We have recently returned home from a 10 night stay at Hibiscus House. It was our second visit. We enjoyed it so much the first time we just had to go back.
So glad we did. We had a lovely relaxing time with perfect weather.
As always Sarah and the team looked after us very well. The room was perfect and we had a pool just outside. As there are two pools we had virtually exclusive use of ours for the whole stay.
For us, this is the perfect place to stay in The Gambia. It is very comfortable with lovely food cooked by excellent local chefs. The setting feels natural with lots of birdlife. All this is set amongst a true African village.

Well looked after and very relaxed.

What a hidden gem. Large trees surround the pools where the bird life is amazing.  Rooms were clean and large.  Staff were lovely and helpful. There was a band one night in the week who were very good. The food was excellent and local cuisine.  We would definitely recommend.

A hidden gem

Quite simply, we just loved it. Relax
ed and such a friendly ambience, great staff and food
 Sarah is attentive to your needs and wants and easily advised and arranged really interesting activities for us.
It was a fabulous start to a nearly 3 weeks stay in Hidden Gambia.
We will definitely return.

Great stay

We stayed at the whitehouse. The people working there was so lovely and kind and made us feel welcome. The garden was beautiful and house was stunning!
The pool was aout of order for most of our stay, but they worked really hard to fix it. And it was a stunning view from the rooftop :)

White house (a nice place to stay)

Great place with great service. Nice rooms, nice pool and the best chicken sandwich. We were around 20 guests staying here at the same time. Attending a wedding and enjoying vacation together. Thank you

Thumbs up!!

I stayed at Hibiscus House(HH) for 6 days while on business in the area.  My 21 year old daughter was with me and stayed at the hotel during the days, studying for her nursing boards.  HH was the best of the places we stayed:
Pros:  STAFF!! Lamin, Cora, and the day and night cooks.  All the staff were great.  Compared to 2 other hotels, the staff at HH were the most respectful - we later found that staff in other resorts/hotels would not leave my daughter alone, making her feel very uncomfortable. The food is better than any of the beachfront restaurants - it was the best we had during our 10 day stay in various parts of Gambia.  Fish Yassa and Sticky lime/chili Chicken were our favorites.  A great mix of Gambian/European cuisine, always super fresh salads and fruit.  The cook would make anything we asked for for dinner, as long as he had the ingredients.  I can't say enough about the quality and variety (even though it was off-season and we were the only guests).  The grounds are absolutely beautiful, well kept, and clean.  Joe (shepherd/gambian mix, hotel dog) was also the best!
Con: The roads leading into the the hotel area are completely dug up.  Some drivers had trouble getting through and it made it difficult to walk to the beach or main road.

Excellent stay at Hibiscus House

Hibiscus House was a beautiful oasis in Gambia after travelling. We booked 2 nights then 2 more then 2 more we had to tear ourselves away. The staff were amazing and attentive without being in the slightest bit overbearing. Very helpful with advice on travelling on local buses, shared taxis which we followed successfully. Our room was welcoming and very comfortable. The gardens are well maintained and the pool delightful. The food is fabulous & you can select African dishes if you wish - I would recommend these they were delicious! Whilst we were there it had attracted a eclectic mix of guests who were wonderful to meet & share experiences. Sarah the owner’s pride in her staff and wanting guests to have the best experience of The Gambia & her accommodation was evident. We have been fortunate to stay in many different places on our travels over the years- Hibiscus House is special!

Hibiscus House is somewhere special!

Stayed here early April 2023 for 4 days. Lovely owner & exceptional place. Especially the food (breakfast and dinner) is amazing. About 15mins walk to the beach. Many tourist spots reachable by public transportation. Really liked it here-like a family.

Excellent experience 

Hibiscus House makes you welcome and at home from the very outset. The staff are attentive, friendly and lend a strong community ambience. The facilities are comfortable, functional and there is plenty of space to spread out and relax. The food quality is very good with excellent local fish always prepared. Hibiscus House is ideally located within easy reach of both beach and town sights. We enjoyed an excellent day trip with a gentle boat tour of river wetlands, mangrove and a secluded beach. We thoroughly recommend this fine lodge stay. 

Perfect relaxation in a welcoming setting.

We went for dinner and the food was incredible. I have tried local food but this was great quality. The staff (Lamin) were so friendly, attentive and relaxed. The atmosphere was perfect and they had a great chill band on Thursday who filled the air with a mix of music and covers.

All in all brilliant.

Super friendly, relaxed and no need for the beach nearby!
