🏨 Accommodation

Bakotu

hotel

The Bakotu is the epitome of best-of-both – it’s got a central, close-to-the-beach position, but is also right by a popular bird-watching spot. This hotel’s set on the edge of an 18-hole golf course and a lagoon. It’s right in the heart of Kotu, too, so you’ve got a market, restaurants and the beach just across the road. It's adults-focused, so things are nice and peaceful. Nature lovers will be in their element here. After all, it’s British naturalist Chris Packham’s first choice when staying in The Gambia. There's a viewing platform, which looks across Kotu’s creek, and you can see loads of birds and even a giant tortoise in the grounds.
