Review:
As you approach the
Bijilo Beach Hotel road entrance from the Bertil
Harding Highway (Kombo Coastal Road) you are
immediately struck by the retreat's relative
seclusion and by how unimposing the main entrance
is. However, you are soon impressed as you pass
through the small reception and out onto the
main complex. To your left and right are grand,
imposing room blocks offering unsurpassed vistas
of the Atlantic beach and ocean. The beach area
itself is clean and wide with a variety of rhun
palms and coconut trees at the front end.
There is a fairly large, clean, irregularly
shaped swimming pool at the centre of the sloping
lawns and walkways. There is no lack of sunbathing
terraces whether you choose to use a deckchair
on the paved areas or sun loungers on the cool
grass.
The beach side Ocean Bay restaurant is highly
recommended. For starters it is semi-enclosed
and there are large louvered windows on the
ocean side allowing you plenty of sea breezes
as you enjoy a full and wide menu which is generous
with seafood dishes. There is also the Clay
Roof Restaurant with its intimate atmosphere
overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and serving a
wide variety of tasty international cuisine
and Gambian specials. Vegetarian options are
available on request.
The accommodation suites are well furnished,
clean as well as providing all the facilities
you would expect from a beach hotel in Banjul.
The staff are particularly attentive your every
requirement, even willing to do small errands
for you so you don't have to disrupt any minute
of your peaceful, relaxing vacation. The Bijilo
area itself is situated away from the tourist
hotspot of Kololi (less than 7 minutes drive)
so there is very little night life or other
amenities nearby. This however, is easily overcome
as there are green tourist taxis parked within
the hotel's car park and their rates are published
at the reception desk. The apartment rooms at
Bijilo Beach Hotel are especially suited for
families. |
