You can find silence and solitude on the edge

of sustainable living and recycling such as shared shower

Review:
Mandina is a 5 star luxury escape in a virtually untouched
wilderness surrounded by clean riverine eco-systems, palm
forest, mangroves, hardwood trees and scrub savannah. Swim
in amongst the trees, dine in a top-tier restaurant and sleep
in the bush or by a tributary listening to the calls of the
wild. There are specially tailored canoe excursions and foot
treks, evening musical dance entertainment as well as a chance
to see artisans at work and buy their handy-craft. Mandina
uses solar to power the lights and for hot water. |

Review:
Omakan is a boutique hotel escape, 20 minutes from the airport
and 10 minutes from the bustling urban town of Serrekunda.
Once inside you soon realise that the accommodation is truly
a retreat, no need to get out and about if you don't want
to. Relax and unwind in the large garden sanctuary or sunbathe
on wooden deckchairs by the pool and take in the beauty of
the place. |

Review:
Woulaba, in Medina Salaam, is very humble accommodation with
a double bed per bedroom. It's a good choice if you are on
a tight budget and want a fairly decent getaway not too far
from the coast. Drinking water is from a well so do bring
along your own bottled water of a water filter / sterilization
tablets. |
