Beginning with the pick-up service at the airport upon our arrival until facilitation of our departure towards Senegal everything was perfectly organized by the host Jerreh. Late check-out was no problem at all. Breakfast and dinner at the restaurant terrace just 50 m next to the ocean surf was unique. The endless beach in front of the premises was inviting to long walks until the Senegalese border.

We had an amazing stay at little’s. The rooms are in a beautiful garden full of gorgeous plants and birds. The beach is only a short walk away. Dinner was delicious and rooms are very comfortable and clean. On top of that, Little’s hospitality made us feel really comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.

I stayed at Bosofet for a week. The breakfast was very nice. The hosts asked what I like for breakfast and met my needs in detail. I like to start the morning with a cup of tea and every morning, when I came out to my veranda, there was a flask with hot tea ready for me. As I was enjoying my tea, overlooking the sea, did a generous fruit plate arrive. Soon after that a plate with fresh bread, Spanish omelette and coffee. This breakfast kept me going for many hours. You can also buy lunch and dinner at Bosofet, which I did many times. Fresh fish from the nearby fish market, homemade chips, potatoes, rice, vegetables and nice sauces. I ate so well the whole week and was never ill, despite this being my first time in Africa, which proves that their food hygiene is good. This lodge is the last of a few lodges along a beach road. It makes it a secluded paradise beach with beautiful plants and several places so sit under, with sofas, sunbeds and parasols. The sandy beach and the sea is lovely, I swam every day. If you want company, then stroll over to the bar and meet other people. They can also inform you of things that are happening in the local area. The people who are running this lodge are very hospitable and welcoming. They are sensitive to your needs and will do their best to meet them. If you want to go somewhere you just ask them to organise a taxi for you, which helps you to feel safe. I truly recommend a stay at Bosofet Beach and Creek Lodge. Perhaps you have heard the saying “The smiling coast of Africa”? Well – it’s true – I smiled the whole week! And I am going back this June-August. Staying there for almost six weeks!

This is a brilliant place to stay, the bungalows are clean, beds comfy breakfast is cooked to order and huge. The people working at the hotel are so welcoming and helpful, they quickly become friends. They arranged an airport transfer which was great value and very smooth. Recommend Kinkiliba to anyone to stay and relax or as a base to arrange trips. Thank you very much and see you next time!

I enjoyed here one of the best experiences during my trip through the Gambia. It was exactly what I wanted for my last days, a place where you can enjoy the quiet environment, just the sound of birds around you. Malick, the host, took great care of me, he was always around and available, bringing me fruits and nuts while I was reading by the terrace. I was very lucky to share a unique experience with them, as it was Sona's birthday and we had lunch together with Emilie as well, thank you so much for that, and for letting me stay in the room until late in the afternoon, as my flight was leaving very late in the evening. If I ever manage to visit this country again I will for sure visit this lodge again.

    It was lovely to meet other travellers at the bar and restaurant. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the food was good. The beach is very close, and outside the bar is a beautiful area to relax .

    Very nice and helpful owner, round houses well apart from each other in a well kept garden with good paths. The very quiet beautiful beach and sea just next to the garden by a private gate. Plentiful breakfast and meals of your choice in a large round decorative eating area. Everywhere kept very tidy. Peaceful surroundings with the colourful birds.

    The manager of the lodge are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast and the meal is wonderfull. The beach is great. It was usefull that we could rent some bikes. The prices were fine. To sleep in a round house was a good experience. The houses have a private situation in a nice surrounding.
