The staff make the place so welcoming, and it's at the end of the beach furthest from the horrible fish factory so there's less smell. This is a really peaceful place with a good vibe, we're just sad to only have one night there before flying!

The rooms need a bit more finishing off but I'm sure they'll get there!

the location and atmosphere , the staff the simplicity

De losse, vriendelijke, gemoedelijke en familiale sfeer en zeer behulpzame medewerkers. Ver weg van de luxe resorts en de drukte. Het is een heel fijne plek voor een sober, alternatief verblijf als toerist in Gambia en veel contact met de lokale bevolking. De opstartende accommodatie moet nog verder uitgebouwd worden en kan op heel wat punten verbeterd worden, wat ze ook van plan zijn, stap voor stap. Ook aan de weg ernaartoe, de directe omgeving en het strand is er nog werk voor de (lokale) overheid.

Onduidelijke timing van het ontbijt, meestal véél te laat voor ons, een keer zelfs na 10u. De aanwezige medewerkers sliepen graag uit 😊. Geen vermelding of affichering van vraagprijzen voor lunch, dinner, dranken waardoor er op het einde van ons verblijf een beetje moest onderhandeld worden.

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!
