Amazing Staff from The Front Desk to the Housekeeping Team and every Hotel Employee i had met they were so friendly and made sure I had a very relaxing vacation. The Pool area was so clean, and the hotel room bed was very comfortable. The Manager is present and very approachable. Thankyou to everyone for the lovely vacation stay.

From the walking in to the Reception Desk the Staff was very friendly. The Hotel itself is abit outdated, the room I was provided had very comfortable bed and nice cotton linen. I had decided to come to this hotel for its location to explore The Gambia. Mr. Alaa Hamid and his team, ensured my holiday was a pleasant vacation. I will consider The Kairaba Hotel for my next visit.

La plage est superbe. La rue qui mène à l'hôtel offre tous les services qu'un voyageur peut rechercher. La piscine est également très bien. Je fais rarement de commentaire sur mes séjours, mais je le fais pour cette fois ci par ce que cela vaut la peine.

After booking i contacted the hotel and arranged our room. It was perfect, quiet cool and with a beautiful sea view. The bed was comfy and we slept well. The gardens and pool are beautiful. I have known this hotel for over 20 years and its fortune has varied. It now seems on the up again and i will deffinatly book again.

The staff was amazing. I got a room with a garden view and turned into a bird watcher. It was so beautiful. Breakfast had an omelette station. Nice pool. Access to the beach just a few minutes walk. I will return.

I had a wonderful experience at the Kairaba Hotel in Gambia. The location is perfect, right on the beach and close to the vibrant Senegambia Strip. The gardens are beautiful and full of life, with peacocks and monkeys adding a unique touch. The staff are incredibly friendly and always ready to help, making me feel truly welcome. The pool area is relaxing, and the atmosphere overall is peaceful and enjoyable. If you want a place to unwind and enjoy Gambia’s beauty, Kairaba Hotel is a great choice!”

Kairaba is a great property. The location is excellent. On the one side you have the Atlantic Ocean and its beach and at the other end you have the famous Senegambia strip. However, this once icon of Gambia's hotel seem to have lost its mojo. Service is ok. Rooms are fine, maintenance, well, things work. But the place jyst doesn't have its spark no more.

Service levels have really plometted at this property. The AC in our room was not working snd it took 2 trips to reception before our room was switched after midnight. We were 2 guests but the first room we had had one towel and one bottle of water. Breakfast was below average and service is generally below expectation for what was once Gambia's flagship hotel. Sad!

The hotel is incredibly tired. The pricing well above its standards. It’s from the 1980s. Very dusty, everything looks dusty and worn out. Needs a massive make over. Hardy anyone there. Not surprise when you can stop at hotels nearby for the same money but a much higher standard.

A beautiful location. I upgraded to an ocean view room and did not regret it. Gorgeous grounds. Lots of birds, butterflies and even the odd monkey or two from time to time. Very quiet and peaceful Will definitely return. The only negative was breakfast. Beans, mushrooms and fried potatoes everyday. Thank goodness they had an egg station so i was able to mix things up a bit.

I had high expectations for this hotel, considering the price we paid and its five-star rating, but unfortunately, it fell far short of expectations. The room we initially booked was in poor condition—no hot water, no iron, dim lighting, and the electricity would cut off multiple times a day for a few minutes. Hoping for a better experience, we decided to upgrade to a more expensive room, but it made no difference as the same issues persisted. The breakfast was another letdown. The selection was very limited and repetitive, with the same options every day. On several occasions, the eggs were undercooked, and food would run out quickly, leaving us with even fewer choices. This hotel does not meet the standards of a five-star establishment; in fact, it barely compares to a three-star. I would not recommend staying here, as it’s simply not worth the money or the frustration.
