Golden Beach Hotel

I stayed here in November and u get what you pay for I found it to be a great budget hotel the staff are all lovely and extremely helpful the pool area is very nice and kept very clean food was also nice the rooms are a little dated but who goes on holiday to stay in the room I would highly reccomend this place

I loved the hotel! The location is perfect! The staff are wonderful and helpful and extremely friendly. The food is excellent! Some local drummers played on the grounds it was so good. I will be returning to this hotel as soon as I can. Thank you Golden Sands Abaraca baci

Been there before, hotel is basic but good value and the staff are really friendly and helpful

Great experience for the price. I could hear the ocean from mybed as I slept. All the staff were kind. The power and water would go out, but its Gambia, the people who left such negative reviews should relax. For the price your paying, its a great experience, and I would stay again. Only point to make is there is no mosquito net and many mosquitos, so make sure youre on malaria prophylaxis before hand. Felt the need to review which I never do, because the other reviews here didnt reflect the great experience I had.

Top staff, top food, top service and very safe, all in all a top hotel for the price, would stay again, BRAVO.

The check in took some time as there was only one person doing the check in. Other staff were in the area but did not come forward

This place is fantastic value, and staff pleasant. There's not much in immediate area, not a problem in daytime, beach walks amazing, but not so good at night.  Sennegambia Strip a bit seedy at night, though music good. Found bed a bit itchy, and mosquitoes enthusiastic.  Nice to have tv with news channel in English.

Pool nice and clean , pool attendant was greatThe shops on site was abs and Abby where fantastic, as were the staffFelt really welcomed ,the management was also extremely helpful.Does need a bit of refurbishment... and was in working progress

When traveling to Gambia you should not expect high standards. The country is poor. This hotel was nice and the AC worked great which was the most important thing for me. There was not a lot of people traffic and easy access to the beach. Easy access to catch local taxis to Senegambia.

Hotel is adequate but tired, not a lot of facilities. Wouldn't recommend for families but for a basic hotel it serves its purpose. Cheap holiday. Lots of wild life around and good access to the beaches.

Looking for a good value hotel?

Nice place for couple and singles.

not long back from here.
my personal opinion is that its ok.... 
positives:-
* its location, its right on the beach.
* beautiful views.
* cleaners dont go in your room unless you leave your key at reception and actually ask for your room to be cleaned.
* local to other restaurants ( out onto the main road, turn left and walk about 100 yards. you will find lords restaurant. lovely environment, food and very welcoming staff.)

negatives:-
* the whole premises could do with being improved. It does look like its being run into the ground.
* shower was a few drips of cold water at best
* door locks need replacing.
* some doors need replacing.
* very limited menu, chicken and chips or fish and chips was the option for the whole week we was there.
* breakfast, crusty bread with rubbery processed cheese, cucumber and tomato slices.
* buying even a bottle of water from them could be difficult and seemed a hassle for them.
* gift shop only open once in the whole week we was there.
* pool bar and restaurant was closed and crawling with ants. ( it looked like it hadnt been open for a long long time)
* no entertainment in an evening (some may like this) (but if entertainment is something you want then it is easy to find elsewhere).
* the room we were allocated was definately not the one we booked and paid for. they wouldnt or couldnt change our room despite the hotel appearing to mainly empty.
* the wifi that they advertise is in reception only and even then the staff appeared reluctant to give out the password to be able to connect.

please bear in mind i always stay in 3* and definately not a travel snob and yes i understand its not as easy out there to do the work as it is back home but i found it such a shame that it looks like its being left to ruin. it could be a little gem of a hotel if only the owners actually looked like they cared. 
it hasnt put us off going back to gambia but i will be looking for alternative accommodation in the future.
