Great place to live. I've been impressed by how well-managed and hospitable the staff are. It felt like a home away from home. I truly enjoyed my stay there and would definitely recommend it to families and individuals looking for a secure and convenient place to stay with access to nearby amenities like restaurants and bars. It's a great option for those who prefer a private self-catering accommodation. Highly recommend it!

The property was really nice, I especially appreciated the balcony, bathroom and kitchen facilities. That said, what made our stay exceptional was the staff at Forestview. From the front desk, to the security, they were friendly, knowledgable and accomodating. The housekeeping staff were extremley hardworking and very, very thoughtful. They made our stay at Forestside unforgettable and I will definitely be making them my first choice of accomodation when visiting the Gambia in future. Best staff I've ever encountered.

The property is in a great location and easy to get to many dining options even without a car. The apt was well suited although the bed was not comfortable and response time for requests take quite a long time as it isn’t a hotel. The apt worked well for our extended stay. We enjoyed the pool, however it was closed a few times due to it being green, think they need more assistance with pool maintenance. We lost power many times but the generators kicked in quickly. We lost water a few times and a couple days there was no hot water or good pressure. We are used to that and made it work. We will stay again as overall the apt was well worth the value!

Vahva suositus!

Majoituimme perheen kanssa Forest View Apartmentsilla 3 viikon ajan ja olemme erittäin tyytyväisiä. Sijainti oli erinomainen: rauhallisen tien varrella, lyhyt matka rannalle ja kaupat lähellä. Huoneisto (kaksi makuuhuonetta ja keittiö) itsessään oli hyvin länsimaalainen ja huoneistosta löytyi kaikki tarvittava keittiön varustuksesta pyykkikoneeseen. Huoneiston terassi oli iso ja kalustettu. Allasalue oli siisti ja kaikki työntekijät ihania! Tulevilla reissuilla majoitumme ehdottomasti myös Forest View apartments:illa. Alabaraka bakeh!

This is my third time staying here this year. I really should buy one of the units. It's perfectly located at the end of the "strip" near the best bar, GTS, and restaurants, the Kololi Mini-Market and my friend Ms. Jallow is great, and the beach is just a short walk down the hill. A great beach.

Avoid….terrible customer service from Management

Nice apartment although a little ragged around the edges. Fairly clean but some bugs (it’s The Gambia!) No water one morning and very low water pressure on another meant two mornings couldn’t have a shower which was met with no real response from the staff. People around pool can be noisy at night which security don’t deal with. Large charge for a 4 hour late checkout for a returning customer who stayed nearly 2 weeks shows their customer service know how! Manager made it very clear he really doesn’t care! Quoting rules and terms at you before just walking away without resolution All in all, it’s an ok place but the lack of CS means unlikely to return.

Fint opphold - litt småting

Et fint leilighetshotell. Litt missvisende mht. På fasiliteter da leiligheten ikke var i tilknytning basseng samt at bassenget holdt stengt på ubestemt tid. Renhold kom ikke som avtalt og uteble for hele oppholdet. Bodde der 7 netter. Sikkerheten var ivaretatt. Man følte seg trygg og velkommen

Good value

Nice location about 100m from the strip. Lots of bars, restaurants etc. Apartment is clean, tidy and in a good state of repair. I did not use their internet so cannot comment on this but it was present. Check in was a bit messed up due to lack of comms to reception but all sorted in the end. Likely to use again and for the price much better value then local hotels.
