main pool was clean and the reception area.
