Review:
Mandina River Lodge has been uniquely tailored for
the sophisticated adventurer, looking for a first
class eco retreat. Four solar powered floating lodges
and one stilted house are nestled into the privacy
of the encompassing mangroves. Reached by elevated
walkways or by dug out canoe – paddled by your
own
‘man Friday’.
The lodges offer 180-degree views of the Mandina Bolong
(an idyllic tributary off the main river Gambia).
Each handcrafted wood lodge features a four-poster
carved bed fitted with crisp white linens. The en-suite
eco friendly bathroom with tiled shower, state of
the art composting toilets and solar heated water,
opens on to the mangroves for a truly unique bathing
experience. Fall asleep to the rhythmic sounds of
the bush and awake to the distant call of the
Muezzin
from the neighbouring Kembujeh village.
Mandina Lodges is set in 1,000 acres of virtual wilderness
away from shops and mod-cons.
Children allowed - close supervision is advised due
to the river.
Due to the accommodation's environmentally sensitive
location air-conditioners are absent altogether.
Take along enough personal toiletries as there are
no shops nearby.
Composting toilets are used in most suites to safeguard
the local water's purity.
Booked on a half-board basis.
There is no money exchange, make sure you have enough
of the local currency before your stay.
The accommodation is about 20 minutes drive from The
Gambia's main Banjul Airport. |
