"We had to move on with our adventure"

"TendinKoto Lodge was an absolute dream. Oliver and his wife Helen were extraordinary hosts , thoughtful, intuitive, and effortlessly warm. It truly felt like five-star service while remaining deeply relaxed and personal. The pool is beautiful, the food exceptional, the dogs utterly charming, and the atmosphere incredibly peaceful. What made it so special was the perfect balance: being left completely to our own devices, yet always feeling that anything we needed was immediately there, without ever having to ask. It was the perfect place to land in The Gambia — grounding, restorative, and memorable in the very best way. We left feeling nourished, rested, and already longing to return. Thank you for creating such a special place."

"Although a little difficult to find, was worth the effort. More comfortable and well fitted out than I had a right to expect. Although not the largest had the most comfortable bed I slept in Gambia and a lovely bathroom, places for clothes, table, chest of drawers etc. A lovely pool and within walking distance of a typical Gambian village. Host Oliver and Helen very friendly and helpful and accommodated everybodies culinary preferences. The best place I stayed in Gambia. a very quiet and restful place."

"Can't think of anything."

"Accomodation was excellent exceeding expectations.Food was well prepared and hosts went out of their way to probide us with a good time.Internet was the best ive experienced in The Gambia."

"Not Applicable"

"I spent my first four days in Gambia with Helen and Oliver at Tendinkoto Lodge. Oliver picked me up from the airport, greeted me with a cold bottle of water, and took care of buying a SIM card and exchanging money. The Tendinkoto Lodge is very spacious and, with its many trees, resembles a park. The generous breakfast and excellent dinner were enjoyed at a table with other friendly guests. This led to some very interesting and entertaining conversations, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Not to mention the lodge's fantastic amenities, such as, very good beds with superb mattresses and high-quality bed linen and towels + fast internet, the lovely pool, and the warm hospitality. With Helen and Oliver, I felt like I was visiting good friends. For independent travelers in Gambia, it is possibly one of the best places to stay. I hope to return soon."

"Beautifully organised and managed, very clean. Helen and Oliver were both lovely and helpful. Helen is a great cook and we enjoyed some gambian food."

"We loved every minute of it."

"The on-site restaurant exceeded my expectations. Every meal was freshly prepared with local ingredients, and the flavors were simply outstanding! Whether it was breakfast, lunch, or dinner, the quality and presentation were top-notch. Oliver and Helen are lovely hosts and staff is also superb friendly. My gf and me booked for two nights, but liked it so much, that we stayed 6 nights longer. Best lodge in Sanyang, for sure!"

"All was wonderful..."

"We had an incredible stay! Helen, Oliver and their staff couldn't do enough for us and were excellent company. The room was perfect with a large bathroom. Very comfortable and big bed, fridge, tea and coffee making facilities in the room and a lovely patio to relax. We enjoyed the communal banterbar, where we had some interesting meal times with excellent food, made by both Helen and Oliver. It was also great to have the use of 2 decent bikes during our stay We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Tendinkoto and will hopefully visit the lodge again. Thank you to all."
