"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! "

"Yes, the pool is nice the staff were helpful and accommodating. I will be returning again hopefully soon. Look no where is perfect, if you want perfection then stay home. While here, i felt safe and welcomed. We had a shared bathroom but i never felt rushed. The TV works but limited channels but you have access to wifi so bring your own tablet. Sometimes the lights go out but they have a generator. There is a small store next door to purchase water. The neighborhood is friendly i never felt...

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Essau?
The best area to stay in Essau is typically within the main village of Essau itself, or in one of the nearby, more developed areas that offer better visitor amenities.

The village of Essau is the administrative centre for the Lower Niumi District and is located on the north bank of the Gambia River, directly opposite the capital, Banjul. It's a key transport hub, especially for those using the ferry crossing. The village has a local market and a few guesthouses, providing a glimpse into local life.

For travellers looking for a base to explore the North Bank region, staying in Essau offers convenience due to its ferry access. It's particularly good for those interested in local culture and history, as it's close to sites like Fort Bullen.

Couples or those seeking a more comfortable stay might consider properties slightly outside the immediate village centre that offer better facilities.
When is the best time to go to Essau?
The best time to visit Essau, North Bank, Gambia, is during the dry season, which runs from November to May.

This period offers consistently sunny weather with comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 25°C to 30°C. There's very little rainfall, making it ideal for exploring the area's natural beauty and cultural sites without interruption. The lower humidity also makes outdoor activities much more pleasant.

Couples looking for a relaxing getaway will appreciate the calm and predictable weather, great for enjoying the local markets and river excursions. The dry season allows for easy travel to nearby attractions like Fort James Island and the Kunta Kinteh Island UNESCO World Heritage site, accessible via a short ferry ride from Barra, just south of Essau.

For travellers interested in wildlife and birdwatching, the dry season is particularly good. The receding waters concentrate animals around remaining water sources, making them easier to spot.
