"It is not where it says on the map. I turned up expecting to be in actual Banjul but I was somewhere miles away. They didn't have any rooms even though I was booked in. Took me to another place that was nicer but again, not in the location it said. "

"We loved our stay at this hotel. The staff was hospitable and very helpful. Especially the young lady that worked at the reception desk. The free breakfast was "made to order", and it was great. The short down hill walk to the beach was amazing. Great "Bang for the Buck", for the price, I couldn't ask for more! "

"Misleading information about the rooms available to book on Expedia: Room listed with shower but there was no shower. BUT a room with private bath was offered at a more expensive price upon arrival (BAIT & SWITCH).
ROOMS WITHOUT SHOWERS have access to a community bathroom facility BUT The toilet located across from the room did not work and one must go to the other end of the hall for the toilet. The shower st the end of yhe hall does not have hot water. Leaving one working toilet for 3 rooms....

"A Gem; construction at Kalimba so they rebooked us at the adjacent Kamara resort. Great property: aircon nice and cold, good breakfast offering, tasty food at restaurant. Front desk staff helped in arranging a driver to visit monkey park, crocodile pools, city tour, and car to airport. Would love to go back. Only nit I have is provided toiletries were skimpy"

"Loved the hotel staff are brilliant and rooms are always nice but the major issue is the street outside hotel ..the hassle you get trying to walk down the road is like nothing I have experienced before ..many other guests say they same ..that put us off the hotel for our trip next time..but apart from that a amazing hotel "
"Quite a nice place for the price. Big room with a balcony, good restaurant, minutes from the beach. Different types of outlets in the room so you don’t need a converter. Male staff members trying to chat you up are very annoying, so maybe not the most ideal for solo female travelers. "
"The Deluxe Bungalow was absolutely perfect for our needs and everything within it worked flawlessly. Sarah kept the bungalow spotlessly clean throughout our entire stay.
Incredible Staff Service
The staff were all nothing short of amazing. When we unexpectedly became ill during our visit, one of the incredible team members came directly to the bungalow, took our shopping list, and went to the supermarket for us. This act of kindness speaks volumes. I sincerely wish I could recall his name—that's what I mean when I say the staff at this hotel are truly exceptional! They treated every guest with the same level of outstanding care and consideration.
A Perfect Getaway
We will definitely be returning next year and planning a longer stay. My birthday trip was simply amazing. One final, but important, note: the air conditioning in the bedroom bungalow was perfect and, even better, was included in the price.
See you next year, Palma Rima Hotel!"
"We were really pleased to stay at this property.
The room was large with amazing ocean views, great to sleep with the sound of the ocean in the background. The pool is a good size, and the pool deck and outdoor seating areas share the same views. Food was really good throughout, we especially enjoyed the Chicken Domoda and Chicken Yassa that we had for lunch.
A late check-out was easily arranged and suited our evening flight back to the UK.
Hotel is in a very quiet area surrounded by diplomatic missions which we appreciated. Tourist areas like Banjul and Senegambia are a short taxi ride, and there's a tourist market about 10 minutes walk away."
