This place suits me perfectly with free Wi-Fi, outdoor swimming pool, and 24-hour reception. On my first stay, the staff helped me find dining options. I highly recommend trying the Gambian juice. I'm definitely coming back for a holiday.

The tranquil gardens and vibrant atmosphere made mornings special, while the warm welcome from the staff truly felt familial. Evening live music added to the charm of our stay, making it memorable.

A hidden gem of tranquility

My stay at Hibiscus House was a dream, filled with the sounds of chirping birds and the aroma of freshly cooked meals. The warm and welcoming staff made every moment memorable, truly creating a home away from home. Waking up to the delightful fruits and warm breads at breakfast set a lovely tone for the day, while the surrounding gardens and pools provided the perfect space to unwind and soak in nature's beauty. Exploring the nearby town of Brufut felt safe and enriching, connecting us with the local culture.

While the experience was wonderful, the service was notably slow at times, which is typical of the relaxed pace in Gambia. As we were often the only guests, it took a bit longer to receive attention, but it was manageable and never spoiled our enjoyment of the relaxing atmosphere.

The two swimming pools offer a refreshing escape, with plenty of sun beds available, making it easy to relax without the usual towel wars. The location in a tranquil village allows for peaceful mornings filled with bird songs, enhancing the overall serene vibe of the stay.

The pool felt quite cold and smaller than expected, limiting enjoyment for those looking to swim. Getting to nearby amenities like supermarkets and popular tourist spots requires a bit of a trek on foot, and taxi availability can be hit or miss, which can be a hassle especially in the slow pace of the area. A few maintenance issues around the property, like plumbing in some rooms and lack of privacy from light curtains, could be addressed to enhance comfort during the stay.

The staff were incredibly attentive, always making sure

we had everything we needed without being intrusive. The gardens were a beautiful mix of colors and wildlife, making every breakfast feel enchanting. The only downside was the bathroom's need for modernization, which could have added to the overall experience.

Hibiscus House provided a delightful stay. The room, a Double Room with Pool View, was spacious and clean with a refrigerator and a hot pot, which made my mornings easy. I loved the view of the pool surrounded by lush gardens. The staff, particularly Buba, were welcoming and eager to provide recommendations for local attractions. The food stood out with a delicious mix of African dishes. I especially enjoyed the daily specials. a few areas did need attention. The toilet wasn't securely attached to the floor, which made it unstable. There were also some maintenance issues with a few broken sunbeds and an occasional sighting of cockroaches. Despite these inconveniences, the vibrant atmosphere and commitment from the staff made the stay enjoyable.

Try to request a room away from the dog area if you're not a dog lover. the staff is very accommodating.

Outstanding cocktails and great value

Staying at this charming spot with 20 family members felt like a delightful retreat in lush gardens filled with mango trees and hibiscus flowers. The staff truly understood hospitality, making every meal a treat, especially the freshly cooked dishes that were a hit with everyone.

For dads, it would be great to have more reliable bathroom facilities.

hibiscus house is like a lil paradise man, pools and gardens everywhere super chill vibe! breakfast is da bomb with fresh fruits and pancakes everyday, and the staff are super nice, they make u feel right at home. the rooms are comfy and spacious, just perfect for relaxing after a day exploring brufut. really loved the quiet atmosphere and local charm—perfect for unwinding! if ur lookin to get away from crazy tourist spots, this is da place!

but the bathroom could use some updates, and saw a few bugs which was kinda off-putting.
