Sehr gutes Essen, insbesondere wenn man Meeresfrüchte gerne ist, die jeden Tag Teil des All Inclusive Buffets waren! Aber auch à la Carte war das Essen exzellent. Die Lage direkt am Strand ist ideal und das Personal sehr freundlich. Hervorheben möchte ich auch noch die sehr bequemen Betten.
Leider hat der beim Hotel gebuchte Transfer von Flughafen nicht geklappt. Das habe ich aber bereits im Hotel direkt adressiert.

Food was good, the layout of the hotel was good and spacious and seating was comfortable. The beds were very comfortable. The whole experience was very relaxing and enjoyable.
I had an upset stomach for 5 days and we only ate food and drank at the hotel. We paid for a private pool with a sea view which was dirty and full of rubbish from the trees and beach. The weather was windy while we were there but no attempt was made to try and clean the pool.

Felt very safe and secure at this property, the staff were friendly and helpful. Special mention goes out to Manager, Modu and his team, who worked expeditiously to deal with any concerns raised.
All inclusive package meant that sometimes the dinner served was a bit bland. I preferred the local dishes which were very flavourful. There is the option to order a la Carte in sister restaurant.

It is really hot in the lobby area not even a fan there. The breakfast was way too crowded. You have to be in line waiting for a lot of stuff. There is also no free late checkout even just for 1-2 hours. They will charge you hourly.

Fantastic property, amazing staff, vibrant and we liked the themed nights !
The cakes weren’t good at all, the mashed potatoes could use some more butter. Other than that everything was good.

Layout of resort was very interesting . Never saw one like this before.
Tv was almost unwatchable. The network was not good, although for the most part, the wifi worked even at the private beach.

Very nice location right on the beach. The staff were very friendly and helpful. When the room card would not work one morning the lady cleaning the rooms immediately took the card to the front desk and got a replacement. The restaurant on the beach was really nice. Nice size swimming pool and long stretch beach for walking. Good choice at breakfast.
Nothing that comes to mind.

I think a big cleaning should be done. Especially for the walls, windows, floors and balconies in the rooms and outside

the pool
The cleanliness of the hotel is not good. At first sight it looks nice and clean but the walls, floors, windows and balconies are not clean at all, inside and outside.
I didn't find the food good at all, we ended up having only pizza and soft drinks.
The beach should be cleaned. The all inclusive package is not interesting at all; only some dishes from the menu are included in the all inclusive package and for dessert only the breakfast cake. For any other choice you have to pay.

Everything is excellent. The wifi is really good compared to the other locations that I tried in the area. The rooms are very spacious, comfortable, quiet and all the equipment works. My colleague's AC was not working and staff immediately sent technicians who worked a couple of hours to fix it properly. The restaurants/bars are excellent, both buffet and beach bar. The staff is helpful and responsive.
It is a bit on the pricey side but you won't have any issue.

Loved the layout. Friendly service. I booked my initial reservation online and when I showed up they didn't have anymore rooms available, so I was turned away. I rebooked for a few days later. I enjoyed my stay, but I thought the walls were very dirty for this level of hotel. Everything else was good. Nice menu offerings for both dinner and breakfast.

I had a lovely stay at Tamala all the staff were so friendly even down to the staff that cleaned our room. Entertainment at this hotel I give a 5* you just can't be bored at this hotel. They play excellent music! Lots of restaurants/clubs is nearby and taxi stand is right out side hotel.
Check out envy club and there is a restaurant next door very plush abit pricey but food is good. I could say so much more!
If you want a nice stay in Gambia, stay at Tamala. we booked the swim up pool room facing the pool side you can see all entertainments that go on best view I would say.
Big thanks to all the staff down to the managers for making our stay Memorable.
Big thanks to Sally she works In the shop in reception.
Only thing for me is the rooms can do with a little TLC a touch of paint.

Without the staff and the sun this resort is a cattle market.....so the staff are lovely
The food is disgusting, they roll over there leftovers from the night before, who has chow mein and roast potatoes for breakfast? And the food is always cold breakfast is basically eggs and beans, coffee is a nightmare....the rooms are a mess paint splashed everywhere, if they clean your room its just surface cleaning no bleach anywhere, the bed is two foam blocks with a topper so you sweat all night, yes they have mosquito nets but there filthy with insects dead from god knows when!! I stripped my bed myself so they would change it, the quilt underneath was covered in blood, im in menopause and haven't bled for 10 years, so i know it wasnt me?! After complaining they didn't change it?
The towels are used for the beach and our personal use and worn out with frayed edges stiff as a board and make you feel lousy, the water constantly goes off and is constantly cold, be careful with the bbqs the meat hangs in the sun all day and the rest of the terrines filled with food have 1 tealight candle keeping it warm supposedly, hence the Banjul belly.....me and my party had it 3 times.....these events are also NOT incuded in the packages they provide, so you have to pay extra every time......the beautiful swimming pool that no one is ever in, because its too cold , and full of chemicals that made my eyes sore for 3 days, also.....be very aware of the payments on arrival as the exchange rate tends to make it a bit more in price for your holiday....clever ha?!
I would NOT recommend this resort to anyone, it needs health and safety investigations regarding the food and cleanliness, and abta should investigate the way there ripping us all off.......fuming, disappointed 😞
