Netter Aufenthalt

Kumba, die junge Frau vor Ort ist absolut top. Da gibt es gar nichts. Immer erreichbar, für alles eine Lösung, super freundliche, total gründlich - das könnte nicht besser sein und da sind fünf Sterne nicht genug. Die Räume sind groß und mit dem wichtigsten eingerichtet. Die Gegend ist super, zentral, sicher. Aber sonst würde ich nicht nochmal buchen. Das vierte Badezimmer ist ein Gästeklo ohne Duschvorrichtung. Damit nicht zu zählen. Die 2 Gartenstühle waren kaputt, dann wurden auf Nachfrage ganze 4 ersetzt, für 4 Doppelzimmer doch recht wenig. Es gab Reparaturbedarfe, die wohl bereits vor unserer Anreise bekannt waren, mir der Austausch dann noch als Großzügigkeit verkauft wurden. An Vorabend vom bezahlten und gebuchten Abreisetag konnte man von Seiten des Vermieters kaum erwarten, bis wir raus sind, weil schon die nächsten Gäste für die gleiche Nacht eingebucht waren. (Wir hatten den nächsten Tag mitgebucht, damit wir nicht um 11 Uhr früh das Haus verlassen müssen und den ganzen Nachmittag bleiben dürfen) Da war gar nicht in Erwägung gezogen, dass unsere Freunde vielleicht bleiben - ist mir sehr negativ aufgefallen. Angeblich steht in der Beschreibung, dass nach der 1. Woche das WLAN zahlungspflichtig ist. Ich habs immer noch nicht gefunden, wo das steht und finds bei der Preisgestaltung unpassend. Es gibt nur einen Schlüssel für Tor und Haustür, absolut unpraktisch.

Excellent stay and highly recommended

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Frank and Haddy's beautiful and spacious home. It really was home from home; spacious rooms and furnished well and a real sense of privacy with the gated walls. The house manager was on standby for any assistance and Frank was a call/email away. Frank's assistance before the trip gave us a comfort and reassurance that families with children really appreciate. I highly recommend the home for those who want a holiday but also a sense of peace and calm away from it all; a place to go to after a long day of activities in town or a long stay on the beach. We also enjoyed the neighborhood pool which again added to the all package holiday experience. We hope to return again soon, Pascal & Chinelo CHRISTIAN

Response from VrboOwner on 28 Mar, 2020
We were very pleased to have hosted Pascal and his family. They are certainly among our top three guests. Pascal is not only a man of integrity but also someone who is very responsible and with great communication skills. We would be honoured to host his family again and anyone else he recommends. Once again, we thank them for choosing to stay at ours.

A fantastic holiday home with loads of space and everything you need for your holiday!

Our recent stay at Frank and Haddy’s was AMAZING! Firstly, Aram, the housekeeper is a wonderful cook, if you don’t use this extra service you are definitely missing out. We are still missing her food, weeks later.. Frank is so considerate and was very accommodating of our needs. Such a pleasure to deal with and always easy to contact. We arrived late (near midnight) yet were greeted with a warm smile by Aram who then helped with all our luggage and made sure we were okay before she left. The house itself is huge and has such a warm homey feel. The beds are great, and the rooms are very bright and airy. The Kitchen was essential for us being a family of four and needing to cook daily. We managed very well considering it wasn’t our kitchen and had mostly everything we needed. The separate laundry with washing machine was also a necessity and didn’t disappoint, I was very happy with the washing machine and how much time I saved having it. Last but not least the power system Frank has installed is fantastic, we had power all the time with the back up system. The neighbor hood is quiet and friendly and very close to the small shops that sell most essentials. We often walked around the block and enjoyed the beautiful homes of the estate. We would highly recommend Frank and Haddy’s for your Gambian holiday, all we ask is for you to look after it as we will be definitely returning for our next trip! The Danzo’s

About the host

Hosted by Frank & Haddy's Villa + Back-up System + Q Cell Internet WiFi + Neighbor's pool

Host profile image
We are a simple family both working in the UK. Integrity and honesty is very high on our list. We love our holidays in The Gambia and hope you will love it too. This is our home so we hope you feel the love we share as a family during your stay.

Why they chose this property

Paradise Estate is often quiet and feel safe because of the security guards posted 24/7 at the gates. It has a park which includes a children's playground. There are local shops, a mini-market and pharmacy are all within 300 yards away from the vila.
The villa has a car which can rented at a reasonable price to avoid the hassle of moving around. Additional service like hiring of a local guide can be arranged. Lastly, Frank & Haddy, your hosts, are honest and decent people that will do everything they can to make their guests feel at home. So please free to ask questions, make suggestions, recommendations or even negotiate! Hence, I ask you "Why not this property?"

What makes this property unique

Our 4 by 4 can be rented at reasonable cost to ease your movement about for your holiday.
Neighbour's pool is also accessible to our guests.
There are also local taxis available at cheaper rates.
