The treehouse itself is beautiful!! Inside & out. Tastefully decorated, extremely comfortable bed, fridge & some utensils, kettle, cafetiere, tea etc. Stunning panoramic views of the ocean & surrounding gardens all from the comfort of your own private terrace. The people, well what can I say? Amazing, genuine, polite & so helpful!! Malick & his wonderful team, Sona, Noah & Babuka are on hand every hour of the day & night, bringing you food, drinks, cigarettes & fresh dates from the market. They went above & beyond. Malick is very special, a talented carpenter (he built the treehouse) & so professional in every way. Euro, the night security guard was very serious about our safety & made sure we were safe & sound through the night. Have to give a special mention to Markus, who is residing at the lodge. He helped us with anything & everything. His travel stories kept us entertained & amazed. Very inspiring!! Also need to mention Michael. He picked us up from the airport, told us a lot of information & also organised a wonderful day trip to the Makasutu Cultural Forest. We fell asleep every night listening to the incredible sounds of the ocean & woke every morning to the sounds of beautiful bird song. Truly paradise! The perfect holiday retreat for peace, relaxation & restoration. A few metres away from a stunning sandy beach, very swimable sea with only gentle waves. The beach itself is almost private, just a few local kids having fun in the water & cheekily asking for photographs. All locals are very friendly, even though life is hard for them. They appreciate any level of support, even if it is just a few bananas or a bracelet. I have to mention our neighbours at Black & White Beach Bar. Food is amazing, people are incredible. Mama & her team, special shout out to Lammey & Petra for making our stay so easy & relaxing. The next beach bar is Happy Corner.

We spent the last two nights of our stay in The Gambia here and loved every minute of it. It was the perfect end to our trip. The gardens, the sounds, the birds, the butterflies, the ocean so close. Wow. Fantastic. Our treehouse was perfect, like in a film. The staff are really friendly and the new cook on site, Modi, is 5 star. He cooked to order, served it in the treehouse and it was exquisite. We also really enjoyed chatting to him and finding out more about the country. Thank you for everything Modi, you really enriched our stay. I can highly recommend this gem of a place and if you stay here, you must try all the dishes on the menu. You can't eat better anywhere, even outside Gambia.

We loved everything at this lodge !! It was our best stay in Gambia and we were very sad to leave. Not only is the location stunning (directly at a beautiful and quite beach) but also the treehouse was amazing as well as the staff being so very nice and forthcoming. We will definitely come back to experience again the peace, tranquility and beauty of this place and its people. Special thanks to Malik who built this amazing place and the cook, who spoilt us with the delicious food. Even more beautiful than in the pictures !

The hotel is set in an exceptionally peaceful location, nestled in the stunning landscape of Gambia, right on “Paradise Beach.” The staff is exceptionally friendly and always willing to help. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and thoughtfully decorated with attention to detail. This is the perfect place to relax and unwind.

During our trip to The Gambia, we stayed at several hotels, but the Mansa Musso Treehouse Resort stood out as the best. The treehouse's unique location on the property offers absolute peace and tranquility, allowing guests to fully appreciate the natural beauty from its expansive terrace. Every morning, a sumptuous breakfast was freshly prepared and served on the terrace. The hotel staff were exceptionally friendly and courteous, making us feel as though we were staying with close friends. While the hotel does not have its own restaurant, the nearby “Black & White” restaurant on the beach offers incredibly delicious and reasonably priced meals. The restaurant also provides a free delivery service to the hotel, allowing guests to dine in the comfort of their own terrace. The nearest town, Sanyang, is easily accessible by local bus for just a few cents. We highly recommend this hotel, particularly for nature lovers, as it is a true gem. We will definitely return!
