Your Destination —
Visitors keen to experience West African rural culture may head off the beaten track and up-country to simple, traditional villages, or why not spend a lazy day on the River Gambia?
Coco Ocean Resort & Spa occupies an enviable position on a wide stretch of unspoilt beach, next to Bijilo Forest Park Nature Reserve, famous for its green vervet and red colobus monkeys.
Although there is little activity directly outside the hotel to spoil the peace and tranquillity, a 20-minute walk along the sandy beach, or a short taxi ride, will bring you to the resort of Kololi with its wide selection of bars and restaurants.
Coco Ocean Resort & Spa 5* —
As one of the most luxurious hotels in The Gambia, and arguably the most striking, Coco Ocean Resort & Spa has established itself as the place to stay for celebrities and discerning holidaymakers looking for elegance and exquisite surroundings. It is perfect for any special occasion, and offers excellent value for money compared with spa hotels internationally - and the beachfront location is hard to beat.
While for many guests the main attraction of Coco Ocean Resort & Spa is the fantastic spa facility, its stunning location on an unspoilt stretch of beach just 2.5 km from the lively resort of Kololi, and the excellent levels of service and cuisine make this much more than simply a spa hotel. The Moroccan-inspired architecture and décor, featuring high ceilings and domes, have been created to keep the buildings cool as well as producing an elegant design and maximise the use of natural light.
