The 1-Bedroom Apartment: Best for Couples, Solo Travelers & Short Business Trips


Our standard one-bedroom apartment is built around comfort without excess. You get:

  • A queen-size bed in a separate bedroom

  • A private bathroom with hairdryer

  • A fully equipped kitchen (oven, microwave, fridge)

  • Air conditioning throughout

  • A private terrace with views of either the landscaped gardens or the Atlantic Ocean

  • High-speed Wi-Fi and Internet TV

This layout works well if you're traveling as a couple, coming solo for business or remote work, or just want a manageable space without paying for rooms you won't use. It's also the more budget-friendly option if you're weighing up costs for a longer stay.



The 2-Bedroom Apartment: Best for Families & Small Groups

If you're travelling with family, friends, or need a home office separate from your sleeping space, the 2-bedroom apartment gives you the room to spread out:

  • Two full bedrooms with a double bed or twin singles

  • Two bathrooms

  • A shared dining and living area with balcony

  • The same fully equipped kitchen and high-speed Wi-Fi as the 1-bedroom

  • Views of the landscaped gardens or the Atlantic Ocean

It's a popular choice for families on holiday, small groups splitting a longer-term rental, or anyone who wants a quiet, private retreat that still feels like a proper home rather than a hotel room.



What's Included Either Way

Whichever size you choose, every Seafront Residences apartment comes with:

  • Bills included — utilities, Wi-Fi, and cleaning in one price, so there are no surprise costs

  • Move-in-ready furnishing — no need to bring or buy furniture

  • Flexible length of stay — book anywhere from one day to one year, with better rates the longer you stay

  • Washing machine access for stays of one month or more



Making the Call

If it's just you or you and a partner, the 1-bedroom will comfortably cover everything you need. If you're arriving with kids, sharing with a friend, or want the flexibility of separate rooms, the 2-bedroom is worth the extra space.

Either way, you're a short walk from Bijilo Beach, minutes from the Senegambia strip, and right on Gambia's West Coast — so the real decision is just about how much room you want to come home to.
