Spent a week here at this lovely hotel. Rooms lovely and clean, air conditioning the best I've ever had, lovely and quiet. Fridge in room, lovely comfy beds. Breakfast delicious, fresh omelettes to order, bacon delicious, any kind of egg you like. Food could be hotter, but if you give it a stir, or pick the bit's over the heated candles you will dig out the hotter bit's. Not a huge buffet, but always something lovely to eat, lovely salad bar, what they have was tasty. Have to remember you are in a foreign country, West Africa, and you have to adapt to their way of living, no complaining, you are in a very poor country.........so you have to appreciate what they have to offer. Not the best beach I've come across, but we spent our time round the pool. Ok, so excursions...........we used the guy's in the orange shirts outside facing hotel, absolutely amazing, we used Babu, fantastic guy. Took us everywhere, just tell him what you want, and he'll sort it, very knowledgeable. Took us to safari in Senegal, ferry wasn't running so we went on small boat, and what an experience, we laughed all day. Walked with the lions, fabulous. Monkey forest amazing. Crocodile farm brilliant. We also did the home cooking experience and met Babu's family, wonderful people. Felt as safe as houses with Babu. A tip, take English money. We didn't, because I don't as a rule, carry cash around with me. Had a bit of an experience getting a large amount from bank, but Babu took us to large bank and got it sorted for us. You can only get so much out of the cash machine's per day. He was absolutely amazing, highly recommend him to look after you. Calypso restaurant is a MUST, so is the Indian across the road. We allso went down to Mr Bass, watched the football, great laugh with the locals, who are all Man Utd fans by the way, we support Liverpool, had plenty of fun banter with them. Grounds of the hotel are kept beautiful. Entertainment team are lovely, and really try hard to entertain, and do a brilliant job. They had entertainment probably every other night, all where great. If you like a game of pool, then the staff will lend their hand at giving you a bashing, they love joining in with you, and will give you plenty tips how to win. Every night we had plenty laughs round the bar area, everyone friendly, guests and staff alike. Red wine was lovely, sister said the white was too. Had a few shandy, which was very refreshing, as was the beer. Would I go back again, most definitely. Miss everyone at Ocean Bay and Babu, our guide and Sol, our taxi driver, thank you for taking such good care of us...........we'll be back!!!
